Question

Consider the following statements :
1. Ajman is one of the seven Emirates of the UAE.
2. Ras al-khaimah was the last Sheikhdom to join the UAE.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct ?

• A. 1 only
• B. 2 only
• C. Both 1 and 2
• D. Neither 1 nor 2

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

Both 1 and 2

1. In this sentence, there are seven emirates and Ajman is only one of them.

also Ajman is singular so "is" should be used.

2. This sentence is in simple past tense and since the word last is used, 'was ' is used which is correct.

So, option c is the answer.
