Question
Fill in the blank with the verbs that agree with the subject.
None of these books _____ thrilling.
- Is
- Are
- Were
- None of the above
Hint:
None was derived from not one which makes it absolutely singular. It is incorrect to say, 'one of us were there'. It would be 'one of us was there'.
The correct answer is: Is
'None of these books is thrilling', 'none' may be either singular or plural, depending on whether it means 'not one' or 'not any'. Using a singular verb like is when none is followed by a plural form. This sentence makes us regard none as meaning not one, we want singular verb.
