    Choose the exact meaning of the idiom/phrase.

    Child's play
    Solution
    The given phrase means 'A task which is easily accomplished'.
    Option A is correct. As we can see, the option has the same meaning as the required one and thus, it is the correct answer.
    Options B, C and D are incorrect. They do not have the required meaning.
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Choose the word or phrase that best completes the sentence.
    Can you understand __________ ? 
    Solution
    Following the syntax of yes/ no interrogative sentences, option C is incorrect order, the question word followed by the pronoun and then the verb. Options B and D are incorrect for their incorrect syntax and missing words. Option A lacks the interrogative conjunction, thus being unable to join the two parts of the sentence together. Thus, Option C is the most appropriate answer. 
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    Use the words in brackets to complete the sentence. Use the structure 'have something done':
    ___________ (you / have) a newspaper delivered to your house or _______ (you / go)  to the shop to buy one?
    Solution
    To "have something done", the question must use the auxiliary verb "do" in the present tense. Hence, option A is correct. Option B uses the past tense, and Option C uses the third person singular number form of "do. Option D uses an altogether different verb, "will". Hence, these are incorrect.

    Solution
    Option C is correct, the meaning of Contiguous is sharing a common border or touching so according to the sentence Nations that share a border are, by definition, contiguous.
    Other options are not correct due to meanings are different according to the suitability of the sentence.
  • Question 6
    1 / -0
    From the options given below, select the most appropriate answer to fill in the blank in the given sentence.
    _________ were known to me. [Intermediate]
    Solution
    A phrase that acts like a noun in the sentence is called a Noun Phrase. It contains nouns and other associated words which modify the noun.
    When speaking specifically, we use "most" with a prepositional phrase that limits the number to a specific group. Note the prepositional phrase defines the group by including a modifier- an adjective, another prepositional phrase or clause.
    Option C contains the required structure to act like a Noun Phrase and also the word 'guests' here is definite therefore " the" is placed before the word. Hence option C is the correct answer.
    Whereas, option A,B and D are not structurally applicable.

  • Question 7
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with the appropriate option:

    She was ______ to take care of the children in my absence.
    Solution
    Enough is used to signify something that is just what you need and nothing more. Options C and D are incorrect answers. 'Too' is used to define also or in addition. 
    The given sentence explains that she possesses sufficient kindness to take of the children thus, option B is the correct answer. 
  • Question 8
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with suitable option:
    Laugh and the world will _______ you.
    Solution
    The given statement is an incomplete proverb. Thus, the correct answer must make it into the correct proverb.
    Option A is correct. 'Laugh and the world will laugh with you' is a correct proverb. It means 'People prefer cheerfulness in others. A cheerful person will always have company'. Thus, it is the correct answer.
    Options B, C and D are incorrect. They do not make the statement into a correct proverb.
  • Question 9
    1 / -0
    Fill in the blank with a suitable prepositional phrase:
    I gave the children cupcakes ________ pancakes for breakfast today.
    Solution
    Prepositional phrases are a group of words containing preposition which lacks either a verb or a subject. Such phrases always have two basic parts: object and preposition. Prepositions are mostly followed by objects. 
    Using option A will justify all the above rules. 'Instead of' is the preposition and 'pancakes' is the object. Hence, 'instead of pancakes' becomes the prepositional phrase. 
    Options B and C are not making prepositional phrases with 'pancakes' 
    Thus, option A is the correct answer.
  • Question 10
    1 / -0
    Identify and use prepositional phrases:
    The rabbits hopped ______.
    Solution
    Prepositional phrases are a group of words containing preposition which lacks either a verb or a subject. Such phrases always have two basic parts: object and preposition. Prepositions are mostly followed by objects. 
    Using option A will justify all the above rules. 'Through' is the preposition and 'garden' is the object. 
    Options B and C are not prepositional phrases. 
    Thus, option A is the correct answer.
