SOLUTION:Question OF The Day: sc (Reality television)

 Out of the public's interest in the details of and conflicts in other people's lives have grown a booming market for "reality" television shows that are bringing "regular" people onto the television screen with increasing frequency.

a)other people's lives have grown a booming market for "reality" television shows that are bringing

b)other people's lives has grown a booming market for "reality" television shows that are bringing

c)another person's life has grown a booming market for a "reality" television show that is bringing

d)other people's lives has grown a booming market for "reality" television shows that is bringing

e)other people's lives has grown a booming market for "reality" television shows that bring

REASON FOR ELIMINATION (ROE 1):- DIFFERENCE IN USE OF "OTHER" AND "ANOTHER"

"another" can only be used with singular nonspecific countable noun

Examples:

“Let’s meet another day.”

“I’d like another piece of cake.”

"other" can only be used with plural or uncountable nonspecific noun

Examples:

“Other people have problems, too.” [people = plural noun]

“This book has other information.” [information = uncountable noun]

By using above rule option c is eliminated.

ROE 2:- Have grown/ has grown???

This is one sentence where the subject is coming after the verb. Its very important to determine the real subject in all subject verb agreement questions. here verb is Have grown/ has grown and subject is "Market". MARKET being singular will have " has grown" as the correct verb form.

That eliminates option a

ROE 3:- THAT are bringing/ that is bringing/that bring

Again the real subject for the above verb is the " MARKET" , hence are bringing would be wrong. therefore OPTION B is eliminated.(market is singular).

 EVEN using "market bring " is wrong grammatically as singular subject "market" will only go with a verb with "s". Therefore OPTION E is also eliminated .

OPTION D is the correct answer
