Read each sentence to find out whether there is an error in any underlined part.
The scenery of Kashmir are enchanting.
Answer: C
The error is in part (C) are enchanting.
The subject of the sentence is the scenery, a singular, uncountable noun; of Kashmir only describes it. So the verb must be singular: The scenery of Kashmir is enchanting.
Parts (A) and (B) are correct. The trap is to let the nearby proper noun pull the verb into the plural. 'Scenery' never takes a plural form or plural verb.
