  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Identify the underlined adjective in the given sentences-an adjective of quality, quantity, number, demonstration, description or possession:
    Chandravadan's father is a rich man.
    Solution
    In the given sentence, the underlined adjective 'rich' explains the kind of man 'Chandravadan's father' is.
    Option B - 'Quantity' explains the number or the amount of something. 'Rich' doesn't explain the number of the noun, thus it's not an adjective of quantity. Hence, option B is incorrect.
    Option C - 'Possession' explains us the ownership of a noun. 'Rich' doesn't explain any ownership of the noun. Hence, option C is incorrect.
    Option D - 'Distribution' is used to single our one more individuals of a group or some items. As 'rich' is not used to explain distribution, it is a wrong choice. Hence, option D is incorrect.
    Option A - 'Quality' is used to express the kind or nature of the noun. As 'rich' explains the kind of man 'Chandravadan's father' is, we can say that 'rich' is the adjective of quality. Thus option A is the correct answer. 
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Choose the correct adjective formed from the noun given below:
    Breeze
    Solution
    BREEZE - 'Breeze' is a noun which means 'a light and a pleasant wind'.  For example, 'The cool breeze touched my face.'
     'breeze' is also a verb, which means 'to walk somewhere quickly/ easily' For example, 'He breezed in and danced for us.'
    Option A - 'Breezed' is the verb form, as explained above in the example. Hence, option A is incorrect. 
    Option B - 'Sea breeze' is a noun, which means 'a cool and a pleasant wind blowing from sea towards the land.' Hence, option B is incorrect. 
    Option C - 'Breezy' is the adjective form of 'breeze'. For example, 'It was a breezy day.' Hence, option C is the correct answer.
    Option D - Option D is incorrect, as option C is the answer.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Identify the underlined adjective in the given sentence; it can be an adjective of quality, quantity, number, demonstration, description or possession:
    The whole amount was paid to the bank in time.
    Solution
    In the given sentence, the underlined adjective 'whole' explains the sum of 'amount'.
    Option B - 'Adjective of Number' explains the subject by answering either of these: 'how much' or 'how many'. 'Whole' doesn't explain the number of the 'amount' here. Hence, option B is incorrect.
    Option C - 'Distribution' is used to single out the individuals of a group or some items. 'Whole' is not used to explain distribution, it is used for a group. Hence, option C is incorrect.
    Option D - 'Demonstration' is used to define 'which' noun or pronoun the speaker is referring to. As 'whole' doesn't represent 'which', 'demonstration' is a wrong choice. Hence, option D is incorrect.
    Option A - 'Quantity' explains the sum or amount of something. 'Whole' explains not the number but the 'sum/total' of the noun. Thus option A is the correct answer.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with suitable adjective from the options given: 
    The English paper was very ________.
    Solution
    Option A - 'Simplified' is a comparative adjective, which means 'simpler'. As the given sentence already has 'very', which is used as a comparative degree of determiner, we can't use a comparative adjective. Thus option A is incorrect.
    Option B - 'Correctness' is a noun, which means 'appropriateness of something.' For example, 'There was no evidence to support his correctness.' As 'very' is a determiner of degree, we can't use it with a noun. Thus option B is incorrect.
    Option D - 'Tougher' is a comparative adjective, which means 'harder'. As the given sentence already has 'very', which is used as a comparative degree of determiner, we can't use a comparative adjective. Thus option D is incorrect. 
    Option C - 'Tough' is the positive degree of adjective, which means 'difficult/hard'. It can be used with a comparative determiner 'very'. Thus option C is the correct answer.
    'The English paper was very tough.'
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Choose the appropriate option that explains how the given compound adjective was formed:

    World-famous
    Solution

    A compound adjective is formed when two or more adjectives are joined together to modify the same noun. A compound adjective can be formed using different forms of speech, which along with another adjective functions as a compound adjective. In the given phrase ‘world’ is a noun. While ‘famous’’ is an adjective. They are combined with a hyphen to form a compound adjective, to denote a person who is known across the world. Since it is a combination of a 'Noun' and an 'Adjective', A is correct. On the other hand ‘World’ is not an 'Adjective' so options C and D are incorrect. Similarly ‘famous’ is not a 'Noun', thus option B is incorrect. 

  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Choose the correct word/phrase to complete the sentence.
    Sam has ordered a lot of food. There is more than _____ for all of us.
    Solution
    The phrase, "for all of us" indicates that the word which fills the blank has to convey the meaning: sufficient. The word in the blank describes the noun, "food".
    Option A: The word, "many" means "a large number of". It is used to describe countable nouns. Food is an uncountable noun. Hence, option A is incorrect.
    Option B: The word, "much" means "a large amount". It does not clearly convey the same meaning as "sufficient". Hence, option B is incorrect.
    Option C: The word, "enough" means "as much as required". It means the same as sufficient. The sentence, "There is more than enough for all of us" means that the amount of food available is more than what is required for all of us. Hence, this option is correct.
    Option D: The word, "little" means "a small amount. It does not convey the same meaning as "sufficient". Hence, this option is incorrect.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank using demonstrative adjectives:
    ________ pens are yours.
    Solution
    'Pens' is a plural noun, hence we need a plural demonstrative adjective.
    Option B - 'That' is used as a determiner/demonstrative adjective with singular nouns only. Thus option B is incorrect.
    Option C - 'This' is used as a determiner/demonstrative adjective with singular nouns only. Thus option C is incorrect.
    Option D - 'Both A and B' is incorrect as option B is incorrect.
    Option A - 'These' is used as a determiner/demonstrative adjective with plural nouns only. Thus option A is the correct answer.
    'These pens are yours.'
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with suitable adjective from the options given:
    Flowers and trees are God's ________ gifts to mankind.
    Solution
    Option B - 'More precious' is the comparative form of the adjective. The given sentence doesn't compare anything, hence we can't use the comparative of an adjective here. Thus option B is incorrect.
    Option C - 'Very' is used as a comparative determiner for adjectives and adverbs. The given sentence doesn't compare anything, hence we can't use 'very precious' which is the comparative of an adjective here. Thus option C is incorrect.
    Option D - 'Prettier' is the comparative form of the adjective. As explained above, we can't use the comparative form, as there is no comparison in the sentence. Thus option D is incorrect.
    Option A - 'Most precious' is the superlative form of the adjective. As the given sentence talks about the superior gifts to mankind, we can use 'most precious'. Thus option A is the correct answer.
    'Flowers and trees are God's most precious gifts to mankind.'

    1 / -0

    Option A - 'This' is used with singular nouns only. Thus option A is incorrect.
    Option B - 'That' is used with singular nouns only. Thus option B is incorrect.
    Option D - As option A and B are incorrect, option D is incorrect.
    Option C - 'Such' is used with singular as well as plural nouns. Thus option C is the correct answer.
    'Such people ought to be avoided.'
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank using a demonstrative adjective:
    ________ dress does not fit me now.
    Solution
    'Dress' is a singular noun, hence we need a determiner/demonstrative adjective that can be used with singular nouns only.
    Option B - 'Such' is used to explain the things that are previously mentioned or to be mentioned. As 'dress' wasn't previously mentioned or is described in the sentence, we can't use 'such' here. Thus option B is incorrect.
    Option C - 'These' is used with plural nouns only. Thus option C is incorrect.
    Option D - 'Those' is used with plural nouns only. Thus option D is incorrect.
    Option A - 'This' is used to determine and demonstrate the singular subject as an adjective. Thus option A is the correct answer.
