Weekly Quiz Competition
  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    I've brought ___ books for you
    Solution
    A numeral adjective is an adjective that tells us about how many or how much or in what order the noun is. An indefinite numeral adjective gives an idea as to how many but it's not specific. 'Some' is an indefinite numeral adjective. Thus, option C is the correct answer. 
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    The _________ discovery of penicillin by Fleming in 1928 made the effective treatment of many bacterial diseases possible.
    Solution
    In the given sentence we can understand that the discovery that happened was by accident. Accident is a noun so to describe this discovery we would be using its adjective form. Adjectives can be formed by modifying a noun. These suffixes are: "-ic," "-ical," "-ish," and "-ous." , "-al".The word "photograph" can be transformed into "photographic" simply by adding the suffix. However, some nouns require a change in spelling. In this case, the suffix becomes "-al". 
    Option A is correct. 
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    In the town there were ___ new hospitals.
    Solution
    Adjective of quantity points towards the probable amount of the noun or pronoun in the sentence. It does not provide facts and figures about exact numbers, it tells only the amount of noun in relative or whole terms. Option A, D and E are used as pronouns or adverbs. They can be ignored. If we look into option B and C, "any" is an adjective which is used in negative sentences or question whereas "some" is used for positive sentences and statements. This is a positive sentence. Some is the correct answer. 
    Option B is correct. 
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most suitable option:
    I find English spellings  ____________.
    Solution
    The word 'difficult' is an adjective. Sometimes, adjectives follow the nouns that they modify.
    From the options, D is most appropriate because the word simply modifies the compound noun 'English spellings' by succeeding it. Hence option D is correct.
    Option A: 'It is difficult' is a clause and does not modify the noun 'spellings'.
    Option B: 'Is difficult' begins with a verb 'is', which is singular. The noun 'spellings', however, is plural. The verb and noun must be of the same number (singular or plural).
    Option C: In 'be difficult', 'be' is a base verb and requires the preposition 'to' to form a complete meaning. Without it, the phrase is incorrect.
    Hence options A, B and C are incorrect.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.

    Good health is ________ than money.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    Very ____ people can learn how to read efficiently.
    Solution
    The sentence indicates that not many people can learn how to read efficiently. Thus, the answer must mean 'not many'.
    Option A is incorrect. 'less' means 'to a smaller extent' and not 'not many'. Thus, it does not have the requires meaning and is incorrect.
    Option B is correct. 'few' means 'not many'. Thus, it has the required meaning and is the correct answer.
    Option C is incorrect. 'little' means 'small in size' and not 'not many'. Thus, it does not have the required meaning and is incorrect.
    Option D is incorrect. 'a little' means 'small amount' and not 'not many'. Thus, it does not have the required meaning and is incorrect.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:
    There isn't _________ water left, so we can't make tea. 
    Solution
    Options A and C: 'Some' and 'any' are adjectives that describe a non specific number. The main difference between these two are that 'any' is used in negative statements and 'some' is used in positive statements.
    The given sentence is negative (isn't = is not). Also, the quantity or amount of water is to be modified by an adjective. Hence option C is correct and A is incorrect.
    Option B: 'A little' means 'some' and has a positive meaning. The given sentence, however, is negative. Hence option B is incorrect.
    Option D: 'More' indicates a higher amount or degree of something. The meaning isn't relevant to the sentence. Hence D is incorrect.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:
    I don't need ______ money.
    Solution
    Options C and D: 'Any' and 'some' are adjectives that describe a non specific number. The main difference between these two are that 'any' is used in negative statements and 'some' is used in positive statements.
    The given sentence is negative (don't = do not). Also, the quantity or amount of money is to be modified by an adjective. Hence option C is correct and D is incorrect.
    Option A: 'No other' is a negation on its own and does not form a complete sentence. Also, 'other' is used for countable nouns.
    Option B: 'Another' is used for countable nouns (or collective nouns), whereas 'money' is uncountable.
    Hence options A and B are incorrect.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    A: Do you play snowball in Florida in the winter?
    B: No, it _____ for that.
    Solution
    The first question asks if the subject plays snowball in Florida in the winter. Here 'No' indicates a negative response. Thus, the sentence and by extension, the answer must also be a negative phrase. Also, snowball is a sport that requires very cold environment to play and thus,we can conclude that the subject does not play because the cold is not sufficient. Thus, the answer must contain an adjective that means 'sufficient'.
    Option A is incorrect. 'isn't so cold' is a negative phrase but does not contain an adjective that means 'sufficient'. Here, 'so' is an adverb of degree. Thus, it does not convey the correct meaning
    Option B is incorrect. 'its cold' is not a negative phrase. Thus, it contradicts the subject's initial response. Thus, it is incorrect
    Option C is correct. 'isn't cold enough' is a negative phrase and 'enough' means 'sufficient'. Thus, the phrase indicates that the cold is not sufficient to play snowball.
    Option D is incorrect. 'isn't too cold' is a negative phrase but, it does not contain an adjective that means 'sufficient'. Here, 'too' is an adverb that means 'extremely'. Thus, it is incorrect.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    He had to pay the library for the ____ book.
    Solution
    As we can see, the word in the blank will modify the noun 'book'. Only adjectives can modify nouns and thus, the answer must be an adjective that can modify the noun 'book'.
    Option A is incorrect. 'lose' is a verb and not an adjective. It cannot be used to modify a noun and thus, it is incorrect.
    Option B is correct. 'lost' is an adjective that is normally used for objects(like books). Thus, it meets the required condition and is correct.
    Option C is incorrect. 'loss' is a noun and not an adjective. It cannot be used to modify another noun and thus, it is incorrect.
    Option D is incorrect. 'loser' is a noun and not an adjective. It cannot be used to modify another noun and thus, it is incorrect.
