it should be: The fact that he did not keep his promise upsets me.
it is 'upsets' cuz 'fact' is uncountable so must be singular

My son wrote 'upsets' too which is incorrect. Originally, he wrote 'upset' but he thought like you about 'the fact' bit.

The 'upset' in the question is in the past tense. Thus it should still remain as 'upset' (past tense).

I put upset at first, but then changed to upsets then changed to made me upset because it sounded more natural to me[/quote]the 'upsets' in the answer is not about the past or present form but the singular or plural. there is no past or present form in upset. both is still the same so it depends on the singular or plural of the subject

Though mcq was difficult, we have to eliminate the wrong ones and choose the correct one wisely. Btw, there is one question, it goes something like that 并把小鸟的（ ）告诉它的妈妈。 wat is the ans?

(情况）is the answer
