Hope that's not a direct answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What do you think?

OpenStudy (conqueror):

Good. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Say them all aloud and what sounds best to you?

OpenStudy (conqueror):

*sigh* Why go offline when you need help ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What do you think?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Say A. B. C. and D. out loud and tell me which sounds good.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

srry i was doing something else ;/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

eliminate the ones that sound wrong and keep the ones that sound right

OpenStudy (conqueror):

And...there's the illegal direct answer.

OpenStudy (conqueror):

@thomaster

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think it is B or D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@AwesomeSays3! Don't put B because someone said it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Put B. in the sentence then read it aloud

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think it is D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@thomaster

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or B :/

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well then you would be correct on D.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Its easy when you say it aloud

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D. is Makes and B. is Make, Read Make in a sentence then read Makes in the sentence.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If you are satisfied with this answer Medal and Close this question.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think it is D am i correct?

OpenStudy (conqueror):

Well, since it's a group of things, it would be singular, and therefore it would not be 'makes'

OpenStudy (conqueror):

However, since it is singular, and 'make' is singular, your are correct about your choice B. :) @AwesomeSays3!
