this race.
(A) have run
(B) has run
(C) will run
(D) would run​

Answer 1

Till today, neither of the two brothers have run this race.

• The correct option that has to be filled in the given blank is "have run".
• Since two people are mentioned in the sentence, so we need to use " have" instead of "has" because "has" is used for singular things only.
• Since the sentence mentions the words "till today" therefore we cannot use verbs of future tense such as "will run" or "would run".

Answer 2

COMPLETE THE SENTENCE

Answer :-

Till today, neither of the two brothers have run this race.

Explanation :-

• Since we are talking about two brothers and not a single person, we will use plural form of the verb and not singular.
• Since, we are referring to an activity which hasn't been done till today, therefore will be using a past tense and not present or future tense.
• As per the above explanation, the options has run, will run, would run gets eliminated as they are using present tense and the singular form of the verb.
• The words which matches to the above explanation is "have run."

Option (A) Have run is the correct answer.
