  • Question 1
    1 / -0.25

    In the sentence, a word is underlined followed by four words/groups of words. Select the option that is nearest in meaning to the underlined word and Choose the correct option.

    The manner in which this exercise has been undertaken leaves much to be desired.

    Solution

    The correct answer is 'Wish for'.

    Desired: strongly wished for or intended, to find somebody or something really attractive.

    For example: Their strategy produced the desired outcome.

    Wish for: feel or express a strong desire or hope for something, desire, want

    For example: We know what she'll be wishing for on her birthday.

  • Question 2
    1 / -0.25

    Choose the correct answer to fill the blanks from the options given below:

    She _________ her daughter to school before she goes to work.

    Solution

    The correct sentence is: She takes her daughter to school before she goes to work.

    In the given fill in blank Option, (A) is the most appropriate. The given sentence is in the present tense.

    Subject + V1 + s/es + Object (Singular) Subject + V1 + Object (Plural)

    For example: The train to Berlin leaves every hour.

    When we use before in clauses in the present tense, the clause refers to the future.

    For example: Before I go to work, I jog for at least an hour.

    Therefore, the correct answer is 'takes'.

  • Question 3
    1 / -0.25

    Choose the correct answer to fill the blanks from the options given below:

    The Mekong is also home _________ the world's largest catfish.

    Solution

    The correct sentence: "The Mekong is also home to the world's largest catfish."

    Option (C) 'to' is the best fit. The phrase 'to be home to something' means to be the place where that thing is located or, in the case of living things, where they live.

    Option (A) 'For' cannot be used because the phrase 'home for something' is incorrect.

    Option (B) 'In' cannot be chosen because 'home in something' does not make any sense in the given context.

    Option (D) 'within' cannot be chosen because it does not make the sentence meaningful.

  • Question 4
    1 / -0.25

    Choose the correct answer to fill the blanks from the options given below:

    After the driver _________ the car out of the bush, we climbed back into the car.

    Solution

    The complete sentence is: After the driver had backed the car out of the bush, we climbed back into the car.

    The second verb of the sentence is 'climbed', which shows simple past tense. The action shown by the first sentence happens 'before' the action of the second sentence, viz, we climbed back into the car. This means that the verb in the blank is showing an action happening even before the action shown by simple past tense verb 'climbed'. So, we must use past perfect tense in such cases. The past perfect tense form is only reflected by the verb 'had backed'.

  • Question 5
    1 / -0.25

    In the following question, sentences of a paragraph have been jumbled and labeled as A, B, C and D. You are required to rearrange the jumbled sentences of the paragraph and mark your response accordingly by selecting the correct option.

    A. But this drive expresses itself in many different ways.

    B. Nietzsche sees the will to power as neither good nor bad.

    C. According to him, it is a basic drive found in everyone.

    D. The philosopher and the scientist direct their will to power into a will to truth.

    Solution

    When ordering the sentences, it is easier to find the first few and then eliminate the options. The first sentence is always independent and introduces a topic. Here, only sentence B is independent and introduces the topic of 'Nietsche and will to power'. So, B must be the first sentence. This order is only shown by option (D).

    Thus, the correct sequence is: BCAD.

  • Question 6
    1 / -0.25

    In the following question, sentences of a paragraph have been jumbled and labeled as A, B, C and D. You are required to rearrange the jumbled sentences of the paragraph and mark your response accordingly by selecting the correct option.

    A: The opposite of demonetization is remonetization, in which a form of payment is restored as legal tender.

    B: Sometimes, a country completely replaces the old currency with a new currency.

    C: The current form or forms of money is pulled from circulation and retired, often to be replaced with new notes or coins. 

    D: Demonetization is the act of stripping a currency unit of its status as legal tender.

    Solution

    D is the first sentence because it introduces the subject of demonetization. C further explains how it is carried out. So, C is the continuation of the explanation of the subject introduced in D. C talks of the replacement of the current form of money with new notes using the word 'often'. And B talks of the replacement using the word 'sometimes'. Both the two sentences refer to the replacement of currencies, so, both should be written subsequently, and placing C before B is contextually more meaningful. A is a different point, so, it must come after DCB.

    Thus, the correct sequence is: DCBA

  • Question 7
    1 / -0.25

    In the following question, sentences of a paragraph have been jumbled and labeled as A, B, C and D. You are required to rearrange the jumbled sentences of the paragraph and mark your response accordingly by selecting the correct option.

    A. Transporting substances to and from our cells is a major function of blood.

    B. Providing immunity and protection against bacteria and viruses is also another function of blood.

    C. Blood is a component of the cardiovascular system.

    D. It is composed of blood cells and an aqueous fluid known as plasma.

    Solution

    When ordering the sentences, it is easier to find the first few and then eliminate the options. The first sentence is always independent and introduces a topic. Here, only sentence C is independent and introduces the topic of 'blood'. So, C must be the first sentence. This order is only given by option (C).

    Thus, the correct sequence is: CDAB.

  • Question 8
    1 / -0.25

    In the following question, sentences of a paragraph have been jumbled and labeled as A, B, C and D. You are required to rearrange the jumbled sentences of the paragraph and mark your response accordingly by selecting the correct option.

    A. It also describes how the elements and principles of artwork together in an art form.

    B. Form is one of the seven elements of art.

    C. It connotes a three-dimensional object in space.

    D. Form is also used to describe the physical nature of the artwork.

    Solution

    When ordering the sentences, it is easier to find the first few and then eliminate the options. The first sentence is always independent and introduces a topic. Here, only sentence B is independent in meaning, which introduces the topic of 'form in as an element of art'. So, B must be the first sentence in the correct order. Out of the given options, only option (D) begins with B.

    Thus, the correct sequence is: BCAD.

  • Question 9
    1 / -0.25

    In the following question, sentences of a paragraph have been jumbled and labeled as A, B, C and D. You are required to rearrange the jumbled sentences of the paragraph and mark your response accordingly by selecting the correct option.

    A: So he told his son that for every careless act of his he would hammer a nail into a wooden pillar in their house, and for every positive act he would pull out one nail.

    B: The boy saw that the pillar was getting crowded with nails and realised his mistake.

    C: A father wanted to inculcate a sense of responsibility in his careless son.

    D: He resolved to change his behaviour and soon the nails started coming out, till there were none left.

    Solution

    A father wanted to inculcate a sense of responsibility in his careless son. So he told his son that for every careless act of his he would hammer a nail into a wooden pillar in their house, and for every positive act he would pull out one nail. The boy saw that the pillar was getting crowded with nails and realised his mistake. He resolved to change his behaviour and soon the nails started coming out, till there were none left.

    Thus, the correct sequence is: CABD.

  • Question 10
    1 / -0.25

    In the sentence, a word is underlined followed by four words/groups of words. Select the option that is nearest in meaning to the underlined word and Choose the correct option.

    Many communication problems can be attributed directly to misunderstandings and inaccuracies.

    Solution

    The correct answer is 'Ascribed'.

    Attributed: regard something as caused by, to believe that something was caused or done by somebody/something.

    For example: Many ancient peoples attributed natural phenomenon such as lightning and volcanoes to the emotions of gods.

    Ascribed: regard something as being due to, to say that something was written by or belonged to somebody; to say what caused something.

    For example: These differences cannot be ascribed to the action of environment upon each generation.
