TEST anxiety

So I've been studying hard for the Praxis. The last time I took a practice test I scored 27 points above what I need to to pass Louisiana standards. I think I'll be fine, but it's a little nerve racking. Here are some questions that would be on the test, that you should probably know. I didn't give you any math questions because they all involve diagrams (since when did K-5th grade need to know the area of a triangle?) anyway, See how you do:

1. Manuel is the tallest of the two boys.
Which of the following statements about the above sentence is true?

a. The sentence is written correctly.
b. The subject and verb do not agree.
c. The word "boys" should be possessive.
