Vipin thanks for your answer.
I want to understand in A
"modern statistical techniques" is a pharase subject, so its singular.
My next question is, in a given sentence how we can identify whether the given pharase is a subject or not......
its sounds stupid but it seems I'm making mistake here, so I want to understand it.
Please explain.
