Answer 2

C. She said that neither fruit nor vegetables were very fresh at the market.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct subject-verb agreement is noticed in the underlined clause. In that clause, the subject is neither fruit nor vegetables and due to a rule of proximity the main verb should be in the plural form. This is the reason why the predicate of the clause runs:were very fresh ,being the last noun of the subject vegetables .
