     Fill in blank no. (3) with a suitable option:
    Solution

    The correct answer is option D.

    The correct answer is the word that indicates a place that is being described at present.

    Option A is incorrect because ‘when’ indicates the time and not place.

    Option B is incorrect because ‘there’ indicates a place at a distance. It is not appropriate for the given context because the place described is not at a distance.

    Option C is incorrect because ‘here’ indicates a nearby place and is used in the present tense. The given passage is in the past tense. Hence option C is incorrect.
    Option D WHERE can be appropriately used to refer to the place where Ph.D. was done. It indicates the place that is being described at present.
    Hence option D is the correct answer.

    Fill in blank no. (4) with a suitable option:
    Solution

    The correct answer is option C.

    Option C is the correct answer as 'to care’ indicates correctly the reason why Suu Kyi returned. 

    Options A, B and D are incorrect because they do not correctly indicate the reason of Suu Kyi's return.

    Option A : caring is an adjective used to describe a person.

    Option B : Cared is in the past tense and cannot be used to indicate the reason of return.

    Option D : cares can be used a verb in the present tense and not to indicate reason.

    Hence the above options are incorrect and option C is the correct answer.

    The prisoner showed no ___________ for his crimes.
    Solution
    Remorse is an emotion/action/feeling after the crime is done. Hatred is for the other people who saw/hear/gone through crime but certainly not for the prisoner. Crime is done in anger and a cause. Obstinacy is stubbornness. Only emotion that suits the context is Remorse.

    ...view full instructions

     Fill in blank number (2):
    Solution
    The given passage is about television in today's times. So, the tense of this sentence: 'There ___(2)___ news, views, plays, films, music, magic shows, cartoon films, games and sports, religious programmes' will be in the simple present tense.
    Options A and B: 'Are' is the most suitable option here, because it refers to the simple present. Also, it's a plural verb that refers to many things: news, views, plays, etc.
    In comparison, 'is' also refers to the same tense, but it's used when the noun that follows is singular. In the given sentence, there are many nouns mentioned.
    Hence option A is correct and B is incorrect.
    Options C and D: 'Have been' and 'has been' both refer to the past perfect tense. They state an action that began in the past and has just ended.
    But, the given passage states general facts about television, that are still true at present. Hence both options are incorrect.
    ('Has' refers to singular nouns and 'have' refers to plural.)
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Frame a Wh question that corresponds to the given answer:
    Question: _________________________
    Answer: Yes, he enjoys his job very much.
    Solution
    Since the answer is 'Yes..', we need to frame a 'Yes/No' question. The syntax for an interrogative sentence of the 'Yes/No' kind is: Helping verb + subject + main verb  ........? The question and answer take the same tense. Hence, the tense of the question will be the simple present tense. Therefore, the correct option is: Does he enjoy his job?
  • Question 8
    1 / -0

    Directions For Questions

    Choose the word which best fills the blank from the four options given.

    ...view full instructions

    We have not yet fully realised the ___________ consequences of the war.
    Solution
    War is a negative word and it is synonym with mass destruction, death hence certainly has grim consequences. Happy, Pleasing, exciting all have positive sense; so can not be linked with war.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Choose the correct phrase from the given options to complete the sentence.
    Their earnings are such that they find it difficult ______.
    Solution
    Option D is the correct answer because it contains the set of words incorrect syntax to make complete sense of the sentence, which the other options fail to do and, thus, they are incorrect. 
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Frame a Wh question that corresponds to the following answer:
    Question: _______________
    Answer: I live in Manchester.
    Solution
    The reply here states the name of a place. To ask about a place, we use the wh word 'where'. The syntax for an interrogative sentence is: Wh word + helping verb + subject ......? The tense of the question should be in the simple present tense because the reply is in the simple present tense as well. Therefore, the correct option is: Where do you live now?
