    3 / -1

    Directions(Q1-Q10): In the following question, out of the four alternatives, select the alternative which will improve the bracketed part of the sentence. In case no improvement is needed, select no improvement. 

    Q. "She is (the best and wisest) girl in the class."

  • Question 2
    3 / -1

    "The people of Japan are (wiser than America)."

    Solution

    There is a comparison between people of Japan and people of America. Since the comparison is between plurals, “those of” will be used instead of “than of” which is used with singular. 

  • Question 3
    3 / -1

    "I absolutely must (seen) him, however painful it may be for me."

    Solution

    Must should be followed by a verb in simple present. Hence, the answer should be "must see".

    When talking about actions and behavior, then the subject is followed by verb + being + (adverb) adjective.

  • Question 6
    3 / -1

    "She glanced back to make sure she (wasn't to be) observed."
