Choose the one with proper subject-verb agreement. a. the student (as well as the teacher) want to go to the museum. b. the student as well as the teacher want to go to the museum. c. the student and teacher wants to go to the museum. d. the student as well as the teacher wants to go to the museum.

The sentence with proper subject-verb agreement is B. The student as well as the teacher want to go to the museum. In this sentence, the subject is what we call a compound subject, meaning that the verb refers and agrees with more than just one singular word. The compound subject is "student" and "teacher" and they are connected by "as well as", which functions as a coordinating conjunction would. That's why the verb should conjugate in its plural form.

Option A is incorrect because the structure inside parentheses is not related to the verb and does not influence its conjugation. Options C and D have a verb in the singular form for a compound subject - that would demand a plural conjugation.

d. it compares the speaker reflection to a predatory bird that haunts the speaker

ok so it would be d because that would catch attention and make them what to read it.
