  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Identify the form of the Future Simple Tense from the given options:
    Solution
    A is correct as simple future tense is used to express an action that will take place in the future. It is generally reserved for something that will begin and end in the future. It's a statement of fact, made with certainty. As simple future of "to be" is "will be" this is correct. 
    B is incorrect as "to have" becomes "will have" and is used in future perfect with past participle. 
    C is incorrect as future of "to do" is "will do" and it is grammatically incorrect with present participle (ing) form.
    D is incorrect assimple future tense does not take the past participle form with "will be".  
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Choose the correct present perfect or simple past form of the verb from the alternatives given.
    Yesterday I ________ Jolly at the swimming pool.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Choose the correct simple past or past continuous form of the verb from the alternatives given.
    He came into the room and _______ down at his desk.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blanks using correct tense forms :
    Joe's cat _____ into the river yesterday.
    Solution
    The word, 'yesterday' in the sentence indicates that the verb is in the past tense. The simple past tense talks about something that happened before. The past continuous tense talks about something that was happening before, but for a period of time. As the word, 'yesterday' talks about a specific time and not a period of time, the verb is in simple past tense and not past continuous tense. 
    Option A is correct as the verb 'fell' is the simple past tense form of the verb, 'fall.'
    Option B is incorrect as the verb, 'was falling' is in past continuous tense. 
    Option C is incorrect as the verb, 'have fallen' is in present perfect tense. As the noun, 'Joe's cat' is in the third person and singular, the correct form of the verb in present perfect tense form is 'has fallen' and not 'have fallen'. Hence, this option is grammatically incorrect. 
    Option D is incorrect as the verb, 'is falling' is in present continuous tense. 
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Choose the correct word/phrase to complete the sentence.
    She fell ill as the juice she ______ stale.
    Solution
    The given sentence is a complex sentence. The main clause, 'She fell ill' is in simple past tense. The reason for the subject (she) falling ill, is given in the subordinate clause, which begins with the conjunction, as'. As the event happened in the past, the subordinate clause should also be in the past tense. 
    Option A: The subordinate clause, 'as the juice she has is stale' is in simple present tense. It cannot complete the sentence as the main clause is in simple past tense. Hence, this option is incorrect. 
    Option B: This is incorrect as the auxiliary, 'have' is used with a third person, plural subject. It cannot be used with the third person, the singular subject, 'she'. 
    Option C: The subordinate clause 'as the juice she had was stale' is in past tense. It also meaningfully completes the given sentence. Hence, option C is correct.
    Option D: The sentence, 'She fell ill as the juice she hasnt' is stale' is not complete and does not convey any meaning. Hence, option D is incorrect
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Fill the correct present perfect or simple past form of the verb from the options given below: 
    India ______ the one-day match yesterday.
    Solution

    'Won' which in the simple past tense form is used to denote an action that occurred in the past. The given sentence speaks about the victory of India in the past, which is ‘yesterday’. Therefore option C is correct. On the other hand ‘win’ and ‘wins’ are both examples of simple present tense; the former is used for plural nouns and the latter for singular nouns. They are used to talk about actions that happen repeatedly in the present and to denote general truths/ statements. Hence 'win’ and ‘wins’ cannot be used, as in the given context the action occurred in the past and the statement doesn’t refer to any general truths. Thus options A and B are incorrect. Similarly, ‘had won’ cannot be used because ‘had won’ is an example of past perfect tense. It is used to refer to something that happened at some point in the past, before another action occurred, in the past. As the sentence speaks about only one action that occurred in the past, option D is incorrect.

  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Fill the correct present perfect or simple past form of the verb from the options given below: 
    Janak _______ the king of the city of Mithila years ago.
    Solution

    The simple past tense is used to denote an action that occurred in the distant past. Since ‘to be’ is an irregular verb, the simple past form of it would be ‘was’. The given sentence indicates that the action happened in the past. So we should use the simple past tense; therefore option B. Whereas, ‘is being’ would be an example of present continuous tense, which is used to talk about actions that happening at the moment or in the present. Since Janak’s reign is history that happened years ago option A is incorrect. On the other hand, ‘has been’ is an example of present perfect, which is used to denote an action that started in the past and completed in the recent past, i.e. sometime ago. While ‘had been’ is an example of past perfect tense. It is used to refer to something that happened at some point in the past, before another action occurred, in the past. Since the sentence speaks about a singular occurrence in the past options B and C cannot be used, hence they are incorrect.

  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank using the correct tense form :
    Vitamins ________ under protective foods.
    Solution
    The given sentence is a factual statement. The simple present tense is used to express general truths/ facts. The subject, 'vitamins' is in plural form.The simple present tense form of the verb, when used along with a plural subject, will not have the letter 's'. 
    Option A is in simple present tense form. However, it is incorrect as the verb, 'comes', has the letter 's'. It cannot be used with the plural subject.
    Option B is in simple present tense form. The verb, 'come', without the letter 's' can be used with the plural subject. Hence, option B is correct. 
    Option C is in present perfect tense. Option D is in simple past tense. These two options are incorrect as they are not in simple present tense.  
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Choose the correct word/phrase to complete the sentence.
    Yesterday, the marathon participants ______ a certificate each.
    Solution
    The word, 'yesterday' in the given sentence indicates that the verb in the sentence is in past tense. The sentence is in passive voice as the subject, 'the marathon participants' is the receiver of the verb (give). 
    Options A and B are incorrect as 'are given' is in simple present tense and 'will be given' is in the future tense. 
    Option C: The clause, 'the marathon participants had given a certificate' is in past perfect tense. However, this is incorrect as this clause is in the active voice. The subject (the marathon participants) is not the doer of the verb (give). It is the recipient of the verb. Hence, the clause cannot be in active voice. Hence, option C is incorrect. 
    Option D: The clause, 'the marathon participants were given a certificate' is in simple past tense and in the passive voice. It meaningfully completes the sentence and is grammatically correct. Hence, option D is the correct answer.  
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank using correct form of the verb:
    College students _______ usually wear a uniform.
    Solution
    The word 'usually' in the sentence indicates that the verb mentioned in the sentence is a habitual activity. The simple present tense is used to express a habitual activity. 
    Option A: The word, 'don't' is an abbreviated form of 'do not', which is used in simple present tense to emphasis a verb. Hence, this option is correct. 
    Option B: The word, 'didn't' is an abbreviated form of 'did not' which is used in simple past tense. As we have to use a verb in simple present tense only, this option is incorrect.
    Option C: The word, 'aren't ' is an abbreviated form of 'are not'. The auxiliary verb, 'are' is used along with the present continuous form of the main verb. So, 'are not wearing' is a correct usage. The verb, 'are not wear' is grammatically incorrect.  As the sentence is in simple present tense form, this option is incorrect. 
    Option D: The word, 'havent' is an abbreviated form of 'have not'. The auxiliary, 'have' is used in the present or past perfect tense form of the verb. As it is not used with the simple present tense, this option is incorrect.
