Weekly Quiz Competition
  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    A teacher is a person _________.
    Solution
    Option C, who teaches, is the most appropriate answer. Taking into consideration the subject teacher, the verb best qualifying it would be teaching, because a teacher is indeed a person who teaches. Options A,B and D are incorrect because the statements mentioned therein do not necessarily denote the profession of a teacher. 
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    The sky is __________ . I don't think it will rain.
    Solution
    We use the adjective 'clear' with 'sky'. We say, 'clear sky' and not 'clean sky'. Clean signifies something which is not dirty. 'Clear Sky' refers to a sky which is not cloudy. Option B is correct and the others are not because they do not provide the correct answer.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    Please tell me where ________.
    Solution
    Option C follows the correct syntax where the question word is followed by the noun, and then the verb in the simple present to math with the tense in the first part of the sentence. Option A follows the syntax of an interrogative sentence where the verb lies between the question word and the noun. Options B is incorrect for the tense of the wrong. Peter here is a third person in the singular number. Hence, an -s will be added to the verb indicating the simple present tense. The syntax of the statement of option D also incorrect in this context. The use of the modal right before the main verb indicated confirmation of an already done activity, which is not indicated here. Thus, options A,B and D are all incorrect.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    No buses were running _________.
    Solution
    Option D is the correct answer. It is the suitable effect of the cause presented in the first part of the sentence. Options A,B and C are incorrect because the cause and effect of the sentence are in conflict with each other. Buses not running is not a reason cause for one not having a ticket, or being late, neither for being at the bus stop. It can however lead one to walk due to the absence of said buses. 
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option (use reported speech).
    Joan said that ____________.
    Solution
    The given sentence is in the reported speech. In reported speech the subject is referred to only in third person pronouns. Thus, the answer must refer to the subject using a third person pronoun.
    Option A is incorrect. 'I'm' indicates that the subject is being referred to using first person pronoun and so, it cannot be used in reported speech. 
    Option B is incorrect. Although 'she' indicates that the subject is referred to using third person pronoun, 'were' can only be used with plural subjects or in conditional statements. Since the question does not have either of them, 'were' makes the phrase grammatically incorrect.
    Option C is correct. It refers to the subject using third person pronoun. It is also a grammatically correct statement and so, it is the correct answer.
    Option D is incorrect. 'you' indicates that the subject is being referred to using second person pronoun and so, it cannot be used in reported speech.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    A: Would you like a cigarette?
    B: No, thanks ________.
    Solution
    Option B is the correct answer. Answering the question asked, the statement of option B is in the simple present expressing the subject's state of perpetual avoidance of smoking, implying that he does not partake in the activity. Options C and D are in the wrong tense and inconsequential to the question asked. Option A is grammatically incorrect, involving the modal in the future tense followed by a gerund. The future tense is incoherent with the tense of the question being asked.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    I don't think I'll beat him. I'm out of ___________.
    Solution
    There are a few phrases commonly used in sports. They are: 'out of practice', 'out of form', 'out of touch'. In this context, it seems that two persons are involved in a game where one is apprehensive about his defeat because he's out of practice. So, option D is correct and the others are not because they do not provide the correct answer.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    Your heart is the part of your body ________.
    Solution
    Option A is the correct answer. The adjective/conjunction which joins the two parts of the sentence together, along with it being the appropriate work for the heart mentioned in the sentence. Options B,C and D are incorrect owing to the fact they do not go along with sentence, neither in meaning, nor with the absence of  an adjective holding the sentence together.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    A: What ____ ?
    B: It's November 22, 1984.
    Solution
    In the given question, 'B' is the answer to 'A' and it is mentioning a date. If the answer is telling a date, the question must inquire about a date. Also, since 'A' is a question, the answer must be an interrogative phrase.
    Option A is incorrect. 'the date is' includes a date but, it is not an interrogative phrase and so, it cannot be used to ask a question. Thus, it is incorrect.
    Option B is incorrect. 'day' is not an interrogative word by itself and also it does not inquire about a date. Thus, it is incorrect.
    Option C is correct. 'is the date' is an interrogative phrase that inquires about a date. Thus, it meets the required conditions and is the correct answer.
    Option D is incorrect. 'day is today' is not inquiring about a date but is asking about a day. Thus, it is incorrect.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    I've __________ for a job in Mexico. I hope I get it.
    Solution
    By general convention, everybody applies for a job. That is why the phrase 'job application' has originated. In this context, the word 'apply' would best suit the scenario.
    Hence, option A is correct and the other options are incorrect because they do not provide the correct answer.
