..........Alps are the longest mountain range in Europe.
The
Answer: (C) The

( Choose the correct option )
into
Correct Answer: (C) into

- The correct idiomatic expression is "creep into", which means to gradually enter or appear.

Which word in this sentence is an error?
He is worried in his father's illness.
[PYQ 2025]
in
The error in the sentence is the word “in”.
Correct sentence:He is worried about his father’s illness.
Explanation:The correct preposition used with “worried” is about, not in.
Would you like to have __________ tea or coffee?
some
Option A - some
'some' is used with uncountable nouns.
I haven't seen him in............five years.
no article
Answer: (D) no article
Explanation: “Five years” is a plural time expression, so no article is used — I haven’t seen him in five years.
Choose the correct option to answer the following :
Her brother _______ , before he reached there.
had gone
Correct Answer: (D) had gone
Explanation:
The phrase “before he reached there” shows that one action happened earlier than another action in the past.
To show an earlier past action, we use the Past Perfect Tense (had + past participle).
So the correct sentence is:
“Her brother had gone before he reached there.”
.........you decided yet?
Have
Answer: (D) Have
Explanation: Present perfect question form — Have you decided yet?
The boy ___________ the bird almost everyday.
catches
Explanation: 'Almost every day' signals a habitual action → Simple Present Tense. Subject is 'the boy' (third-person singular) → add '-es': catches.
(1) 'Catch' is base form — used with I/We/You/They, not with He/She/It.
(3) 'Catching' is present participle — needs an auxiliary like 'is'.
(4) 'Caught' is past tense — inconsistent with the habitual 'every day'.
Eggs are sold by _______ dozen.
no article
Correct answer: D) no article.
Explanation:
-
The sentence should read: “Eggs are sold by dozen.”
-
“ dozen” is the standard way to express one set of twelve items.
-
Other options are grammatically incorrect here.
Take care ------- your health.
of
Correct answer: A) of
Explanation:
The correct phrase is “take care of”, which means to look after something.
Correct sentence:
Take care of your health.
Choose the correct Passive Voice:
She closed the window.
The window was closed by her.
...............
I have to........... to the finish line and back.
run
Answer: (C) run
Explanation: The infinitive “to run” is correct — I have to run to the finish line and back.
The girl........you saw was Sohan's sister.
whom
Answer: (A) whom
Explanation: “Whom” is used as the object of the verb “saw” — The girl whom you saw was Sohan’s sister.
The boys ------- very tired today because they were at a party last night.
( Choose the correct option )
are
Correct Answer: (D) are
Explanation:
- "The boys" is a plural subject, so it needs a plural verb.
- The word today shows the present time, so we use the present tense.
- Hence, are is correct.
I have nothing ................... to say.
(Choose the correct option)
further
The correct option is A.
Here, 'further' means additional / more. “I have nothing further to say.” means 'I have no more to add'.
Other Options:
-
'Farther' refers to physical distance (comparative of 'far').
-
Example: We walked farther than we planned.
-
Not correct here because the sentence is about adding information, not distance.
-
-
'Neither' and 'Either' are used when making a choice between two things. They do not mean "additional" or "more," so they do not fit the context of this sentence.
Quick Trick to Remember
-
If you can replace the word with 'additional' or 'more', use Further.
-
If you are talking about physical miles/meters, use Farther.
He declared his______
(Choose the correct option)
innocence
Here, the verb declared needs a noun object, meaning it should express what he declared.
The word “his” also requires a noun after it. “Innocence” is the noun form of the word and correctly expresses the idea that he claimed he was not guilty.
Other options are incorrect because:
- “Innocent” is an adjective, so it cannot act as an object.
- “Innocently” is an adverb that describes a manner, not a thing.
- “By innocent” is grammatically incorrect and does not make sense in the structure.
Please help __________.
yourself
(D) yourself
“Please help yourself” is the correct reflexive form used when addressing someone directly.
She needs some new clothes, --------- ?
(Choose the correct option )
doesn't she
Correct Answer: (D) doesn't she
Explanation:
- The statement is affirmative (She needs...) and in the simple present tense.
- The main verb is needs, so the auxiliary does is used in the question tag.
- An affirmative statement takes a negative question tag → doesn't she.
Select the most appropriate question for the underlined answer
Sentence: Hetal is preparing seriously to pass the IAS exam.
Why is she preparing seriously?
(-) What does she prepare to pass the IAS exam?
Explanation / Why WRONG. 'What' asks about the object/thing she prepares. The underlined purpose phrase does not answer 'What'.
(-) How is she preparing to pass the IAS exam? CORRECT. 'To pass the IAS exam' states the PURPOSE / REASON for her preparation. Purpose always answers 'Why?' WRONG. 'How' asks about MANNER — the answer to 'How' would be 'seriously' (the adverb), not the underlined purpose phrase.
(-) Who is preparing to pass the IAS exam? WRONG. 'Who' asks about the PERSON. The answer would be 'Hetal', not the underlined purpose phrase.
(+) Why is she preparing seriously?
CORRECT. 'To pass the IAS exam' states the PURPOSE / REASON for her preparation. Purpose always answers 'Why?'
Q1. How quiet it was!
Instruction: (Turn into assertive)
It was very quiet.
(B) It was very quiet. CORRECT. Exclamatory 'How + adj + it was!' → Assertive: remove 'How', use 'It was very + adj.' The intensifier 'very' replaces 'How'.
(A) How it was very quiet. WRONG. This is still an exclamatory structure ('How it was...'). Simply rearranging does not make it assertive. Tense/structure is also unnatural.
(C) It was really a quiet. WRONG. 'Really a quiet' is grammatically incorrect — 'quiet' here is an adjective, not a noun. Cannot say 'a quiet'.
(D) It is very quiet. WRONG. The original sentence is in past tense ('it was'). Option D changes the tense to present ('it is'), which alters the meaning.

Madhav is good ________ English.
at
Correct answer: C) at
Explanation:
We use "good at" to show skill or ability in a subject or activity.
Example: Madhav is good at English.
____________ he studied hard, he failed.
Although
Correct answer: A) Although
Explanation:
-
The sentence should read: “Although he studied hard, he failed.”
-
Although introduces a contrast between studying hard and failing.
-
Other options (so, because, since) do not express contrast correctly.
Choose the correct direct narration:
He told the boy not to sit there.
"Don't sit here," he said to the boy
The correct answer is:
(D) "Don't sit here," he said to the boy
Told … not to in indirect speech becomes a negative imperative in direct speech → “Don’t …”
There changes to here in direct narration.
Imperatives use the base form of the verb (sit, not sat or didn’t sit).
February has __________ days than March.
fewer
Correct answer: C) fewer
Explanation:
The sentence should read: “February has fewer days than March.”
-
Fewer is used with countable nouns (days, apples, books).
-
Less is for uncountable nouns (water, sugar).
Meeta said, "She will sing a song". (Choose the correct indirect narration)
Meeta said that she would sing a song
Answer: (C) Meeta said that she would sing a song
Explanation: In indirect speech, will changes to would when the reporting verb is in the past tense.
They went to the beach _________ a picnic.
for
Correct answer : (a) for
The correct sentence is: “They went to the beach for a picnic.” “For a picnic” is used when we mention the purpose of going somewhere. The sentence structure is: go to + place + for + purpose. “On a picnic” is correct only when we say: They went on a picnic. Since the place (the beach) is already mentioned, for is grammatically correct here.Choose the correct sentence :
I need to sleep well
(B) I need to sleep well.
This is the correct and natural structure; others are grammatically wrong.
I sing ____.
