Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → were read out in the morning assembly
The sentence says “The good news ... were read out”. This is wrong. “News” ends in -s, but it is a singular noun. It always takes a singular verb. So it must be was read out.
Option 1: The good news from the district sports office — No error.
Option 2: about our school kabaddi team — No error.
Option 3: were read out in the morning assembly — Error. “were” should be “was”.
