  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blanks with a suitable verb.
    It _____ very cheap.
    Solution
    Option B is the correct answer. Since it is a third person singular number pronoun, the following verb will be in the singular. The personal first person pronoun am is incorrect here. Has indicates belonging, which isn't stated here. Thus, options A,C and D are all incorrect. 
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Select the appropriate option to complete the sentence:

    Christine doesn't use her car very often. She _______
    Solution
    In this sentence, we would be understanding the subject verb agreement. The subject of this sentence, travels drives which means it is not of her liking. This proves that the verb should be in negative sense. The words "don't" and "doesn't" are negative words. The words “do” and “does” mean the same, that is, “to carry out or to perform an action.” “Do” is used in the first and second persons; “does” is used in the third person. This sentence is in third person thus doesn't is the correct option.
    Option C is the correct option. 
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Fill appropriate option in the blank:
    I ______ hot weather very much. It makes me sick.
    Solution
    The correct answer is option C.
    A) Like cannot be the appropriate verb here because in general, when something makes someone sick, it is not likeable.
    B) I is a singular subject. Likes is a plural verb. So the subject and verb do not agree here.
    C) In don't like, like is a verb that agrees with the subject  and don't is contraction of 'do not' which is a conventional choice.
    D) Doesn't is used for third person. So, it does not fit in the sentence.

  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Complete the given sentence:

    George is a detective. He enjoys his work. He ________________________.
    Solution
    We have to keep two things in mind while completing the given sentence: context and grammar. 'He' is our subject which is a third-person-singular pronoun hence we need a verb that agrees with the subject. The verb in option A) 'likes' agrees with the subject as it is singular in nature and fits in the context as it is clearly mentioned that George enjoys his work, so it is obvious that he likes solving mysteries.
    We can rule out options B and D as they do not fit contextually with the given statement.
    Option C is not the correct answer as its verb 'like' is plural in nature and does not agree with our singular subject 'he'.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Choose the appropriate option to fill in the blank:

    Dave is a gardener. He likes his job. He ______. 
    Solution
    In this sentence, we would be understanding the subject-verb agreement. The subject of this sentence is a gardener and he liked his job which means he liked working in the garden or in the open air. This proves that the verbs should be in a positive sense. The words "don't" and "doesn't" are negative words. Thus Option C and D can be eliminated. Now, the sentence is in the third person. The rule states that when a sentence is in the third person singular form, "s" is added at the end of the verb.  The verb would become "likes". 
    Option C is the correct answer 
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Select the appropriate option to complete the sentence:

    I _______ cats. I have two of them as my pets.
    Solution
    The verb is used with 's/es' at its end when the subject is singular and the sentence is in the simple present tense. The verb is used without 's/es' with plural nouns in the simple present tense. However, 'I'  and 'You' are exceptional cases which take the verbs of plural subjects in spite of being singular. Therefore, the correct option is: like. 
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Select the appropriate option to complete the sentence:

    Jennifer is a very cautious person. She ______.
    Solution
    In this sentence, we would be understanding the subject verb agreement. The subject of this sentence, is a cautious person which means it is not of her liking and she rarely takes risks. This proves that the verb should be in negative sense. The words "don't" and "doesn't" are negative words. The words “do” and “does” mean the same, that is, “to carry out or to perform an action.” “Do” is used in the first and second persons; “does” is used in the third person. This sentence is in third person thus doesn't is the correct option.
    Option B is the correct option. 
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Select the appropriate option to complete the sentence:

    Ann very rarely travels by plane. She ___________
    Solution
    In this sentence, we would be understanding the subject verb agreement. The subject of this sentence, travels rarely on plane which means it is not of her liking. This proves that the verbs should be in negative sense. The words "don't" and "doesn't" are negative words. The words “do” and “does” mean the same, that is, “to carry out or to perform an action.” “Do” is used in the first and second persons; “does” is used in the third person. This sentence is in third person thus doesn't is the correct option.
    Option B is the correct option. 



  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blanks with correct words:
    _________ scissors _________ very sharp. [Advanced]
    Solution
    A few words, though singular in nature, are made of paired items and generally treated as plural: scissors is one of them. Scissors is singular in form and plural in meaning, therefore, it requires a plural pronoun and verb in the given sentence. Scissors is one of those words that does not have a singular number. From the given options, we need to find words that are plural to agree with scissors. 'These and aren't' are plural whereas 'this and isn't' are singular. We need to fill in the blanks with plural words. Therefore, the correct option is: these; aren't. The other options have at least one singular verb or pronoun.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Fill suitable options in the blanks:
    Nobody was hurt in the accident but _____ to the car ______ quite bad. [Advanced]
    Solution
    Option C is correct. Option A and B are wrong as incorrect helping verbs are used with noun. Option C is correct since the sentence is in past tense and car is a singular noun.
