'Since' is used to show one of the two associations: time or cause/reason. 'Or' is used to provide choices in the sentence. 'Although' is used to contrast ideas. 'Although' can come first in the sentence. Thus, option A is the correct answer per the rule.

'Since' is used to denote time but in such case, the verb in the main clause is usually in the present perfect or past perfect. 'For' is used to denote the same meaning as because. 'Unless' is used to mean 'except if'. Thus, option A is the correct answer according to the rule. Rest of the options are wrong.

'As' is used when one event happens while another is in progress. In such a case, the verb is often in continuous form. Thus, option C is the correct answer per the rule.

Solution

Conjunctions are words that link other words, phrases or clauses together. 'Since' is used to show one of the two associations: time or cause/reason. In the given sentence, a reason is described to have ice cream. 'And' is used to link equal parts of the sentence. 'Still' is used to denote that an action or situation continues to the present because it has not finished. 'Till' is used to denote a particular time which is less formal and is used mainly in speech and informal writing.
Thus, option A is the correct answer per the rule.
Question 9
1 / -0

Choose the correct word/phrase to complete the given sentence:
I like travelling by air _______ the weather is bad.

A
while

B
because

C
unless

D
when

Solution

Option A: 'While' means 'at the same time when', or 'the time during which'. It completes the sentence grammatically, but the meaning thus formed is vague and unusual. (travelling by air while the weather is bad is one of the worst experiences; it can be fatal in extreme cases)
Options B and D: Similarly, the sentences formed with 'because' and 'when' are vague and strange in meaning. 'Because' means 'for the reason that'.
'When' is similar to 'while', it refers to the time as well.
Hence options A, B and D are incorrect.
Option C: 'Unless' means 'except if', it refers to condition.
It is used to describe 'the only situation in which something isn't true'.
It completes the sentence in grammar and meaning both: I like travelling by air, except if the weather is bad. If the weather is bad, then I do not like to travel by air.
Hence option C is correct.
Question 10
1 / -0

Fill in the blank with the most suitable conjunction:
The magic show was cancelled; __________, we went to see the movie instead.

A
but

B
and

C
since

D
therefore

Solution

In the sentence, one clause or idea, "we went to see the movie instead" is the consequence of another "the magic show was cancelled".
Option D: 'Therefore' is a conjunction used in inference-based sentences, or to indicate the consequence of an action. The word itself means 'for that reason, consequently'. Hence this is the most suitable option.
Option A: 'But' refers to contrast, for example, 'She is obedient but her sister is disobedient.' The given sentence focuses on consequence rather than contrast.
Option B: 'And' refers to an addition. It merely connects two sentences that do not affect one another. It isn't relevant here as one sentence (or clause) is the result of the other.
Option C: 'Since' refers to reason or cause. It does not refer to the consequence, but to the reason behind doing something. The meaning isn't relevant here.
Hence options A, B and C are incorrect.
