To determine the correct subject-verb agreement, you should look at the number of the subject noun and ensure that the verb matches in number (singular or plural).
In the given sentences:
1. "The cattle in the field is huge!" - This is incorrect because "cattle" refers to multiple animals, so the verb should be plural. The correct form should be "The cattle in the field are huge!" to maintain subject-verb agreement.
2. "The books at the library is very helpful." - This is incorrect because "books" is a plural noun and should be paired with a plural verb. The correct form should be "The books at the library are very helpful."
3. "The island visited by the travelers are warm." - This is also incorrect because "island" is a singular noun, so the verb should be singular. The correct form should be "The island visited by the travelers is warm."
4. "My collection of stamps is extensive." - This is the correct sentence. "Collection" is a singular noun, and the verb "is" correctly matches it in number.
