Q.1. Patriotism is your conviction (a)/ that this country is more superior to all others (b)/ because you were born in it.(c)/ No error (d)
Ans. b
Sol. Use ‘superior to’ – in place of – ‘more superior to’. The word ‘superior’ is a superlative adjective not a comparative adjective, so, we need not use the adverb ‘more’ here.
Q.2. History teaches us (a)/ that we don’t learn (b)/ anything from history. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. d
Sol. No error
Q.3. Happiness is having a large, (a)/ loving, caring, close-knit (b)/ family in the another city. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. c
Sol. Use ‘in another city’ – in place of – ‘in the another city’. We don’t need to use the definite article ‘the’ here as we are not talking about any specific/definite/known another country. We are talking in a general way about any another city.
Q.4. You know you’re getting old when (a)/ you stoop to tie your shoelaces and wondered what else (b)/ you could do while you are down there.(c)/ No error (d)
Ans. b
Sol. Use ‘wonder’ – in place of – ‘wondered’. The sentence is framed in the present tense, so, first form of the verb (wonder) should be used here instead of the past form (wondered).
Q.5. Have you ever noticed that anybody (a)/ driving slower than you is an idiot, (b)/ and anyone going more fast than you is a maniac?(c)/ No error (d)
Ans. c
Sol. Use ‘faster’ – in place of – ‘more fast’. The correct comparative form of ‘fast’ is not ‘more fast’, it is ‘faster’.
Q.6. Sometime I think why people seem to read more and more Bible (a)/as they getting older, then, it comes to my mind that (b)/ they are preparing themselves for their final exam.(c)/ No error (d)
Ans. b
Sol. Use ‘get older’ – in place of – ‘getting older’. The sentence is framed in the present tense, so, fist form of the verb ‘get’ should be used here.
Q.7. The judge is a law student (a)/ who marks his (b)/ own examination papers.(c)/ No error (d)
Ans. a
Sol. Use ‘a judge’ – in place of – ‘the judge’. We don’t need to use the definite article ‘the’ with the noun ‘judge’, as we are not talking about any specific judge. We are talking about a judge only in a general way.
Q.8. The two most common elements (a)/ in the universe are (b)/ the hydrogen and the stupidity. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. c
Sol. Use ‘hydrogen and stupidity’ – in place of – ‘the hydrogen and the stupidity’. The definite article ‘the’ is not required here before the nouns ‘hydrogen’ and ‘stupidity’. These words are used here in general sense.
Q.9. To those of you who have received honours, awards (a)/ and distinctions, I say “well done”. And to the ‘C’ students, (b)/ yes, you too, can be the PM of this country. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. d
Sol. No error
Q.10. It’s only when you look at an ant (a)/ through a magnifying glass on a sunny day and (b)/ you realize how often they burst into flames. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. c
Sol. Use ‘it’ – in place of – ‘they’. We need a pronoun for the noun ‘an ant’, which is singular, so, we have to use the singular pronoun ‘it’ instead of the plural pronoun ‘they’.
Q.11. It’s a recession when your neighbour (a)/ loses his job and it’s depression (b)/ when you lose yours. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. b
Sol. Article ‘a’ has to be used here before the noun ‘depression’.
Q.12. Before marriage, a man declares that he (a)/will lay down his life to serve her and after marriage, (b)/ he doesn’t even lay down his newspaper to talk her.(c)/ No error (d)
Ans. c
Sol. Use ‘talk to her’ – in place of – ‘talk her’. Preposition ‘to’ is required here after the verb ‘talk’.
Ex- Babu, please!Talk to me.
Q.13. Life begins at 40 – but so do fallen arches, (a)/ rheumatism, faulty eyesight, and the tendency to tell a story (b)/ to the same person, three or four times. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. d
Sol. No error
Q.14. Money is not the most important (a)/ thing in the world but the love is, (b)/ and fortunately, most people love money. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. b
Sol. Remove the article ‘the’ before the noun ‘love’. We don’t have to use the definite article ‘the’ here for ‘love’ as we are talking about love in a general sense.
Q.15. My pessimism extends to the (a)/ point of even suspecting the (b)/ sincerity of other pessimists. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. d
Sol. No error
Q.16. It’s amazing that the amount of news (a)/ that happen in the world every day always just (b)/ exactly fits in a newspaper. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. b
Sol. Use ‘happens’ – in place of – ‘happen’. the subject of the verb ‘happen’ in the sentence is ‘the amount’, which is singular, so, the singular form ‘happens’ should be used here.
Q.17. All the governments together on this (a)/ earth cannot give us as much happiness (b)/ as a simple act of opening the bottle of wine. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. c
Sol. Use ‘a bottle’ – in place of – ‘the bottle’. We are not talking about any specific bottle of wine here, we are talking about a bottle of wine in a general sense. So, the article in definite article ‘a’ should be used instead of the definite article ‘the’ with ‘bottle of wine’ here.
Q.18. Life moves pretty fast. (a)/ If you don’t stop and look around once (b)/ in a while, you could miss it. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. c
Sol. Use the modal verb ‘can’ – in place of – ‘could’. The sentence is framed in the present tense so, the modal verb ‘can’ should be used here instead of ‘could’.
Q.19. Life is hard and (a)/ it is more hard (b)/ if you are stupid. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. b
Sol. Use ‘harder’ – in place of – ‘more hard’. The comparative form of ‘hard’ is not ‘more hard’, it is ‘harder’. So, ‘harder’ should be used here in place of ‘more hard’.
Q.20. The avoidance of taxes is (a)/ only intellectual pursuit in the world (b)/ that still not being rewarded by anyone. (c)/ No error (d)
Ans. b
Sol. Use ‘the only’ – in place of – ‘only’. The very word ‘only’ is used here as an adjective. When ‘only’ is used as an adjective, the definite article ‘the’ is used with it. When we use ‘only’ as an adverb, then, no article is needed with it.
