    1 / -0
    Indenting helps to ______________. 
    Solution

    Indentation refers to the subheadings, points, sub-points, sub-subheadings, etc. in note making. Indentation offers a well-defined structure for a note. It makes it readable and increases the objectives of the content. Hence, D is correct answer as indenting lends a visual character through spacing and writing in points, subpoints etc. It also helps in reviewing the passage at a glance. As, it is written in points and headings and sub headings, these are indicated clearly. Only A, B and C are incorrect as all together are correct.

    Fill in the blank with suitable word for blank [2].
    Solution
    The given letter is an informal letter and we must fill in the second blank with the most suitable option. 'I have just...' explains us that the sentence is in present perfect tense. Let's find an appropriate verb.
    Option A - 'Receiving' is a verb in continuous tense, and we need a verb in the perfect tense. Hence, option A is incorrect.
    Option C - 'Getting' is a verb in continuous tense, hence, it doesn't grammatically fit in the blank. Hence, option C is incorrect.
    Option D - 'Now receive' is grammatically incorrect. 'I have just now receive' is grammatically incorrect as, the verb is not in present perfect tense. Hence, option D is incorrect.
    Option B - Yes, 'I have just received the lovely camera...' is in present perfect tense and is grammatically correct. Hence, option B is correct.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Choose the best option to complete the dialogue.
    Jack: "____________"
    Nick: "Yes, of course. How much do you need?"
    Jack: "I need just enough for taxi fare."
    Solution
    Here, we have to complete the dialogue by reading the next/Nick's dialogue. As we see, Nick says 'Yes, of course'. 'Yes' or 'No' is used only when a person asks a question. Reading the third dialogue, we can understand, that Jack needs some money for taxi fare. Let's look at the options now:
    Option B - 'Excuse me' is used to address strangers, or we use it to ask someone to excuse us. According to the conversation, they seem to know each other. Hence, option B is incorrect.
    Option C - 'Give me some change' is not a question. If Jack doesn't ask a question, then Nick wouldn't answer in 'Yes'. Also, rather than directly ordering someone to lend money, we must always ask them politely. Hence, option C is incorrect.
    Option D - 'I need some change' is not a question. If Jack doesn't ask a question, then Nick wouldn't answer in 'Yes'. Hence, option C is incorrect.
    Option A - 'Nick, won't you help me with some change?' is a correct question. It's a question, it also addresses Nick and it is a polite dialogue. Hence, option A is incorrect.

    ...view full instructions

    Fill in blank [1] with a suitable option:
    Solution

    The present continuous verb tense indicates that an action or condition is happening now, frequently, and may continue into the future. From the clue given in the context, we can infer that the plan is an ongoing plan. Hence, the verb should be in present continuous form. Thus, D can be ruled out.
    By using "forming" the sentence will have an error of diction as "forming to form" is grammatically incorrect. Hence, A is also incorrect.
    The context clearly mentions "plans", thus option C is incorrect.
    D is correct as it connects to the context and the verb is in the correct tense form.  Present continuous "to be [am, is, are] + verb [present participle]". 

  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Following are important steps in identifying the main concepts of a text, EXCEPT -
    Solution
    The correct answer is Option C.
    The question is on the step which is not a part of identifying the main concepts of a text.
    In summary writing, it is first essential to understand the text. Then a writer divides the text into sections to understand the ideas presented and looks for key words in the text to facilitate identification of important points to be included in the summary. Therefore Option A,B and D are not the correct options.
    In summary writing, it is to be noted that a writer only writes on the important ideas of the text. He is NOT supposed to include his own views. Thus option C is not part of identification of the main concepts of a text- Option C is the correct answer. 
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Identify the section(s) of report writing from the following:
    Solution
    The correct answer is option D.
    Report writing contains title, summary, introduction, body, and conclusion. 
    Therefore, it includes all options A,B, and C.
    Hence option D - All of the above is the correct answer.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Subheading in a note is framed on the basis of these, EXCEPT _______________.
    Solution
    Subheadings are the subdivisions of the main topic. As many subheadings can be used as required. It is like the heading to the subsections of the passage. Thus, subheadings give detailed information and can also communicate the main idea or even the conclusion. They are not used for associated ideas as they only address the issue at hand. Thus, only B is correct. 
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with a suitable option. 
    Following points should be kept in mind while note-making, except __________. 
    Solution
    The correct answer is Option A.
    We are to identify the point that should not be taken into consideration while making a note.
    Note-making follows a fixed format and certain rules are to be followed.
    Note-making employs the use of abbreviations as rules of grammar, punctuation, and spelling are to be ignored in writing a note. 
    Maintaining equal distance from the margin is important.
    Mentioning the heading and sub-heading also is a part of note-making.
    Hence option B, C, and D are the incorrect options.
    Note-making is to contain only important and significant details. Mentioning every detail is strictly not to be done.
    Option A is the correct answer.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Which of the following statements is correct?
    Solution
    Choice A is correct as note need not be grammatically correct, it must communicate a detail in general. Choice B is wrong as it does not have follow grammar. Choice C is wrong as it need give details Choice D is wrong
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Select the option that is NOT an inappropriate way to end a telephone conversation. 
    Solution
    A dialogue is a two-way exchange of ideas, thoughts, etc. in words between two or more people. Option A)Saying, "Thank you for calling." is correct as it is appropriate to use to end a telephonic conversation. It is a polite expression of farewell that one can use to end a conversation on the phone. 
    The other options are wrong as they don't comply with the standard of a fine conversation, such actions are considered impolite.
