توضیح
The correct option is "A. neither of them has" because the subject "neither of them" is singular, so it should be followed by the singular form of the verb "has." The verb "has" agrees with the singular subject "neither of them." Therefore, the correct sentence is: "Two young boys have been caught with parts of the stolen machine but neither of them has admitted stealing it."
