To solve this question, we need to determine the correct missing word to complete the sentence. Looking at the image, we can see a picture of a bookshelf with different shelves. The question asks us to choose the missing word to complete the sentence.
First, let's analyze the options given:
A) is
B) are
C) am
D) was
To determine the correct answer, we need to consider the subject-verb agreement in the sentence. The subject of the sentence is "book," which is singular. Therefore, we need a singular verb form to match the subject.
Option A) "is" is the correct singular verb form. It agrees with the subject "book." Therefore, the correct answer is "is."
Now, let's explain why the other options are incorrect:
Option B) "are" is a plural verb form. It does not agree with the singular subject "book."
Option C) "am" is a first-person singular verb form used with the subject "I." It does not agree with the singular subject "book."
Option D) "was" is a past tense singular verb form. Since the sentence is in the present tense, we need a present tense verb form. Therefore, "was" is incorrect.
In summary, the correct missing word to complete the sentence is "is" (Option A). The sentence should be: "The book is on the top shelf... please." This means that the book is located on the top shelf.
