From the words lettered A to D, choose the word or group of words that best completes each of the following sentences. It is you that ____________ to write the letter
A. is suppose B. is supposed C. are suppose D. are supposed
Correct Answer: D
Explanation
The law of proximity states that any subject closest to the verb element controls the verb form.
The sentence has a singular subject 'it' and a plural subject 'you', hence a plural verb is needed because 'you' is closer.
Similarly, 'supposed' is most appropriate because of the relative clause 'that'. This implies that supposed functions as an 'adjective' in this context which means 'intended'
