  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Which of the option(s) means the same as the given sentence?
    I won't go unless Mary goes.
    Solution
    The given sentence means that the subject will only go under the condition that Mary also goes along with him/her. In the answer, the subject(I) and the object(Mary) remains the same. Thus, the rest of the phrase must mean 'will only go if the object goes'.
    Option A is incorrect. It means that the subject will go if Mary does not go whereas the sentence suggests that the subject won't go under this condition. Thus, it is incorrect.
    Option B is incorrect. It means that the subject won't go under the condition that Mary is going whereas the sentence suggests that the subject will go under this condition. Thus, it is incorrect.
    Option C is correct. It means that the subject will not go if Mary does not go with him/her. The sentence suggests that the subject will only go if Mary comes along. Thus, it can be said that if Mary does not go, the subject will not either. Therefore, option C has the same meaning as the required one.
    Option D is incorrect. It means that the subject will not go at the time Mary is going. It suggests that the subject may go at a different time or not at all. Since the required meaning should not suggest anything like that, it is incorrect.

  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Which of the option(s) means the same as the given sentence?
    He was just able to see that mountain through the fog.
    Solution
    The given sentence means that the subject could barely see the mountain through the fog. In the answer, the subject(He) and the object(mountain) remains the same. Thus, the rest of the phrase must mean 'barely able to see'.
    Option A is incorrect. In the given sentence, 'make off' means 'leave hurriedly'. Thus, it indicates that the subject left hurriedly with the mountain's shape. This does not make any sense and thus, it is incorrect.
    Option B is correct. In the given sentence, 'make out' means 'detect with difficulty'. This meaning is the closest to 'barely able to see' among the given options. Thus, it indicates the required meaning and is the correct answer.
    Option C is incorrect. Here 'make over' means 'use again in altered form'. Thus, it indicates that the subject was able to use the mountain's shape in an altered form. This does not make any sense and is incorrect.
    Option D is incorrect. Here 'make up' means 'form'. It indicates that the subject formed the mountain's shape which is senseless. Thus, it is incorrect.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Which of the option(s) means the same as the given sentence?
    I would like that job. I want to get it.
    Solution
    The given sentence indicates that the subject is going to ask for the job. In the answer, the subject(I) and the object(job) remains the same. Thus, the rest of the phrase must mean 'ask for'.
    Option A is incorrect. In the given sentence 'apply by' is not a real phrase in the English language. Thus, the sentence as a whole does not make any sense. 
    Option B is incorrect. Here 'apply with' indicates that the subject and the job are applying alongside each other. This does not make any sense and so, it cannot be the answer.
    Option C is correct. In the given sentence 'apply for' means 'ask for'. It indicates that the subject is going to ask for that job. Since it has the required meaning, it is the correct answer.
    Option D is incorrect. Here 'apply' to means 'be relevant or applicable to' and not 'ask for'. Thus, it does not have the required meaning and is not the correct answer.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Which of the option(s) means the same as the given sentence?
    This book is very difficult. I don't understand it.
    Solution
    The given sentence means that the subject does not understand a book(it). In the answer, the subject(I) and the object(book/it) remains the same. Thus, the rest of the phrase must mean 'does not understand'.
    Option A is incorrect. Here 'make it up' means 'form'. Thus, it indicates that the subject cannot form the book. Since that is not the correct meaning, it is incorrect.
    Option B is correct. 'make it out' means 'understand'. Thus, it indicates that the subject does not understand the book. It has the required meaning and is the correct answer.
    Option C is incorrect. Here 'make it off' is not a correct phrase. Simply 'make off' is correct but, it means 'run away'. Thus, it is neither grammatically correct nor does it have the required meaning. 
    Option D is incorrect. 'make it over' means 'change it by making new'. It indicates that the subject is making the book new. Since that is not the required meaning, it is incorrect.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Which of the option(s) means the same as the given sentence?
    He is a man of spirit.
    Solution
    The given sentence means that the subject has a lot of energy. In the answer, the subject(He) remains the same. Thus, the rest of the phrase must mean 'has a lot of energy'.
    Option A is correct. 'superman' does not mean that the subject has lot of energy. It assigns a persona to the subject rather than a quality and so, it is incorrect.
    Option B is correct. 'energetic' means 'having a lot of energy'. Thus, it has the required meaning and is the correct answer.
    Option C is incorrect. It means that the subject has a good sense of humor and not that he is full of energy. Thus, it does not have the required meaning and is incorrect.
    Option D is incorrect. It means that the subject is under the influence of alcohol. Thus, it does not have the required meaning and is incorrect.

  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Which of the option(s) means the same as the given sentence?
    He is well off.
    Solution
    The given sentence means that the subject is rich. In the answer, the subject(He) remains the same. Thus, the rest of the phrase must mean 'rich'.
    Option A is incorrect. It means that the subject is in good health. It does not have the required meaning and is incorrect.
    Option B is incorrect. It means the subject has gone somewhere and is not here. It does not have the required meaning and is incorrect.
    Option C is correct. 'wealthy' means 'rich'. Thus, it means that the subject is rich. It has the required meaning and is the correct answer.
    Option D is incorrect. It means that the subject is a very understanding and a generous person. Thus, it does not have the required meaning and is incorrect.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with a suitable option:
    He's taking _________ some chocolates.
    Solution
    The direct object in the given sentence is 'some chocolates'. We need to fill in the blank with an indirect object. Indirect objects answer the question 'to whom?' or 'for whom?'.
    Option A: 'Her' is an object pronoun. It functions as the recipient of the direct object 'chocolates'. Hence this option is correct.
    Option B: 'To her' is used when the indirect object is placed after the direct. (He's taking some chocolates for her') Also, 'to her' isn't relevant here as it does not answer the required question 'for whom?'.
    Hence option B is incorrect.
    Option C: 'Hers' is a possessive pronoun and expresses belongingness of something. 'This purse is hers.' The given sentence does not express possession, hence C is incorrect.
    Option D: 'She' is a subject pronoun. It is used when the pronoun performs an action. But here, it receives the action. Hence D is incorrect.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option.
    He drove so fast _______________________.
    Solution
    In the given sentence, 'drove' indicates that the tense of the sentence is simple past tense and so the answer must also be in the simple past tense. The sentence indicates that the subject drove very fast and the answer must support that fact.
    Option A is incorrect. The phrase indicates that the subject was caught by the police. 'When' indicates that the subject was driving fast at the time the police had already caught him. This does not make sense. If the police had already caught him the subject would not have been able to drive. Thus, it is incorrect.
    Option B is incorrect. The phrase indicates that the subject was driving car because his car had broken down. This does not make sense as the subject cannot drive if his car is not functioning. Also, it is in the past perfect tense and not the simple past tense.
    Option C is correct. The sentence indicates that because the subject was driving very fast, the passengers became frightened. This makes complete sense and also, it is in the simple past tense. Thus, it is correct.
    Option D is incorrect. The phrase, when put into the blank, makes some sense but, it is in the past perfect tense and not the simple past tense. Thus, using it will make the tense of the sentence inconsistent.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option.
    Don't touch that hot stove. __________________.
    Solution
    In the given sentence, the subject is being instructed not to touch the hot stove. The second sentence(the answer) provides a reason for this instruction. It can be concluded that the reason is that the stove is hot and touching it will hurt the subject. Thus, the answer must indicate this.
    Option A is incorrect. 'It'll get burned' indicates that if the subject touches the stove, the stove will get burned. This does not make any sense as the stove will do the burning and not the subject.
    Option B is incorrect. 'It'll be burned' indicates that if the subject touches the stove, the stove will get burned. This does not make any sense as the stove will do the burning and not the subject.
    Option C is incorrect. 'You'll burn it' indicates that by touching the stove, the subject will burn it. This makes no sense as the burning will be done by the stove and not the subject.
    Option D is correct. 'You'll get burned' indicates that on touching the stove the subject will get burned by the stove. It has the required meaning and also makes sense. Thus, it is correct.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option.
    Although Ali is quite short, _____________ reach the apples on the tree.
    Solution
    In the first clause, the word 'although' is a conjunction of contrast. This means that the second clause contradicts the first clause. Here, first clause says that Ali is short so to contradict it, the second clause must say that he is tall and can reach the apples.
    Option A is incorrect. 'he can also' does mean that Ali can reach the apples but, 'also' indicates that there is another subject in the sentence who can reach the apples. Since the sentence does not contain any such object, the presence of 'also' is not justified. Thus, it is incorrect.
    Option B is incorrect. 'he just can't' indicates that Ali simply cannot reach the apples. Here, the second clause agrees with the first and does not contradict it. Thus, it is incorrect.
    Option C is correct. 'he's tall enough to' indicates that in spite of being short, Ali can reach the apples. Thus, it contradicts the first clause and says that Ali can reach the apples. Thus, it is correct.
    Option D is incorrect. 'he's too short to' indicates that Ali is very short and cannot reach the apples. Thus, it agrees with the first clause and does not contradict it. Therefore, it is incorrect.
