...view full instructions

Read the information and fill in blank [4].

A
must not be late

B
must create ecological

C
threat to many

D
must check it

Solution

The context has an "if" conditional clause at the start of the sentence. This is a type I conditional where it is possible to fulfil the condition given in the "if"clause.
Thus, option C can be ruled out. As, option B seems incomplete, it can also be ruled out.
Option D is correct as "checking" something is putting a stop to it. Here, the reference is to global warming, and it can be stopped and checked as it matches the information given in the notes.
A is also incorrect as it does not connect to the context.
Question 2

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 [5].

A
cause disturbance

B
will be too late

C
will be threat

D
should be checked

Solution

The context uses the adverb "otherwise" to indicate what else could happen. Thus, the context refers to a possible future consequence. Also, from the notes given with reference to the context we can infer that option B is the correct answer. It refers to a possible consequence in the future, "will bee too late".
A is incorrect as there is a missing auxiliary verb. Hence, this is grammatically incorrect.
C is incorrect as the alternative to creating ecological balance cannot possibly be a threat (without mentioning from whom the threat might be).
D is incorrect as this option does not give a contrast as a consequence.
Question 3
1 / -0

Given above is the format of an informal letter. Fill in the 23rd blank with the correct option from the given options.

A
Subscription (ending)

B
Date

C
Salutation

D
Address of sender

Solution

Subscription is the act of signing one's name. In a formal letter, the box numbered 23 is the subscription.
A salutation is a greeting. The most common form of salutation in an English letter is Dear followed by the recipient's given name or title.
Date in a formal letter is usually written in left top corner of the page, however sometimes it can be write on the center of the page top.
The sender's address is usually put on the top right-hand corner of the page. The address should be complete and accurate in case the recipient of the letter wishes to get in touch with the sender for further communication.
Question 4
1 / -0

Given above is the format of an informal letter. Fill in the 21st blank with the correct option from the given options.

A
Subject

B
Address of the receiver

C
Address of the sender

D
Salutation

Solution

A salutation is a greeting used in a letter and can be formal or informal. The most common form of salutation in an English letter is Dear followed by the recipient's given name or title and it comes before the main body of the letter. As we can infer from the given format, 22 is the main body of the letter. Thus, 21 can only be the salutation. It is "Dear Abc" in an informal letter.
The subject is written in formal letters. So, A is incorrect.
B and C are not written at the blank 21, and are incorrect.
Question 5
1 / -0

Which of the following is not a preliminary step in paragraph writing?

A
Read the topic carefully

B
Look for key terms or words in the topic

C
Start writing without any preparation

D
Think about what you already know about the topic

Solution

The correct answer is Option C.
The question is on which of the given options is not an important step in paragraph writing.
Paragraph writing is to be done on a given topic.
1. The first step, therefore, is to read the topic. Thus, option A is not the correct answer.
2. On reading the topic, one should then look for important words in the topic to know what is to be written in the paragraph. This being one of the initial steps makes option B the incorrect answer.
3. Before starting to write a paragraph, on has to think about the topic, by drawing a rough diagram/outline or by jotting down points. Therefore, Option D is incorrect.
4. One is not supposed to start writing a paragraph without any preparation as it will lead to a scattered/incohesive paragraph. This is not a preliminary step in paragraph writing. Therefore, Option C is the correct answer.
Question 6
1 / -0

Which of the following is a characteristic of a good conclusion of a paragraph?

A
Summarizing the points stated in the paragraph

B
Using linking words that indicate conclusions being drawn

C
Repeating words or phrases from the topic sentence

D
All of the above

Solution

The correct answer is Option D.
A good conclusion is an essential of a well written paragraph.
It is not merely the last line of the paragraph. It summarizes the points stated in the paragraph. Linking words like hence, therefore etc are used to link the ideas to the conclusion. Repeating words from the topic sentence in a conclusion helps to remind the reader the directing and controlling force of the paragraph.
Hence 'All of the above' - Option D is the correct answer.
Question 7
1 / -0

The essential elements of paragraph writing are _________________.

A
understanding, topic, writer's intelligence and length.

B
unity, order, coherence and completeness.

C
details, continuity and information.

D
introduction, conclusion and body.

Solution

The true intent of a paragraph is to express coherent points. The main idea of a paragraph always flows in one direction. As soon as this idea changes, the paragraph also changes.
Hence, a paragraph has one idea and everything familiar that naturally flows with it fits into one single paragraph. Thus, first is unity.
Secondly, a paragraph must follow an order. As ideas in a paragraph should not be random, They should be arranged into a logical chronological order that flows in one direction making it easier to read.
Thirdly, the main idea of the paragraph should not be hanging loose. There should be coherence to interpret the main idea.
Lastly, the paragraph ought be complete in itself.
Therefore, B is correct.
A is incorrect as topic and length are very loose basis to form a paragraph on.
C is incorrect as information can be random also.
D is incorrect as conclusion always comes at last. Hence, rendering this option incorrect.
Question 8
1 / -0

The last step in paragraph writing is-

A
Conclusion

B
Stating examples

C
Revision and proofreading

D
Topic sentence

Solution

The correct answer is Option C.
The conclusion summarizes the paragraph, but is followed by rechecking, revising and proofreading the paragraph. Therefore not being the last step in paragraph writing, Option A is incorrect.
Stating examples is a part of the illustration of the main idea of the paragraph and one of the middle stages in paragraph writing, making Option B the incorrect option.
The topic sentence is the controlling idea of the paragraph - hence option D is not the correct answer.
As mentioned above, revision and proofreading for errors in the paragraph is the last step in the paragraph writing.
Option C is the correct answer.
Question 9
1 / -0

A

B
Address of the sender

C
Date of writing

D
Salutation

Solution

Here, we have to explain the format of the letter. The 20th blank in the letter is the place where we usually write the date. Let's have a look at the options.
Option A - 'Subject' is written in a formal letter. As the question states, that the given format is of an informal letter, we must not write the subject. Hence, option A is incorrect.
Option B - 'Address of the sender' has to be written on the top left side of the paper. The address of the sender will be written in the 19th blank.
Option D - 'Salutation' is always written after the address and the date, i.e., in the third line. Hence, option D is incorrect.
