  • 2. 

    In life ___________ can make a mistake; we’re all human.

    • Anyone

    • Some people

    • Not anybody

    • Someone

    Correct Answer
    A. Anyone
    Explanation
    The statement implies that everyone has the potential to make a mistake because we are all human. The word "anyone" accurately conveys this idea as it refers to any person, emphasizing that no one is exempt from making mistakes. The other options, such as "some people" or "someone," may imply that only certain individuals are prone to making mistakes, which does not align with the given statement. "Not anybody" is not a suitable option as it suggests that nobody can make a mistake, contradicting the initial statement.

    • Is 

    • Was 

    • Had 

    • Has been 

    Correct Answer
    A. Was 
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "was". This is because the sentence is referring to a specific point in the past when the girlfriend was born. The past tense form "was" is used to indicate an action or state that occurred at a specific time in the past.

    • Do

    • Is

    •  work

    • Does

    Correct Answer
    A. Does
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "does". In this sentence, the subject "my wife" is singular, so we need to use the singular form of the verb "do". Therefore, the correct sentence is "I work as a teacher and my wife does too."

    • She's

    Correct Answer
    A. She's a
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "she's a." The question is asking for an explanation for the given statement "I think _________taxi driver." The statement is incomplete, but based on the options provided, "she's a" seems to be the most logical completion. This suggests that the person believes the subject of the conversation is a taxi driver.

    The word "seldom" means rarely or not often. Therefore, the correct answer suggests that the subject does not go to the cinema often or rarely goes to the cinema.

    A. Ought
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "ought". "Ought" is used to express a moral obligation or duty. In this context, the speaker is aware that there is a requirement or expectation for her to pay now. Therefore, "ought" is the most appropriate choice to convey this sense of obligation.

    • Go

    • Go

    • Was

    • Went

    Correct Answer
    A. Go
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "go". This is because the question is asking about an action that was done in the past, and "go" is the past tense form of the verb "go".

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    I'll return the newspaper when I ……… through it.

    • Will have looked

    • Looked

    • Have looked

    • Look

    Correct Answer
    A. Have looked
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "have looked" because it is the correct verb tense to use in this sentence. The phrase "I'll return the newspaper" indicates a future action, and the phrase "when I have looked through it" suggests that the action of looking through the newspaper will be completed before the return. Therefore, the present perfect tense "have looked" is the appropriate choice.
