QUESTION 37: GRAMMAR IN USE

Mini Heroes Challenge · 1 lesson

Despite coming from different worlds, Superman and Batman ______ incredible powers that enable them to fight enemies.

  • have
  • has
  • having
  • had
Why:

Correct answer: A (have)
- "Superman and Batman" is a plural subject (two people), so it needs the plural verb "have," not the singular "has."
- The sentence is in present tense, describing what they do now, so "have" is correct.

Why the others are wrong:
- B (has): This is singular and doesn't match a two-person subject.
- C (having): This is a gerund/participle form, not a main verb—the sentence needs a complete verb.
- D (had): This is past tense, but the sentence describes their current abilities.
