Question:

Of the four sentences below — touching team agreement, neither-of-two agreement, 'as well as' agreement and 'bread and butter' — only one is fully grammatical. Name it.

1.
The team are playing exceptionally well this season.
2.
Neither of the two brothers is interested in politics.
3.
He as well as his friends have arrived early.
4.
Bread and butter are his only breakfast.

Correct Answer: Neither of the two brothers is interested in politics.

"Neither" is singular, so "neither of the two brothers is" is correct. In (a) the collective noun "team" acting as one unit needs "is"; in (c) the verb agrees with "he", so it needs "has"; in (d) "bread and butter" as a single meal takes "is".
