Weekly Quiz Competition
  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Choose the word or phrase that best completes the sentence. 
    What do you think_______me? 
    Solution
    The blank in the given interrogative sentence refers to an action already completed in the past. Thus, the verb will be in simple past tense. 
    "Told" in option A is a transitive verb but is missing the pronoun which indicates the indirect object. Thus, this is incorrect.
    "They told" in option B is correct as the transitive verb 'told' requires two objects, direct and indirect. The pronoun 'they' is the indirect object and 'me' is the direct object.
    Options C and D are incorrect as they use the present participle form of the transitive verb 'tell'. 
    Thus, option B is the correct answer. 

  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Choose the correct word(s) that correctly completes the sentence.
    Slow and steady _______ the race.
    Solution
    In this sentence, we would be understanding the subject-verb agreement. The sentence is in third person as we can see. 
    Although most noun plurals are formed this way, only verbs with a third-person singular noun or pronoun as a subject ever have an added s on the end. With plural nouns there is never an added s at the end of a verb. Thus, Option A is wrong and instead Option B is correct. 

  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Choose the correct word(s) that correctly completes the sentence.
    The jury _____ given its opinion.
    Solution
    In this sentence we would be understanding the usage of subject-verb concord. In this sentence, a third person has been addressed and the sentence is in perfect tense. 
    Has is used alongside the pronouns He / She / It and Who and singular nouns (In third person). It is used in case of perfect tense. It is the correct answer. 
    Have been is used for first- and second-person singular and all plural uses. It is the wrong option. 
    Is and are only used for simple tenses and the given sentence is in perfect tense. Thus, these are wrong. 
    Option A is correct. 
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Choose the word or phrase that best completes the sentence. 
    My brother, together with his friends, always_______round collecting wood for bonfire night. 
    Solution
    We would be understanding the agreement of verb with subject in this sentence. A rule states that when a subject is in third person, the verb used is plural. 
    Go is a verb that is in singular form
    Goes is in plural form. This is the correct answer. 
    Going is in continuous present tense
    Gone is in past tense. 
    Option B is correct. 
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blanks with the best answer from the options given below.

    Each of the workers _______ to bring _______ own tools. [Advanced]
    Solution
    The sentence is talking about many workers but at the same time, is using 'each' before the word 'workers'. 'Each' refers to individual workers separately. So, we need to use singular words in both the given blanks since we are referring to each worker. This rules out options with plural verbs and pronouns 'have' and 'their' i.e options B, C, and D. Hence, the correct answer is option A) 'has, his' with the singular verb 'has' and singular pronoun 'his' that agrees with the singular subject 'each' of the workers.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Select suitable option:
    I ________ (do) mind eating in fast food restaurants on weekends.
    Solution
    We use do when the subject is I, you, we or they and does with third person singular pronouns i.e when the subject is he, she or it. This sentence uses "I" which confirms the usage of "do". Now the intended meaning is that the person is not having any problem eating in the fast food restaurants. So, "do not" is the correct form, the shotter verson of "do not" is "don't".
    Option B is correct. 
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most suitable option:
    Neither of the boys _____ eligible for the test. 
    Solution
    Subject and verb agreement means the verb and the subject must agree in number. Option A) is correct as neither of the boys means none and must use is. The other options are wrong as the subject is not plural, the tense cannot be changed to past or future tense. The correct answer is A)is.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Rearrange the following words and phrases to form a meaningful sentence: (The sentence may have two clauses)

    by the beauty / that / to worship it / he was / falling down / he felt like / so impressed / to his knees / of the statue
    Solution
    The two clauses in the sentence are he was impressed by the beauty of the statue, and, he felt like falling down to his knees to worship it, joined together by the conjunction so that. As displayed in Option B, the sentence establishes the sequence in which the events take place in a way that it makes complete sense. Thus, Option B is the correct one. 
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Rearrange the following words and phrases to form a meaningful sentence:

    was a devoted / to the goddess / he prayed / to breathe life / into it / of Aphrodite / since he / follower
    Solution
    The clauses he prayed to the goddess to breathe life into it, and, he was a devoted follower of Aphrodite, are joined together by the conjunction since, indicating the cause of effect of the events taking place therein. Option C is the only one which displays the sequence correctly, making perfect sense. Therefore, Option C is the correct answer. 
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Rearrange the following words and phrases to form a meaningful sentence:

    important / it / is / to observe / rules / traffic
    Solution
    Since the verb is "is to observe" and the object is "traffic rules", the object should be placed after the verb. Hence, Option C is correct. The rest of the options do not adhere to the goal,  hence incorrect.
