Explanation:

Question 1

The subject "Ernest" is a singular third - person noun. In the simple present tense, a singular third - person subject takes a verb with an "s" or "es" ending. Among the options, "runs" is the correct form for a singular third - person subject, while "run" is the base form (used for plural subjects or with modal verbs, etc.).

The subject "none of the new home improvements" - when "none" is used with a plural noun (here "improvements"), the verb can be plural. Also, the phrase "until the spring" indicates a future action, and "are going" is the correct plural form of the present continuous (which can be used for future arrangements) here. "is going" is singular and does not agree with the plural subject "improvements".

The subject "The tunnels" is a plural noun. In the present tense, a plural subject takes the verb "are", while "is" is used for singular subjects. So we need to choose the verb that agrees with the plural subject "tunnels".

Answer:

A. runs (assuming the first option is "runs" and the second is "run")
