    Fill in the blank by choosing the best option for [1]:
    Solution
    The correct format of writing the date (in India and most other countries) is: Day/Month/Year.
    Option A follows the Day/Month/Year (24/January/20XX) format. Hence A is the correct option.
    Option B is incorrect because the year is not mentioned.
    Option C is incorrect because the format is in Month/Day/Year format, which is an American format.
    Option D is incorrect because the month is not mentioned in words. In a formal notice, it is preferred that the month is written in word form: January. The month is spelled out, to avoid a confusion between the day and month due to different date formats.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0

    Directions For Questions

    [passage-header]Read the notice given below and answer the question that follows:
    [/passage-header]                                    PINK PATEL PUBLIC SCHOOL, PANVEL
                                                                   NOTICE
    March 01, 20XX

    What is wrong with the tone of content? 
    Solution
    Option C: It is too informal
    The lines "This will be helpful for you buddy, so do come. I will wait for you." are in an informal tone, as the words 'buddy' and 'I will wait for you' are not used in formal and public notices. Hence C is the correct option.
    Option A: The notice is grammatically sound. Only the tone of the content is informal. Hence A is incorrect.
    Option B: The notice is not formal. On the contrary, the notice is supposed to be too formal. Hence B is incorrect.
    Option D is incorrect because the answer lies in C.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0

    [passage-header]Read the notice given below and answer the question that follows:
    [/passage-header]                                    PINK PATEL PUBLIC SCHOOL, PANVEL

    Choose the most appropriate title for this notice. 
    Solution
    Option B: From these options, B sounds most appropriate. The notice is regarding a talk on career options, hence 'Choose Your Career' gives an idea of what the notice is going to be about. So, option B is correct.
    Option A: This heading sounds vague, as one cannot 'talk to their career'. 'Career' is an abstract noun and cannot be spoken to. Also, the talk is 'about' career and it is not directed 'to' the career. Hence A is incorrect.
    Option C: This does not give the brief idea behind the notice. The title 'Career and Us' indicates a relation between career and 'us', the school. This relation is neither mentioned, nor implied by the notice. Hence C is incorrect.
    Option D is irrelevant to the notice, one cannot be invited for career. (Although, one can be invited for a career talk, and that isn't mentioned.) Hence option D is incorrect.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0

    What is lacking in content?
    Solution
    A basic format of a notice is as follows:
    Name of Institution/Company (In the center)
    NOTICE (In the center)
    Date (left hand side)
    Topic (In capital letters)
    Body (main content)
    Venue, Date and Time
    Signature of the issuing person (left)
    Name and Designation (left)

    In the given notice in question, there is no venue, date or time of the event mentioned. Also, in the body, the person who will conduct the talk on "Career options after XII" is also not mentioned. Hence, D is the correct option as all three options are lacking in the notice.
    Options A, B and C are individually, incorrect.

  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    The following is an example of __________.

    XYZ Ltd. announces with deep grief the passing away of its Chairman, Dr. Manmohan Singh in a helicopter crash near Pune on Sunday. His mortal remains will be consigned to flames at Vaikunth Ghat, Pune on Monday, 25th March 2018 at 11.30 a.m.
    Solution
    Since the information is about someone's death, it is an obituary. As the information is formally announced, it is a notice.  Hence, Option C is correct. The rest of the options do not adhere to this rule, hence incorrect. 

  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    The following is an example of ___________
    Dear Soniya,
     I am distressed to learn about the sudden passing away of your dear husband Samir during my absence from India.I find it very hard to believe it and still feel he will suddenly show up in office and shake my hand vigorously as he always did.I know that your loss is much greater and that it will be very difficult for you to forget him.
       I pray to the Almighty to give you and your children courage to bear his loss.
    May his soul  rest in peace!
                                                                                                                      Yours sincerely, 
                                                                                                                    Naksh Pavan Zad
    Solution
    Since the letter expresses sympathy to someone who has lost her husband, it is a letter of condolence. Hence, Option C is correct. The rest of the options do not adhere to this rule, hence incorrect. 

  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Choose the important points for writing an essay:
    Solution
    The most important points that one should keep in mind before attempting to write an essay is to choose a topic, sort the ideas and pen down a thesis statement. So, all of the options are viable. Hence, Option D is correct which includes all the above options.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    What is an effective claim in an argumentative essay?
    Solution
    An effective claim in an 'argumentative essay' is a true statement that can be proven using 'facts and cannot be countered'.  
    EXPLANATION:
    An argumentative essay is an essay that consists of two-sided views on a topic. Either both the views are presented in a balanced manner or anyone's view is supported with relevant evidence or finding.  
    Hence, an effective claim in an argumentative essay will be a true statement that is not hypothetical and can be proved with the help of evidence and facts. Facts can never be denied or encountered. They are not debatable at all. Hence, it can be described as an effective claim.
