Daily Quiz for Competitive Exams – English Language: Solutions

Solutions

S1. Ans.(a)

Sol. The correct sentence is: option (a) My mother asked me to purchase two bread knives having serrated edges.

The word “serrated” means having or denoting a jagged edge; saw-like. The other options have spelling errors such as “seerated” (b), “serratted” (c), and “serated” (d), which are not correct spellings of the word “serrated”.

S2. Ans.(b)

Sol. The term alimony refers to the payment made by a husband to his wife after separation or divorce to provide financial support. It is an allowance given to the wife from her husband’s income to support herself and their children, if any. Therefore, option (b) is the correct one-word substitute for the given group of words.

The other options are:

Allegory: A story, poem, or picture that can be interpreted to reveal a hidden meaning, typically a moral or political one.

Affidavit: A written statement confirmed by oath or affirmation, for use as evidence in court.

Advocacy: Public support for or recommendation of a particular cause or policy.

S3. 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 It can also be said that the passive voice indicates that the subject in the sentence is no longer active but passive.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 sentence is an example of active voice having form:

Subject + was/were + v1+ing+ object.

When it is converted into passive voice, following rule must be followed:

Object+ was/were +being+V3+ by + subject.

S4. Ans.(d)

Sol. The correct answer is (d) exact.

In this sentence, “exact replica” is the correct collocation. “Exact” means precise, accurate, and completely similar.

“Replica” means a copy or reproduction of something, usually made to be as similar as possible to the original.

So, “exact replica” means a precise copy that is completely similar to the original.

The other options do not fit well in the context of the sentence. “Wild replica,” “obscure replica,” and “corrupt replica” do not make sense in the context.

S5. Ans.(d)

Sol. The correct spelling is “nuisance” as given in option (d) which means a person, thing, or situation that causes inconvenience or annoyance.

S6. Ans.(b)

Sol. The correct option to fill in the blank in the sentence is (b) illuminating.

“Illuminating” means to provide or cast light upon something, and in this context, it refers to the lights that are shining on the artwork, making it visible and enhancing its beauty.

Meaning of other given words:

Enlightening means providing knowledge or insight, which is not appropriate in the given context.

Trafficking refers to the illegal trade of goods or people and has no relevance to the sentence.

Mesmerising means to capture someone’s attention and hold it in awe or fascination, which could be an appropriate word in this context but does not fit as well as “illuminating.”

S7. Ans.(d)

Sol. The most appropriate meaning of the highlighted idiom in the given sentence is “very active”. The phrase “in full swing” means that something is happening with great energy and activity. In the given sentence, it implies that the game is progressing with full energy and activity.

Example- “The party was in full swing when I arrived, with everyone dancing and having a great time.”

S8. Ans.(b)

Sol. Cogent means clear, logical, and convincing.

Unconvincing means not persuasive or compelling.

Therefore, the correct option is (b) Unconvincing.

Synonyms: clear, compelling, convincing, effective, persuasive, powerful, strong.

Antonyms: unpersuasive, unconvincing, weak, ineffective, feeble.

Meaning of the given words:

Compelling means evoking interest, attention, or admiration in a powerfully irresistible way.

Pertinent means relevant or applicable to a particular matter.

Unexpected means not expected or anticipated.

S9. Ans.(a)

Sol. The sentences can be rearranged in the following order to make it grammatically and logically correct:

Thorium has been tested as a fuel in other types: This part of the sentence talks about the use of thorium as a fuel in other types of nuclear reactors.

of nuclear reactors in countries including the United States, Germany, and the United Kingdom: This part of the sentence gives examples of the countries where thorium has been tested as a fuel in nuclear reactors.

and is part of a nuclear programme in India: This part of the sentence talks about how thorium is also part of the nuclear program in India.

The sentence ends with the missing part which could be something like “This makes thorium an important resource for nuclear energy worldwide.”

Therefore, the correct order of the sentence is “RQSP.”

S10. Ans.(b)

Sol. The segment that contains a grammatical error is (b) “be hurry,”. The correct phrase is “be in a hurry” instead of “be hurry.”

The phrase “be in a hurry” means to be moving or acting quickly because there is a time constraint.

In this sentence, it is necessary to use the preposition “in” with “hurry” to make it grammatically correct.

Therefore, the correct sentence would be: “You must be in a hurry, otherwise you will miss the train.”
