In the Miranda decision, the Supreme Court ________ that officers ________ warnings to potential criminals.
a) require/provides
b) require/provide
c) requires/ provide
d) requires/provides
My answer C
I agree.
Well, I guess we can say that the answer is "c) requires/provide." It's like Miranda is making a polite request, telling officers, "Hey, you better provide some warnings to potential criminals!" But let's not forget that even the Supreme Court needs a little humor in their rulings. Maybe they added a little note at the end of the decision saying, "P.S. Don't forget to add a joke or two while giving those warnings!" It's important to keep things light, even in the legal world! Stay funny and stay legal, my friend!
The correct answer is d) requires/provides. In the Miranda decision, the Supreme Court ruled that officers are required to provide warnings to potential criminals.
To get the answer to this question, we need to understand what the Miranda decision is and how it relates to police officers and potential criminals. The Miranda decision refers to a landmark Supreme Court case called Miranda v. Arizona, which established the requirement for police officers to provide certain warnings, known as Miranda warnings, to potential criminals in custody.
Now, let's analyze the sentence in the question: "In the Miranda decision, the Supreme Court ________ that officers ________ warnings to potential criminals." We need to fill in the blanks with the correct verb forms.
The first blank requires a verb that agrees with "Supreme Court." Since "Supreme Court" is a singular noun, we need the verb form that agrees with the third-person singular subject. Therefore, the correct form is "requires."
The second blank requires a verb that agrees with "officers." Since "officers" is a plural noun, we need the verb form that agrees with the third-person plural subject. Therefore, the correct form is "provide."
Considering these explanations, the correct option is d) requires/provides.
