Answer 1

Answer: (B)

ground staff

There are two numbers in Noun-Number: Singular and Plural. When we speak about one person or thing, we use the noun in singular form. When we speak about more than one person or thing, we use the noun in plural form.

In the given context, we are referring to two people. Hence, we use the plural noun. Staff refers to more than one person.

Hence, the correct answer is B) Ground Staff.
