Correct Answer: are


Solution : The correct choice is the second option.

The sentence "Hello! How (is) you?" contains a grammatical error. The correct replacement for the bracketed word segment is "are".

According to the subject-verb agreement rule, the verb must be placed according to the subject of the verb. Here, the subject is "you", so the plural form of the verb should be used.

Therefore, the corrected sentence should be: "Hello! How are you?"
