Answers With Explanation:

1. b) number and person (Subject Verb Agreement depends on the Number (Singular/Plural) and Person (1st/2nd/3rd) of the subject. সাবজেক্টের Number এবং Person অনুযায়ী Verb এর রূপ নির্ধারিত হয়।)

2. a) are (The subject is 'the uses' (plural), so the verb is 'are'. "Sweet are the uses of adversity" is a famous Shakespearean quote. এখানে Subject হলো 'uses', যা plural, তাই verb 'are' হবে।)

3. c) is ('Gulliver's Travels' is the name of a book (Singular), so it takes a singular verb 'is'. বইয়ের নাম দেখতে plural হলেও singular verb গ্রহণ করে।)

4. c) taste ('Grapes' is plural, so it takes the plural verb 'taste'. Also, sensory verbs like 'taste' are not usually used in continuous forms here. Grapes plural তাই plural verb 'taste' বসবে।)

5. c) were (In hypothetical or wishful sentences ("If I..."), 'were' is used with all subjects. কল্পনা বা ইচ্ছা প্রকাশে সব subject এর সাথে 'were' বসে।)

6. d) is (Subjects like Physics, Mathematics, etc., ending in 's' are singular nouns representing a field of study. বিষয়ের নাম দেখতে plural হলেও singular verb নেয়।)

7. b) are ('The' + Adjective (virtuous) refers to a whole class of people and is plural. Adjective এর আগে the বসলে তা plural common noun হয় এবং plural verb নেয়।)

8. b) is (When subjects are joined by 'along with', the verb agrees with the first subject ('The headmaster' - singular). 'Along with' দ্বারা যুক্ত হলে প্রথম subject অনুযায়ী verb হয়।)

9. b) Tania as well as her friends is participating in the party ('As well as' follows the first subject. 'Tania' is singular, so the verb is 'is'. 'As well as' থাকলে প্রথম subject অনুযায়ী verb বসে।)

10. b) is (With 'Neither...nor', the verb agrees with the subject closest to it ('Simi' - singular). 'Neither...nor' এর ক্ষেত্রে নিকটতম subject অনুযায়ী verb হয়।)

11. d) man has (The structure is "Many a" + Singular Noun + Singular Verb. 'Many a' এর পর noun ও verb উভয়ই singular হয়।)

12. a) was (The subject is 'The reason' (singular), so the verb is 'was'. Subject 'The reason' singular, তাই verb ও singular হবে।)

13. c) is (The subject is 'The capacity' (singular), not 'students'. Preposition এর আগের শব্দটি subject, তাই 'is' বসবে।)

14. c) has ('Each' makes the subject singular. 'Each member' takes 'has'. Each থাকলে verb singular হয়।)

15. d) is ('One of' + Plural Noun + Singular Verb. 'One of' এর পর noun plural হলেও verb singular হয়।)

16. c) was ('Neither of' takes a singular verb. 'Neither of the girls' implies not one of them. Neither of থাকলে verb singular হয়।)

17. d) has been (Fractions of uncountable nouns (work) take singular verbs. কাজের পরিমাণ uncountable, তাই singular verb হবে।)

21. d) is ('News' is a singular noun despite ending in 's'. News শব্দটি singular।)

23. d) has increased ("The number of" takes a singular verb, while "A number of" takes a plural verb. 'The number of' থাকলে verb singular হয়।)

24. b) make (In arithmetic, plural verbs are often used (e.g., "Two and two make four"). Though 'makes' is also possible, the provided key selects 'make'. গাণিতিক হিসেবে plural verb 'make' বহুল প্রচলিত।)
