Which do you think?
@2Pretty
I think B
A.Many of the boxes of cereal was empty. ✖ the subject in this sentence would be "boxes" and the verb would be "was" and the words in between are the "noise" of the sentence that can throw you off... so, ask yourself: "does 'boxes was..' sound correct?" ~Nope, this one is incorrect. B. Everyone in the lower seats have the best view of the game. ✖ subject: everyone & verb: have ~does "everyone have" sound correct? Nope, this one is also incorrect. C. Each of them hopes to make new friends. ✔ subject: each of them& verb: hopes ~does "each of them hopes" sound correct? Yes, this is the correct answer. D. Both of those girls practices regularly on their woodwind instrument ✖ subject: both of the girls & verb: practices ~does "both of the girls practices" sound correct? Nope, this, too is incorrect. ~Hope I Helped! :D
It's C!
