Question 119

English Basic English Grammar Hard

<p><strong>Directions: Choose appropriate words to form a grammatically correct sentence:</strong></p> <p>The decoration of the new house, including the furniture and curtains, _______.</p>

(A) is more pleasing
(B) are more pleasing
(C) is the most pleasing
(D) are pleasing
✓ Correct Answer: Option C Verified Solution

📘 Step-by-Step Solution & Detailed Explanation:

The subject is "The decoration" (singular). The phrase "including the furniture and curtains" does not change the subject, so the verb must be singular: is.

"More pleasing" would need a comparison with "than". So "is the most pleasing" (superlative) is the correct choice.

Answer: (C) is the most pleasing
