Detailed Solution

  • Concept: A few words, despite being single in nature, are built up of paired objects and are commonly interpreted as plural: scissors is one of them. 
  • Because scissors are single in form but multiple in meaning, they necessitate a plural pronoun and verb in the provided sentence. 
  • Scissors is one of those words with no singular number. We must discover multiple words to agree with scissors from the possibilities provided. 
  • The phrases 'these and aren't' are plural, but 'this and isn't' are singular. We must use plural words to fill in the holes. 
  • As a result, the right answer is: these aren't. Other alternatives include at least one singular verb or pronoun.
  • Hence, option A is the correct answer.
