Weekly Quiz Competition

Question 1
1 / -0

P : I think it is a good idea to ban autos from the city centre.
Q : You need to realize that to save a rupee is to earn a rupee.

Which of the above statements is/are correct? [Advanced]

A
Both are right

B
Both are wrong

C
Only P is right

D
Only Q is right

Solution

In the first sentence, the 'good idea' is mentioned for the first time hence it requires the article 'a' to be put ahead of it, and city centre is a government district and not a proper noun. Also, it is known to the listener because it is a geographical unit of the city, hence 'the' is used. The first statement is correct, and so is the second statement. The phrase 'to save a rupee is to earn a rupee' is more of a saying, which refers to the rupee as any rupee, not just a specific one, hence 'a' is used, making the second statement correct as well. Since both the statements are correct, Option A is the answer and the other options are incorrect for the above mentioned reasons.
Question 2
1 / -0

Complete the sentence with the correct word from the given options.

He had fallen down _______ previous evening and was now in hospital.

A
A

B
An

C
The

D
Yesterday

Solution

The sentence already mentions 'previous evening' which means 'yesterday evening' and so option D) is incorrect. The sentence clearly specifies the date and time when the subject fell down and so we need to use the definite article 'the'. The correct answer is, therefore, option C) The. 'A' and 'An' cannot be used here as they are indefinite articles.
Question 3
1 / -0

Complete the sentence with the correct word from the given options.

There is ______ large hospital nearby.

A
a

B
an

C
the

D
and

Solution

The sentence states the presence of one large hospital nearby. Since there is no particular hospital that is being mentioned, we cannot use the definitive article 'the'. 'And' is used to join two parts of a sentence but it is not required in the given sentence. 'An' is used before a word that begins with a vowel sound. So, the most appropriate answer is option A) A.

He gave all his money to _________. [Advanced]

A
poor

B

Since 'poor' here refers to a specific section of the society, we use the article 'the' before it. So, the correct option is C) the poor.

When he was in ____ shower, he heard the phone ring.

A
The

B
A

A
A

B
For

C

When he heard ______ news, Thomas was very worried.

A
A

B
An

C

D
Over

Solution

Here, the sentence mentions a very specific news which got Thomas worried. So, the most appropriate word that completes the sentence is option C) The. 'Over' is incorrect in the given context. Since 'news' is an uncountable noun, 'A' and 'An' cannot be used.
