Show the answer and explanation
CorrectNot quiteAnswer A
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The subject is "the boy", which is singular, so the verb is "is". "Who won the prizes" only says which boy.
Worth noting
"The prizes" is plural and stands right before the blank, but it belongs to the "who" part, not to the subject.
