Explanation:

Subject-verb agreement sounds easy, doesn’t it? A singular subject takes singular verb:

Tom rides his bike to work every day.

 

A plural subject takes a plural verb:

The boys are climbing the walls like caged animals.

Yet, The Copyeditor’s Handbook lists no fewer than 25 cases that are not so clear cut, and Garner’s Modern American Usage devotes nearly five columns to the topic. Even the comparatively diminutive Grammar Smart devotes five pages (including quizzes) to the topic.
