Weekly Quiz Competition

Question 1
1 / -0

Which option contains the best topic sentence?

A
Martin Isle is the most polluted island in the world.

B
There are many reasons why Martin Isle is now the world's most polluted island.

C
Martin Isle is an island and it is very polluted.

D
Pollution has destroyed the island of Martin Isle.

Solution

The best topic sentence is Option B. A topic sentence depicts the overall idea of the paragraph in brief and here, in Option B, the idea that various factors have made Martin Isle the most polluted island in the world is made clear very effectively. Options A, C and D are incorrect as they only focus on pollution in the island but do not discuss about the factors promoting pollution in the island.
Question 2
1 / -0

Dear Rohan (1) I hope this letter finds you in best of spirits (2) Sorry I have not been writing as regularly as I should (3)
Where would you include a line gap?

A
After line 1

B
After line 2

C
After line 3

D
After line 1, 2, 3

Solution

According to the accepted format of a letter, be it formal or informal, it is customary to leave a line or a gap between the introductory salutation (Dear Rohan) and the body of the letter (I hope this.....). Hence option A is the correct answer.
In the content part of the letter, we usually leave gaps while segregating them into paragraphs. As this is not the case in the given context options B and C are incorrect.
Option D is incorrect because while we should leave a gap after line 1, we needn't do so after lines 2 and 3.
Question 3
1 / -0

In an informal letter, a line gap is not placed between which of the following?

A
Date and salutation

B
Complimentary close and name

C
Body paragraph 1 and body paragraph 2

D
Building number and town/city name of the sender's address

Solution

An informal letter is a letter that is written in a personal fashion.
One can write it to relatives or friends. But it should not be written in business, professions or to colleagues.
A line-gap should not be provided while providing building number and town/city name of the sender in an informal letter. Thus, option D is the correct answer. Rest of the options can have a line-gap in an informal letter.

Question 10
1 / -0

Directions For Questions

Global Warming:
- A threat
- Caused ecological threat to many countries
- We must check it
- Otherwise it will be too late.
Global warming ________$$[1]$$ the world. It ________$$[2]$$ disturbances. There is a ________$$[3]$$ countries and islands. If we want to save our planet, we ________$$[4]$$. We have to use methods to create ecological balance otherwise it ________$$[5]$$.

...view full instructions

Read the information and fill in blank [3].

A
threatening many

B
disturbance to

C
threat to many

D
way to check

Solution

The context gives us clues clearly. Hence, from the given notes we can infer that "global warming" is a threat and not just a disturbance. Thus, we can rule out option B.
Moving forward, "threatening many" cannot be grammatically placed with the article "a" as given in with the blank in the context. Thus, A is also incorrect. Moving to option D, "way to check" countries and islands makes no sense. Hence, this is also incorrect.
So, only option C makes sense here. Global warming is a "threat to many" countries and islands. Thus, C is the correct answer.
