Weekly Quiz Competition
  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Identify the main idea/point in the passage:

    Anjali didn't want to go to office. She was thinking of making an excuse to her manager but she wasn't able to find any because she had already made four in the last month to skip office. So, she decided that she would just switch her cell phone off and sleep.
    Solution
    The primary fact in the passage is about Anjali's unwillingness to go to office. Rest are all ancillary information related to the main topic which elucidate as to what was going through Anjali's mind when she thought of not going to office. Hence, Option C is correct and the others are not.
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Choose the best option to complete the given sentence:
    Rashmi: We are planning a trip to Tuscany this semester.
    Tina: Oh, really! Tuscany seems to be a hot destination suddenly.
    Tina means that __________.
    Solution
    The word 'hot' here describes the place, Tuscany, as a destination. In the context of the sentence, 'hot' means 'currently popular', 'in demand'. It does not literally mean hot: very high in temperature.
    Option D gives the correct interpretation of the quoted speech, that Tuscany has suddenly become a popular destination. Hence D is the most suitable option.
    Option A: This does not state the accurate meaning. It is not the main topic of discussion these days. But, Tuscany is a destination in demand these days. The meanings are different. Hence A is incorrect.
    Options B and C give the literal meaning of hot, in terms of temperature. But Tina does not refer to the weather, but the nature of the destination, which is hot (popular, cool).
    Hence B and C are incorrect.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Choose the best option to complete the given conversation:
    Jai: I don't know how to complete the project on time.
    Ritu: Don't worry. I am sure you will _______.
    Solution
    The person in the conversation, Jai, expresses concern because he does not know how to complete his project on time.
    In an attempt to console him, Rita reassures him, telling him not to worry.
    Option C: This line completes the conversation in meaning, 'think of something' refers to how Jai will think of something in order to complete his project.
    Hence option C is correct.
    The rest of the options, 'kill the time', 'need some help' and 'find it out' are vague and do not complete the sentence in meaning. Also, they are not words of reassurance.
    Hence options A, B and D are incorrect.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blanks with the most appropriate word:

    A narrative answers the question ___________
    Solution
    A narrative is a spoken or written account of connected events. It gives us a vivid description of the formation and execution of the points that join events together. Rest of the information we need to decipher from the narrative. So, Option B is correct. The other options are incorrect as the readers or the audience tend to find the answers from the narrative themselves.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0

    ...view full instructions

    Choose the correct option for [4].
    Solution
    The given 'MESSAGE' is a report of the conversation between Mr. Subbu and Anil.
    Option C: As it's mentioned in the line "our Drama Troupe...will reach New Delhi Railway Station by the Rajdhani Express", blank 4 is completed with "Rajdhani Express". Hence C is correct.
    Option A: 'Chennai Express' is not mentioned in the conversation. Chennai is the city from where 'Subbu' has called. But, it's not the name of the train in which the Drama Troupe will arrive. Hence A is incorrect.
    Option B: Similarly, 'Shatabdi Express' is not mentioned in the conversation. Hence option B is incorrect.
    Option D is incorrect because the answer lies in C.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    What is the plot of a story?
    Solution
    Plot of a story is the sequence of events in which the story is framed. The People are the Characters. Headline is the Title. The framework of a story is called its Structure. Hence, option A is correct.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Which of the following is the most accurate statement with regard to giftedness ?
    Solution
    Answer 
    b. It may include motor or cognitive abilities.
    Explanation:
    I don't like the word "giftedness" in any application to people's abilities. We ALL have particular and unique abilities that can be utilized as well as we can. Exceptional abilities  (or deficiencies) can occur in motor skills as well as cognitive ones.
    That's one problem with a term like "gifted"! Who gave the gift (and how is that different from or any better than the miraculous "gift of life" we all have)? Some usage inverts the language - when is "gifted" "special" - or simply ignores common language.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Which item does not belong in the following checklist for writing rough drafts?
    Solution
    Option 'D' is the most probable answer


  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    She is really looking forward ____ her new job next week.
    Solution
    Answer:
    Option 'D' is the right answer.

    She is really looking forward to starting her new job next week.

    Explanation:

    ‘Look forward to’ is a phrasal verb which means ‘to think with pleasure about something that is going to happen because you expect to enjoy it. 

     Phrasal verb is a verb combined with an adverb or a preposition, or sometimes both, to give a new meaning, for example go in for, win over and see to.

    In this sentence ‘to starting’ has been used because of the structure ‘look forward to + doing something’ structure. According to this structure, look forward to is followed by v1+ing verb. For example, We are really looking forward to visiting you again next month.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with a suitable option. 
    The conclusion in a report _______________.
    Solution
    The correct answer is Option A.
    The conclusion plays an important role in any kind of writing. A well-written conclusion enhances the effectiveness of the writing.
    As wrongly perceived, it is not the last line of the writing. Hence option B becomes the wrong answer.
    Since option B is incorrect Option C too becomes incorrect- since it says both A and B.
    The function of a conclusion in a report is defined as one that summarizes and highlights the main ideas of the reader and what the reader should be taking from the report. Thus Option A is the correct answer. (Therefore Option D - none of the above is incorrect.)
