Correct Answer: lead to
Solution : The correct choice is the third option.
Explanation : The correct form should be " leads to " to maintain subject-verb agreement. In the original sentence, the subject "either of these two roads" is singular, so the verb "lead" should be singular as well. The correct verb form is "leads". This correction aligns the subject and verb properly, resulting in a grammatically accurate statement.
So, the correct sentence would be: "Either of these two roads l eads to the post office."
