  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blanks with the most appropriate option:
    While the gentlemen _____ the recent events, the ladies_______about the weather.
    Solution
    The word 'while' explains that the actions in the given sentences are in continuous tenses. 
    Option A - 'Discuss/talk' are in the original verb forms. Thus option A is incorrect.
    Option B - 'Are discussing/was talking' is incorrect. The word 'while' explains that the actions took place at the same time and hence we can't use different tenses in one sentence here. Thus option B is incorrect.
    Option C - 'Being discussed/Being talked' is incorrect. As the given sentence is in the active voice, we can't use 'being', as 'being' is used in the passive voice. Thus option C is incorrect.
    Option E - 'Have discussed/have talked' is incorrect as it is in the present perfect tense. Thus option E is incorrect.
    Option D - 'Were discussing/were talking' are both in the past continuous tense and hence we can use 'were'. Thus option D is the correct answer.
    'While the gentlemen were discussing the recent events, the ladies were talking about the weather.'
  • Question 2
    1 / -0

  • Question 3

  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:
    Yesterday at this time, it ________.
    Solution
    Option D is the correct answer because it is in  the Past continuous tense as the "past continuous tense" also known as the "past progressive tense" refers to a continuing action or state that was happening at some point in the past, hence it is correct.
    Option A is incorrect because that is past perfect that means it had stopped in the past with respect to the past.
    Option B is incorrect because "snows" is the present third person form of ":snow".
    Option C is incorrect because it is simple past while the statement is not.
    Option E is incorrect because "had been snowing" means it is still snowing in the present which is incorrect because the past is being spoken about .

  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blanks with the most appropriate option:
    Turning, I found my father sitting beside me on the sofa. I said,
    "How _____ you ______ here?"
    Solution
    As his father was already sitting beside him, the action of getting there was done in the past. Hence, we will use simple past tense here.
    Option A - 'Do/get' is used in the present tense. We use 'do' to ask questions about general facts, Thus option A is incorrect.
    Option C - 'Does/get' is used in the present tense. Also, we can't use 'does' with 'you', as the subject is plural here. Thus option C is incorrect.
    Option D - 'Was' is used in the past tense but it can't be used here as 'you' is a plural subject. Also, 'getting' is used in the past continuous tense. Thus option D is incorrect.
    Option E - 'Has/been getting' is used in the present and present perfect continuous tense. Thus option E is incorrect.
    Option B - 'Did/get' is used in the simple past tense. Thus option B is the correct answer.
    'How did you get here?'
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:
    Last summer we ____ a trip to Houston.
    Solution
    The word 'last' indicates that the action was completed in the past. Hence we will use simple past tense here.
    Option B - 'Has made' is used in the present perfect tense. Thus option B is incorrect.
    Option C - 'Are making' is used in the present continuous tense. Thus option C is incorrect.
    Option D - 'Shall make' is used in the simple future tense. Thus option D is incorrect.
    Option E - 'Will be making' is used in the future continuous tense. Thus option E is incorrect.
    Option A - 'Made' is used in the simple past tense as it is the past form of the verb 'make'. Thus option A is the correct answer.
    'Last summer we made a trip to Houston.'
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blanks with the most appropriate option:
    The plane _____ at $$4$$ and it ____ us $$20$$ minutes to get there.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    Mary _____ to the bank on Monday.
    Solution
    The sentence indicates that Mary is not carrying out the action in the present. The time specified is Monday and so, the action can either be in the past or the future. Thus, the answer must be a verb in the past or the future tense.
    Option A is incorrect. 'go' is in the simple present tense. As Mary does not carry out the action in the present, 'go' cannot be used.
    Option B is incorrect. 'going' is an incomplete verb. It must be accompanied by an auxiliary verb or the sentence becomes grammatically incorrect.  
    Option C is incorrect. 'gone' is an incomplete verb. It must be accompanied by an auxiliary verb or the sentence becomes grammatically incorrect. 
    Option D is correct. 'went' is in the simple past tense and also, it is a complete verb that fits in the blank. It indicates that the action was carried out in the past, the past being the previous Monday.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    A: What _______________?
    B: She wanted to talk to him.
    Solution
    Statement 'A' asks a question to which statement 'B' provides an answer. Statement 'B' tells us what the subject wants and so the question asked by 'A' must justify that. Also, the answer must be in interrogative form as 'A' is a question. Further, the word 'wanted' indicates past tense and so the answer must also be in past tense.
    Option A is incorrect. 'wanted she' is a grammatically incorrect statement. A verb cannot be placed before its subject and so 'wanted' cannot come before 'she'.
    Option B is correct. 'did she want' is an interrogative phrase. It is also in the past tense. Further, it justifies the answer that the subject wants something by asking what the subject wants.
    Option C is incorrect. 'she wanted' is in the past tense and justifies the answer given by 'B' but, it is not an interrogative sentence and cannot be used for asking a question.
    Option D is incorrect. 'has she wanted' is an interrogative sentence and justifies the answer given by 'B' but, it is in present perfect tense and not past tense. Thus, it does not support the tense of 'B'.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:
    We ______ English, so I know the basics.
