INDIA PERFORMS CREDITABLY: The Indian cricket team's sterling
______ in Test and One-day matches has pleased every cricket lover.

A
Adventure

B
Superiority

C
Play

D
Performance

Solution

Option A) adventure is incorrect as the sentence talks about a cricket game and the word adventure here is not apt.
Option B) superiority is also incorrect because the sentence does not hint at the greater level of achievement of the team.
Option C) play is a word that would probably fill in the blank correctly but option D) performance is a better word compared to play.
So, the best answer is D) performance.
Question 3
1 / -0

Which word completes the sentence?
Take _________.

A
Difficulty

B
Care

C
Turns

D

Solution

Take care is a complete sentence. The other options are incomplete standing alone. So, the correct answer is B) Care.
Question 4
1 / -0

Rephrase this sentence in a formal email:
'Where on earth are my desktop files?'

A
Can you tell me if you've trashed my dt files?

B
I was wondering if you've moved my desktop items.

C
It would save me a lot of trouble if I knew what you did with my desktop files.

D
How dare you touch my desktop items!

Solution

Option d) is an accusing statement. Also, option A) is a statement that is indirectly blaming the person who is being addressed. Option C) gives an impression of accusation and trouble. The most formal nonaccusatory way of typing the sentence is: Option B) I was wondering if you've moved my desktop items.
Question 5
1 / -0

The following sentence has an error in it. Choose the option that has the incorrect word and the correction against it:

The basis for borrowing or lending money is absolute honesty.

A
Incorrect - or, Correct - but

B
Incorrect - or, Correct - so

C
Incorrect - or, Correct - yet

D
Incorrect - or, Correct - and

Solution

For both borrowing and lending, absolute honesty is needed. When we talk about two or more things that are related to each other or that add information about something, we use 'and' as the conjunction. 'But' is used to show contrast. 'So' is used to state a reason. 'Yet' is used to indicate 'despite of', 'still' or 'even'.
Hence, the correct answer is option D) incorrect= or, correct= and.
Question 6
1 / -0

In the following sentence, one word has been omitted. Pick the option that has the missing word along with the words that come before and after it.

Cars cannot move on smooth tyres the roads they move on are not always dry.

A
Tyres as the

B
Tyres since the

C
Tyres because the

D
Tyres for the

Solution

'Because' is used when the reason is the most important part of the sentence. Since the result - that cars cannot move on smooth tyres - is more important here, we cannot use 'because'. This eliminates option C. Option D) For is used when the reason is given as an afterthought and is also incorrect here. 'As' and 'since' are used when the result is the more important part of the sentence. 'Since' is more formal than 'as'. Since the sentence does not indicate a very formal context, the more appropriate word to use here is option A) tyres as the.

A

B

C

D

Solution

The given sentence refers to a book that is not immediately available with the shopkeeper.
Option A, the phrase 'out of stock' refers to the unavailability of goods for immediate sale in a shop.
Option B, the phrase 'out of order' refers to a device that is not working or broken down.
Option C, the phrase 'off the shelf' refers to buying something that is not specifically designed for you.
Option D, the phrase 'out of print' refers to a book that is no longer available from the publisher.
Thus, according to the meaning of the sentence, the correct option will be Option A.

1 / -0

Choose the best reply to complete the conversation.

Tina: Please come to our house-warming party next week.
Prabha: _____.

A
I would love to come. But I'm not in town next week

B
Thanks ! But I'm away.

C
Can't make it, sorry !

D
Regretfully, I can't.

Solution

Option A 'I would love to come. But I'm not in town next week.' is the appropriate choice to fill in the given sentence as the previous sentence indicates the informal context in the conversation.

Therefore the reply by Prabha should not be in a formal tone which is the case in option D, therefore is incorrect. Whereas option C is not appropriate as it does not have an expression of gratitude and therefore sounds rude, hence incorrect. In option B 'But I'm away' is in present tense and does not indicates the future, therefore incorrect.

Therefore options B, C, D are incorrect. Option A is the correct answer.
