Question 1
1 / -0

Rearrange the words to make a meaningful sentence:
rules / one / by / must / abide / the.

A
Rules must abide by the one.

B
The rules by one must abide.

C
One must abide by the rules.

D
One the rules by abide must.

Solution

The basic order of words in a sentence is: subject + verb + object.
A sentence may not contain an object, depending on the verb. Transitive verbs like 'appear', 'die', etc do not require objects.
To this basic structure, different elements can be added. For example, noun phrases, adjective phrases, subject complements, types of clauses and so on.
Option C: The structure in this sentence complies with the basic structure:
subject (One) + modal verb (must) + phrasal verb (abide by) + object (the rules)
Hence C is correct.
(A phrasal verb is a main verb paired with an adverb or a preposition.)
Option A: The order does not create a meaningful sentence. 'Rules' has taken over the subject and 'the one' has taken over the place of the object.
Option B: Similarly, the order of words here isn't correct either.
Option D: The order is a jumble of words which do not form a coherent meaning.
Hence options A, B and D are incorrect.
Question 2
1 / -0

Rearrange the words to make a meaningful sentence:
situated / where / is / Nepal / ?

A
Where Nepal is situated?

B
Where is Nepal situated?

C
Where situated is Nepal?

D
Is where Nepal situated?

Solution

The basic order of words in a sentence is: subject + verb + object.
In an interrogative sentence, the order is slightly altered. A question word (who, what, why, etc.) precedes the subject. If there is a helping verb along with the main verb, then it comes after the question word and before the subject.

Option B: The structure in this sentence complies with the basic structure:
question word (Where) + verb (is) + subject (Nepal) + adjective (situated)
Hence B is correct.
Option A: The order isn't right. The verb must be placed before the subject, in this type of question.
Options C and D: Similarly, the order in each of these is a jumble of words which do not form a coherent meaning.
Hence options A, C and D are incorrect.
Question 3
1 / -0

Following are some jumbled words.
Select the option which rearranges them meaningfully.
taken$$|$$ to $$|$$ the $$|$$ hospital $$|$$ were $$|$$ the injured.

A
To the hospital were injured the taken.

B
The injured taken to the hospital were.

C
The injured were taken to the hospital.

D
To the hospital were taken the injured.

Solution

Option A - This sentence means that the hospital was injured. As the subject 'the injured' and the object 'to the hospital' are not in place, the sentence is grammatically incorrect. Hence, option A is incorrect.
Option B - An auxiliary verb is always placed after the subject to explain its state of being. As 'were' is placed after the object, the given sentence is grammatically incorrect. Hence, option B is incorrect.
Option D - As the sentence is reversed (object-verb-subject), it is grammatically incorrect. Hence, option D is incorrect.
Option C - The subject 'The injured' and the object 'to the hospital' are in place. Also, the auxiliary 'were' is placed right after the subject to determine 'the injured' people's state of being. Hence, option C is the correct answer.
'The injured were taken to the hospital.'
Question 4
1 / -0

Following are some jumbled words.
Select the option which rearranges them meaningfully.
sun $$|$$ shines $$|$$ in $$|$$ the $$|$$ summer $$|$$ the $$|$$ brightly.

A
Brightly the sun shines in the summer.

B
The sun shines brightly in the summer.

C
In the summer the shines sun brightly.

D
In the summer the sun shines brightly.

Solution

Option A - 'Brightly' is an adverb and adverbs are usually placed after the verbs. Hence, option A is incorrect.
ofinOption C - As the adverb 'brightly' defines the way 'the Sun shines', it is the subject of the sentence. 'Shines sun' is grammatically incorrect as a verb is never placed before a noun. 'In the summer' describes more about the adverb and the noun here, hence it should be the object the sentence. Hence, option C is incorrect.
Option D - As the adverb 'brightly' defines the way 'the Sun shines', it is the subject of the sentence. 'In the summer' describes more about the adverb and the noun here, hence it should be the object of the sentence. Hence, option D is incorrect.
Option B - 'The sun shines brightly in the summer' is grammatically correct as the adverb is placed after the verb and the descriptive clause 'in the summer' is the object of the sentence. Hence, option B is the correct answer.
'The sun shines brightly in the summer.'
Question 5
1 / -0

Following are some jumbled words.
Select the option which rearranges them meaningfully.
for $$|$$ faults $$|$$ who $$|$$ responsible $$|$$ is $$|$$ the $$|$$?

A
For faults is responsible who the?

B
For the faults who is responsible?

C
Is responsible for the faults who?

D
Who is responsible for the faults?

Solution

Option A - As the given sentence has a question mark, it is an interrogatory sentence, it should begin with the question word 'who'. Auxiliary 'is' should be placed after 'who' to determine the state of being. 'For the faults' is the objective clause, which should be placed at the end of the question. Hence, option is incorrect.
Option B - As the sentence is an interrogatory sentence, we should begin the question with a question word and not the object. Hence, option B is incorrect.
Option C - Though 'is' is used as an auxiliary question word, we must use 'who' as it is the question word in the given sentence and 'is' is just an auxiliary verb. Hence, option C is incorrect.
Option D - The given sentence begins with a question word and is accompanied by the auxiliary 'is' and the verb 'responsible'. The objective clause 'for the faults' is in its place. Hence, option D is the correct answer.
'Who is responsible for the faults?'
Question 6
1 / -0

Rearrange the words to make a meaningful sentence:
don't / have / I / money / enough.

A
Enough money don't have I.

B
I don't have enough money.

C
I have don't enough money.

D
Don't have enough money I.

Solution

The basic order of words in a sentence is: subject + verb + object.
A sentence may not contain an object, depending on the verb. Transitive verbs like 'appear', 'die', etc do not require objects.
Option B: The structure in this sentence complies with the basic structure:
subject (I) + verb (don't have) + object (enough money).
Hence B is correct.
Option A: It does not follow the required order. As a result, a meaningful sentence isn't formed.
Option C: The order of the verbs "have don't" isn't correct. 'Don't' is an auxiliary verb or a helping verb. Auxiliary verbs are generally placed before the main verbs (have).
Option D: The order isn't right here too. The subject is placed at the end of the sentence.
Hence options A, C and D are incorrect.
Question 7
1 / -0

Pick out the object of the verb in the given sentence:
We learnt how to make profiteroles today.

A
We

B
learnt

C
how to make profiteroles

D
today

Solution

The object is the person or thing that receives the action in a sentence. In the given sentence, "how to make profiteroles" is a noun phrase that is the recipient of the action "learnt" as it answer the question: What did they learn? Hence it is the object and option C is correct. "We" is the subject and "learnt" is the verb, hence options A and B are incorrect. "Today" is the adverb of time that modifies the verb "learnt", hence option D is incorrect.
Question 8
1 / -0

Rearrange the words to make a meaningful sentence:
horse / has / the / hurt / itself.

A
Horse has hurt the itself.

B
Itself has the horse hurt.

C
The horse has hurt itself.

D
Hurt itself has the horse.

Solution

The basic order of words in a sentence is: subject + verb + object.
A sentence may not contain an object, depending on the verb. Transitive verbs like 'appear', 'die', etc do not require objects.
To this basic structure, different elements can be added. For example, noun phrases, adjective phrases, subject complements, types of clauses and so on.
Option C: The structure in this sentence complies with the basic structure:
subject (The horse) + auxiliary verb (has) + main verb (hurt) + object (itself).
Hence C is the correct option.
Option A: It's a jumble of words which do not make a meaningful sentence.
Option B: The sentence does not follow the required order. The incorrect order that it follows is: object + auxiliary + subject + main verb.
Option D: Similarly, here, too, the sentence does not follow the required order.
Hence options A, B and D are incorrect.
Question 9
1 / -0

Rearrange the words to make a meaningful sentence:
listen / what / to / parents / your / say.

A
What your parents say listen to.

B
Your parents say listen to what.

C
Listen to what your parents say.

D
Say what your parents listen to.

Solution

The basic order of words in a sentence is: subject + verb + object.
A sentence may not contain an object, depending on the verb. Transitive verbs like 'appear', 'die', etc do not require objects.
To this basic structure, different elements can be added. For example, noun phrases, adjective phrases, subject complements, types of clauses and so on.
Option C: The structure in this sentence complies with the basic structure:
subject (you) + main verb (listen to) + object (what your parents say).
When a sentence is an order or command, the subject 'you' is generally implied.
Hence C is correct.
Option A: The sentence is in the order: object + verb, which isn't correct.
Option B: Similarly, the order of words here isn't correct either. "Your parents" has taken over as the subject and "listen to what" has become the object. As a result, the sentence is not complete in meaning.
Option D: The order is a jumble of words which do not form a coherent meaning.
Hence options A, B and D are incorrect.
('What your parents say' is a noun clause that functions as the object of the verb.)
Question 10
1 / -0

Given below are some jumbled words. Rearrange them into a meaningful sentence:
an $$|$$ e-mail $$|$$ $$?$$ $$|$$ who $$|$$ wrote.

A
An e-mail wrote who?

B
Who wrote an e-mail?

C
Who an e-mail wrote?

D
Wrote who an e-mail?

Solution

Option A - As the given sentence has a question mark, it should begin with the question word 'who'. Hence, option A is incorrect.
Option C - A question word is always accompanied by the verb or an auxiliary verb to determine the state of being/doing. As 'wrote' is at the end of the question, it is grammatically incorrect. Hence, option C is incorrect.
Option D - As the given sentence has a question mark, it should begin with the question word 'who'. Hence, option D is incorrect.
Option B - 'Wrote' is mentioned right after the question word 'who' to determine the tense of the interrogatory sentence and 'an e-mail' is also in place. Hence, option B is the correct answer.
'Who wrote an e-mail?'
