  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Choose the correct homonym to complete the sentence:

    They have _____ boats.
    Solution

    Option A: “two” gives meaning to the sentence. Since, upon using it, the sentence means, “They have a couple of boats.”. Hence, this is the correct option.

    Option B: This might be a confusing option since one of the meanings of “too” is “also”. Thus, it might be used to make a sentence which means, “They also have boats.”.

    The problem is that when “too” is used in a sentence to mean “also”, it is put before the verb to make a meaningful sentence. For example, “She too can write well”. Since in the given sentence the blank is after “have”, so "too" cannot be used. Hence, this option is incorrect.

    Option C: “to” means a direction or approach or indication. This is meaningless in the given case. Hence, this option is incorrect.

    Option D: “tool” refers to an instrument or device which has specific uses or objectives. This is meaningless in the given case. Hence, this option is incorrect.

  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Choose the correct homonym to complete the sentence:

    The _____ in the vase is a gladiolus.
    Solution

    Option D: “flower” makes the sentence a meaningful one. It means, “The flower that is kept in the vase is a species called gladiolus.” Hence, this is the correct option.

    Option A: flue refers to a chimney made in factories from where the smoke escapes. This is irrelevant in the given case. Hence, this option is incorrect.

    Option B: “floral” is the quality of being related to flowers or depicting flowers. For example, “A floral design”, “A floral pattern”. It is used as an adjective and does not provide the given sentence with any meaning. Hence, this option is incorrect.

    Option C: “flour” is ground grain powder. “flour in a vase” does not make any sense, and thus is irrelevant. Hence, this option is incorrect.

    She will _____ a new course in electronics this year.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0

    Option A: “moat” refers to a ditch or trench dug around a building (usually a fort) as a form of protection. This is meaningless in the given case. Hence, this option is incorrect.

    Option B: “might” is the past tense of “may” and represents a possibility, for example, “She said she might be there.” This is meaningless in the given case. Hence, this option is incorrect.
