Weekly Quiz Competition
  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Select a yes/no question that corresponds to the following response:

    No, I do not. 
    Solution
    'Yes/No' questions are those questions which start from helping verbs like was, are, were, is, etc. 
    In such a case, the order is Verb + Subject + Object. In the given sentence, 'Do' is the verb, 'you' is the subject and 'French' is the object. Since the answer has 'do' which is used for first pronoun thus question should start from 'do'.
    Thus, option A is the correct answer. 
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Transform the following from direct to indirect speech:

    The teacher told the girl, "I want you to do well in your exams."
    Solution
    The given sentence is a statement.
    According to the rules of narration and reporting, if the reporting verb is in the past tense, the tense of the reported verb is changed into its corresponding past form. The reporting verb in the given sentence, 'told', is in the past form. Therefore, the reported verb, 'want' will change into 'wanted'. The first person pronoun 'I' will change into the person of the speaker.
    Thus, the complete sentence must be,
    The teacher told the girl that the teacher wanted the girl to do well in her exams.
    Thus option A is the correct answer.
    Options B,C,D are incorrect as they do not follow the rules of Narration and Reporting.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Transform the following from direct to indirect speech:

    Eliza said to James, "I will go to school tomorrow."
    Solution
    Indirect Speech is used to report something in our own words. 
    To change future tense in indirect speech, remove inverted commas and use 'that' as a conjunction. 
    Both shall and will normally become would. 'Tomorrow' is changed to 'the next day'. 
    Thus, option B is the correct answer according to the rules. 
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Transform the following from direct to indirect speech:

    Joe said to Mary, "Dinner was ready at eight o'clock."
    Solution
    The given sentence is in simple past tense as it mentions an action that was already completed at a time reference. 
    If reporting verb in direct speech is in the past tense, then the tense of the verbs in the indirect speech must be generally changed to past perfect.
    Option A "dinner was ready" does not change the tense and just reports the sentence in simple past tense. 
    Option B "is ready" is simple present tense and simple past in direct speech does not take a simple present verb form in indirect speech.
    Option C "had been ready" uses the verb form (had been) in the past perfect tense. This is correct as this satisfies the rule of conversion for simple past sentences.
    Option D "dinner will be ready" changes the verb tense to future continuous. Thus, this is incorrect. 
    Therefore, option A is the correct answer.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Select a yes/no question that corresponds to the following response:

    Yes, she handed in her assignment yesterday. 
    Solution
    'Yes/No' questions are those questions which start from helping verbs like was, are, were, is, etc. 
    In such a case, the order is Verb + Subject + Object. In the given sentence, 'Did' is the verb, 'she' is the subject and 
    'assignment' is the object. 
    Thus, option C is the correct answer. 
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Frame 'wh' question for the given sentence:
    Sandra loves the new cafe.
    Solution
    Since the emphasis is on person in direct, "who" should be used. Hence, Option C is correct. The rest of the options do not adhere to the goal, hence incorrect. 
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Transform the following from direct to indirect speech:

    Harry said, "I wanted to play outside."
    Solution

    Indirect Speech is used to report something in our own words.
    The given sentence is an example of simple past tense which changes to past perfect tense in indirect speech. 'Had wanted' is the past perfect tense. 
    Thus, option C is the correct answer according to the rules. 
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Frame a 'wh' question for the given sentence:
    Ajay just left from work.
    Solution
    Since the emphasis is on time, "when" should be used. Hence, Option A is correct. The rest of the options do not adhere to the goal, hence incorrect. 
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Frame a question such that the underlined part of the sentence given is the answer:
    The old man had entrusted all his wealth to his step-daughter. 
    Solution
    Wh-questions are used to ask certain types of questions. What, when, why, whom, who, whose, where and how are the wh-questions. 
    Whom is used to refer to the object of the verb or preposition. 
    'Step-daughter' is the object in the sentence to whom the old man had entrusted all his wealth.
    Thus, option A is the correct answer. Rest of the options are not grammatically correct. 
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Frame a question such that the underlined part of the sentence given is the answer:
    We stopped at a small vendor's stall near the mountains for breakfast. 
    Solution
    Wh-questions are used to ask certain types of questions. What, when, why, whom, who, whose, where and how are the wh-questions. 
    Where is used to ask in or at what place or position. 
    The highlighted part of the sentence shows the place 'vendor's stall'. 
    Thus, option A is the correct answer. Rest of the options are incorrect ones.
