  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    Don't you always feel very ____ when you are home?
    Solution
    As we can see, the answer must be how the subject feels. Thus, it must be a feeling. A feeling is something that is assigned to a person(noun). Thus, the answer must be an adjective that indicates a feeling.
    Option A is correct. 'happy' is an adjective that indicates a feeling. It indicates that the subject feels delighted. Thus, it is the correct answer.
    Option B is incorrect. 'hardly' is an adverb and not an adjective. Thus, it cannot indicate how the subject feels and so, it is incorrect.
    Option C is incorrect. 'happily' is an adverb and not an adjective. Thus, it cannot indicate how the subject feels and so, it is incorrect.
    Option D is incorrect. 'nicely' is an adverb and not an adjective. Thus, it cannot indicate how the subject feels and so, it is incorrect.
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    I spent ____ time studying for the test.
    Solution
    Let’s examine the sentence: “I spent ____ time studying for the test.” The sentence requires an adjective of quantity to indicate the quantity of time spent in studying for test. We know that adjectives are used to describe nouns or pronouns. Words such as 'most, any, many, few, etc.' along with numbers, are adjectives of quantity. They tell us the amount, or the approximate amount, of the noun they describe. In the options, four adjectives of quantity are given: ‘a lot of,’ ‘hours of,’ ‘a few,’ and ‘not much.’ Option A is the only one that can describe time in correct sense and hence, that is the answer.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    She dances ____ than I do.
    Solution
    In the given sentence, 'than' indicates that the subject and the object is being compared to each other. The comparison is made between a mutual quality of both. Thus, the answer must be an adjective of comparative degree.
    Option A is incorrect. 'badly' is an adverb and not an adjective. Thus, it cannot be the answer.
    Option B is incorrect. 'too badly' is an adverb and not an adjective. Thus, it cannot be the answer.
    Option C is incorrect. 'worst' is an adjective of the superlative degree and not the comparative degree. Thus, it cannot be used for comparison.
    Option D is correct. 'worse' is an adjective of the comparative degree and thus, it can be used for comparison. Thus, it is correct.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    She swims ____ than I do.
    Solution
    In the given sentence, 'than' indicates that a comparison is being mad between the subject and the object. Thus, a mutual quality of the subject and object is being compared. Therefore, the answer must be an adjective of the comparative degree.
    Option A is incorrect. 'good' is an adjective of the positive degree and not comparative degree. Thus, it cannot be used for comparison and is incorrect.
    Option B is incorrect. 'well' is an adjective of the positive degree and not comparative degree. Thus, it cannot be used for comparison and is incorrect.
    Option C is correct. 'better' is an adjective of the comparative degree. Thus, it can be used for comparison and is the correct answer.
    Option D is incorrect. 'best' is an adjective of the superlative degree and not comparative degree. Thus, it cannot be used for comparison and is incorrect.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    He is ____ to understand my instructions.
    Solution
    Let’s examine the sentence: “He is ____ to understand my instructions.” All the options use the adjective ‘stupid.’ ‘Stupid’ can be negatively used with the clause “understand my instructions” in the sentence. Hence, the sentence requires an adverb of degree with ‘stupid’ that can convey the sense that “he” cannot “understand my instructions.” Adverbs of degree tell us about the intensity of something. Adverbs of degree are usually placed before the adjective, adverb, or verb that they modify, although there are some exceptions. The sentence requires an adverb of degree that can emphasize strongly the extremity of stupidity. Of the four adverbs, i.e. very, enough, such and too, given in the options, ‘too’ conveys this sense as it means ‘excessively’ or ‘to a great extent.’ Other adverbs do not convey this sense as their meanings relate to less stronger forms of action or quality. Hence, Option C is the correct answer.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blanks with the most appropriate option:
    Mark Twain, one of _____ and _____ American writers, lived in a small town in his childhood.
    Solution
    The Superlative Degree denotes the existence of the highest degree of the quality. It is used when more than two things are compared.
    'The' is used as an emphasising adjective to express the quality of the noun. 
    'The greatest and most popular' are superlative forms.
    'Greater and more popular' are comparative forms.
    'Great and popular' are positive forms.
    Hence Option C is correct.

  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:
    Alice came late, Philip came later, and Tony ____.
    Solution
    The Superlative Degree denotes the existence of the highest degree of the quality. It is used when more than two things are compared.
    The given sentence shows increasing order of degree of comparison. 
    The last one has to be superlative. 
    'The' is used as an emphasising adjective to express the quality of the noun.
    'Last, later and latest' are the positive, comparative and superlative degrees resectively. 
    The is used in adjective as there is noone more late than Tony.  
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:
    Of the four girls, Marcia is _____.
    Solution
    The Superlative Degree denotes the existence of the highest degree of the quality. It is used when more than two things are compared.
    'The' is used as an emphasising adjective to express the quality of the noun. 
    Hence Option C is correct. 
    'Prettier' is comparative form. Thus Option B is incorrect.
    'Pretty' is the positive form so option D is incorrect. 
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:
    The Thames is ___ river in Great Britain.
    Solution
    The Superlative Degree denotes the existence of the highest degree of the quality. It is used when more than two things are compared.
    'The' is used as an emphasising adjective to express the quality of the noun. 
    Hence Option A is correct. 
    'Longer' is comparative form. Thus Option D is incorrect.
    'Long' is the positive form so option B is incorrect. 
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:
    Mr. Green has a __________vacation.
    Solution
    Option D: When nouns are used as adjectives, then it remains in singular form. In the given sentence, 'two-week' functions as an adjective as it modifies or describes the noun 'vacation'. Hence option D is correct.
    Option B: For the same reason, 'two-weeks' is incorrect since adjectives do not have plural form.
    Option A: 'Two weeks' does not function as an adjective because it's a compound noun. But, the correct part of speech should be an adjective because the 'vacation' is modified here.
    Option C: Two week's is incorrect because the word 'week' is singular whereas the number is plural: two. The correct form should be: two weeks'.
