Sure, I'd be happy to help with these sentences! It's important to choose the correct form of the verb to match the subject in each sentence. Let's go through them one by one:

  1. Bob's progress in science (impress/impresses) everyone.

    • Here, the subject is "Bob's progress," which is singular. Therefore, the correct verb form is "impresses." The sentence should read: "Bob's progress in science impresses everyone."
  2. The current news (is/are) good, everybody feels happy about it.

    • "News" is a tricky word. Even though it ends in 's', it is usually considered singular when it refers to information or reports. So, the correct verb form is "is." The sentence should be: "The current news is good, everybody feels happy about it."
  3. Molly's knowledge (wasn't/weren't) deep enough for her to pass the exam.

    • "Molly's knowledge" is a singular subject. Therefore, the correct verb form is "wasn't." The sentence should read: "Molly's knowledge wasn't deep enough for her to pass the exam."
  4. The money you are looking for (was/were) spent last week.

    • "The money" is considered a singular subject, even though it might refer to multiple bills or coins. So, the correct verb is "was." The sentence should be: "The money you are looking for was spent last week."
  5. Her hair always (look/looks) neat and beautiful.

    • In this case, "hair" is treated as a singular, collective noun, so the verb should be singular too. Therefore, the sentence should be: "Her hair always looks neat and beautiful."

Remember, the key is to match the verb with the subject in terms of number (singular or plural). English can be a bit tricky with its exceptions, but these rules generally apply.
