Question

15. That basketball player  ___________________ (has/have + lead) the team to victory so many times.

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The sentence requires correct subject–verb agreement and the appropriate verb form after the auxiliary have/has.

- The subject is singular: 'That basketball player'. With a singular subject in the present perfect tense, we use 'has' plus the past participle. Therefore, 'has' is the correct auxiliary.

- After 'has', the verb should be in the past participle form. For the verb 'lead', the past participle is 'led'. So the correct combination is 'has led'.

- Common incorrect forms to consider:
  - 'has lead' uses the base form instead of the past participle, which is ungrammatical in the present perfect construction.
  - 'have led' would be incorrect here because 'have' is used with plural subjects or with 'I/you/we/they' where the subject is not singular third person. Since the subject is singular ('player'), we need 'has', not 'have'.
  - 'has leads' inserts an incorrect third-person singular present tense form, not the past participle needed after 'has'.

Putting it together conceptually: the sentence expresses an action that occurred multiple times up to now (present relevance) and the subject is singular, hence 'has led' correctly conveys 'at various times up to now, the player has led the team to victory.'
