Explanation:

The answer is are.

This is because the word applicants (subject) is plural, so ‘are expected’(verb), is the answer.

Hope it helps.

We are provided with an incomplete sentence that we need to complete. this can be completed either by using the word are or is. The correct word to fill the gap will be is.

  • The sentence we have been provided is some of the job applicants are expected to pass the difficult screening test.
  • Subject-verb agreement means that when the subject in the sentence is plural then the verb to has to be plural.
  • In this case, the subject in the sentence is 'applicants ' which is plural, and thereby the verb must agree with this and is plural too.
  • The verb used here is are expected.
  • Therefore, the sentence will be written by using the word 'are.'
