Correct sentence: Everyone on the bus was shocked and screamed.

Why?

  1. Everyone means all the people, but in grammar it acts like one person. So we say was, not were.
  2. We usually say on the bus when talking about passengers riding it.
  3. Was shocked and screamed tell us what happened to the people.

So the corrected sentence is: Everyone on the bus was shocked and screamed.
