JAMB - English Language (1991 - No. 29)

In the question below choose the word(s) or phrase(s) which best fills(s) the gap(s):
Each of the candidates that came late ..... to complete ....
have/this form
are having/thses forms
have/these forms
has/this form

Explanation

"Each" is a singular pronoun, and when used as the subject, it takes a singular verb. "Has" is the singular form of the verb to agree with the singular subject "Each." "This form" is the correct object complement, indicating what each candidate has to complete. Therefore, option D, "has/this form," is the most suitable choice for maintaining grammatical agreement and conveying the intended meaning.
