  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with a suitable verb form:
    A: I've got a cold.
    B: Then you'd __________ stay in bed.
    Solution
    The correct answer is Option B.
    BETTER is used to express a desirable action. In the given sentence it is desirable that the person stays in bed because he has a cold.
    The remaining options are incorrect because:
    NEED TO expresses compulsion.
    HAVE TO and SHOULD express obligation.

  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with a suitable option:
    You _________ do your homework. If you don't, you'll fail the examination.
    Solution
    The correct answer is Option A.
    MUST expresses compulsion. In the given sentence, it is compulsory that he does his homework else he will fail the examination.
    Thus MUST is the correct answer.
    The remaining options are incorrect because:
    HAD TO is the past tense.
    MAY and MIGHT expresses possibility.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    Peter made Mary ____ all night.
    Solution
    In the given sentence, the action of making Mary dance all night has been completed. Thus, the answer should either be in the past tense or in the simple present tense which indicates the past.
    Option A is incorrect. 'to dance' in this context is grammatically incorrect because according to rules of usage the verb 'made' does not agree with the infinitive 'to dance'.
    Option B is incorrect. The conjunction 'that' is a conditional conjunction and cannot be used in this context as there is no condition specified. 
    Option C is correct. 'dance' here, is in the correct tense. It also agrees with the subject and is grammatically correct. 
    Option D is incorrect. Since, dancing is in the participle form, it suggests that the action is incomplete, however, in the given sentence, the action has been completed. Thus, it is wrong.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with a suitable option:
    We haven't got much time. We __________ hurry.
    Solution
    The correct answer is Option B.
    MUST expresses compulsion.
    In the given sentence, it is compulsory that they hurry because they do not have much time.
    The remaining options are incorrect because:
    NEEDN'T expresses compulsion to not do something. In the given sentence, there is compulsion to do something.
    DON'T HAVE TO also does not express compulsion to hurry.
    HAS TO is used for singular subject. The given sentence has more than one subject.

  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with a suitable option:
    We have got plenty of time. We _________ hurry.
    Solution
    The correct answer is Option A.
    NEEDN'T is used when it is not essential to do something.
    In the given sentence, the speaker does not require to hurry.
    Thus NEEDN'T is the correct answer.
    The remaining options are incorrect because they are grammatically incorrect.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    Hindi is easy, but English ______.
    Solution
    There are two clauses in the given sentence. The first clause says that Hindi is easy. Now, the conjunction 'but' indicates that the second clause contradicts the first one. Thus, we can say that the answer must indicate that English is not easy.
    Option A is incorrect. 'is' indicates that English is easy but, we want the answer to indicate the exact opposite. Thus, it cannot be the answer.
    Option B is incorrect. 'does not' is incorrect because the verb used is incorrect. We have to assign English, the quality of 'not being' easy. 'Does' cannot assign the quality and so it is not the answer.
    Option C is correct. 'is not' indicates that English is not easy. It is exactly what we need from the answer and so it is the correct answer.
    Option D is incorrect. 'is not, either' indicates that English is not easy but, the word 'either' indicates that Hindi is also not easy. We know that Hindi is easy. Thus, the phrase contradicts a fact stated in the sentence. Thus, it is incorrect
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    He wished she _____ have to spend so much time away.
    Solution
    The word 'wished' in the given sentence indicates that the tense of the sentence is past tense. Thus, the answer must also be in past tense. The sentence also expresses that 'she' had no choice but spend so much time away. 
    Option A is correct. 'didn't' is in the past tense. It is also an imperative auxiliary verb and thus, shows that the subject was unable to come back. Thus, it fulfils all the required conditions for the correct answer. 
    Option B is incorrect. 'hadn't', although in the past tense, does not indicate that 'she' had no other option. Thus, it does not justify the subject's wish that she would not have to spend so much time away.  
    Option C is incorrect. 'doesn't' is in the simple present tense and thus, will make the sentence inconsistent. 
    Option D is incorrect. 'couldn't' indicates that 'she' can come back but she doesn't do so making the subject wish that she would come back. This will change the indication made by the sentence.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with a suitable option:
    He __________ take his medicine three times a day. The doctor told him to.
    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 three times a day indicates the use of has to  (to suggest compulsion and necessity)

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

    The correct answer is A)has to

  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with a suitable option:
    I feel tired. I ___________ go to bed.
    Solution
    The correct answer is Option C.
    HAD BETTER expresses something desirable.
    In the given sentence, the speaker feels it is desirable that he goes to bed because he is tired.
    Thus HAD BETTER is the correct answer.
    The remaining options are incorrect because:
    HAD TO expresses compulsion in the past tense.
    HAS TO expresses compulsion in the present tense.
    USED TO expresses a habit or custom.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option.
    We __________ helped you even if we had wanted to because we did not know how to do it.
    Solution
    From the sentence, we can conclude that the subjects were unable to help. Thus, the answer must indicate the inability of the subjects to help. Further, the words 'had wanted' and 'did not' indicate that the tense of the sentence is past tense. Thus, the answer must also be in past tense.
    Option A is incorrect. 'may not have' indicates that there was a possibility that the subjects did not help but, they actually did. This does not indicate the required meaning and also contradicts the fact that the subjects did not help.
    Option B is incorrect. 'can't have' is in the present tense and not the past tense. Thus, using it will make the tense of the sentence inconsistent.
    Option C is incorrect. 'might not have' does not indicate inability but indicates a possibility that the subjects did not help. Thus, it cannot be the answer.
    Option D is correct. 'couldn't have' expresses the subject's inability to help. It is also in the past tense and so it meets all the required conditions. Thus, it is correct.
