Correct Option C
The Greek Poet is singluar, to have SV Agreement valid, it must follow with singular verb like "is", B, and C have flaw with verb "are" usage, makes SV Agreement error, Option B, and E - can be eliminate
B. who was buried at Thermopylae, there are an inscription as
E. that was buried at Thermopylae, there are an inscription as
With option A, and D,
usage of "was" past tense, indicatesthe poet was buried and today we are not sure, it's still there or not, this makes tense error, and demean the intended meaning of the sentence. To make sure simple buried is sufficient
Additionally, pronoun "Who" which modify the poet, makes Redundancy such as the "the poet poet was buried"
With D, "that" used at end, wrongly modifies "inscription" that fails to comparison list, which can be done by "as" usage.
Eliminate A, and D
A. who was buried at Thermopylae, there is an inscription as
D. who was buried at Thermopylae, there is an inscription that
C. buried at Thermopylae, there is an inscription as
Correct
- SV Agreement
- Usage of "as"
- no tense error
- no pronoun error
