Correct Answer: He are very thirsty


Solution : The error lies in the third option.

In this sentence, "he" is a singular subject, so the verb that follows should also be singular. "Is" is the singular form of the verb "to be" that matches with the singular subject "he".

Therefore, the correct sentence should be: He is very thirsty. Give him a little water to drink.
