  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Complete the following sentence using the correct form of the verb in the brackets.

    Mr. Gupta's servant _______ (steal) the money yesterday.
    Solution
    From the given options, the correct word to be used is A) stole.
    Option B) steal is incorrect because 'steal' is in the present tense. However, the word 'yesterday' in the sentence indicates that the 'stealing' happened in the past.
    Option C) stolen would have been correct if the blank was preceded by 'had'.
    Option D) were stealing is incorrect because there is only one servant and 'were' is plural.
    So, the correct answer is A) stole, which is in the simple past tense. 
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    In the sentence given below, one word has been omitted. Identify the missing word as well as the words which come before and after it.

    In the Middle ages, most towns dirty.
    Solution
    The sentence is talking about the Middle ages which was a period of time in the past. The sentence is in the simple past tense. So, the best answer is option D) towns were dirty, since we require the simple past tense.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Choose the correct word or phrase to complete the sentence.

    I _________ her a joke but even that didn't make her smile.
    Solution

    The correct option is C) Tried telling.

    I usually ____ in the river in the summer holidays.
    Solution
    The correct answer here is Option B) - 'Swim'. This is because this word satisfies the rules of proper grammatical convention the best and follows the tense of the sentence as well (in this case, primarily present). The answer is swim because when we talk about habits ('usually'), we often use the simple present tense to describe it . All other options are incorrect.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the correct form of the verb given in the bracket:
    What ____ your father know about the revolution? (do)
    Solution
    Options A and B are wrong since they would make the sentence grammatically incorrect.
    Option D) do is wrong because 'do' is used for plural nouns while 'father' is singular.
    Hence, option C) does is the right answer.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    A sentence can be formed when A, B, C, and D are put in order. Identify the part which has an error. 
    Solution
    A) He stole the pen- past tense
    B) But he giving is grammatically wrong. Giving is in the present continuous tense. 
    C) and D) are correct.
    So, the wrong option is B) But he giving.
    The sentence should read, 'He stole the pen but he gave it back because he felt guilty.'
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Choose the best answer from (A), (B), (C) or (D), to complete sentence.
    I will repair my camera as soon as I ____ what's wrong it.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    There is a word missing in the sentence given below. Choose the option which contains the correct missing word with the word before and after it.

    The more we throw, the more litter is produced. So, scientists are trying to make plastics which can be easily broken down.
    Solution
    Option A) more is litter is incorrect grammatically.
    Option B) litter was produced is wrong because the sentence is talking about something that happens in the present. So 'was', being in the past tense, is not the right word here.
    Option D) litter is being produced is incorrect because the original sentence states the verb 'throw' which is in the simple present tense form. So we require the same tense for the rest of the sentence.
    The correct answer is option C) litter is produced.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Use the correct form of the verb in the brackets.

    He _____ (be) here next Sunday.
