  3. costumes, makeup, and props was left
  4. costumes, makeup, and props were all left
  5. costumes, makeup, and props have been left

Correct Answer: C

Explanation:

The correct answer is C. The verb in the underlined phrase is were left. Since the subject is singular (trunk) the verb must be singular—was instead of were. Don’t assume that the subject immediately precedes the verb; in this case, the subject and verb are some distance apart.
