Weekly Quiz Competition
  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Use the superlative degree of comparison in the following sentence:

    She is _____ (short) lady in the room.
    Solution
    A sentence is said to be in the superlative degree of comparison when a noun is of the highest quality. In the given sentence, the noun 'She' is the 'shortest' compared to the other ladies in the room. The article 'the' is used before the superlative 'shortest' because the noun is specific, option D has the phrase 'the shortest' hence it's the correct option. Option A is incorrect because the word does not show any degree of comparison on its own. Option B is incorrect because it's a positive degree of comparison (as short as) . Option C is incorrect because it's a comparative degree of comparison (shorter than).
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Choose the correct option to fill the blank:
    Jasbeer is taller ____ you.
    Solution
    The word 'Than' is used for comparative adjectives. (here: taller) Comparative adjectives are used in varying degrees for comparison of the same quality between different individuals. The other options - 'or' 'and' and 'with' do not fit with the comparative adjective. 
    Hence, the correct option is option B.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the correct option:
    The picnic was _____ fun after so much of studying. 
    Solution
    The picnic is expressed in terms of fun and the latter part of the sentence expresses the degree of studying. (So much).
    To compliment 'so much of studying' we need to add a suitable adjective before fun which brings the degree of fun at par with studying. 

    Options 'Rather' and 'Better' get ruled out because they change the context and meaning. 
    From 'Much More' and 'Much', we need to decide. In comparison to 'much', 'much more' is a degree higher. Therefore, it goes the best with 'so much studying'.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most suitable adjective from the options given below:
    Discipline is essential to live ________.
    Solution
    The given sentence requires the most suitable form of adjective. This sentence is a general statement. It isn't a comparative statement. It just states a fact. We use the positive degree of adjectives for general statements. Hence, we can say - 'Discipline is essential to live long.' Thus, the correct answer is C - Long. Option A - 'Longer' is incorrect as we aren't comparing anything here, we can't use the comparative degree of adjective. Option B is incorrect, as 'longest' is a superlative degree of adjective and shouldn't be used for general statements. Option D is incorrect, as option C is the answer.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Select the correct degree of comparison in the following sentence:
    I have never seen a ________ hill station than Ladakh.
    Solution
    Option A - 'Picturesque' is the positive degree of the adjective which can be used when there is no comparison in the sentence. The word 'than' explains that there is a comparison in the sentence, we can't use 'picturesque' here. Thus option A is incorrect.
    Option C - 'Most picturesque' is the superlative degree of the adjective. As the given sentence compares 'Ladakh' with other hill stations, we can't use the superlative degree here. Thus option C is incorrect.
    Option B - 'More picturesque' is the comparative degree of the adjective, which can be used here to compare 'Ladakh' with other hill station. Thus option B is the correct answer.
    Option D - Option D is incorrect as option B is the correct answer.
    'I have never seen a more picturesque hill station than Ladakh.'
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Identify the adjective out of the given options.
    Solution
    Adjectives are words that modify nouns or pronouns to make them more specific.
    The options given are:
    Option A) annually is an adverb which means 'doing something once in a year'.
    Option B) apply is a verb which means 'making a formal request'.
    Option C) jolly is an adjective which means 'jovial' or 'cheerful'.
    Option D) badly is an adverb which means 'something that is done poorly or imperfectly'.
    Therefore, the correct answer to the given question is option C) jolly.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Complete the sentence by choosing the correct option:
    No other team is ________ our team. 
    Solution
    The given sentence is in the positive degree of comparison because they begin with the words 'No other'. As we have studied, sentences that begin with 'no other' are usually positive degree sentences, sentences with 'more... than any other' are comparative, and those with 'the best/most...of all' are superlative.
    Option C: 'As strong as' is in the positive degree. It agrees with the sentence, that 'no other team is as strong as our team'. Hence option C is correct.
    Option A: 'Stronger' is a comparative adjective, and it requires the linking word 'than', which is used in comparative sentences. Hence option A is incorrect.
    Option B: 'Strongest than' is not the correct form. 'Strongest' is a superlative whereas 'than' refers to the comparative. Hence option B is incorrect.
    Option D is incorrect because the answer lies in C.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Choose the correct adjective from the options given.
    It is not _________ to cycle down the busy main road.
    Solution
    Adjectives are words that modify nouns or pronouns to make them more specific.
    The options given are:
    Option A) advise is a verb which means 'to give suggestion' or 'counsel'.
    Option B) advising is the present participle of the word advise and is also a verb.
    Option C) advisable is an adjective which means 'to recommend or suggest'.
    Option D) advice is a noun which means 'guidance' or 'recommendation'.
    Therefore, the correct word that fills in the blank is option C) advisable.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most suitable adjective from the options given below :
    This is the _______ novel I have ever read.
    Solution
    The given sentence needs to be filled with the most suitable adjective. Looking at the sentence, we can say that it requires a superlative adjective ('I have ever read'). The words 'ever' and 'the' show the need for a superlative adjective. Hence the correct answer is A - most interesting - This is the most interesting novel I have every read. Option B is incorrect, as 'more interesting' is the comparative adjective, which isn't applicable here. Option C is incorrect, as 'less interesting' isn't an appropriate adjective here. Option D is incorrect as the correct answer is A.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Complete the sentence with the most suitable option:
    Rani is ___________ Samira.
    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 sentence and options given are comparing the beauty of two people- Rani and Samira.

    Since the sentence is a comparative one, option C) the most beautiful which is superlative is incorrect. 

    Since the blank in the sentence is not preceded by 'as', option B) beautiful as cannot be used (normally it would have been 'as beautiful as') and so is also the incorrect answer.

    Option A) more beautiful than is the right way to compare and so option A) is the right answer.

    Since option A) is the correct answer, option D) none of the above is incorrect.
