  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blanks with the most appropriate option:
    Sue has applied for the job but she isn't very well qualified for it. I _____ (be) surprised if she ______ (get) it.
    Solution
    Option C is the correct answer because according to the speaker, if she gets the job in the future, he will be shocked, ‘will be’ is correct as it is in the future tense. 
    Option D is incorrect because although ‘will get’ is is in the future tense, the speaker states that the job has been applied for in the present, so her getting the job would be in the present. 
    Option A is incorrect because ‘I is surprised ‘ is totally incorrect usage, I am would be correct, but as the speaker would be surprised in the future if she gets the job, hence is/am are both incorrect. 
    Option B is incorrect because ‘have been’ is present continuous, and is used when he has to say that he’s been surprised for quite a long time, but it is incorrect because she hasn’t gotten the job yet. 
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Choose a suitable option to fill in the blank: 
    We were in a very difficult position. We _____ (not/know) what to do.
    Solution
    The simple past (also called past simple, past indefinite) is a verb tense which is used to show that a completed action took place at a specific time in the past. The simple past is also frequently used to talk about past habits and generalizations. The simple past is formed using the verb + ed. Questions and negative forms in statements are made with did and did not.
    Since, we are talking about an action which has happened in the past, we will be using simple past tense. This is a statement in negative form, thus we are going to use did not/didn't
    Option C is correct. 
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with correct form of verb:
    Mary ____ to Australia for a while but she's back again now. (go)
    Solution
    The simple past (also called past simple, past indefinite) is a verb tense which is used to show that a completed action took place at a specific time in the past. The simple past is also frequently used to talk about past habits and generalizations. The simple past is formed using the verb + ed. Questions and negative forms in statements are made with did and did not.
    Since, we are talking about an action which has happened in the past, we will be using simple past tense. In this case the verb is "go". The past tense of go is went.
    Option A is correct
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most suitable option with the help of the hint in the bracket:
    The temperature was 25 degrees. Now it is only 17.
    The temperature ______________ further. (prediction)
    Solution
    The simple future is a verb tense that’s used to talk about things that haven’t happened yet or to make a prediction about a forthcoming event, here, the dropping of the temperature. We use the simple future to talk about an action or condition that will begin and end in the future. The formula for the simple future is will + [root form of verb], that is, will fall. Hence, Option B is correct. 
    The rest of the options do not express this condition. They either mention actions that have already happened (options C and D) or continuous actions that are happening in the present (option A).
    Hence these options are incorrect.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blanks with suitable forms of the verbs given in the brackets:
    I want to ___ (see) Margaret before she ____ (go) out.
    Solution
    Option C is the correct answer because ‘goes’ is the present simple form of ‘go’ which is used with he/she/ it. To see, means to watch or visualise something from the eyes, hence it is correct to say that the speaker wanted to see Margaret before she goes. 
    Option A is incorrect because it is in the past tense while the statement is in the present tense 
    Option B is incorrect because ‘will see’ isn’t the future tense, whereas the statement is in the present tense. 
    Option D is incorrect becaue ‘is seeing’ is used for third person statements.although it is in the present tense, it is incorrect because isseeing is never preceded by ‘to’. 
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Complete the sentence using the appropriate option:

    I don't want to go without you. I _______ (wait) until you _______ (be) ready.
    Solution
    The first statement 'don't want to go' expresses a wish for something that has not happened yet. Hence the next statement will express the future tense.
    Option C: 'Will wait... are' explains an action 'to wait' till the time ('until') the listener 'you' is ready.
    The verb forms are relevant to the given sentence: 'I' will wait till the time 'you' are ready.
    'Will wait' and 'are' are both in simple future tense. Sometimes, we use the simple present verb (like 'are') to refer to a future action. In these cases, we see the words 'when, until, after, etc' before the simple present verbs.
    Here too we see 'until' before the verb 'are'.
    Hence option C is correct.

    Option A: 'Will wait... will be' is not the correct option. 'Will be' does not agree with the word 'until'. 'Until' is often seen before simple present verbs that refer to future events, whereas 'will be' is in simple future tense. The meaning differs between both tenses.
    Option B: 'Will wait... have been' is also not the correct option. 'Have been' is in present perfect tense. It expresses an action that has just completed. But the word 'until' expresses an action that is yet to happen.
    Option D: 'Have waited... have been' express the present perfect tense, whereas the sentence expresses the future tense.
    Hence option D is incorrect.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Choose the appropriate option from the given sentence:
    You and a friend come home very late. Other people in the house are asleep. Your friend is noisy.
    YOU: Shhh! Don't make so much noise. ___________ everybody up. (you/wake)
    Solution
    The simple future is a verb tense that’s used to talk about things that haven’t happened yet, here, waking everybody up. We use the simple future to talk about an action or condition that will begin and end in the future. The formula for the simple future is will + [root form of verb], that is, (subject) 'you' will wake, or, you'll wake. Hence, Option B is correct.
    The rest of the options do not express this condition. They either mention actions that have already happened (option D), actions that are happening in the present (option C) or actions that are hypothetical/unreal (option A).
    Hence these options are incorrect.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank using the appropriate form of the verb:
    I meant to phone Diane last night but I _______ (forget) to.
    Solution
    The simple past (also called past simple, past indefinite) is a verb tense which is used to show that a completed action took place at a specific time in the past. The simple past is also frequently used to talk about past habits and generalizations. The simple past is formed using the verb + ed. Questions and negative forms in statements are made with did and did not.
    Since, we are talking about an action which has happened in the past, we will be using simple past tense. In this case, the verb is forget, the simple past form is, "forgot"
    Option B is correct
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the verb in its correct form:
    I _______ very tired. So I lay down on the bed and went to sleep. (be)
    Solution
    The simple past (also called past simple, past indefinite) is a verb tense which is used to show that a completed action took place at a specific time in the past. The simple past is also frequently used to talk about past habits and generalizations. The simple past is formed using the verb + ed. Questions are made with did and negative forms are made with did not.
    Since, we are talking about an action which has happened in the past, we will be using simple past tense. 
    Now, in this particular sentence the verb "be" has come into picture. It is also irregular in the simple past. Unlike other irregular verbs, there are two simple past forms: "was" and "were." It also has different question forms and negative forms. 
    In this case, the simple past tense verb is "was"
    Option C is correct. 
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Choose the most suitable option to fill in the blank:
    A friend of yours is going to visit London. You want to know where she is going to stay.
    You ask : Where are you going to stay when ________?
    Solution
    Option C is the correct answe because according to the statement, the speaker is asking in the then present tense, in that particular situation, so it is correct. 
    Option B is incorrect because the speaker is asking the question in the then present tense of the situation, when she is in London, whole ‘were’ is in the past tense hence it is incorrect. 
    Option D is incorrect because ‘have been’ is used as a continuation of the past tense which is incorrect here. 
    Option A is incorrect because when you are going to London means where will she stay when she is on her way to London, which is totally incorrect.
