Weekly Quiz Competition

Question 1
1 / -0

Fill in the blank using the correct form of the verb in the bracket:
Seema's marriage outfit _______ (design) by the famous designer Ritu Beri.

A
Design

B
Would have been designed

C
Was designed

D
is designing

Solution

Option A) design is wrong as there are no words preceding or succeeding the it that indicate the tense. Option D) is designing is grammatically incorrect in the given sentence. Option B) would have been designed is not correct as it is not past perfect continuous tense sentence. So, the correct answer is C) was designed.
Question 2
1 / -0

Complete the following sentence using the correct form of the verb in the bracket.

The largest flyover _____ (construct) last month in Delhi.

A
was constructed

B
is constructing

C
is being constructed

D
will have been constructed

Solution

The sentence talks about an event completed in the past as can be inferred from 'last month' in the sentence. Also the sentence talks about only one action therefore simple past form should only be used.

Past tense expresses an action or situation that was started and finished in the past. Most past tense verbs end in “-ed”. The irregular verbs have special past tense forms which must be memorized, like "left" is the past form of leave. For example – Last night, I finished my entire holidays homework.

Option B is in the wrong format of present continuous, as it lacks the helping verb 'being', therefore incorrect.
Option C is in present continuous form, but cannot be used here as it expresses an action that started and continues as we speak.
Option D is in future perfect form and cannot be used here.

Therefore option A is the correct answer.
Question 3
1 / -0

A sentence can be formed when A, B, C, and D are put in an order. Identify the part which has an error.

A
When the young boy

B
was accused

C
to steal,

D
he started to cry.

Solution

The correct sentence would be " when the young boy was accused of stealing he started to cry." After accused we put the preposition 'of' followed by a verbal noun or gerund. So, instead of 'to steal' it would be 'of stealing'. 'Stealing' is a gerund here, because it is the 'ing' form of the verb 'steal' and functions as a noun.
Question 4
1 / -0

Complete the sentence with the correct forms of the verbs given in the brackets:
After school, we _____ and ______ our parents about our English teacher. (go, tell)

A
went, will tell

B
going, have been told

C
went , told

D
go, tell

Solution

Option A) went, will tell is incorrect because one word is in the past tense and the other in the future tense. Option B) going, have been told is grammatically incorrect as 'we going' is wrong.
Option D) go, tell is also grammatically incorrect because 'we go' is wrong.
So, the most appropriate answer is C) went, told for which the sentence becomes:
After school, we went and told our parents about our English teacher.
If the options had 'will go' and 'tell' the sentence would still have been correct.
Question 5
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the correct word/phrase.
As soon as I arrived, we ______ our food - everyone had waited for me.

A
Were ordering

B
Ordered

C
Had ordered

D
Would order

Solution

The given sentence talks about completing the order in the past, as can be inferred from the word 'arrived' which is in simple past form.

Past tense expresses an action or situation that was started and finished in the past. Most past tense verbs end in “-ed”. The irregular verbs have special past tense forms which must be memorized, like "left" is the past form of leave. For example – Last night, I finished my entire holidays homework.

Option A is in past continuous form and cannot be used here as it expresses an action that started and continued irrespective of another action in the past.
Option C is in past perfect form which is incorrect here as it is used to express actions that started and got completed before another action in the past.
Option D is incorrect here as 'would' is used to express sentences in subjunctive mood.

Option B is in simple past form and is the right choice here, as it indicates that an action (order) got completed in the past. Therefore Option B is the correct answer.
Question 6
1 / -0

In the sentence given below, one word has been omitted. Write the missing word along with the words that come before it and after it.

Pollution not a new problem.

A
Pollution is not

B
Pollution will not

C
Pollution had not

D
Pollution was not

Solution

From the given options, Option B) pollution will not is incorrect without the word 'be' following 'not'.
Option C) pollution will not is not correct because the problem is 'new' and is in the present time.
Option D) Pollution was not is grammatically incorrect because again the problem is new but 'was' indicates that the problem was in the past.
So, the correct answer is A) pollution is not.
Question 7
1 / -0

...view full instructions

While mixing the mixture, milk ______ separately.

A
is warmed

B
was warmed

C
will be warmed

D
had been warmed

Solution

The sentence is in the form of a generalized statement and does not refer to any action/event in the past or future. Therefore the sentence should be in simple present form.

Option B is in simple past form therefore incorrect.
Option C is in simple future form therefore incorrect.
Option D is in past perfect form therefore incorrect.

Option A is in simple present form therefore is the right answer.
Question 8
1 / -0

The given statement has some error. From the given options, which is the correct way of writing the given sentence?
I am having a car.

A
I has a car.

B
I have a car.

C
I is having a car.

D
I hadn't a car.

Solution

'Have' and 'having' can be quite confusing. The rule is when we talk about something we own or possess e.g. car, house etc or when we talk about something that has an uncertain duration e.g a cold, a headache etc, we use 'have'. When we talk about something that has a definite beginning, duration, and end, we use 'having'. For example, I am having a baby in November, I am having dinner, etc.
Here, the sentence talks about possessing a car. So, the correct verb to use is 'have'.
The correct option is B) I have a car.
Question 9
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the correct form of the verb given in the bracket.

First he _____ (have) to fill in a form for a new cheque book, as all the cheques in the old book are used up.

A
Has

B
Will have

C
Had

D
Should have

Solution

The sentence has two parts. The second part i.e 'as all the cheques in the old book are used up' indicates a present situation. Therefore, we need to use the simple present tense form of the verb 'have' to maintain tense throughout. So, the correct answer is option A) has. The other options are not in simple present tense and so cannot be used.
Question 10
1 / -0

The given statement has some error. From the given options, which is the correct way of writing the given sentence?

He left for America next week.

A
He is leaving for America next week.

B
He will leave for America next week.

C
He would have been leaving for America next week.

D
He was leaving for America next week.

Solution

The sentence is talking about something that will happen 'next week'.
So, it is a simple future tense sentence. From the given options, option A) uses 'is leaving' for a future tense sentence which is not correct grammatically. Option C) is incorrect grammatically since it is in the 'present' continuous conditional tense and not in the future tense. Option D) uses 'was leaving' for a future event which is incorrect. So, the most appropriate answer is B) He will leave for America next week.
