Detailed Solution

Concept- A swarm of bees  is building a hive outside the house.
Here swarm is a collective noun means it is collection of bees and for collective noun we use singular verb.
Collection of bees form swarm and therefore it is collective noun and collective noun is treated as singular so option 2 and 4 directly got eliminated as it these are plural in nature.Option 3 is also wrong because the word am ia used to refer itself.Hence option 1 is right answer because it is singular verb.
Hence, option 1 is correct.
