Suggested: Upcoming government exams
Correct Answer: express his appreciation
Solution : The correct choice is the first option.
Explanation : The error lies in the subject-verb agreement. The word "every" is used as a singular noun form, and it is followed by a singular verb. Therefore, the verb "express" should be in the singular form, which is "expresses", which means to convey or communicate a thought, feeling, or idea.
Therefore, the correct sentence would be: Every word and every line in the works of John Keats expresses his appreciation of nature's beauty.
