Mrs. Swami: Thank you, Bye.

Fill in the blank 16_______.

A
Mrs Swami

B
Mom

C
Kartik

D
Mrs Arya

Solution

Mrs.Swami (also referred to as Dolly) conveys an oral message over the telephone to Kartik (son of Shama), which is intended for his mother, Mrs. Shama. Kartik, in turn, conveys the message to his mother through a written note which is given.

In blank no. 16, the writer of the message (Kartik) addresses the recipient of the message (his mother). Hence, the most appropriate way of addressing is 'Mom'. Hence, option B is correct.
Option A is incorrect as the message is not addressed to Mrs. Swami.
Option C is incorrect as Karthik is the writer of the message. He cannot address it to himself.
Option D: Mrs. Arya is different from Kartik's mother (Shama). Hence, this option is incorrect.
Question 7
1 / -0
You are Bhuvi of A.B.C. Public School, Ambala. Your friend Aastha is absent when the instructions for tomorrow's picnic to Chandigarh are being given. Using the information given in the box, complete the message:
- reach school at 7:30 a.m.

- expected to be back by 6 p.m.
- come in school uniform
21_______
A
Dear friend

B
My Dearest Aastha

C
Aastha

D
Bhuvi

Solution

This is an informal message written by Bhuvi to her friend, Aastha. Blank no. 21 is to be filled with the word, which addresses, Aastha.

Options A and B are incorrect as the words, 'Dear friend' and 'My dearest Aastha' are used to address a person in a letter. In an informal message or note, the person for whom the being written is addressed directly using his/ her name.
The person being addressed is Aastha (and not Bhuvi). Hence, option C is correct and option D is incorrect.

Solution

Blank [5] is the ending of the poster and it should address the people who are in charge of the event or are organising because they are issuing the poster. Thus by reading the paragraph, we know that option B is the correct answer.
Option A is incorrect because it is the heading of the poster and we don't end a poster with a heading.
Option C is incorrect because it is the name of the main sponsor of the event and option D is incorrect as it is the place where the event will be held. Neither of these options is fit to be the ending of a poster.
Question 10
1 / -0

Read the following telephonic conversation and fill in the blanks with the option given:
Mrs Swami : Hello! This is Dolly speaking Could I speak to Shama?
Kartik : Auntie, I am afraid she is not at home. I am her son. Kartik speaking.
Mrs Swami : Kindly tell her to reach Hotel Golden Eagle at 8:00 p.m. tomorrow. The Lioness' Club has organised a dinner in honour of Miss Chandigarh.
Kartik : I will surely convey the message to mom. Anything else?
Mrs Swami : Oh, yes. Tell her to relay the same message to Mrs Arya.
Kartik : Okay, I'll tell her everything.
Mrs Swami : Thank you, Bye.

17_______

A
Mrs Swami

B
Mom

C
Kartik

D
Mrs Arya

Solution

Mrs.Swami (also referred to as Dolly) conveys an oral message over the telephone to Kartik (son of Shama), which is intended for his mother, Mrs.Shama. Kartik, in turn, conveys the message to his mother through a written note which is given.

In the first sentence, Kartik conveys to his mother that Mrs.Swami rang up to convey a message. Hence, blank no. 17 is to be filled with the name of the person who called up over the telephone, i.e. 'Mrs. Swami' and option A is correct.
The note is addressed by Kartik to his mom. So, he cannot say 'Mom rang up'. He cannot also refer to himself in the note and say, 'Hence, Kartik rang up'. Mrs.Arya did not call Shama on the telephone. Hence, saying, 'Mrs. Arya rang up' is incorrect. The phone call was not made by Kartik's mom or Kartik or Mrs.Arya. Hence, options B, C and D are incorrect.
