  • Question 1
    1 / -0

    Select the word which means the same as the group of words given.

    Sound of horses

    Solution

    Let's look at the meaning of the correct answer:

    Neigh - the sound of horses. For Example: With a wild neigh of terror the animal fell bodily into the pit, drawing the buggy and its occupants after him.

  • Question 2
    1 / -0

    Choose the appropriate word in the blank from the given alternatives.

    On entering the home , he found all jewels ___________.

    Solution

    On entering the home, he found all jewels stolen.

    • As the given sentence is in Past Tense; hence the Verb must be use in 'Past Tense' to make a grammatically correct sentence.
    • Thus, option (D) i.e. stolen is the correct choice.

    Let's see the other options-

    • Option (A) and (B) i.e. 'steal and steals' are the first form of Verb and they will be incorrect as per the context of the given sentence.
    • Option (C) i.e. stealing is a Gerund/ Noun which cannot be used  as a verb in the given sentence.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0

    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 4
    1 / -0

    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 5
    1 / -0

    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 6
    1 / -0

    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 7
    1 / -0

    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 8
    1 / -0

  • Question 9
    1 / -0

    Fill in the blanks with the suitable tense of the verb:

    She informed him that he __________ exactly on the same date of the tragedy.

    Solution

    She informed him that he had come exactly on the same date of the tragedy.

    The simple past is a verb tense that is used to talk about things that happened or existed before now.

    • If two actions take place in succession in the past, the 1st action will be in the past perfect and the subsequent action will be in the simple past tense.
    • For example:
      • ​He had gone before I reached there.
    • Since the given sentence is in the past tense, 'had come' will be the most appropriate choice as per the rule given above.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
