Swaroop, Thank you for your answers. But I have had some problems. First,I see a plural verb still follows none. Ex: None of these pens works / work. But what I'm not sure is that none is used for 3 items, right ?:hmm: Ex: We had 3cats once - none of them is / are alive now. Second, in the second sentence, if D is also incorrect, should we choose A or D ? Or farmed family is a usage, too ?:hmm: Thanks in advance!:)

Some questions from ETS I'm a newcomer. Hope everyone will help me. 1.None two butterflies have exactly the same design on their wings. A is incorrect. But none is replaced by no or none of ? 2. Jessamyn West's first and most famous novel, The Friendly Persuasion, describes the life of a Quaker farmed farmily in the mid-1800's. A is incorrect. But first and most famous must be replaced by the first and most famous or the first and the most famous ? And I think D is incorrect, too. It must be farming family, right ? Thank you ! :)
