Question

Identify the part of the sentence that contains an error: Neither of the two boys (A) / have completed (B) / their homework (C) / on time (D).

• A. Neither of the two boys
• B. have completed
• C. their homework
• D. on time

Hint:

Neither is singular and takes a singular verb, has, not have.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Quick test.
Replace neither of the two boys with neither one. Neither one has completed sounds right, showing the verb must be has, so (B) is wrong.
\[\boxed{\textrm{have completed}}\]
