Weekly Quiz Competition
  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with a suitable verb form:

    You ______________ get the $$9.45$$ train. You could get the $$9.55$$ train and still arrive on time.
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option.
    A: Are there any people in the bar?
    B: No, _____________________.
    Solution
    Statement 'A' asks a question about the position of multiple subjects in the bar. Thus, the answer must contain a preposition that refers to position/place. Further, it should contain a verb that justifies the position of multiple subjects.
    Option A is incorrect. It does not contain any verb and thus, it is grammatically incorrect.
    Option B is correct. 'There' can be used to indicate position/place of the subjects. 'aren't' justifies the presence of multiple subjects. Thus, 'there aren't' perfectly answers the question asked by statement 'A'.
    Option C is incorrect. 'There' can be used to indicate position but 'isn't' cannot justify the presence of multiple subjects as it is a singular verb.
    Option D is incorrect. It is an interrogative phrase and cannot be used to answer a question. Further, statement 'B' begins with 'No' and so the answer must be a negative phrase. However, 'are there' is positive. For the above reasons, D is incorrect.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with a suitable verb form:
    A: Why didn't you come to the concert last night?
    B: Because I ___________ visit a friend in hospital.
    Solution

    A verb is used to express an occurrence, action, or state. It is the grammatical centre of the predicate in a sentence.

    An auxiliary verb is a verb which is used in the formation of tenses, moods, tones, etc.

    Option A is correct as the question and visit indicates the use of had to.

     The other options are wrong as no other tense can be used here.

    The correct answer is A) had to

  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    She _____ speaks no foreign languages.
    Solution
    In the given sentence, the subject and the verb is in agreement. Also, the intended tone of the sentence is negative and the answer should not change that.
    Option A is incorrect. It is a negative phrase and thus makes the sentence positive as two negatives make a positive. Further, 'is not speaks' does not make sense and so, it does not fit in the sentence.
    Option B is incorrect. It is a negative phrase and thus makes the sentence positive as two negatives make a positive. 'don't speaks' does not make sense.
    Option C is incorrect. It is a negative phrase and thus makes the sentence positive as two negatives make a positive. 'doesn't speaks' does not make sense.
    Option D is correct. As mentioned above, the subject and the verb already agree with each other and adding another verb will make the sentence grammatically incorrect. Thus, none of the above options are correct.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option.
    I'm sorry, but I _____ the test yet.
    Solution
    The sentence is missing a verb and so the answer must be a verb. In the sentence, the subject is saying sorry as his/her test is incomplete. Thus, the apology made by the subject should be justified. Also, the word 'yet' indicates that the action is incomplete and so, the verb must be in present tense.
    Option A is incorrect. 'don't finish' makes the tone of the sentence assertive. It indicates that the subject claims that he/she does not finish the test and supports that claim. Thus, it does not justify the apology made by the subject and is incorrect.
    Option B is correct. 'haven't finished' is in present perfect tense and so it justifies the incomplete action. Also, it supports the apology made by the subject by saying that the subject has not finished the test yet.
    Option C is incorrect. 'didn't finish' is in past tense and so it does not indicate an incomplete action. Thus, it cannot be used in the sentence.
    Option D is incorrect. 'aren't finished' is in present tense but the auxiliary verb used is incorrect. 'aren't' is generally used for plural subjects and the subject in the sentence is singular. Thus, the subject and verb do not agree with each other.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with a suitable verb form:
    You __________ hurry if you want to catch that bus.
    Solution
    The correct answer is Option C.
    HAD BETTER is used to express something desirable. In the given sentence, the speaker is saying that it is desirable that they hurry if you want to catch the bus. Thus HAD BETTER is the correct answer.
    The remaining options are incorrect because they are grammatically incorrect.

  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with a suitable modal:
    This _________ be the right road. There is no other way.
    Solution
    The correct answer is Option B.
    MUST expresses certainty.
    In the given sentence, the speaker is certain that it is the right road because there is no other way.
    The remaining options are incorrect because:
    HAD BETTER is used to give an advice.
    HAVE TO expresses compulsion.
    WOULD RATHER is used to choose when given an option,
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with a suitable verb form:

    You _____________ play an instrument to enjoy classical music.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with a suitable verb form:
    Hurry up! It is a quarter past! We _________ be late.
    Solution
    The correct answer is Option C.
    MUSTN'T expresses compulsion.
    In the given sentence, the speaker is saying that it is compulsary that they must not get late.
    Thus MUSTN'T is the correct answer.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    Peter _____ spending weekends alone.
    Solution
    The given sentence indicates that Peter is not accustomed to spending weekends alone. Thus, the answer must indicate that very fact and so, the answer has to be a negative phrase. 
    Option A is incorrect. 'didn't not' is incorrect because its a double negative and so it makes the sentence positive. Further, it does not indicate Peter's nature of not being accustomed to spending weekends alone.
    Option B is correct. 'wasn't used to' is a negative phrase. Also, the phrase 'used to' means accustomed. Thus, the phrase as a whole indicates that Peter was not accustomed to spending weekends alone and so, it is the correct answer.
    Option C is incorrect. 'hadn't used to' is a negative phrase but, 'hadn't used' means 'not utilized' and not 'not accustomed'. Thus, it simply does not have the correct meaning.
    Option D is incorrect. 'used not to' is a grammatically incorrect phrase. It does not contain any auxiliary to accompany the main verb. Further, the phrase itself does not make any sense.
