    • Is trying

    • Tries

    • Try

    • Tried

    Correct Answer

    Identify correct one for this sentence - You need not come unless you want to.​ - ProProfs

    Identify correct one for this sentence - You need not come unless you want to.​

    • You come unless you don't want to

    • You needn't come until you don't want to

    • You don't need to come unless you want to

    Correct Answer
    A. You don't need to come unless you want to
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "You don't need to come unless you want to." This option accurately conveys the meaning of the original sentence. It implies that coming is not necessary unless there is a desire or willingness to do so. The other options either change the meaning or introduce unnecessary elements into the sentence.

    Are you attending _____ reception today?​ - ProProfs

    Are you attending _____ reception today?​

    • A

    • The

    • An

    Correct Answer
    A. The
    Explanation
    In this question, the correct answer is "The". The word "reception" is a specific event or gathering, so we use "the" before it to indicate that we are referring to a particular reception. "An" is used before a singular noun when it is not specified or known which one is being referred to, but in this case, we are talking about a specific reception that the person is attending.

    • Leaves the train?

    • Does the train leave?

    • Is the train leaving?

    Correct Answer
    A. Does the train leave?
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "does the train leave?" because it follows the correct structure of a question in English. In this sentence, the subject "the train" is followed by the helping verb "does" and then the main verb "leave." This structure is used when asking about a specific action or event.

    • In

    • On

    Correct Answer
    A. On
    Explanation
    The preposition in this sentence is "on". It is used to indicate the relationship between the action of using electronic devices and the location of airplanes. The sentence states that people are prohibited from using electronic devices on airplanes, suggesting that the action is not allowed while on board the aircraft.

    Identify the correct sentence type. ​If you work hard, you will succeed in Life.​ - ProProfs

    Identify the correct sentence type. ​If you work hard, you will succeed in Life.​

    • Simple

    • Complex

    • Compound

    Correct Answer
    A. Complex
    Explanation
    The given sentence is a complex sentence because it consists of an independent clause "If you work hard" and a dependent clause "you will succeed in Life." The dependent clause cannot stand alone as a complete sentence and relies on the independent clause for its meaning. The use of the subordinating conjunction "if" introduces a condition that is necessary for the outcome stated in the dependent clause to occur.

    Is this sentence grammatically correct? It was snowing last Wednesday school was shut down. - ProProfs

    Is this sentence grammatically correct? It was snowing last Wednesday school was shut down.

    • Yes

    • No

    • Wednesday is spelled incorrectly

    Correct Answer
    A. Yes
    Explanation
    The given sentence is grammatically correct. It uses the past tense "was snowing" to describe an action that occurred last Wednesday. The conjunction "and" is missing between "Wednesday" and "school," but this does not affect the grammatical correctness of the sentence. The spelling of "Wednesday" is not relevant to the sentence's grammatical correctness.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 
    ____________ it until you  _____________ it. - ProProfs

    ____________ it until you  _____________ it.

    • Fake, Make

    • Think, Believe

    • Fake, Become

    Correct Answer
    A. Fake, Become
    Explanation
    The phrase "Fake it until you make it" means pretending to be confident or successful until you actually become confident or successful. By faking confidence or success, one can gradually develop the necessary skills, mindset, or opportunities to actually achieve their goals. Therefore, the correct answer is "Fake, Become" as it accurately represents the meaning of the phrase.
