[amp_mcq option1=”Sixty miles” option2=”are” option3=”a good distance” option4=”No error” correct=”option4″]
The correct answer is: D. No error
The sentence “Sixty miles are a good distance” is grammatically correct. The subject “sixty miles” is singular, and the verb “are” is also singular. The phrase “a good distance” is an adjective phrase that modifies the noun “distance.”
The other options are incorrect because they either change the meaning of the sentence or make it grammatically incorrect.
- Option A: “Sixty miles is a good distance” is grammatically incorrect, because the subject “sixty miles” is singular and the verb “is” is plural.
- Option B: “Are sixty miles a good distance?” is grammatically correct, but it changes the meaning of the sentence from a statement to a question.
- Option C: “Sixty miles are a good distance to drive” is grammatically correct, but it changes the meaning of the sentence from a statement about distance to a statement about driving.
