      C Five were killed and one were injured. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Five were killed and one was injured. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      The auxiliary verb is missing in the sentence. Since ‘five people’ is plural, ‘were’ should be used. And after ‘one’, it should be ‘was’.
