   A pair of socks ______ been missing from my room.

   1. has
   2. have
   3. is
   4. are
   Show answer

   Answer: (1) has

   The subject is "A pair" (singular), not "socks", so the singular auxiliary "has" goes with "been missing". "have" and "are" wrongly agree with "socks", and "is been" is not a valid verb form.
