  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:
    Terry is talking to two __________.
    Solution
    Options A and B: 'Women' is a plural noun whereas 'woman' is singular. The latter refers to only one woman whereas the former refers to two or more.
    Since the given sentence mentions 'two', the plural noun is correct. Hence option A is correct and B is wrong.
    Options C and D: 'Woman's' and 'women's' both express possession of something. In order to indicate possession, the word must be followed by the word that it possesses (woman's daughter). But here woman's and women's is not followed by any other word. Hence these options are incorrect.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    How many ____ are there? 
    Solution
    In the given sentence, 'many' and 'are' indicates that the complete answer is plural. Thus, all the words in the answer must be plural.
    Option A is incorrect. 'shoe' is singular and thus, cannot come after 'many' or before 'are'. Thus, it is incorrect.
    Option B is incorrect. In 'pair of shoes', 'shoes' is plural and can come before 'are' but, 'pair' is singular and cannot come after 'many'. Thus, it is incorrect.
    Option C is incorrect. 'pair' is singular and thus, cannot come after 'many' or before 'are'. Thus, it is incorrect.
    Option D is correct. In 'pairs of shoes', 'pairs' is plural and can come after 'many' and 'shoes' is also plural and can come before 'are'. Thus, it fits in the blank and is the correct answer.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Correct definition of noun is:
    Solution
    Option C: A noun is a word that names any of a class (common nouns) of people, things, places, or any of them in particular (proper nouns).
    Hence option C is correct.
    Option A: Verbs indicate actions, and not nouns.
    Option B: Adjectives are words that indicate a quality, and not nouns.
    Hence options A and B are incorrect.
    Option D is incorrect because the answer lies in C.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    I have two _________.
    Solution
    The correct answer is Option B.
    The plural form of a word is used when we talk of more than one thing.
    In the given sentence the word 'two' signifies the fact that 'I' has more than one sister. 
    Hence, the correct answer is the plural form of the word 'sister'. Thus, Option B- SISTERS is the correct answer.
    The remaining options are incorrect because:
    Option A and C are used only when we talk of anything in the singular form.
    Option D is used to show possession.
    Thus, Option B is the correct answer.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:
    How many of ________ are present in class?
    Solution
    The suitable word must be plural, as suggested by the words 'many' and 'are'.
    'Are' is a plural verb. When the verb is plural the nouns in relation must also be plural. 'Many' refers to a plural countable noun.
    Option A: 'Girls' in 'the girls' is a plural noun and completes the sentence in meaning. Hence this option is correct.
    Options B, C and D: 'Girls' refers to a particular number of girls that are known to the speaker. When the noun is specific, it should be preceded by the article 'the'. Without the article, the given sentence is incomplete.
    Girls' and the girl's are both in the possessive case. It must be followed by a word or a noun to indicate its possession. But in the given sentence, it's not followed by any noun.
    Hence these options are incorrect.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:
    All the __________ are following the man.
    Solution
    The suitable word must be plural, as suggested by the words 'all' and 'are'. The verb 'are' is a plural verb ('is' is singular). When the verb is plural, the noun in relation must also be plural. 'All' refers to a plural noun.
    Option D: 'Children' is a plural noun and completes the sentence in meaning. Hence this option is correct.
    Options A, B and C: 'Policeman', 'woman' and 'dog' are singular nouns. They do not match with the determiner 'all'; 'all' refers to more than one. Hence these options are incorrect.
