Weekly Quiz Competition

Question 1
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
Do you know where ____ ?

A
will they meet

B
they will meet

C
do they meet

D
are they meeting

Solution

Let’s examine the sentence: “Do you know where ____ ?” The sentence is in the form of a question and it has two clauses. The first clause is in the interrogative form with question starting with ‘do.’ Do or does questions have the following structure: Do/Does + Subject + Base Verb. The first clause matches this structure with Do + you (as subject) + know (as base verb). The second clause is a statement. Hence, it will become with subject (noun or pronoun) and not a verb. As only Option B meets this condition, it is the correct answer.
Question 2
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
George's father told him ________.

A
don't go out

B
not go out

C
not to go out

D
do not go out

Solution

The given sentence is in the indirect mode of narration, where the direction of not going out has been transformed into the indirect form, not directly addressing the subject. Option C is the most appropriate answer because it consists of the necessary format in the correct syntax. Option B lacks the preposition to hold together the verb and the adverb. Options A and D contain variations of the auxiliary verb do, which directly address the subject, thus not fitting the syntax of indirect speech. Hence, Options A,B and D are all incorrect.
Question 3
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
I don't know __________.

A
when is it

B
what time it is

C
what time is it

D
when was it

Solution

Option B seems to be the most appropriate answer because it follows the correct syntax of indirect speech, the question word followed by the noun and then the verb in the present tense to match with that in the first part of the sentence. Moreover, the pronoun it owes reference to the noun and hence, does not need any explanation. Option C is incorrect because it follows incorrect syntax. Options A and D follow the syntax of an interrogative sentence, and also, there is no implication of what "it" is here. Therefore, Options A,C and D are all incorrect.
Question 4
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
John has written a novel and ____ .

A
so his sister, has

B
so his sister

C
so has his sister

D
so did his sister

Solution

Let’s examine the sentence: “John has written a novel and ____ .” When we see the options, we understand that the blank needs a clause reiterating the fact given in the first clause of the sentence but for John’s sister. Hence, the adverb ‘so’ would be used to express the similarity of fact in both the clauses. The adverb ‘so’ means ‘to the same extent’ when used in comparisons. Now, the tense would also be the same and to emphasize the fact stated in the first clause, same helping verb as used in the first clause would be taken here after ‘so.’ As Option C fulfills these conditions, it is the correct answer. Other options cannot be used as they would make the sentence meaningless.
Question 5
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
He explained why _______.

A
did he come late

B
was he late

C
late he was

D
he was late

Solution

Option D is the correct answer. It follows the correct syntax for indirect mode of narration, the question word followed by the pronoun and then the verb. Options A,B and C are incorrect because of their wrong syntax, incompatible with the indirect speech.
Question 6
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
Does anybody know why _________?

A
does the teacher get angry

B
Ray is absent

C
is he waiting outside

D
are they late
Question 7
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
Where ________.

A
Ali works?

B
works Ali?

C
does Ali work?

D
Ali is working?

Solution

Option C constitutes of the correct modal verb to assist the singular noun and the main verb in the sentence. Options A,B and D lack the auxiliary modal verb to go along with the main verb. Thus, option C is the correct answer.
Question 8
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
We played tennis until ____________.

A
school opens

B
the weather gets old

C
we got tired

D
it starts raining

Solution

Option C includes the correct form of the verb in the past tense, which is compatible with the tense of the verb in the first part of the sentence, indicating the work already being done. The statements of options A,B and D all have the verb in the present tense, which is incoherent with the first verb in the sentence. Thus, Option C is the correct answer.
Question 9
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
Could you tell me where _________?

A
the bus station was

B
is the bus station

C
the bus station is

D
was the bus station

Solution

It is necessary for the second part of the sentence to follow the correct syntax and be compatible with the main verb of the first part of the sentence. Option C comprises the present tense in the correct order, the interrogative word followed by the noun succeeded the verb. Option A is incorrect because the tense is in the past tense. Options C and D follow the incorrect form of syntax. Hence, option C is the most appropriate answer.
Question 10
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
Tell me _________.

A
where is the station

B
what is your name

C
why she is crying

D
how did you learn English

Solution

Following the syntax of indirect speech, Option C constitutes the question word followed by the question word succeeded by the verb. The statements in options A,B and D are incorrect, for they follow the syntax of interrogative sentences, the question word being followed by the verb. Thus, option C is the most appropriate answer.
