  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Choose an appropriate question in relation to the statement given below:
    Ask about glass -
    (how/make?) ________________
    Solution
    Option B: 'How is glass made' asks a general question about glass and how it's made. 'Is made' is in simple present tense in passive voice. It states a general truth. The sentence is in passive voice because it's about the subject 'glass' that experiences the action 'to be made'.
    Hence option B is correct.
    Option A: 'How glass is' is not in the correct order. An interrogative sentence in passive voice is of this word order:
    'Question word (how) + auxiliary verb (is) + subject (glass) + main verb (made)'
    Hence option A is wrong.
    Option C: 'Has been made' is in the present perfect tense and states an action completed in the present. But the question asks about something general and not a particular event.
    Option D: 'Does...made' is in simple present tense in the active voice. But, the sentence is in passive voice. Also, 'made' is a past tense word whereas 'does' refers to the present. Both don't go together to refer to simple present tense.
    Hence options C and D are wrong.
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Frame interrogative sentence from the given assertive sentence:
    You won't be in London next week.
    Solution
    When we change an assertive sentence to an interrogative, we change its form (from affirmative to negative or from negative to affirmative).
    We change a positive sentence to a negative sentence.
    In the same way, we change a negative sentence to a positive interrogative.
    The given sentence is in negative: 'won't be', which is a contraction of 'will not be'. Hence its question form is in the positive: 'will... be'.
    Option D: This interrogative is in the affirmative, 'Will you be in London...?'
    Hence option D is correct.
    Option A: This question is in the negative. As explained, while changing the assertive sentence to interrogative, we must change it from negative to positive.
    Option B: The tense of the verb 'will be' has changed to present perfect 'Haven't you'. Also, it's the negative form, and this verb contradicts with the time when the action will take place: next week.
    Option C: Similarly, 'hadn't you' refers to the past perfect tense, whereas the sentence is in the future. (Also, it does not go with the present verb 'be': hadn't you be.)
    Hence options A, B and C are incorrect.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Frame a Wh question that corresponds to the given answer:
    Question: ____________________________
    Answer: I have been married for twelve years.
    Solution
    The reply here gives the number of years as the answer. Time (Since how long) is questioned using the words 'How long'. The syntax for an interrogative sentence is: Wh word + helping verb + subject + main verb ......? The tense of the question and answer should be the same. Hence, the tense of the question is the present perfect tense. Therefore, the correct option is: How long have you been married?
  • Question 4
    1 / -0
    Categorise the italicized sentence according to the given instruction: 
    Choose S for statements, Q for questions, C for commands and E for exclamations:

    How merry the sparkling and dancing waves look in the morning!
    Solution
    A statement is a sentence that simply declares or states a fact. It ends with a full stop (.)
    A question intends to ask something, and ends with a question mark (?).
    A command intends to order someone to do something. It ends with a full stop (.)
    An exclamatory sentence expresses a sudden or strong emotion. It ends with the exclamation mark (!).
    The given sentence means that the sparkling and dancing waves look very merry in the morning.
    This sentence ends with an exclamation mark (!). Hence it's exclamatory. This means that it expresses a strong emotion of joy. So, option D is correct.
    It does not state a fact, or ask a question. It does not command anything as well. Hence options A, B and C are incorrect.
  • Question 5
    1 / -0
    Choose the word that can be substituted for the given word or phrase:
    One who believes in God.
    Solution
    Option A is incorrect. 'Atheist' means 'a person who does not believe in god'. Thus, it is incorrect.
    Option B is correct. 'Theist' means 'a person who believes in God'. Thus, it can be substituted for the given phrase. Therefore, it is the correct answer.
    Option C is incorrect. 'Moral' means 'honourable'. Thus, it does not have the required meaning.
    Option D is incorrect. 'Immoral' means 'evil' or 'wicked'. Thus, it is incorrect.


  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    Read the sentence and complete using the appropriate option:
    Despite his best efforts to conceal his anger ________
    Solution
    We can understand from the use of the conjunction despite that something opposite to the situation is happening. Option E is the only one which justifies this, and the situation being talked about in the first part of the sentence. Thus, Option E is the most suitable option. 
  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Choose the exact meaning of the idiom/phrase. 

    Out and out .
    Solution
    The given phrase means 'complete' or 'through and through'.
    Option D is correct. Overall means 'complete'. Thus, it has the required meaning and so, it is the correct answer.
    Options A, B and C are incorrect. They do not have the required meaning.
    Option A, merely, means 'simply'.
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Choose the exact meaning of the idiom/phrase. 

    At bottom 
    Solution
    The given phrase means 'fundamentally' or 'basically'.
    Option D is correct. The meaning of the phrase is same as the given option. Thus, it is correct
    Options A, B and C are incorrect. They do not have the required meaning.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Choose the exact meaning of the idiom/phrase:
    To get at 
    Solution
    The given phrase means 'To reach'.
    Option A is correct. It is the same as the meaning of the phrase. Thus, it is the correct answer.
    Options B, C and D are incorrect. They do not have the required meaning.
    In option B, 'advance' means 'move forward'.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Choose the exact meaning of the idiom/phrase:
    To see red.
    Solution
    The given phrase means 'to be furious'.
    Option B is correct. 'Very angry' means 'furious'. Thus, it has the required meaning. Hence, 'to be very angry' is the correct answer.
    Options A, C and D are incorrect. They do not have the required meaning.
    In option D, victimise means 'make a victim of'.
