JAMB - English Language (2020 - No. 26)

From the words lettered A to D, choose the word or group of words that best completes each of the following sentences.

 

This class __________students and teachers

comprise
comprises
comprise of
comprises of

Explanation

Comprise means 'made up of'. Therefore, to say 'Comprises of/ Comprise of ' is a tautology.

Note that, singular verbs must agree with a singular noun.

The subject of the sentence is 'This Class' which is a singular noun

This makes Option B correct.
