1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the most suitable option:
The teacher _______ tribute to the freedom fighters during the Independence Day celebration at school.

A

B

C

Solution

When it comes to offering tribute, paying means to acknowledge the deserved honour. Tribute and praise are synonyms, hence Option A is incorrect. Pride is not related to tribute and one does not promise tribute., making B and D wrong. Hence Option C is correct.

Question 4
1 / -0

Choose the best option to complete the sentence.

The heat was unbearable, and he ____ longingly at the ice cream.

A
Peeked

B
Gazed

C
Glanced

D
Sulked

Solution

The correct answer here is Option B) - 'Gazed'. This is because this word satisfies the rules of proper grammatical convention the best and follows the tense of the sentence as well (in this case, primarily past). In the heat, ice cream is something that is very desirable; and the word we use in case of looking at things with desire ('longingly') is gaze. Peek and Glance are also looks but in a quick, fleeting way; and sulk means to be upset. All other options are incorrect.
Question 5
1 / -0

Directions For Questions

48. .....................

A
Do you have the time

B
I was wondering

C
If its not too much trouble

D
Could you be able to

Solution

Option B) is the best fit for blank #48, making it the correct answer. This is because it is the most tonally appropriate of all the options and follows the phrase after the blank i.e 'if you could' appropriately; it is a casual yet polite way of asking if the favour is feasible. All the other options are incorrect.
Question 6
1 / -0

The following sentence has not been edited. There is one error in the line.
Pick out the incorrect word and the correction that completes the sentence correctly.

You must be as true in our conduct and thoughts as a brick that supports a building is true.

A
Incorrect= our, Correct= we

B
Incorrect = You, Correct = we

C
Incorrect= thoughts, Correct= thought

D
Incorrect= is, Correct= are

Solution

The sentence has words like 'our', 'thoughts' which indicate that we are talking about many people or in plural. The first word of the sentence 'you' is incorrect as the remaining part of the sentence is in plural. So, the correct answer is B) Incorrect=you, Correct= we.
Question 7
1 / -0

Directions For Questions

As with all temples, here too there was __(2)__ huge statue of God which was covered with precious jewels and gold. __(3)__ dark night, a burglar scaled the temple walls and ran off with all the jewels.

Question 8
1 / -0

In the sentence given below, one word has been omitted. Choose the option that has the missing word along with the words that come before and after it:

A large number spiders inhabit our environment.

A
Inhabit around our

B
Inhabit in our

C
Number of spiders

D
Number in spiders

Solution

In the given line, the word omitted should come after the word 'number'.
So, options A) and B) are incorrect. The part of the sentence 'inhabit our environment' is correct.
Between the options C) and D), 'number of spiders' is correct while 'number in spiders' is incorrect. When we talk about number, we use the preposition 'of' and not 'in'. So, the correct answer is C) number of spiders.
Question 9
1 / -0

The following sentence has not been edited. There is one error in the line. Pick the option that has the incorrect word and the correction against it.

A

B
Incorrect= if, Correct= because

C
Incorrect=if, Correct= though

D
Incorrect= if, Correct= since

Solution

It is evident from the given options that the word 'if' is incorrect in the sentence. The correction words in options B), C) and D) are connecting words which are used to provide the reason for something.
So, the most appropriate answer is A) incorrect= if, correct= but.
Question 10

B

Species are the particular breeds to which living things belong. We always use the term 'of' after species or breed to denote that an organism is part of that group. So, the answer is option A) Species of spiders.
'For' is used to show purpose or intention. 'About' means 'on the subject of.' 'In' is used to show that something is contained in or enclosed by something.
So, options B, C and D are incorrect.
