\n

1. My brother is at school.<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Correct answer:<\/strong> b) is<\/strong><\/p>\n

Explanation:<\/strong>
\u201cMy brother\u201d is third-person singular<\/strong>, so we use is<\/strong> with the verb to be<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Example:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \u201cI\u201d is a subject pronoun<\/strong> and must be used before the verb.<\/p>\n

    ❌ Me<\/em> \u2192 object pronoun
