Answer 1

The sentence that does not have an error in subject and verb agreement is, " A grapefruit half is waiting for me on the breakfast table." The correct answer is option A. The subject of the sentence is the word "grapefruit". The subject takes the singular form. Therefore, the verb that should be used in the sentence is also in singular form, which is the linking verb "is".
