Answer 1

Answer:

the whole team has gone to ajmer for the match.

most of the girls in my class have black hair.

some people say that a princess once lived in this house.

Answer 2

The whole team has gone to Ajmer for the match.

• We have used "has" because the team is a collective noun which shows a singular form.
• Collective nouns such as team, family, class, group, and host, take a singular verb. In American English, the usage of “team” functions as a singular collective noun.

Most of the girls in my class have black hair.

• We have used "have" because the subject "girls" is in the plural form. We use "have" with the first and second person singular form and plural form and the third person plural.

Some people say that a princess once lived in this house.

• We have used "say" because, "some people say” is correct. A plural as in "some", which is equal to people would be followed by the word “say".

Hence,

The whole team has gone to Ajmer for the match.

Most of the girls in my class have black hair.

Some people say that a princess once lived in this house. are the correct answers.
