The sentence that has a correct subject-verb agreement is:

A) My cousin, along with two friends, is arriving today.

Explanation: The words ‘along with, besides, as well as, not, etc.’ separates the subject from the verb. These words are not a part of the subject. These words should be ignored. A singular verb should be used if the subject singular.
