1) My collection of stamps is worth a fortune.

2) A large flock of seagulls was feeding on the other side of the estuary.

'Subject-Verb'' Agreement:

  • In ''subject-verb'' agreement, subjects and verbs must agree with one another.
  • If the subject is singular then the verb is also singular whereas if the subject is plural then the verb is also plural.
  • In the given sentences, the subject is a collective noun that is singular so the auxiliary verb must be singular too. so we should use the singular auxiliary verb "is" and ''was'' respectively.

Correct Question:

1) My collection of stamps ___ worth a fortune.

a. is  b. are

2) A large flock of seagulls ____ feeding on the other side of the estuary.

a) was b)were
