He likes rice, but Laura does not. Plural subjects require plural verbs. They walk to the park, but the dogs run.

4. When a sentence has a verb phrase, the subject must agree with the first helping verb. Joseph has been practicing his drum routine. Even when a word, phrase, or clause comes between a subject and its verb, the subject and verb must still agree. Joseph, a stickler for perfection in all things, has been practicing his drum routine.
