Answer:

That shop carries beautiful fabrics.

Step-by-step explanation:

The (simple) present tense is used to describe general truths, unchanging or repeated situations or habits. Some of the rules we have to bare in mind when using the present tense is that in the third person singular -he/she/it- the verb must always end in -s. Another rule is that those verbs ending in -y change to -ies in the present tense. This is the case of the example provided in the question, where carry turns into carries.
