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. Many verbs, such as "have," take irregular forms in the simple past.

I knew Sarah was very busy, so I ____________ her. (disturb)

A
didn't disturb

B

C

D

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. We use the simple past to express the idea that an action started and finished at a specific time in the past, here, the action of not disturbing Sarah. The simple past is formed using the verb + ed. In addition, there are many verbs with irregular past forms. Questions are made with 'did' and negative forms are made with 'did not'. Hence, Option B is correct.

The rest of the options do not express this condition. They all mention actions that are happening in the present. Hence these options are incorrect.
Question 5
1 / -0

Rewrite the following sentence using the correct tense of the verbs given in the brackets:

As she (listen to) the phone, her face (beam) with joy. She (look) thrilled. But I could not make out from her expression what happy news she (receive).

A
had listened to, had beamed, looks, receives

B
listens to, beams, looks, received

C
had listened to, beamed, had looked, had received

D
listened to, beamed, looked, had received
Question 6
1 / -0

Rewrite the following sentence using the correct tense in simple past or past perfect of the verbs given in the brackets:

I (play) sitar when a young lady (come) and (stand) near me. She (listen) to the music for a while and then (ask) me what raga I (play).

A
played, had come, listened, had ask, play

B
was playing, came, stood, listened, asked, was playing

C
had played, came, stand, listen, asked, had played

D
play, come, stand, listened, asked, play

Solution

Option B is the correct answer because the speaker describes a situation where he was approached by a young lady, so it is correct to say that he ‘was playing’ sitar at that time, as it is simple past tense, since this is in simple past, every other word is in simple past tense as well, hence “came”, “stood “, “listened” are all correct.
Option A is incorrect becaue ‘played’ would mean that he had played before then the last came near him, but that’s incorrect because she came while he was playing.
Option C is incorrect for the same reasons as option A because it is in past perfect tense, which means he played it before , but the lady approaches while he is playing so it is incorrect.
Option D is incorrect because “playl or “come” are not verbs, while the statement demands replacement of these words by verbs.
Question 7
1 / -0

Choose appropriate option to fill in the blanks:
Brian looks very different now. When you __________ (see) him again, you __________ (not/recognize) him.

A
see ... will not recognize

B
saw..... did not recognize

C
will see ..... will not recognize

D
see ... does not recognize
Question 8
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the correct form of future tense of the verb given in the brackets.

If it is possible, we _______ (go) to Chennai.

A
went

B
will go

C
have gone

D
have had gone

Solution

A verb is used to express an occurrence, action, or state. It is the grammatical centre of the predicate in a sentence. Option B) will go is correct as the simple future tense is used to indicate an action to be carried out in the future. The other options are wrong as no other tense can be used here. The correct answer is B)will go.
Question 9
1 / -0

Put the verbs in brackets in the correct forms:
Ann _________ me her address but I'm afraid I _________ it. (give, lose)

A
gave ... lost

B
has give ... have lose

C
gives ... lose

D
will give ... lost

Solution

The simple past tense shows that you are talking about something that has already happened. Unlike the past continuous tense, which is used to talk about past events that happened over a period of time, the simple past tense emphasizes that the action is finished. The action of Ann giving the speaker her address and the speaker's losing it - both have completed. Hence, Option A is correct.

The rest of the options do not express this condition. They mention actions that are happening on a daily basis (option C) or future actions followed by past actions, which does not share a unified meaning (option D).
The verb forms 'give' and 'lose' are base verbs or simple present verbs that cannot express the past perfect tense 'has give/have lose' (option B).
Hence these options are incorrect.
Question 10
1 / -0

Rewrite the following sentence using the correct tense of the verbs given in the brackets:

When I (enter) the conference room, they (discuss) expansion plans. They (break) off their discussion. The manager (introduce) me to the members and (invite) me to express my views on the subject.

A
was entering, were discussing, broke, had introduced, invite

B
entered, discussion, broken, introduction, invited

C
entered, were discussing, broke, introduced, invited

D
enter, discussing, had broke, introduced, invited

Solution

Option C is the correct answer because the statement is clearly made in the past tense, hence it is correct ti use "entered" as it is the past tense of "enter", "were discussing" is past tense of discuss, "broke" is past of "break, and "invited" is past tense of invite, we can tell it is in past tense because the speaker is talking in indirect speech.
Option A is incorrect because present forms of a verb are used only if it is in the present, or if it is in direct speech, hence incorrect.
Option B is incorrect because "broken" is the verb talking about a particular thing in the past, it would be correct if it was "the discussion was broken off".
Option D is incorrect for the same reasons as Option A.
