1. _______

A
When

B
That

C
But

D
And

Solution

Conjunctions are words that link other words, phrases or clauses together. 'That' is used as conjunction after some verbs, adjectives and nouns to introduce a new part of the sentence. Thus, option C is the correct answer. 'Life' is a noun in the sentence after which 'that' should be used. 'But' is used to show contrast. 'And' is used to link two equal parts of the sentence. 'When' is used to denote time.
Question 7
1 / -0

Fill in the blank using the correct options given:
"Which movie did you enjoy more, The Ice Age or Home Alone?" "I enjoyed ________ of these movies."

A
all

B
either

C
both

D
any

Solution

Option A - 'All' means 'every'. It is used for more than one items and not just two. For example, 'All the people loved the movie.' Since 'both' is more suitable, we will not use 'all'. As the sentence describes just two movies, we can't use 'all' here. Thus option A is incorrect.
Option B - 'Either' means 'anyone of the options'. For example, 'I want either of these dresses.' The question asks which movie does the person like, the answer can't be 'either of these', as there has to be a specific name of the movie. Hence, we can't use 'either' here. Thus option B is incorrect.
Option D - 'Any' means 'one of something'. For example, 'I don't have any choice.' As the sentence doesn't explain choice, we can't use 'any'. Thus option D is incorrect.
Option C - 'Both' is used to explain 'two'. For example, 'Both of these dresses look good on you.' As the given sentence explains that the person likes both the movies, we can use 'both' here. Thus option C is the correct answer.
"Which movie did you enjoy more, The Ice Age or Home Alone?" "I enjoyed both of these movies."
Question 8
1 / -0

Use the appropriate conjunctional phrase to form a sentence:
He had returned. Immediately he went off.

A
No sooner had he returned, but he went off.

B
No sooner had he returned, than he went off.

C
No sooner had he returned, then he went off.

D
None of the above are correct.

Solution

"No sooner....than" is a correlative conjunction i.e "no sooner" and "than" are used as pairs in the same sentence. They are used to show that one event happens immediately after another. When "no sooner" is used in the beginning of a sentence, the auxiliary verb, 'had' is followed by the subject.

Among the given options, the word, "No sooner" appears along with the word, "than" only in option B. In the given sentence, the subject is "he". Hence, "No sooner had he returned, than he went off" is the correct option.
Options A and C are incorrect because, "no sooner" does not appear along with the words, "but" or "then".
Option D is incorrect as option B is the correct answer.
Question 9

A
Since

B
And

C
Because

D
But

Solution

Conjunctions are words used to link other words, phrase or clauses. 'But' is used to show contrast in the sentence. Here, the contrast is that though bell rang but there was no one at the door. Thus, option D is the correct answer. 'And' is used to link two equal phrases. 'Because' is used to provide reason of something. 'Since' is used to denote time.

A

B

D

Solution

Conjunctions are the words that link other words, phrases or clauses together. 'Because' is used for giving reasons. Here, people of different religions living together and helping one another is the reason how Indian can be made a happy country according to Gandhiji. Thus, option D is the correct answer.
Option 'A' 'Otherwise' means in other respect or ways. Hence it is inappropriate for the given sentence.
Option 'B' 'What' is used for asking questions. Hence it is incorrect for the given question.
Option 'C' 'So' provides the reason or purpose of something. Hence it does not fit in the given sentence.
Thus option 'D' is the correct answer.
