  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Choose the correct adjective from the options given.

    Option C) stressing: is a verb and the present participle of 'stress'
    Option D) Stressful: is an adjective used to describe something that causes stress of any kind.

  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Complete the sentence with the correct degree of adjective from the options given.
    I made a painting yesterday. It was good, but not ___________ as yours.
    Solution
    The given sentence compares two things: the speaker's painting - "I made a painting...It was good" and the listener's painting - "as yours".
    Option A: 'As' in 'as good' presents a comparison. It completes the sentence in meaning and grammar. Also, 'as...as' is a pair of conjunctions that is used in sentences in the positive degree. And 'good' is a positive adjective. Hence A is correct.
    Options B, C and D:
    'Good', 'better' and 'best' are the positive, comparative and superlative adjectives, respectively.
    'Good' requires the conjunction 'as', 'better' requires the conjunction 'than' and 'best requires the article 'the', to form the suitable degrees of the sentence. Without these words, the sentence is grammatically and logically incorrect. Hence these options are wrong.

  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Complete the sentence with the correct degree of adjective from the options given.
    ____________ marks in the History test were 94.
    Solution
    Adjectives are words that modify nouns or pronouns to make them more specific. 

    There are 3 degrees of adjectives: Positive, comparative and superlative.

    The comparative form of most words is formed by adding '-er' to the original word. The superlative form of the word is formed by adding '-est' to the original word. The word 'the' is used before the superlative degree of words because the superlative degree of the word can indicate one particular thing. In the question given, the sentence talks about 'marks in the history test'. 

    Option A) 'the better' is incorrect because 'the' is not used with the comparative degree of a word such as 'better'.

    Option B) 'best' is incorrect because it should always be preceded by the article 'the'.

    Option D) 'the good' is incorrect because 'good' is the positive degree word and 'the' is used with the superlative degree of a word.

    Therefore, the correct answer is option C) the best.

    'informative' is an adjective which means 'providing useful information'. 'informing' is a verb which is 'the act of providing useful information'.

    The Boeing 747 makes ___________ noise than Concorde.
    Solution
    In this sentence we would understand the degree of comparison. Most adjectives have three different forms to show degrees of comparison—the positive, the comparative, and the superlative. The positive is used to describe one item, group, or person. ... There are different ways to form the comparative and superlative degrees of adjectivesLet us look into the options given below. 
    Option A: Much is usually not used in adjective of comparison. 
    Option B: Less is used in positive degree of comparison. 
    Option C: Most is usually used for superlative degree when there are more than two things getting compared. 
    Option D: Least is again the superlative degree where there are more than two things getting compared. 
    In this sentence, there is mention of two things that are getting compared. Option C and D is not in our option. Option B is the correct answer. 
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    This bag isn't _________ it looks.
    Solution
    Positive degree is the base form of the adjective or adverb. It does not show comparison. If we look into Option C, the structure as…as is used to compare things that are of similar proportion. In this case the first as acts as an adverb modifying the adjective or adverb that goes after it. The second as can act as a preposition or conjunction. If it is used as a preposition, it will be followed by a noun or pronoun. If it is used as a conjunction, it will be followed by a clause. The structure as…as cannot be used to measure things of unequal proportion. In this case, we have to use comparative + than or superlative+than. This makes as....as a positive degree of comparison. In this particular sentence, the comparison is of similar proportion.
    Option B and Option C are ideal for this blank according to the explanation. Although in option A, instead of adjective adverb is used (lightly), which makes it the wrong choice. 
    Option A is correct.
