The sentence "My collection of stamps is extensive" displays correct subject verb agreement.
The sentence that displays correct subject-verb agreement is: "My collection of stamps is extensive."
The sentence that displays correct subject-verb agreement is: "My collection of stamps is extensive."
To determine the correct subject-verb agreement, you need to ensure that the subject of the sentence (which is "My collection of stamps" in this case) agrees with the verb (which is "is" in this case). In English, singular subjects usually take singular verbs, and plural subjects usually take plural verbs.
Now let's analyze the other sentences:
- "The island visited by the travelers are warm." - This sentence is incorrect. The subject "island" is singular, so it should be paired with the singular verb "is" instead of the plural verb "are."
- "The cattle in the field is huge!" - This sentence is correct. The subject "cattle" is plural, so it should be paired with the plural verb "are."
- "The books at the library is very helpful." - This sentence is incorrect. The subject "books" is plural, so it should be paired with the plural verb "are" instead of the singular verb "is."
Remember to pay attention to the number (singular or plural) of the subject and choose the corresponding verb form to ensure subject-verb agreement.
