Weekly Quiz Competition
  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    She ___________ a uniform.
    Solution
    The correct answer is Option D.
    According to the rules of subject-verb agreement, in the present tense, the verb is followed by an 's' if the subject is in the singular.
    In the given sentence, SHE is the singular subject hence WEARS will be the correct form of the verb WEAR.
    The remaining options are incorrect because they are not verbs in the simple present tense. Hence they are not grammatically correct options.

  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank in the sentence with the most appropriate option:
    They believe that logic ____________ no place in faith.
    Solution
    Option A 'has' is the correct answer. The subject here is 'logic', which is singular. The verb must agree with the subject, so when the subject is singular, the verb must also be singular.
    'Option B: 'Have' is plural whereas the 'logic' is single.
    Option C: 'Had' refers to past tense. But the given sentence presents a general truth. In that case, it must be in simple present tense.
    Option D: Similarly, 'having' refers to a present continuous tense.
    Hence options B, C and D are incorrect.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blanks with the most appropriate words.
    She ___________ ____________ from America.
    Solution

    A verb is used to express an occurrence, action, or state. It is the grammatical centre of the predicate in a sentence.

    An auxiliary verb is a verb which gives is used in the formation of tenses, moods, tones, etc.

    Option B is correct as the subject is singular and the present simple tense is used for a present state, habits,routines, jobs, hobbies or expressing possession, generalizations, scientific statements.

     The other options are wrong as the subject is not plural. Therefore, do cannot be used here. 

    The correct answer is B)doesn't come

  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    In winter Sheila ___________ skiing and in summer _________ tennis.
    Solution
    The correct answer is Option B.
    Certain verbs are associated with certain words. So GOES is the correct word with SKIING and PLAY with TENNIS. Hence Option B is the correct answer.
    The verbs given in the remaining options are incorrect because they cannot be used with SKIING.

  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    Isabel is a flight attendant. She __________ passengers.
    Solution
    The correct answer is Option C.
    Since the first sentence is in present tense, the second sentence should also be in the present tense. According to the rules of subject-verb agreement, in the present tense, the verb becomes plural if the subject is in the singular.
    In the given sentence, ISABEL is the singular subject hence SERVES will be the correct form of the verb SERVE.
    The remaining options are incorrect because they are not verbs in the simple present tense. Hence they are not grammatically correct options.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:
    The environment has always _______ in control of our destiny.
    Solution
    In the given sentence, 'has always...' refers to something that has been present from the past times, and is relevant to the present as well.
    Also, 'has' is a helping verb that forms the present perfect tense with the main verb (past participle). (Present perfect tense indicates that an action began in the past and has just completed, or in this case, a fact that was and is still true.).
    The standard structure of a verb phrase in the present perfect tense is:
    has + past participle
    Hence, the correct option must be a past participle.
    Option C: 'Been' is a past participle of 'to be'. Hence C is the correct option.
    Options B and D: 'Is' and 'was' cannot be used as a main verb, when there is a helping verb already in the sentence. They are either used as helping verbs themselves, or used alone as a main verb, without an auxiliary.
    Option B: 'Be' is the base verb and cannot be used in this form in a sentence.
    Hence options A, B and D are incorrect.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:
    Economic growth ___________ attitudes and lifestyle.
    Solution
    The correct verb must agree with the subject in person and number.
    The subject here is 'economic growth', it's singular. Hence the verb must also be singular.
    Also, the given sentence states a general truth. This defines the simple present tense.
    Option C: 'Changes' is a singular verb, and is in the simple present tense.
    As mentioned earlier, the verb must agree with the subject in person. 'Economic growth' refers to an abstract noun, hence it is taken as an object. So it is in the third person narrative. 'Changes' is used for the third person.
    Hence C is the correct option.
    Option A: 'Change' is also a singular verb, but it is in the first or second person narrative.
    Options B and D: 'Will change' refers to the future tense and 'changed' refers to the past tense. But, the given sentence is a general truth, so it does not have a past or future tense.
    Hence these options are incorrect.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    She _________ from England.
    Solution

    A verb is used to express an occurrence, action, or state. It is the grammatical centre of the predicate in a sentence.

    An auxiliary verb is a verb which gives is used in the formation of tenses, moods, tones, etc.

    Option B is correct as the subject is singular and the present simple tense is used for a fact.

     

     The other options are wrong as the subject is not plural and the use of from indicates coming, not going.

    The correct answer is B)comes

  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blanks with the most appropriate words.
    "__________ he married?"
    "No, he ____________."
    Solution
    The correct answer is Option C.
    IS is used with a singular single person or thing.
    Since the answer begins with NO, we know that the person is not married. Hence, ISN'T is the correct answer. It is a contraction of 'is not.'
    Therefore Option C is the correct answer.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blanks with the most appropriate words.
    ___________ he ____________ three children?
    Solution
    The correct answer is Option A.
    DOES and HAVE are used with a singular subject. HE is the subject in the given sentence.
    Therefore Option A is the correct answer.
    The remaining options are grammatically incorrect.
