I apologize for the incorrect response. The correct answer is A. "The choir was going to sing the National Anthem." The word "choir" is a plural collective noun, referring to a group of singers. The verb "was" is used here because "choir" is considered a single unit.

My apologies for the confusion in my previous response. Only A is correct. The sentence "The choir was going to sing the National Anthem" contains a plural collective noun "choir." Plural collective nouns are treated as singular and take singular verbs.
