Question

Choose the option that best corrects the statement at the underlined point:
Andy Murray and Roger Federer are two example of players who have won at the Wimbledon.

• A. NO CHANGE
• B. examples of tennis player
• C. examples of tennis players
• D. type of players

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

There are two numbers in Noun-Number: Singular and Plural. When we speak about one person / thing, we use the noun in singular form. When we speak about more than one person / thing, we use the noun in plural form.

In the sentence given, we are referring to two people, so we must use a plural noun. Since 'type' is singular, we may rule out option D. We are also talking about two players, so option B is incorrect.

Hence, the correct answer is C) examples of tennis players.
