Answer 1

The correct option is A is

Verbs must agree with their subjects in number and person.

There are some words that end with -s. They look plural, but take a singular verb, for example athletics, economics, physics, measles,Mathematics, news and etc.

Option A is correct because it contains singular verb.

Whereas, option B contains plural verb which is incorrect and option C and D contain the present perfect verb which is generally followed by past participle verb. Therefore option C and D are also correct.
