      Select the word/phrase that should replace the

      emboldened word/phrase to make the given sentence grammatically relevant. In the bus accident, five killed and one injured.
      A Five killed and one were injured. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Five was killed and one was injured. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Five were killed and one were injured. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Five were killed and one was injured. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The auxiliary verb is missing in the sentence. Since โ€˜five peopleโ€™ is plural, โ€˜wereโ€™ should be used. And after โ€˜oneโ€™, it should be โ€˜wasโ€™.
