Question

    Read the following sentences carefully, choose the one

    that is grammatically/contextually incorrect, and mark it as your answer.
    A Neither of the solutions seem practical for the current situation. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    C The scenic view from the hilltop was breathtaking Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D The committee members agreed on the proposal unanimously. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E All are incorrect Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    If a sentence starts with Neither followed by the preposition of, the word Neither is the subject and is considered singular for Not one. Hence, the subject "Neither of the solutions" is singular, so the verb should be "seems" instead of "seem." The correct sentence is: "Neither of the solutions seems practical for the current situation."
