आपने शायद यह सोचाWhat you probably thought'All that is needed for the bill to pass' कर्ता के रूप में अधूरा लगा। परंतु यह उचित All-उपवाक्य है; दोष उसके बाद की बहुवचन क्रिया 'are' में है।'All that is needed for the bill to pass' looked incomplete as a subject. But it is a proper All-clause; the fault is the plural 'are' after it.
आपने शायद यह सोचाWhat you probably thought'and a signature from the presiding officer' से सूची बहुवचन बनी, जिससे 'are' उचित लगा। परंतु सूची क्रिया तय नहीं करती; यह भाग स्वयं शुद्ध है।'and a signature from the presiding officer' seemed to make the list plural, supporting 'are'. But the list does not decide the verb; this part itself is correct.
आपने शायद यह सोचाWhat you probably thought'to certify the vote' अकेला infinitive-सा लगा। परंतु वह हस्ताक्षर का उद्देश्य ठीक बताता है; दोष All-उपवाक्य के बाद 'are' में है।'to certify the vote' looked like a stray infinitive. But it correctly states the purpose of the signature; the fault is 'are' after the All-clause.
Answer और ExplanationAnswer and explanation
Answer: (B) are a simple majority
All that is needed ... are को देखिए।
Concept: all-cleft एक ही विचार होता है, इसलिए verb (क्रिया) एकवचन रहता है: All that is needed ... is। उसके बाद आए बहुवचन nouns (संज्ञा) verb को नहीं बदलते।
✓
All that is needed for the bill to pass is a simple majority and a signature from the presiding officer to certify the vote.
'is needed' दोषी लगता है, किंतु वही सही एकवचन रूप है।
सरल अर्थ: बिल के पारित होने के लिए केवल एक साधारण बहुमत और सभा-अध्यक्ष के हस्ताक्षर की आवश्यकता है, ताकि मतदान प्रमाणित हो सके।
Look at All that is needed ... are.
Concept: an all-cleft is one idea, so the verb is singular: All that is needed ... is. The plural nouns after it do not change it.
✓
All that is needed for the bill to pass is a simple majority and a signature from the presiding officer to certify the vote.
'is needed' tempts as the culprit, but it is the correct singular.
