Q.7. Kashyap and his colleagues lives in makeshift (a)/ colonies constructed by (b)/ some contractor firms. (c)/ No Error (d)
Ans. a
Sol. The given sentence is framed in the present tense. The subject of the sentence is ‘Kashyap and his colleagues’, which is plural in nature, so the plural form of verb ‘live’ should be used here instead of the singular form ‘lives’.

In 1959, the Dalai Lama of Tibet sought asylum in India, with several thousands of his people following him.)
Q.12. While locust swarms continue to plague African countries, (a)/ for now, the outbreak has tapered down in India (b)/ with swarms headed back towards Sindh and Balochistan. (c)/ No Error (d)

Q.13. The brown-coloured desert locust (a)/ usually lived as a solitary creature (b)/ in desert and bush lands. (c)/ No Error (d)
Ans. b
Sol. Use ‘lives’ – in place of – ‘lived’. The sentence talks about in a general or usual way (as we can see the adverb ‘usually’) that where the brown-coloured desert locust lives. So, it has to be form in the present tense.
Q.14. Normally, desert locusts are limited by a recession area (a)/ enveloping the African Sahel to the (b)/ west and Rajasthan to the east. (c)/ No Error (d)
Ans. a
Sol. Use the preposition ‘limited to’ – in place of – ‘limited by’.

Worsen (v) = to become worse or to make something become worse
Ex- As the company’s financial problems worsened, several directors resigned.
Q.16. Jack Welch, who passed away (a)/ on Sunday, is perhaps (b)/ the most consequential business leader of his time. (c)/ No Error (d)
