  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Use the positive degree of comparison in the following sentence:

    This boy is _____ (clever) the other boys.
    Solution
    The question states that the sentence needs to be of the positive degree. A sentence is of the positive degree of comparison when the nouns in comparison have equal qualities. In the sentence, the boy is as clever as the other boys, "as clever as" is of the positive degree hence option B is correct. Option A is incorrect because the word alone shows no degree of comparison. Option C (cleverer) is incorrect because it is in the comparative degree. Option D (cleverest) is incorrect because it is in the superlative degree of comparison.
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Choose the appropriate word :
    I am _____ than my elder brother.
    Solution
    Young is an adjective, which has degrees of comparison. In the given statement, the comparison is between two people. Therefore, the required degree of comparison is supposed to be in the comparative degree, which is achieved by adding the suffix "-er" to the base form of the word. Only Option D is eligible to be the right answer. Option A is a wrong one since the given form is in superlative degree. Option B and C have the positive form of the adjective, i.e., young. Moreover, Option C has the word most, which is the superlative prefix for words having more than one syllable. But, since the young has only one syllable, it is sufficient to add the suffix "-er" preceded by the word "than", used as a preposition, introducing the second element of the comparison, which is the elder brother. Therefore, Option D,i.e., Younger is the correct option.   
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Form an adjective from the given noun:
    Disaster
    Solution
    Many adjectives are formed from a base of a different class with a suffix (e.g. -less, -ous). Adjectives can also be formed from other adjectives, especially by the negative prefixes (un-, in- and non-). The most common suffixes are -al, -ent, -ive, -ous, -ful, -less. Disaster is a noun meaning a sudden accident or a natural catastrophe that causes great damage or loss of life. Adjective of this noun would define something that causes great danger. From the above-given form of prefix and suffix, "-ous" is one of the suffixes which are present in the options.
    Disaster + ous = Disastrous

  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with a suitable adjective.
    He knelt at his side and comforted him with _______ words.
    Solution
    In this sentence we would understand the use of descriptive adjective or the adjective of quality. The descriptive adjectives can be simply defined as the type of adjectives that are used to express the size, color, or shape of a person, a thing, an animal, or a place. They are used to provide more information to a noun by describing or modifying it. In this sentence, the first part gives us an idea that this person is of good-nature, benevolent,  sympathetic, understanding. So, we need to find a word similar to these. 
    Option A: Harsh is completely opposite of the word that is required. 
    Option B: Silent means not making or accompanied by any sound which does not match with the required word
    Option C: Is matching with what is required. It means sympathetic and comforting. Hence this is the correct answer.
    Option D: Is again completely opposite of what we are looking for. 
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Identify the adjective form of the word in the bracket to complete the sentence:
    My aim to reach the Mount Everest is _______________. (achieve)
    Solution
    In this sentence, the verb form is given in the bracket and we need to fill the blank with its adjective form. Achieve basically means to successfully bring about or reach (a desired objective or result) by effort, skill, or courage. The adjective form of it would describe something able to be brought about or reached successfully. 
    Option A: Is a noun form of the same word, meaning a thing that is done successfully with effort, skill, or courage.
    Option B: Achievable is an adjective form which describes that can be reached successfully. It is the correct answer.
    Option C: Being in the possibility of achieving something
    Option D: Is a wrong word. 
    Option B is the correct answer. 
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Identify the adjective form of the word in the bracket to complete the sentence: 
    Is this ____________ (accept) behaviour?
    Solution
    The adjective form of the verb 'accept' is: acceptable.
    Hence, Option A is correct.
    'Acceptable' is an adjective that modifies the noun "behaviour".

    Option B: 'Acceptance' is the noun form of the word in brackets. Since the question asks for the adjective, this option is wrong. Also, a noun cannot modify another noun 'behaviour'.
    Option C: Similarly, 'acceptability' is a noun. Hence C is incorrect.
    Option D: The word in brackets is a verb. It refers to an action, whereas the question calls for an adjective. Hence D is incorrect.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Replace the noun in the given sentence with a corresponding adjective:
    The play was a delight to watch. 
    Solution
    Many adjectives are formed from a base of a different class with a suffix (e.g. -less, -ous). Adjectives can also be formed from other adjectives, especially by the negative prefixes (un-, in- and non-). The most common suffixes are -al, -ent, -ive, -ous, -ful, -less. Delight is a noun which means something that gives great pleasure or enjoyment. Option C gives the correct used adjective (It describes something that is greatly pleasing). In this case, the suffix is -ful as mentioned earlier in this solution. 
    delight + ful = delightful
    Option C is the correct option
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Form an adjective from the following noun:

    courage
    Solution
    Adjectives are the words which modify the noun. Adjectives can be formed from nouns. 'Courage' is a noun and adjective can be formed by adding 'ous' at the end of the word. Thus, option C is the correct answer. 
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Form an adjective from the given noun:
    fortune 
    Solution
    Adjectives are the words which modify the noun. Adjectives can be formed from nouns. 'Fortune' is a noun and adjective can be formed by adding 'ate' at the end of the word and removing 'e' from the word 'fortune'. Thus, option B is the correct answer. 
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Identify the adjective form of the given verb:
    whiten
    Solution
    Whiten is a verb which means make or become white. The adjective would describe the color of milk or fresh snow, the opposite of black.
    Option A: Wrong word
