2) The jury are arguing among themselves.
[The jury refers to members of jury]
4) The girls or John is responsible for the decorations.
[The verb agrees with the subject nearer it. Using “and”, you change the meaning of the sentence.]
16) Joe and I were the only ones who failed the test.

I agree with with 龜博士 except the following:


3) Mr. Jones, together with several neighbours, was waiting at the school.
( here the subject Mr. Jones, is singular. 'together with several neighbours' is only an adjective clause)

10) Neither paper is acceptable for a final grade.

16) Joe and I were the only ones to fail the test.

17) Between you and me, this should never have happened.

18) We will divide the money between you and me.

19) Please send Jim and me that money by Friday.


23) Cheating is when someone copies from another.
