Question : Improve the underlined part of the sentence. Choose 'No improvement' as an answer if the sentence is grammatically correct.
The day are warm, so the students ate their lunch outside.
Option 1: was warming
Option 2: is warm
Option 3: No improvement
Option 4: was warm
Correct Answer: was warm
Solution : The fourth option is correct.
Explanation : In the original sentence, the subject is the day , indicating a singular entity. However, the verb (are) is plural, resulting in a lack of agreement in the tense. To rectify this, the appropriate past tense form of the verb (be) for a singular subject, was , should be used.
Therefore, the correct sentence would be: "The day was warm , so the students ate their lunch outside."
