The pronoun that can take either a singular or a plural verb is:
D) some.
Explanation:
The other pronouns are specific in their number. "Anyone" and "nobody" demand a singular verb, while "several" always accompanies a plural noun, needing a plural verb:
- Anyone knows how to make a cake from scratch?
- Nobody likes to be left alone.
- Several men are marching up the street.
On the other hand, "some" can accompany nouns that are either singular or plural. Therefore, the verb that follows can also be singular or plural:
- Some (of the books) are torn.
- Some (of the soup) has been eaten.
Therefore, our answer is letter D) some.
