Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. The committee works diligently to ensure fair and unbiased decision.
The committee works diligently to ensure fair and unbiased decision is a suitable option.
This option correctly uses the present tense verb "works." The subject "committee" is a collective noun. American English typically treats it as a singular noun when the group acts as a single entity, so the singular verb "works" is appropriate.
