Daily Quiz for Competitive Exams – English Language: Solutions

Solutions

S1. Ans.(a)

Sol. The correct option is (a) Mausoleum.

Meaning of options:

Mausoleum: A large and impressive tomb, especially one above ground and made of stone.

(Cemetery: A large burial ground, especially one not attached to a church.

Mosque: A Muslim place of worship, typically having a domed roof and a minaret.

Masterpiece: A work of outstanding artistry, skill, or workmanship.

The word “mausoleum” fits this description perfectly. It refers to a large and impressive tomb, often above ground and made of stone, and is typically used to describe a monument or building that houses the remains of a famous or important person.

S2. Ans.(d)

Sol. The most appropriate option that can substitute the highlighted segment in the given sentence is: option (d) of the house was unclean.

The phrase “every nook and corner” means every part of a place. In the given sentence, the subject is “Every nook and corner” which is singular.

Therefore, the verb “was” should be used instead of “were” to match the subject-verb agreement.

The preposition “of” is used to indicate the relationship between two things, in this case, every nook and corner of the house.

So, option (d) is the correct substitution for the highlighted segment in the sentence.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: Every nook and corner of the house was unclean.

S3. Ans.(c)

Sol. Direct speech is the use of the exact words spoken by someone, enclosed in quotation marks.

Indirect speech (also called reported speech) is when we report what someone said without necessarily using their exact words. In indirect speech, we use a reporting verb to introduce the speaker’s words and often have to change the tense and some of the words in the original sentence.

The given sentence is reported speech, where John is the speaker and is reporting what he said earlier.

The reported speech is in the past tense, and to convert it to direct speech, we need to change the tense and pronouns accordingly.

Option (c) “John said, ‘I am here to resolve this fight for you.'” is the correct direct form of the given sentence.

Here, we have changed the past tense “was” to present tense “am,” and the pronoun “he” to “I.” The reporting verb “said” remains the same.

S4. Ans.(a)

Sol. Tyranny-Cruel and oppressive government or rule.

Autocracy- A system of government by one person with absolute power.

Antonyms: democracy, freedom, liberty.

Synonyms: dictatorship, despotism, oppression, autocracy.

Option meanings:

Compassion: Sympathetic concern for the sufferings or misfortunes of others.

Social: Relating to society or its organization.

Discordance: Lack of harmony or agreement.

S5. Ans.(c)

Sol. The most appropriate option to substitute the highlighted segment in the given sentence would be (c) sericulture.

The sentence is talking about the rearing of silk worms, which is the process of obtaining silk from the cocoons of the domesticated silkworm. This process is called sericulture.

Meaning of the other words:

Pisciculture is the process of rearing and breeding fish.

Agriculture is the practice of cultivating land, raising crops, and/or rearing animals for food or other products.

Apiculture is the maintenance of bee colonies, usually for the purpose of harvesting honey.

S6. Ans.(d)

Sol. Active Voice– It denotes that the noun or pronoun that acts as the subject in the sentence is the doer of the action. In other words, the subject performs the action or acts upon the verb.

Passive Voice- represents that the subject is one acted upon by the action or verb in the sentence. It can also be said that the passive voice indicates that the subject in the sentence is no longer active but passive.

The correct active form of the given sentence is (d) Thousands of people are expected to attend the memorial event.

The original sentence is in the passive voice with “The memorial event is expected to be attended by thousands of people.”

To convert this into the active voice, we need to make the subject (thousands of people) the doer of the action (attend), and make the verb active.

Option (a) is incorrect because it uses the wrong verb tense (was expected instead of are expected), and also puts the subject (thousands of people) in the wrong place in the sentence.

Option (b) is incorrect because it uses the wrong verb form (attending instead of attend).

Option (c) is incorrect because it uses the wrong verb tense (had expected instead of are expected), and also uses the wrong verb form (attending instead of attend).

S7. Ans.(b)

Sol. The INCORRECTLY spelled word in the following sentence is (b) tyrany.

The correct spelling of the word is “tyranny”.

Meanings of the options:

Tranquility: a state of calm and peacefulness.

Tyranny: cruel and oppressive government or rule.

Serenity: a state of being calm, peaceful, and untroubled.

Harmony: a state of agreement or pleasant musical sound produced by chords and intervals that are in agreement.

S8. Ans.(b)

Sol. The INCORRECTLY spelt word is (b) Kecthup.

The correct spelling of the word is “ketchup”.

Meanings of the options:

Movement: an act of changing physical location or position, or a group of people working together to advance a shared goal or purpose.

Ketchup: a thick, tomato-based sauce typically used as a condiment for foods such as french fries, burgers, and hot dogs.

Precise: marked by exactness and accuracy of expression or detail.

Flashy: showy in appearance or behavior; tending to attract attention through conspicuousness.

S9. Ans.(b)

Sol. The most appropriate phrasal verb to fill in the blank in the given sentence would be (b) lay off.

The sentence is talking about the company’s low profits, which means they may not have enough money to pay all their employees. In such situations, companies are often forced to lay off staff, which means they have to terminate the employment of some employees.

“Lisp off” is not a phrasal verb and doesn’t make sense in this context.

“Lay on” means to provide or offer something, and it doesn’t fit the meaning of the sentence.

“Lie on” means to be the responsibility or obligation of someone, and it doesn’t fit the context of the sentence.

S10. Ans.(d)

Sol. There is no error in the given sentence, so the correct answer is (d) No error.

All the parts of the sentence are grammatically correct and there is no spelling error. The sentence is in the past tense, and the word order is correct.
