Correct Answer:
C. takes
Correct answer: takes. The proverb is “It takes two to make a quarrel”, meaning both sides share the blame.
Background: The proverb is written in the simple present tense.
- took: “Took” changes the tense of the proverb.
- take: “Take” does not agree with the singular subject “it”.
- None of these: “None of these” is incorrect because “takes” is correct.
