Hi, I have question regarding the comma in front of "to volunteer.
If D is correct, we will have the sentence as:
The majority of patrons of the local library, though enthusiastic about a new book mobile service, are either unable or unwilling, to volunteer time to staff it
Now, it looks kinda weird to have the comma before "to volunteer", doesn't it?

Using plural/singular is not so simple in this type of sentence.
The majority of patrons... blah blah blah... unwilling.
Comparing it to
The number of women is decreasing, you might be confused.. so don't!!!
In the second case, the number is the subject... the number is decreasing.
But in the first case, we are not talking about the majority, we are talking about the patrons. Here the majority is an adjective, not the subject.
The majority of patrons... blah blah blah... unwilling.

Opiton A and B is out because "the majority of patrons" is plural
According to the structure, either X or Y, only D remains.
36 seconds :D

but then in the Choices, A was not written with a comma. Not good but now it is fixed.
