Q20 / 100 2.00 marks

Select the option that expresses the given sentence in active voice. The counting exercise had been finished by him by the afternoon.

💡 Explanation: The sentence is in the past perfect tense and it is in the passive form. The rule for changing the voice of a past perfect tense is as follows: Passive voice: Object + had been + past participle + by + subject → [The counting exercise + had been + finished + by + him (by the afternoon)]. 'By the afternoon' is just some extra information at the end. Active voice: Subject + had + past participle + object → [He + had + finished + the counting exercise (by the afternoon)] Hence, option (b) is the correct answer. | Provided by @apna_quiz

Q22 / 100 2.00 marks

Select the option that expresses the given sentence in direct speech. Arvind asked me whether I could accompany him to the market.

💡 Explanation: The given statement is in indirect speech. Hence, it should be converted into direct speech. Reporting verb 'asked' used in indirect speech will be changed into said/said to in the direct speech. Also, simple past tense of indirect speech changes into simple present tense of direct. Hence, option b) is eliminated. When conjunction 'if/whether' is used with 'could' in the sentence, then it is an interrogative sentence used as 'can + sub + obj + rest of the sentence'. And, conjunction is removed from the indirect speech (while converting into direct speech). So, option c) is eliminated (because of 'whether'). Now, 'I' is the subject of sub-clause. Thus, it is converted into 'you'. So, option d) is eliminated. So, the correct sentence in direct speech is: Arvind said to me, "Can you accompany me to the market?" Hence, option a) is correct. | Provided by @apna_quiz

Q23 / 100 2.00 marks

Select the grammatically correct sentence.

💡 Explanation: Options a) and d) are incorrect as they use the plural verb 'are' for the singular subject 'work-life balance'. It is a violation of the subject-verb agreement. 'Is demanding' is the construct for the active voice, but in the given sentence in option b), 'work-life balance' is the receiver of the action, so the passive voice construct should have been used here. So, option b) is incorrect too. Option (c) is both grammatically and contextually correct. Hence, option (c) is the answer. Note: Subject-Verb Agreement: Matching up singular or plural subjects with singular or plural forms of a verb is part of the process called agreement. This can be understood better by the examples given: - "She likes cooking." [singular subject and verb] -- "They like to cook vegetables." [plural subject and verb] Active and Passive Voice: When the person doing the action is the subject, the sentence is said to be in active form/voice. When the subject is what the action is directed at, then the sentence is said to be in passive form/voice. For example: Active Voice: Rita and her friends performed a skit. Here 'Rita and her friends' (subject) perform the action. Passive Voice: A skit was performed by Rita and her friends. Here 'skit' is the subject (at which the action is directed). | Provided by @apna_quiz

Q24 / 100 2.00 marks

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank. Many households _______ have no gas to cook food.

💡 Explanation: The blank requires an adverb to qualify the verb 'have'. Among the given options, 'currently' is the only adverb. All other options can act as either nouns or adjectives. Hence, option (d) is the correct answer. The correct sentence is: Many households currently have no gas to cook food. Note: Adverbs: Words that describe a verb, an adjective, another adverb, or even a sentence as a whole are called Adverbs. | Provided by @apna_quiz

Q25 / 100 2.00 marks

Select the option that expresses the given sentence in passive voice. He had shown signs of courage and ambition through his work of art.

💡 Explanation: The subject of the Active Voice is changed into the object of the Passive voice. Also, the object of the Active Voice is changed into the subject of the Passive Voice. The usage of a "to be" form of verb is necessary while changing the voice of the sentence from Active to Passive. In Passive Voice, the preposition "by" is used before the object. However, it is optional in some cases. The Active voice in this question is in Past Perfect . Thus, the Passive voice will also be in Past Perfect. The format of Active voice is: Subject + had + V3 + Object. Thus, in Passive voice, the format will be: Object of the active voice (Subjective case) + had + been + V3 + by + Subject of the active voice (Objective case). For example: I had called her. (Active Voice) She had been called by me. (Passive Voice) The options except (c) don't follow the correct grammatical format of the Passive Voice. Therefore, the correct answer is (c): Signs of courage and ambition had been shown by him through his work of art. | Provided by @apna_quiz

Q35 / 100 2.00 marks

In each question below is given a statement followed by two courses of action numbered I and II. You have to assume everything in the statement to be true and on the basis of the information given in the statement, decide which of the suggested courses of action logically follow(s) for pursuing. Statement: A residential area reports frequent drinking-water contamination after a pipeline repair, and several homes complain of foul smell and muddy water from taps. Course of action I: Isolate the affected line, supply alternate safe water temporarily, and test water quality before restoring full flow. Course of action II: Tell residents to permanently stop using tap water and shift only to bottled water. नीचे प्रत्येक प्रश्न में एक कथन दिया गया है जिसके बाद दो कार्यवाही के विकल्प क्रमांकित I और II दिए गए हैं। आपको कथन में दी गई सभी बातों को सत्य मानना है और कथन में दी गई जानकारी के आधार पर यह निर्णय लेना है कि सुझाए गए कार्यवाही के कौन से विकल्प तार्किक रूप से अनुसरण करने योग्य हैं। कथन: एक आवासीय क्षेत्र में पाइपलाइन की मरम्मत के बाद बार-बार पेयजल प्रदूषण की शिकायतें आती हैं, और कई घरों में नलों से बदबूदार और कीचड़ भरा पानी निकलने की शिकायत है। कार्यवाही I: प्रभावित लाइन को अलग करें, अस्थायी रूप से वैकल्पिक सुरक्षित पानी की आपूर्ति करें, और पूर्ण प्रवाह बहाल करने से पहले पानी की गुणवत्ता का परीक्षण करें। कार्यवाही II: निवासियों को नलों के पानी का स्थायी रूप से उपयोग बंद करने और केवल बोतलबंद पानी पर ही निर्भर रहने को कहें।

💡 Explanation: Course of action I is logical because it controls the problem area, protects residents immediately, and ensures safety before normal supply resumes. Course of action II is not logical because it is an unrealistic permanent solution and does not address repairing and securing the public supply system. Therefore, only course of action I follows, so option b. | Provided by @apna_quiz

Sharper students need only one night of study to secure good marks. एक स्थिति दी गई है जिसके बाद दो निष्कर्ष I और II दिए गए हैं। स्थिति और दोनों निष्कर्षों को ध्यानपूर्वक पढ़ें और सही उत्तर चुनें। स्थिति: परीक्षा से पहले देर रात तक पढ़ाई करने वाले छात्र आमतौर पर केवल पासिंग मार्क्स ही प्राप्त करते हैं। जो छात्र कई महीनों तक पढ़ाई करते हैं, उन्हें सबसे अधिक अंक मिलते हैं। परीक्षा से एक दिन पहले पढ़ाई करके भी पास होना और अच्छे अंक प्राप्त करना निश्चित रूप से संभव है, लेकिन कॉलेज या विश्वविद्यालय में टॉपर बनने के लिए एक संतुलित समय सारिणी की आवश्यकता होती है। निष्कर्ष: I. आप जितनी धीमी गति से पढ़ेंगे, उतना ही बेहतर समझेंगे। II. तेज छात्रों को अच्छे अंक प्राप्त करने के लिए केवल एक रात की पढ़ाई की आवश्यकता होती है।

💡 Explanation: The situation states that, Before tests, students who study late at night usually only get passing grades. Students who study for several months get the highest grades. Studying the day before an exam would undoubtedly help one pass and get good grades, but maintaining a balanced schedule is necessary to be a top student. I. The slower you read the better you understand: Toppers have balanced schedule which helps them in better understanding. So, continuously study helps in better understand. So, conclusion (I) can be concluded. II. Sharper students need only one night of study to secure good marks: This statement is vague as per the given situation. So, conclusion (II) cannot be concluded. | Provided by @apna_quiz

Impulse is expressed as change in ___________. आवेग को ___________ में परिवर्तन के रूप में व्यक्त किया जाता है।

💡 Explanation: Momentum refers to the quantity of motion that an object has. Sometimes a large force acts for a short time to produce a finite change in momentum of the body. For example, when a ball hits a wall and bounces back, the force on the ball by the wall acts for a very short time when the two are in contact, yet the force is large enough to reverse the momentum of the ball. Often, in these situations, the force and the time duration are difficult to ascertain separately. However, the product of force and time, which is the change in momentum of the body remains a measurable quantity. This product is called impulse: Impulse = Force X time duration = Change in momentum | Provided by @apna_quiz
