Weekly Quiz Competition
  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Identify the adverb in the following sentence.
    I have never been to Maldives. I would like to go over there.
    Solution
    'Adverb' is a word which modifies the meaning of a verb, adjective or another adverb. In the first sentence, the verb is "have been'.  The word 'never' modifies the meaning of the verb, 'have been'. Hence, it is an adverb. As it makes the verb negative, it is called an adverb of negation. Hence, option B is correct.  
    Option A: The word, 'would' is a modal or a helping verb, which indicates the possibility of 'going there'. 
    Option C: The word, 'have' is an auxiliary or helping verb, which is a part of the verb, 'have been'. 
    Option D: 'Maldives' is a proper noun and not an adverb. 
    As  'would', 'have' and 'Maldives' are not adverbs, options A, C and D are incorrect.
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Replace the underlined adverb in the following sentence with its antonym.
    The tainted politician was coldly received.
    Solution
    The adverb, 'coldly' means 'in an unfriendly way and without emotion'. The adverb, 'warmly' means 'in a way that protects someone to keep out the cold'. It also means 'to make one feel comfortable'. Hence, option D is the correct answer.

    The adverb, 'duly' means 'in a way which might be expected or predicted'. It also means 'according to procedure or rules'. The adverb, 'immediately' means 'at once' or 'instantly'. The adverb, 'scornfully' is used to describe doing something without respect. It is also used to describe doing something showing displeasure.
    As the meaning of the above three words is quite different from that of 'foolishly', options A, B and C are incorrect.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Identify the adverb in the following sentence.
    Aryan drove fast and he lost his driving licence.
    Solution
    An adverb is a word that modifies/describes the meaning of a verb, adjective or another adverb. The two verbs used in the given sentence are: 'drove' and 'lost'. The verb 'drove' is being described/modified by the word 'fast'. Hence, it is an adverb. As this word describes how or in 'what manner' Aryan drove, it is called an adverb of manner. Hence, option C is correct.
    Option A is incorrect as it is a verb in simple past tense and not an adverb.
    Option B is incorrect as it is a proper noun and not an adverb.
    Option D is incorrect as it is a common noun and not an adverb.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Choose the option that contains an adverb:
    Solution
    Option A - 'Hurry' is used as a noun as well as a verb. It means to be quick or haste. For example, I should hurry up. Here, 'hurry' is used as a verb. It can also be used as a noun - In my hurry to reach the school, I forgot my water bottle. Here, 'hurry' is used as a noun. Hence, option A is incorrect.
    Option C - 'Hurtful' is an adjective used for a person who causes to distress to someone's feelings. Hence, option C is incorrect.
    Option D - 'Hurried' is an adjective, which means 'rushed'. Hence, option D is incorrect.
    Option B - 'Hurriedly' is an adverb of manner which means to do something in a hurry. Hence, option B is the correct answer.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Replace the underlined adverb in the following sentence with its antonym.
    How can I put up with a person who always speaks foolishly?
    Solution
    The adverb, 'foolishly' means 'in an unwise manner' or 'stupidly'. The opposite of the same is 'wisely'. Hence, option C is the correct answer.
    The adverb, 'quickly' means 'at a fast speed'. The adverb, 'warmly' means 'in a way that protects one with clothes or covers, which keep out the cold'. It also means 'in a manner which makes one feel comfortable'. The adverb, 'directly' means 'with nothing or no one in between'. It also means 'without stopping'.
    As the meaning of the above three words is quite different from that of 'foolishly', options A, B and D are incorrect.

The verb 'speaks' is being modified by the words, 'quite well'. Hence, it is an adverb. As this word describes how or in 'what manner' the subject 'He' speaks English, it is called an adverb of manner. Hence, option C is correct.
    Option A is incorrect as it is a pronoun and not an adverb.
    Option B is incorrect as it is a common noun and not an adverb.
