neither of the boys........ able to win the race .option A)are B)were C) is D)none

Dear student,

Here is the answer:

C) is

Neither of the boys is able to win the race .

Explanation: We use "neither" with singular nouns. With "neither of" we use plural countable nouns. But in both the cases singular verb is used. Thus we would use "is" to complete the above sentence.
