Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:
________ I can stay is three hours.

A
long

B
longer

C

D
the longest

Solution

The Superlative Degree denotes the existence of the highest degree of the quality. It is used when more than two things are compared.

Hence Option D is correct.

B

Solution

The correct answer is Option A - by adding er and est.

Question 3
1 / -0

Choose the correct alternative from the options below.

There isn't _____ money in the box.

A
so much

B
many

C
much

D
many more

Solution

The indefinite numeral adjective does not indicate an exact number. 'many' is used for a large number of people or things. 'Much' is used for with mass nouns denoting great in quantity or degree or extent. Thus, option C is the correct answer.
Question 4
1 / -0

Fill in the blank.
You can take _____ half of this cake.

A
either

B
neither

C
each

D
every

Solution

From the given sentence, we can infer that you can take half of the cake. So the person wants to tell that you can take one of the two halves of the cake. Either refers to one of the two given things. So option A either is correct.
Option B neither means you can't take either of two halves, but they have said you can
Option C each means you can take both the halves, but in that case, they would have said, you can take all the cake.
Option D every is used to refer to something in a group, whereas here individual pieces are referred.
Question 5
1 / -0

Fill in the blanks with the appropriate words:
I do not know how _____ people will attend the concert nor how _____ money we will be able to raise.

A
much, many

B
many, much

C
few, little

D
little, few

Solution

Adjectives are the words which modify nouns, pronouns and other adjectives. Quantitative adjectives describe the quantity of something. 'Many' is used to define an indefinite, large number of people or things. 'Much' is used to define something which is great in quantity or degree or extent.
Thus, option B is the correct answer.
Question 6
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the appropriate option:

There aren't _______ people in the library today.

A
much

B
few

C
many

D
less

Solution

In the given sentence, the negative connotation from 'aren't' tells that the number of people in library that day is low. So, option B few is incorrect, as the phrase "aren't few" would mean the number of people is high.
Option A and D are incorrect, as much and less are used to refer to uncountable nouns, whereas here, people is a countable noun.
Option C many is correct as it refers to countable nouns and "aren't many" together refers to low in number.
Question 7
1 / -0

Directions For Questions

[passage-header]Given below is a part of an article prepared for a school magazine. Assume that you're the editor of the magazine, and you have to correct the errors:
[/passage-header]I was trying to climb a tree when my foot slips
and I fell and fainted. My friends would not see
me breathing and thought I had dead. They all ran
away and left me. Meanwhile, I regain consciousness
and found that I could not move nothing. I could
not get up to cry for help. I was having a terrible
headache and the pain in the back was awful. At last
I can see someone coming: it was my Uncle!

on see dear Uncle Tagore.

...view full instructions

... headache and the pain in the back was awful. At last ...

A
and - or

B
the - my

C
awful - awesome

D
last - least

Solution

The writer is talking about his/her own back. So, the correct word will be 'my' instead of 'the'.
Question 8
1 / -0

Fill in the blanks with the correct forms of the words given in brackets:
Malvika is the _____ girl in the class but she is as _____ as a two-year-old child. (old, innocent) [Basic]

A
older, innocent

B
old, more innocent

C
oldest, innocent

D
oldest, more innocent

Solution

In the first blank, the use of the definite article 'the' suggests twe need to use the superlative degree of adjective. Hence, the answer will be 'oldest'. In the second blank, the use of 'as...as' structure requires the use of positive degree of adjective so the answer is 'innocent'.
Question 9
1 / -0

Choose an appropriate option to complete the sentence.
He does not earn ___ money. But with ____ money he earns, his family is able to lead a comfortable life.

A
much, the little

B
many, the little

C
much, few

D
many, a few

Solution

In the given sentence, the noun money is an uncountable noun, and we want to tell that the amount of money he earns is not that high. Hence, much is the right word. Many is incorrect, because many is used to refer to countable nouns.
On similar lines, few is incorrect for second blank because it refers to countable nouns. In the given context, 'little' is the appropriate word as it used to refer to uncountable nouns.
Question 10
1 / -0

The match has reached a tie. ________ team could win.

A
Either

B
Each

C
Every

D
Neither

Solution

In the given sentence, we learn that match has reached a tie. A match is played between two people or teams. It means both the players or teams couldn't win.
Thus, option A either is incorrect, as it would mean that one of the two has won.
Option B, each is incorrect, because it would mean that both of them who participated has won.
Option C, every is incorrect, because it would mean that no participants has lost.
Option D, neither is correct, because it denotes that there is no winner in the match and it satisfies the given condition.
