SSC CGL - 09 Sep 2024 - Shift 3 • English • Q23

Select the word segment that can substitute the bracketed word segment correctly and complete the sentence meaningfully.

(Each participant have) performed well.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. Each participant has.

  • The phrase "Each participant" is treated as singular because "each" refers to individuals one at a time.
  • Therefore, it requires the singular verb "has" to maintain subject-verb agreement. "Have" is used with plural subjects, which doesn't apply here.
  • So, "Each participant has performed well" is the correct and meaningful sentence.
