From the words or group of words lettered A to D, choose the word or group of words that best completes each of the following sentences.
The hunter, with his dogs,……… going into the forest.
-
was seen
- are being seen
- have been seen
- were seen
The correct answer is: A
Explanation
The sentence would read:
"The hunter, with his dogs, was seen going into the forest."
Here, "was seen" is correct because the subject of the sentence is "The hunter," which is singular. The phrase "with his dogs" does not change the singular nature of the subject.
