A.

B.
A new book by J. K Rowling, the author of many fantasies, arrive in bookstores soon.

C.
The post offices in our area opens at 9 a.m.

D.
The dresses on the rack in the back of the store was on sale.

Answer 1

was = singular
were = plural

Also, if a verbs ends in an "s," it's probably referring to a singular noun.

Answer 2

Okay! Thank you! I think it is C :3

Answer 3

"opens" refers to a singular noun. So the correct version of C would be "The post office in our area opens at 9 a.m." or "The post offices in our area open at 9 a.m."

Answer 4

Ohhh, okay! Then should I put B?

Answer 5

Same situation. "Book" is a singular noun, and the verb "arrive" is for plural subjects only. Either it should be changed to "arrives" or it should be changed to "books"

Answer 6

Hmm... then would it be A? :3

Answer 7

Yes. That's correct.

Answer 8

Thank you!

Answer 9
