English Grammar Solution

S1. Ans.(c)
Sol. The correct answer is option c.
Replace ‘Best’ with ‘Better’ to make the sentence grammatically and contextually correct.
Comparative adjectives are used to compare differences between the two objects they modify (larger, smaller, faster, higher). They are used in sentences where two nouns are compared, in this pattern.
Noun (subject) + verb + comparative adjective + than + noun (object).
In the given sentence, comparison is being made between two nouns (YOU AND I) hence, usage of the comparative form ‘Better’ is appropriate.

S2. Ans.(a)
Sol. The correct answer is option a.
Flotilla – A small fleet of ships or boats.
Herd – A group of cattle or sheep or other domestic mammals
Shoal – A large number of fish swimming together
Brood – A family of young animals
Option (a) portrays the same meaning as that of the given group of words & hence it is the correct choice.

S3. Ans.(b)
Sol. The correct answer is option b.
Innate – existing in, belonging to, or determined by factors present in an individual from birth.
Synonyms – inborn, inherent, integral, intrinsic, native, natural
Antonyms – adventitious, extraneous, extrinsic

S4. Ans.(c)
Sol. The correct answer is option c.
Dubious – not to be relied upon; suspect.
Synonyms – distrustful, doubtful, suspicious, unsettled, unsure
Antonyms – assured, confident, determined, resolute, certain, convinced.

S5. Ans.(d)
Sol. The correct answer is option d.
Alien – not familiar or like other things you have known: different from what you are used to.
Synonyms – foreigner, outsider, stranger
Antonyms – native, familiar, friend, associate, companion, fellow, habitant, resident

S6. Ans.(b)
Sol. The correct answer is option b.
The words that can be filled in the blanks are `Who, Noticed.’
Who – It is a subject pronoun, meaning it is used in a sentence or clause as a subject. (The subject of a sentence is the one doing the action.)
Who – It can also be used as a relative clause, often used to refer back to someone in a sentence, or to refer to a group of people or animals.
For example – My aunty, who was a tall woman, was a brilliant bridge player.
Whom – It is an object pronoun, defined as the objective case of ‘Who’.
For example -The agent with whom I spoke was able to help me.
Whose – It is a possessive pronoun.
For example – A snake whose skin sheds annually.
Which – Which introduces non-defining clauses. Non-defining relative clauses (also known as non-restrictive) provide some additional information that is not essential and may be omitted without affecting the contents of the sentence.
For example – My bike, which has a broken seat, is in the garage.
We also use ‘which’ in relative clauses to refer to animals and to things.

S7. Ans.(b)
Sol. The correct answer is option b.
A man of straw – It is an idiomatic expression which means, ‘A weak person’.
Option (b) portrays the same meaning as that of the given idiom & hence it is the correct
choice.

S8. Ans.(c)
Sol. The correct answer is option c.
Replace ‘Landing, he was rushed’ with ‘Landed, he was rushed’ to make the sentence grammatically correct.
We use ‘As soon as’ to show that something happens immediately, i.e., ‘at the very moment another action is completed’, or ‘shortly after another action is completed’.

S9. Ans.(b)
Sol. The correct answer is option b.
Consent – to give or express one’s approval (as to a proposal).
Synonyms – agree, assent, allow, sanction
Antonyms – refuse, reject, forbid, prohibit

S10. Ans.(a)
Sol. The correct answer is option a.
Agenda – A list of items to be discussed at a formal meeting.
Extempore – A speech delivered without any previous preparation
Memo – A usually brief written message or report
Premise – An idea or theory on which a statement or action is based
Option (a) portrays the same meaning as that of the given group of words & hence it is the correct choice.
