Read the sentence. sean or stacey (knows, know) when shuttles or other space vehicles (is, are) launched. which pair of verbs correctly completes the sentence? a: know; are b: know; is c: knows; is d: knows; are

The answer is indeed letter D. knows; are

Explanation:

When we use "or" to join words that function as the subject in agreement with a verb, we must look at those words to decide if the verb should conjugate in the singular or the plural form. The rule is actually quite simple. If both words are singular, the verb is also singular. If one or both words are plural, then the verb is also plural. Note that it is enough for one of them to be plural.

In "Sean or Stacy", Sean is just one person (singular) and Stacy is just one person as well (singular). Thus, the proper conjugation is singular: Sean or Stacy knows. In "shuttles or other space vehicles", shuttles and vehicles are both plural words (the -s in the end represents their plural form), meaning there are more than just one shuttle and one vehicle. Thus, the proper conjugation is plural: shuttles or other space vehicles are launched.

The full sentence is, therefore:

Sean or Stacy knows when shuttles or other space vehicles are launched.

i have read the novel roll of thunder hear my cry by mildred d. taylor.

1. this isn't like any other story i've read or watched because it is about a black family in mississippi right after slavery in the u.s. had become illegal. most of the novels i have read were about slavery. another point is that the author of the novel used symbolism in a way i haven't seen before. for example she uses thunder as something negative meaning something bad will happen. but by the end of the novel, she made thunder a good thing.

2.   one character that changed during the novel was stacey. stacey is the eldest child of the black logan family. around the begging of the novel stacey was avoiding the white boy jeremy simms. he had a dislike for jeremy's family. but at the end of the novel stacey began to like jeremy.

3. the author starts the novel with the problem that the children of the logan family have to avoid the white kid school bus while walking to school.
