  • Question 1/10
    1 / -0.25

    A sentence divided into three parts I, II and III is given. Determine the part(s) which requires correction and mark it as your answer.

    Though recovery is underway, there is still (I)/continuous need to nurture and support (II)/ growth make monetary policy broad-based and durable. (III)

    Solutions

    Here, the error is in III part. ‘to’ will be used before ‘make’ to make the sentence contextually meaningful and grammatically correct. In this sentence, ‘to’ is showing ‘the purpose of making the monetary policy broad-based and durable’. Hence, C is the right answer choice.

  • Question 2/10
    1 / -0.25

    A sentence divided into three parts I, II and III is given. Determine the part(s) which requires correction and mark it as your answer.

    The Collectorate was subsequently (I)/shifted but several offices have (II)/be functioning and regulate from the building. (III)

    Solutions

    The sentence will become grammatically correct and contextually meaningful if in II part, ‘have’ is replaced with 'would' and in part III, ‘functioning and regulating’ is used. Both the verbs [function and regulate] are connected using the conjunction ‘and’, and hence both should be in similar forms. Hence, only option (D) is the most viable answer choice.

  • Question 3/10
    1 / -0.25

    A sentence divided into three parts I, II and III is given. Determine the part(s) which requires correction and mark it as your answer.

    I'm not surprised (I)/ the offer wasn't genuine(II)/, it sounded too good to have been true. (III)

    Solutions

    The sentence can be made grammatically correct and contextually meaningful by replacing the phrase “to have been true” with “to be true”.

    It is to be noted that the correct grammatical syntax requires [too + positive degree + to + V1] which is not provided in the given sentence.

    Only option A is the most suitable answer choice.

  • Question 4/10
    1 / -0.25

    A sentence divided into three parts I, II and III is given. There may be an error in one or more parts. Determine the part(s) which requires correction and mark it as your answer.

    Start out with no more than four coffees, all single-origins from different regions and (I)/ avoid blends, and also avoid extremely dark roast coffees, since higher roast levels (II)/ tend to make the origin characteristics hard to discern. (III)

    Solutions

    Part I and part II are correct. As we know nouns denoting things that cannot be counted, such as wine, coffee and intelligence, do not easily form plurals in their central senses. But some of them can be pluralized when they have transferred senses, such as varieties (Rhone wines), measures (four coffees) or embodiments (alien intelligences).

    So, if part II is correct, then, in part III, it should be ‘harder,’ not hard, because of ‘higher.’

    Therefore, option E is the apt answer.
