A
ran up to

B
ran by

C
ran into

D

Question 2
1 / -0

Select the word that can be substituted for the given phrase.
Items to be considered at a meeting

A
wardrobe

B
catalogue

C
gist

D
agenda

Solution

Option D is the correct answer because “agenda” means a list of items to be discussed at a formal meeting, hence it is the most suitable substitute for the given statement.
Option A is incorrect because “wardrobe” means a collection of clothes or a large cupboard that has all the clothes stored, hence it is not related to the given statement .
Option B is incorrect because “catalogue” means a complete list of items, typically one in alphabetical or other systematic order, so an agenda involves the use of a catalogue often.
Option C is incorrect because “gist” means the substance or general meaning of a speech or text,hence it is incorrect.
Question 3
1 / -0

Choose the correct meaning of the italicized phrase from the options given below:

It seems they have had a fall out.

A
They had a nasty fall

B
Fell out of the bus

C
They stopped being friends

D
They jumped off from the parapet

Solution

'To have a fall out with someone' means to fight or argue with someone. So option C) They stopped being friends is the correct answer.
Question 4
1 / -0

Select the meaning of the given phrase / idiom.

Keep up

A
maintain

B
leave behind

C
confirm

D
accept

Solution

The phrasal verb "keep up" means to move or progress at the same rate as someone or something else. For example: "They had to pause quite often to allow him to keep up". Thus A is the best answer in this context.
Question 5
1 / -0

CHOOSE THE MOST APPROPRIATE PHRASE TO REPLACE THE UNDERLINED PHRASE IN THE KIND OF WRITING SPECIFIED.

I think the best place to go for a vacation in December is Kerala. (A letter to your friend)

A
Im absolutely certain that

B
I personally believe....

C
I am of the opinion that....

D
If you ask me....

Solution

Since the question specifically asks us to replace the underlined phrase, i.e 'I think', the replacement must be very close in meaning and sense to it. Option D) is the closest in terms of meaning as it expresses the personal opinion/preference/judgement reflected in the original phrase, while politely signifying that this is a personal preference.
Question 6
1 / -0

Fill in the blank in the following sentence by choosing one of the 4 options given below the sentence.

I don't think I heard you correctly: "Who _________ wanted to meet me this morning ?"

A
did you say

B
you did say

C
you said that

D
said you that

Solution

The answer here is Option A) - 'did you say' because this is the correct order that makes grammatical sense. Further, since this is an example of reported speech, the original tense is retained as well, which is why it will be 'say' instead of said, ruling out those options.
Question 7
1 / -0

CHOOSE THE MOST APPROPRIATE PHRASE TO REPLACE THE UNDERLINED PHRASE IN THE KIND OF WRITING SPECIFIED.

I am unhappy with the service I received at your hotel recently. (An email to the manager of a hotel)

A
I am annoyed

B
I am disgraced

C
I am dissatisfied

D
I am grossed out

Solution

Since the question specifically asks us to replace the underlined phrase, i.e 'I am unhappy', the replacement must be very close in meaning and sense to it. Option C) is the closest in terms of meaning as it expresses the original sentiment of displeasure and unhappiness reflected in the original phrase. Grossed out and disgraced are different emotions entirely.
Question 8
1 / -0

Complete the following sentence with the right word or phrase. Choose from (A), (B), (C) or (D).

Many people seem unaware that the 'silence in the library' rule applies to them as __________ to anyone else.

much as

C

D
lot of

Directions For Questions

Fill in the blank numbered (3):

A
hopeful

B
desiring

C
desirous

D
in the hope

Solution

It is clear that the author wants the person he is writing to, to take some action to improve the tourism. So, the most appropriate answer is D) In the hope. Moreover, the word 'may' in the sentence suggests that a word expressing 'expectance' is required. In this light, 'desiring' would be too strong to use with a word like 'may'. Hopeful is an adjective, so is incorrect in the blank.
