Basic Subject-Verb Agreement can be easy but not all. There are a lot to be confused with and a lot of rules to learn and remember. This quiz reminded me again of those rules😃. Great number of questions👌 but it didn't bored me. Well-explained for my wrong answers😊.

This was actually a very good grammar test! Informative and a little bit tricky. The only matter is that I didn't really get the logic of the question that started like this "The terrorist and the serial killer ..." I think they're referring to two people, so the verb agrees to plural pronouns. thanks mate!

Eager Dodo author May 27, 2020

If the subject refers to a single thing or person, the subject requires a singular verb. "The terrorist and serial killer" in that question refers to the same person.
Other similar sentences are:
*The Mathematics teacher and social mistress is coming. (Same person, one person)
*The Governor and Chairman of the committee is speaking at the conference. (It refers to the same person, one person.)
I really appreciate your efforts for participating and for commenting. 👍
