Question : Improve the underlined part of the sentence. Choose 'No improvement' as an answer if the sentence is grammatically correct.
Watch your step—the third stair have a broken tread.
Option 1: has a break
Option 2: no improvement
Option 3: has a broken
Option 4: has a broke
Correct Answer: has a broken
Solution : The third option is the correct choice.
According to the subject-verb agreement, when the subject is singular, the verb should also be in the singular form. In the original sentence, the third stair is a singular subject, so the correct verb form is " has" instead of have.
Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "Watch your step—the third stair has a broken tread."
