Q.1. I declare after all that there is (a)/ no enjoyment like reading. How much soon (b)/ one tires of anything than of a book! (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. b
Sol. Use ‘sooner’ – in place of – ‘soon’. ‘Sooner’ is the comparative form of the adverb ‘soon’. As we can see the preposition ‘than’ is used here for comparison, so, we have to use ‘sooner’ instead of ‘soon’.
Q.2. I could easily forgive (a)/ his pride, if he had (b)/ not mortified mine. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. a
Sol. Use ‘could have easily forgiven’ – in place of – ‘could easily forgive’. We use ‘could have’ to talk about possibilities if something had been different in the past.
‘Could have’ is often used with “if + had + past participle” (If I had gone / if she hadn’t fallen) – these “if” phrases express the imaginary past situation. However, in some cases you can use could have without the “if” phrase. Imagine you’re driving with a person who makes a dangerous maneuver on the road. You can say: – “Are you crazy? We could have gotten into an accident.”
Q.3. He is a gentleman, (a)/ and I am gentleman’s daughter. (b)/ So far we are equal. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. b
Sol. Use the indefinite article ‘a’ before the noun ‘gentleman’.
Q.4. All savages are savages. (a)/ They behave alike, (b)/ more or less. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. d
Sol. No error
Q.5. Was he an animal, that music could move him so? (a)/ He felt as if the way to the unknown nourishment (b)/ he longed for were coming to light. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. c
Sol. Use ‘was’ – in place of – ‘were’. The helping verb ‘were’ is used here for the noun ‘way’, which is singular, so, we have to use the singular verb ‘was’ for the noun ‘way’.
Q.6. If I didn’t have my parents to think about, (a)/ I’d have given in my notice a long time ago (b)/ and tell him everything. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. c
Sol. Use ‘told’ – in place of – ‘tell’. The sentence is framed in the past tense, so, we have to use the past of the verb ‘told’ instead of the present tense ‘tell’.
Q.7. Many a book is like key to (a)/ unknown chambers within (b)/ the castle of one’s own self. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. a
Sol. Use the indefinite article ‘a’ before the noun ‘key’.
Q.8. A castle can never be home (b)/ because home is born out (c)/ of love not of fear! (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. b
Sol. Use the indefinite article ‘a’ before the noun ‘home’.
Q.9. They’re talking about things of which they don’t have (a)/ the slightest understanding. It’s only because of (b)/ their stupidity that they are able to be so sure of themselves. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. d
Sol. No error
Q.10. Logic may indeed unshakeable, (a)/ but it cannot withstand a man (b)/ who is determined to live. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. a
Sol. We have no main verb after the modal verb ‘may’. We have to use the verb ‘be’ after the adverb ‘indeed’ and before the adjective ‘unshakeable’.
Q.11. The right understanding of any matter (a)/ and a misunderstanding of the same matter (b)/ does not wholly exclude each other. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. c
Sol. Use ‘do not’ – in place of – ‘does not’. We are talking about two things here, the right understanding and a misunderstanding, so, the plural verb form ‘do not’ should be used here.
Q.12. The books we need are of the kind (a)/ that act upon us like a misfortune, which make us suffer like (b)/ the death of someone we love more than ourselves. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. b
Sol. Use ‘makes’ – in place of – ‘make’. After the relative pronoun ‘which’, we need a verb for the noun ‘a misfortune’, which is singular in nature, so, we have to use the singular form of verb ‘makes’ instead of the plural form ‘make’.
Q.13. You must not pay too much attention to opinions. (a)/ The written words are unalterable, and opinions are (b)/ often only expression of despair. (c)/ No error (d
Ans. c
Sol. Use the indefinite article ‘an’ before the noun ‘expression’.
Q.14. It is not necessary to accept (a)/ everything as true, one must (b)/ only accept it as necessary. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. d
Sol. No error
Q.15. It’s sometime quite astonishing that a single, average life is enough to encompass so much that it’s at all possible ever to have any success in one work here. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. c
Sol. We have to use the possessive case “one’s” instead of the pronoun “one”.
Q.16. If he stayed at home and carried on with his normal life, (a)/ he would be a thousand times superior than these people and (b)/ could get any of them out of his way just with a kick. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. b
Sol. Use ‘superior to’ – in place of – ‘superior than’. Preposition ‘to’ is used after the superlative form ‘superior’, ‘prior’, ‘inferior’, etc.
Q.17. When one has lived for thirty years in this world (a)/ and had to fight one’s way through it, as I have had to do, (b)/ one becomes hardened to surprises and doesn’t take them too seriously. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. c
Sol. Use ‘to surprise’ – in place of – ‘to surprises’. After the preposition ‘to’, first form of the verb (surprise) is required here instead of the singular form (surprises).
Q.18. Am I going to leave this (a)/ world as a man who (b)/ shies away from all conclusions? (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. d
Sol. No error
Q.19. He accepted it as a (a)/ fundamental principle for an accused (b)/ men to be always forearmed. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. c
Sol. Use ‘man’ – in place of – ‘men’. As we have used indefinite article ‘an’ to denote a singular noun, so, we have to use the singular noun ‘man’ instead of the plural noun ‘men’.
Q.20. The court wants nothing from you. (a)/ It receives you when you come (b)/ and dismisses you when you go. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. a
Sol. Use the indefinite article ‘a’ – in place of – ‘the’. We don’t know here of which court we are talking about as it is not mentioned here. It means we are talking about a court in a general sense. So, we have to use the indefinite article ‘a’ before the noun ‘court’.
