    In the given sentence, the subject is 'I', who 'forgot to renew' something. The blank cannot be another person. Hence option A is not the answer. Option B is correct because, the word, 'membership' meaningfully completes the given sentence.

  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Identify the 'common gender noun' used in the following sentence:
    The air-hostess was fed up with the complaints of the writer on board. [Intermediate]
    Solution

    The above mentioned sentence would have Option A, “writer” as the answer.

    In the sentence, there are several nouns which are given: complaint, board, the air-hostess and the writer. The air-hostess is specifically a feminine noun and cannot be used for males and the rest, i.e., option B and C, complaint and board are both neutral nouns, which do not carry the sense of a specific gender. Whereas Option A, writer, can be used for both the genders, irrespective of the both.

    Thus, Option A, is the correct answer.

    Option B- Matriarch means a female head of a family or tribe, hence it is the feminine form of 'Patriarch'. Thus, it is the correct answer.
    Option C- Patroness is the feminine form of patron. Thus, it is incorrect.
    Option D- Mother is the feminine form of father. Hence, it is also incorrect.

    Option D - 'Manageable' is an adjective, which means 'easy or possible to deal with'. Thus option D is incorrect.

  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the correct form of the noun:
    The children in the ________ organised a Ramleela function.
    Solution
    The word, 'neighbour' is a common noun which refers to a person living next door or close by. 'Neighbours' is the plural form of 'neighbour' and is also a common noun. Both the options, A and B are incorrect as the blank has to be filled in by a 'place' and not 'person' or 'persons' . We know this because of the preceding words, 'in the' before the blank. 
    'Neighbourhood' is a common noun which refers to a small place, usually a district within a town or city. This word meaningfully completes the given sentence. Hence, option C is correct.
    Option D is incorrect as option C is the correct answer. 
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Pick out the feminine form of the given masculine noun.

    Widower

    Options A and C are misspelt words. Hence we can eliminate these two options as incorrect answers. 
    Option D,spinster, is the feminine form of bachelor. Thus option D is also incorrect. 
    Option B,widow,is the feminine form of widower. Hence, option B is the correct answer.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Identify the 'common gender noun' used in the following sentence:
    The doctor was running a physical check on the prince, amidst the crowd. 
    Solution

    The above mentioned sentence would have Option C, “Doctor” as the answer.

    In the sentence, there are three nouns which are given: the crowd, the doctor and the prince. While the crowd is a collective noun, the prince happens to be masculine in nature. The only noun which can be applied for both masculine and feminine, is the doctor. A lady doctor and a male doctor both are referred to as the doctor, in the same sense.

    Hence, Option C is the correct answer.
