Correct option is B
Option (b) contains the
correct verb form and is grammatically accurate.
The subject "The committee" is a
collective noun and is treated as
singular when referring to the group as a single unit. Therefore, the correct verb form should be “works” (singular) and not “work”.
Grammatical rule used:
Subject-Verb Agreement Rule: A singular subject takes a singular verb, and a plural subject takes a plural verb. Collective nouns like “committee” usually take singular verbs when the group acts as one unit.
Explanation of the grammatical rule in Hindi:
जब कोई समूह एक इकाई के रूप में कार्य करता है, जैसे "committee", तो उसके साथ क्रिया (verb) भी एकवचन (singular) होती है।
Example:
The team plays well together.
Incorrect options:
· (a):
is work – incorrect auxiliary and verb pairing.
· (c):
has work – incorrect verb form; should be "has worked" if in perfect tense.
· (d):
worked – past tense, but the question asks for present tense.
