  • Question 1
    1 / -0.25

    Directions For Questions

    Read the passage given below and answer the question that follow by selecting the most appropriate option.

    One day in 1924, five men who were camping in the Cascade Mountains of Washington saw a group of huge apelike creatures coming out of the woods. They hurried back to their cabin and locked themselves inside. While they were in, the creatures attacked them by throwing rocks against the walls of the cabin. After several hours, these strange hairy giants went back into the woods. After this incident the men returned to the town and told the people of their adventure. However, only a few people accepted their story. These were the people who remembered hearing tales about footprints of an animal that walked like a human being. The five men, however, were not the first people to have seen these creatures called Bigfoot. Long before their experience, local Native Americans were certain that a race of apelike animals had been living in the neighboring mountain for centuries. They called these creatures Sasquatch. In 1958, workmen, who were building a road through the jungles of Northern California often found huge footprints in the earth around their camp. Then in 1967, Roger Patterson, a man who was interested in finding Bigfoot went into the northern California jungles with a friend. While riding, they were suddenly thrown off from their horses. Patterson saw a tall apelike animal standing not far away. He managed to shoot seven rolls of film of the hairy creature before the animal disappeared in the hushes. When Patterson's film was shown to the public, not many people believed his story. In another incident, Richard Brown, a music teacher and also an experience hunter spotted a similar creature. He saw the animal clearly through the telescopic lens of his rifle. He said the creature looked more like a human than an animal. Later many other people also found deep footprints in the same area. In spite of regular reports of sightings and footprints, most experts still do not believe that Bigfoot really exists.

  • Question 6
    1 / -0.25

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

    He won the match quite easily _________ he was out of practice.

    Solution

    The correct sentence is: "He won the match quite easily even though he was out of practice."

    The blank divides two complete sentences. So the blank must contain conjunction

    The first sentence is 'He won the match quite easily', while the second says that 'he was out of practice'. The second sentence is negative in meaning, in the sense that, it is not supporting the first sentence.

    This means that the first action happened 'in spite of' the second action OR 'He won the match easily despite the fact that he was out of practice'. So, the conjunction in the blank must mean 'in spite of' or 'despite'.

    Thus, the only option that reflects this meaning is 'even though'.
