A. are
B. is
C. were
D. have been

Answer 1

I will give medals

Answer 2

I am not particularly good at grammar, but I am pretty sure 'is' is the correct verb to use..
you can say
they are
they were
they have been
though you can't say
they is

In other words, 'is' is the odd one out.

I can't really give you logical grammatical details though.
