impact towards reading, writing, and learning. Get your dictionary or go online and

You have learned that if a sentence has singular subject it is followed by a singular
verb (with -s), and if it has a plural subject it is followed by a plural verb (without -s or
base form). For example.

o Arsenio lives in Tumana, Marikina City.

o More people live in Malanday than any other barangay in Marikina*.

Let us recall how to write a sentence with correct subject-verb agreement. Complete
the following sentences with a singular or plural form of the verb in brackets. Use
present tense.

1. His talent in playing the piano _______ me. (amaze)

2. The mayor _____ one of the people invited in the wedding. (be)
3. Concepcion Integrated School _____ open today if you need to get your modules. (be)
4. The cost of meat in the market _______ risen dramatically due to the pandemic.
(have)
5. The government’s anti - Covid19 vaccines ______ arriving next month. (be)
