Grammar Practice: Choosing the Correct Verb Tense

Our family 'has agreed' not to exchange gifts this year.

Explanation:

The correct answer is B. has agreed. Here's why:

• Subject-Verb Agreement: The subject of the sentence is 'family,' which is singular. The verb 'has agreed' agrees with the singular subject.

• Present Perfect Tense: The present perfect tense (has/have + past participle) is used to describe an action that happened in the past and continues to have an effect in the present. The family's decision not to exchange gifts was made in the past but still applies to the current year.
