Weekly Quiz Competition

Question 1
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the best suitable option:

I'm very busy. I have my fingers in ____ many pies.

A
or

B
of

C
too

D
such

Solution

The phrase 'have one's fingers in too many pies' means to be involved in too many things. Thus, Option C is correct. The person is very busy because of a lot of commitments. The other options cancel out.
Question 2
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the best possible option:

I know only ________ well the kind of problem you are facing in this company.

A
too

B
very

C
much

D
more

Solution

The phrase 'only too well' means to know something very well, usually from an unpleasant experience. The other words do not construct the phrase correctly. So, Option A is correct and the others cancel out.
Question 3
1 / -0

In the following question, four alternatives are given for the idiom/phrase underlined. You are required to choose the correct meaning of the Idiom/phrase given.

By hook or by crook

A
Anyhow

B
Immediately

C
Subsequently

D
Eventually

Solution

By hook or by crook means by fair or foul means, that is, anyhow. Hence, Option A is correct. For example, we need to court that big investor by hook or by crook. The rest of the options do not express this meaning, hence incorrect.
Question 4
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
Lost time is _______.

A
known by its tree

B
never found again

C
not so black as he painted

D
never to late to learn

E
makes the cup run

Solution

Option B is the correct answer because the idiom 'lost time is never found again' means that the time that is wasted will never come back to us.
Options A, C, D and E are incorrect because none of these would complete the idiom correctly.
Question 5
1 / -0

Complete the following dialogues.
- Have you got any books by O. Wilde?
- Yes. we have. _________.

A
Please

B
Take it

C

D

E

Solution

We have, Here are they.
It means, "yes we have got the books from O. Wilde and it is kept here."
Question 6
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the best possible option:

The police arrived not a minute _____ soon, and the would-be burglar was apprehended before anything could be stolen.

A
too

B
so

C
or

D
such

Solution

The phrase 'not a minute too soon' means at the best possible moment, before it is too late. The police caught the thief before any damage could be done. Thus, Option A is correct and the other options cancel out.
Question 7
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the best possible option:

Since the accountant knew ______ much about their illegal dealings, they tried to have him fired.

A
too

B
very

C
much

D
or

Solution

We often confuse the two adverbs- 'very' and 'too'. Both these words sit before adjectives or adverbs and consequently modify them. However, “very” does not have a negative meaning, while “too” does. So, if I say the test was 'very' difficult, it can be assumed that the test was challenging, but I still managed to do it. In contrast, if I say, the test was 'too' difficult, it feels that I'm worried that I may fail.
The phrase 'know too much' means to be in possession of too much important or confidential information. In this case the accountant is in possession of some very confidential information. 'Very' does not justify this context. Thus, Option A is correct and Option B is not. The other options cancel out because they are irrelevant to the context.
Question 8
1 / -0

Which is the BEST way to revise the sentence labeled (9)?

A
A footrace may be a well - known reason enough to get a runner to be a part of the tradition or running in the peachtree

B
A footrace in the South on the 4th , down a famous steets , may be a reason to get a runner to be a part of the tradition of alone

C
A footrace alone may be enough of a reason for a runner to want run down onew of the most well known streets on the 4th of July in the south

D
A footrace down onew of Atlasnts's most famous streets on the fourth of july might be enough to make a runner want be become part of the Peachtree tradition

Solution

Answer
D
Explanation:
A seems to say that a footrace is a well know reason
B has an awkward arrangement; for example the placement of "alone" after "tradition" makes it difficult to see what "alone" is trying to modify.
C also seems to indicate that the "footrace alone" (without qualifications of time or place) is enough of a reason to run.
Question 9
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the best possible option:

I guess I pushed him _____ far, because he began shouting at me.

A
very

B
much

C
too

D
of

Solution

We often confuse the two adverbs- 'very' and 'too'. Both these words sit before adjectives or adverbs and consequently modify them. However, “very” does not have a negative meaning, while “too” does. Pushing someone very far and that person starts shouting is something illogical and doesn't make proper sense. Pushing someone 'too' far means to challenge someone's patience which ultimately gives way when things cross a certain limit. Hence, Option C is correct and Option A is not. The other options don't make any sense, so they cancel out.
Question 10
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the best possible option:

The added security features on the new phone proved to be _____ much of a good thing, making it incredibly difficult for even the owner to access the device.

A
such

B
too

C
much

D
if

Solution

The phrase 'too much of a good thing' means an excessive, harmful amount of something that could have otherwise been enjoyable or beneficial. In this case, the features of the phone proved to be too critical. So, option B is correct and the others cancel out.
