  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:
    It was nice __________ to remember my mother's birthday.
    Solution
    Option D: 'Of you' forms a phrase 'nice of you'. It means that what the person has done is appreciated or welcomed. This phrase completes the sentence in meaning, the speaker is appreciating that the person 'you' remembered the mother's birthday. Hence option D is correct.
    Options A, B and C: The options 'don't forget', 'a present' and 'for' do not complete the sentence in meaning. Hence these options are incorrect.
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option.
    I _______________ him at 10:00 a.m. tomorrow.
    Solution
    Let’s examine the sentence: “I _______________ him at 10:00 a.m. tomorrow.” The use of “I” demands the use of helping verb “am.” This rules out Option C as it does not have ‘am.’ All the options use ‘suppose,’ however when used with ‘am,’ it would be used in its third form ‘supposed.’ This rules out Option D as it does not have ‘supposed.’ Option B cannot be used as ‘to seeing’ is incorrect English. Hence, Option A is the correct answer.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    Who ____ on Sundays?
    Solution
    Let’s examine the sentence: “Who ____ on Sundays?” As the sentence is a question, so ‘Who’ would be followed by a helping verb. This rules out Options B and D. Now the basic structure of a question is auxiliary verb + subject + main verb. Option C conforms to this structure and so this is the answer.
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:
    This is ______________________.
    Solution
    Option C: This is the most suitable option, because the noun 'question' does not require an article here.
    We do not use an article when the form is noun + number. Since the form in the given sentence is 'question (noun) + thirty (number), this option is correct.
    Option A: This option is incorrect for the same reason mentioned above, as the article 'the' isn't used when the form is 'noun + number'.
    Option B: The word 'thirteenth' is an adjective of number. We should use it before the noun 'question': the thirteenth question, and not after. Hence B is incorrect.
    Option D: The word 'thirteen' is an adjective of number. It modifies the noun 'question' as a plural noun. Since it's plural, the correct form should be 'questions'. Also, the verb in the given sentence is singular 'is'. (The verb must agree with the noun in terms of number.) Hence this option is incorrect.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    The more we looked at the abstract painting, ___________.
    Solution
    Since the adjective in the first part of the sentence being preceded by the definite article 'the', the adjective in the second part of the sentence will also be preceded by the same article, indicating that that the same thing is being talked about, focusing on the quality defined by  the adjective. All options except option C lack the "the". Therefore, options A,B and D are all incorrect. 
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option.
    He sometimes wishes he _________ a computer.
    Solution
    The sentence indicates that the subject is wishing that he did or didn't carry out an action that relates to a computer. Since this action is already a part of subject's past, it is an action that was carried out in the past. Thus, the answer must be in the past tense.
    Option A is incorrect. 'doesn't touch' is in the simple present tense and not past tense. Thus, it does not indicate that the action was carried out in the past. Therefore, it is incorrect.
    Option B is incorrect. 'will not touch' is in the simple future tense and not past tense. Thus, it does not indicate that the action was carried out in the past. Therefore, it is incorrect.
    Option C is correct. 'had never touched' is in the past perfect tense. Thus, it indicates that the action was carried out in the past and is complete with respect to the past. Thus, it has the correct tense and is the correct answer.
    Option D is incorrect. 'has never touched' is in the present perfect tense and not past tense. Thus, it does not indicate that the action was carried out in the past. Therefore, it is incorrect.
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    Do you know where ____ ?
    Solution
    Let’s examine the sentence: “Do you know where ____ ?” The sentence is in the form of a question and it has two clauses. The first clause is in the interrogative form with question starting with ‘do.’ Do or does questions have the following structure: Do/Does + Subject + Base Verb. The first clause matches this structure with Do + you (as subject) + know (as base verb). The second clause is a statement. Hence, it will become with subject (noun or pronoun) and not a verb. As only Option B meets this condition, it is the correct answer.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    George's father told him ________.
    Solution
    The given sentence is in the indirect mode of narration, where the direction of not going out has been transformed into the indirect form, not directly addressing the subject. Option C is the most appropriate answer because it consists of the necessary format in the correct syntax. Option B lacks the preposition to hold together the verb and the adverb. Options A and D contain variations of the auxiliary verb do, which directly address the subject, thus not fitting the syntax of indirect speech. Hence, Options A,B and D are all incorrect.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    I don't know __________.
    Solution
    Option B seems to be the most appropriate answer because it follows the correct syntax of indirect speech, the question word followed by the noun and then the verb in the present tense to match with that in the first part of the sentence. Moreover, the pronoun it owes reference to the noun and hence, does not need any explanation. Option C is incorrect because it follows incorrect syntax. Options A and D follow the syntax of an interrogative sentence, and also, there is no implication of what "it" is here. Therefore, Options A,C and D are all incorrect.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
    John has written a novel and ____ .
    Solution
    Let’s examine the sentence: “John has written a novel and ____ .” When we see the options, we understand that the blank needs a clause reiterating the fact given in the first clause of the sentence but for John’s sister. Hence, the adverb ‘so’ would be used to express the similarity of fact in both the clauses. The adverb ‘so’ means ‘to the same extent’ when used in comparisons. Now, the tense would also be the same and to emphasize the fact stated in the first clause, same helping verb as used in the first clause would be taken here after ‘so.’ As Option C fulfills these conditions, it is the correct answer. Other options cannot be used as they would make the sentence meaningless.
