Choose the correct sentence: ‘There ___ many reasons for this decision.’

Explanation

In sentences beginning with ‘there is’ or ‘there are,’ the verb must agree with the noun that actually follows it, which is the true grammatical subject of the sentence, rather than with the word ‘there’ itself. Since ‘reasons’ is plural, the plural verb ‘are’ is correct, giving ‘There are many reasons for this decision.’ Explore more English MCQs on mcqstutor to keep practicing.
