b. use a plural verb
c. make the verb agree with the subject closest to the verb
d. use a plural verb if the collective noun uses and

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: The answer is letter A.  
 Collective nouns could be taken as singular or plural. This depends on how each is used in a sentence. A singular collective noun is a word that functions as a single unit.
 
For example: The play’s cast is currently rehearsing. The word “cast” is a singular subject. Although there are many members of the cast, they still function as one unit.

The plural collective noun on the other hand indicates many units and thus takes a plural verb.

Tartuffe's appearance in act 3 is known for which of the following? A. Delayed emergence?
B. Exposed deliverance?
C. Postponed exposure?
D. Belated introduction?

Answers

Answer:

A. Delayed emergence.

Explanation:

Moliere's comedic play "Tartuffe" tells the story of how one man became the bone of contention in a family. Tartuffe came upon Orgon's family and made everything a mess.

Though the character of Tartuffe is talked about and even addressed, the main physical appearance of the character did not occur. He appeared physically only in Act III scene ii. This literary technique of a delayed emergence of the main character is employed by writers to produce some sort of effects in their works. Here too, Tartuffe's delayed appearance heightens the audience's anticipation of him. Also, it is another way of showing the mechanism of Tartuffe's ways of working, just like he did in the Orgon family. His presence is solidified only through the rumors and fears of the people who interact with him.
A because he comes in later and emergence means enters
