Explanation

Choice C is the best answer. The convention being tested is subject-verb agreement. The singular verb "is" agrees in number with the singular subject "village."

Choice B is incorrect because the plural verb "have been" doesn’t agree in number with the singular subject "village." Choice D is incorrect because the plural verb "are" doesn’t agree in number with the singular subject "village."
