TEAS Sentence Completion Practice Test 3

This sentence has an error in the verb-time agreement. The whole sentence is in the present tense so a verb of past tense (were) should be changed into present tense plural verb to make the sentence correct. Option
“there were banquets hanging” uses a past tense plural verb (were).
Option “there is banquets hanging” uses a present tense singular verb (is).
Option “there was banquets hanging” uses a past tense singular verb (was).
Option “there some banquets hanging” uses an indefinite pronoun (some) in the place of a verb.
Option “there are banquets hanging” uses a present tense plural verb (are) that is appropriate to the sentence; hence, it is the correct answer.
