To identify the sentence in which the bolded verb does not agree with its subject, we need to examine the subject-verb agreement in each sentence.
Sentence C is the correct answer because the subject "neither of the boys" is singular, so the verb should be "is" instead of "are". Therefore, the correct sentence would be "Neither of the boys is excited about playing football."
In sentence D, the subject "One of the girls" is singular, so the verb "are" does not agree with it. It should be "One of the girls is going to enter the singing contest."
So, the correct answers are C and D.
