    Question

    Select the most appropriate option to substitute the highlighted segment in the following sentence.
    The newly admitted students has been given a pair of uniforms by the management.

    A.

    are been given a pair

    B.

    has given a pair

    C.

    have been given a pair

    D.

    have being given a pair

    Correct option is C

    The correct substitution of the highlighted segment is “have been given a pair”.
    Explanation: The subject is “students” (plural), so the helping verb should also be plural – “have”, not “has.”
    Correct structure: Plural subject + have been + past participle
    Example: The employees have been given their bonuses.
    �� Grammar Rule:
    ✔ Subject-verb agreement – Plural nouns take plural verbs
    ✔ Present perfect passive voice structure: have/has been + V3
