Weekly Quiz Competition
  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Choose the option that best corrects the underlined word.
    Harry thought that trying skydiving was more dangerous than to try rollerblading.
    Solution
    Parallel structure means using the same pattern of words to show that two or more words or ideas are of equal importance. Words in the parallel structure should not only have the same structure but also tense. In the given sentence, two different adventure sports are compared. Thus, option C is the correct answer per rule. 
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Traveling from the United States to Europe by plane is faster than to travel by ship.

    Choose the option that best corrects the underlined phrase.
    Solution
    The comparison is between 'traveling by plane' and 'traveling by ship', whereas the underlined phrase is 'to travel by ship.' 'to travel' is not in the same form as 'traveling'. This is an error, hence, we need to correct it. Option A is, thus, incorrect. The construction of the phrases which are being compared need to be the same, so we use option D, which has the same structure in 'traveling by ship' as in the phrase 'Traveling...by plane'. Options B and C have demonstratives 'that' and 'those' which are used to modify nouns. Since these options modify the gerund 'traveling' (verb form ending in '-ing'), and they don't modify nouns, they're incorrect.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Identify which class the underlined adjective belongs to:

    Every word of the article was written from that war-torn country.
    Solution
    Option A is incorrect because the given adjective does not describe the quality of the noun that follows. Option B is incorrect because the given adjective does not denote possession by the noun. Option C is incorrect because the given adjective does not denote the exact number of the noun. Option D is correct because the given adjective refers to every single word in the group of words, i.e. the article.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Identify the category to which the underlined adjective belongs:
    He ate some rice and curry for dinner.
    Solution
    The Adjective of Quantity 'some' is used when the noun is an uncountable, 'rice' is an uncountable noun. Hence option B is correct, 'some' denotes the quantity of rice. Option A is incorrect because the quality or kind of rice is not mentioned. Option C is incorrect because when we use 'some' as an Adjective of Number, it is followed by a countable noun, and the noun 'rice' is not countable, hence 'some' is not a Numeral Adjective in this context. Option D is incorrect because it denotes which specific noun, and not how much of it.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most suitable option:

    I witnessed the fire with my ___ eyes
    Solution
    Option A: 'Own' is the most suitable option because it denotes possession of the noun 'eyes' and emphasizes their ownership by the speaker.
    'Own' relates to the sentence, as the speaker has witnessed the fire with his eyes. Also, the speaker is emphasizing the incident that he/she witnessed by using 'own'.
    Option B is incorrect because 'some' denotes an unknown number of a noun. One does not describe 'eyes' with 'some' (also, it is obvious that a person has only one pair of eyes). This word is used to describe things, objects 'some sweets, some juice,' etc.
    Option C: 'All' means the whole number of a group or the greatest possible number. It is not relevant to the given statement, hence option C is incorrect.
    Option D: 'Vary' refers to something that 'differs in size, shape, colour, and other aspects'. It does not describe eyes of a person. Hence option D is incorrect.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most suitable option:

    _____ raincoat is hanging on the door? (The person it belongs to)
    Solution
    The raincoat belongs to a person as mentioned in the question, we need to place a possessive adjective in the blank, they denote possession of the noun. When we want to ask who the raincoat belongs to, we simply use 'whose?', option C is hence correct. The given question asks about the person whose raincoat is hanging, and not the raincoat itself, 'which' when placed in the blank asks about the raincoat and this changes the meaning of the sentence. Hence option A is incorrect. 'Whom?' is a question word that asks about a person, whereas the question word required here asks about the person who possesses the noun 'raincoat', hence option B is incorrect. 'What?' is a question word that inquires about quality or asks for information about something, whereas the adjective required here enquires about possession. 'What' refers to a thing or quality, and not a person, hence option D is incorrect.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Identify which class the underlined adjective belongs to:

    Any of these clothes would suit you.
    Solution
    Option A is incorrect because the given adjective does not denote the noun's quality. Option B is incorrect because the given adjective does not indicate possession by the noun. Option C is incorrect because the given adjective does not denote the exact number of the noun. Option D is correct because the given adjective expresses an unspecified amount of the noun (clothes).
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most suitable option:

    _____ kind of books do you like?
    Solution
    Option A is correct because it modifies the noun by asking about a single genre of books. Option B is incorrect because it asks about a person, not a thing. Similarly options B and D about a person and not a thing.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Identify the category to which the underlined adjective belongs:
    There were some paintings on their walls.
    Solution
    Option A is incorrect because it denotes or demonstrates a noun that has been mentioned before, here 'paintings' is mentioned only once. Option B is incorrect because Definite Numeral Adjectives denote the exact number of a noun and 'some' is not a number. Option D is incorrect because D denotes what kind of noun is being referred to in terms of quality and characteristic, 'some' does not refer to quality of the noun. Option C is correct because 'some' is an Indefinite Numeral Adjective which does not express the exact number, here the exact number of paintings is unknown, hence the indefinite numeral 'some' is used.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Identify the category to which the underlined adjective belongs:
    There are three ripe figs in the fridge for you. [Advanced]
    Solution
    Option A is incorrect because it is used to express the kind or quality of a noun and here, the number 'three' does not denote the quality of the noun 'figs'. Option B is incorrect because an Adjective of Quantity answers the question 'how much' of the noun and does not give an exact number, here we have the exact number 'three'. Definite Numeral Adjectives tell us the exact number of the noun ('three', 'figs') they answer the question 'how many'hence option C is correct. Option D is incorrect because Indefinite Numeral Adjectives denote an unspecified amount of the noun and the adjective 'three' is a definite number.
