Subject+Verb+Agreement

**Directions:** Underline the correct verb form. If the subject is a noun rather than a pronoun, you may need to substitute the pronoun subject in order to see if you have chosen the correct verb, i. e. use “they” in place of a plural noun such as “people,” or a noun phrase such as “all of the children” and “he,” “she,” or “it” in place of a singular noun. EXAMPLES: The cow and the horse (eat, eats) hay every night. “They” __eat__ hay every night. John (do, does) his homework after school. “He” __does__ his homework after school. 1. The world (change, changes) so rapidly that we can hardly keep up. 2. People (is, are) often ten or twenty years behind the times in their knowledge of the world. 3. People who (live, lives) in poverty often do not even have television or newspapers. 4. He (doesn’t, don’t) want to be killed. 5. Life (is, are) very complicated 6.
