I read and study every day. My sister does not study. She is always on her phone, scrolling through Facebook and Instagram almost every day. 

Sentence 2: The predicate is "study", but we use the phrasal verb "does not", which is third singular person. Who does not study? --> "My sister", that is the subject and it is the third singular person. The subject and the verb agree.
