Answer options

  1. were supposed
  2. No improvement
  3. are supposing
  4. is supposed

Correct answer and explanation

Correct answer: is supposed

Explanation: The correct answer is D. The subject "weather" is uncountable and takes a singular verb. Hence, "are supposed" is incorrect. Correct sentence: The weather on the weekend is supposed to be sunny. ✅"Is supposed" agrees correctly with the singular noun "weather". ❌"Are supposing" is grammatically incorrect and awkward in this context. ❌"Were supposed" changes the tense unnecessarily.
