SSC CHSL 2025 PYQ — Question 1

SSC CHSL - 18 Nov 2025 - Shift 2 • English • Q1

Which sentence is grammatically correct?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

(A) is incorrect because "Each" is a singular subject and requires a singular verb ("is" or "was").

(B) is incorrect because "Every boy and girl" is a singular subject and requires a singular verb ("has").

(C) is correct; "Either" is a singular subject and correctly uses the singular verb "is".

(D) is incorrect; in "neither...nor" constructions, the verb agrees with the subject closest to it. "Friends" is plural, so the verb should be "are".
