Which ends displays correct subject-verb agreement?
1. The dialogue spoken by the actors make the crowd war with laughter.
2. The people in the audience stand as the show ends.
3. The actors in the play returns to take another bow.
4. The helpers working behind the stage comes out, too!
2. The people in the audience stand as the show ends.
The correct sentence that displays subject-verb agreement is:
2. The people in the audience stand as the show ends.
In this sentence, the subject "people" agrees with the verb "stand" in terms of number.
To determine which sentence correctly demonstrates subject-verb agreement, let's break down each sentence:
1. The subject of the sentence is "dialogue," and the verb is "make." In this case, the verb form "make" does not agree with the subject because "dialogue" is singular. To make it correct, we should use "makes" instead of "make."
2. The subject of the sentence is "people," and the verb is "stand." Here, the verb form "stand" agrees with the subject, as both are plural.
3. The subject of the sentence is "actors," and the verb is "returns." The verb form "returns" does not agree with the subject because "actors" is plural. We should use "return" instead.
4. The subject of the sentence is "helpers," and the verb is "comes." Similar to the previous sentence, the verb form "comes" does not agree with the subject "helpers" because "helpers" is plural. The correct verb form to match the subject should be "come."
Therefore, the sentence that correctly displays subject-verb agreement is:
2. The people in the audience stand as the show ends.
