Identify the sentence with correct grammar usage.
Correct answer
D
Rationale
In English, the subject and verb must agree in number. In option D, 'Sherri and her cousin' is a plural subject, so the plural verb 'were' is the correct form to use. Options A, B, and C have subject-verb agreement errors. Option A should use 'were' instead of 'was' to agree with the plural subjects. Option B should use 'are' instead of 'is' to agree with the plural subject list. Option C should use 'are' instead of 'is' to agree with the plural noun 'cages.' Therefore, option D is the correct choice.
