  • 2. 

    Which sentence is in the present perfect tense?

    • I play tennis every week.

    • I played tennis yesterday.

    • I have played tennis before.

    • I will play tennis tomorrow.

    Correct Answer
    A. I have played tennis before.
    Explanation
    The present perfect tense is used to talk about actions or experiences that happened at an unspecified time in the past. The sentence "I have played tennis before" uses this tense to indicate the speaker has the experience of playing tennis, but doesn't specify when it happened.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    Choose the correct word to complete the sentence: "The film was so ____ that I fell asleep."

    • Bored

    • Boring

    • Bore

    • Boringly

    Correct Answer
    A. Boring
    Explanation
    The word "boring" is the correct adjective to describe the film because it caused the feeling of boredom in the person watching it. "-ing" adjectives describe the characteristics of something that cause a feeling, while "-ed" adjectives describe the feeling itself. So, a "boring" film makes a person feel "bored."

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    What is the past participle of the verb "eat"?

    • Eat

    • Eated

    • Ate

    • Eaten

    Correct Answer
    A. Eaten
    Explanation
    "Eaten" is the past participle of the verb "eat." Past participles are used with auxiliary verbs like "have" to form perfect tenses. In this case, "eaten" combines with "have" to create the present perfect tense, which describes actions that happened at an unspecified time in the past.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    Choose the correct word order:

    • Always I am on time.

    • I always am on time.

    • I am always on time.

    • Am I always on time

    Correct Answer
    A. I am always on time.
    Explanation
    In English, adverbs of frequency like "always," "usually," or "often" are typically placed before the main verb in a sentence. Therefore, "I am always on time" is the correct word order, with the adverb "always" preceding the verb "am."

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    Which word is an adjective?

    • Quickly

    • Beautiful

    • Run

    • Table

    Correct Answer
    A. Beautiful
    Explanation
    An adjective is a word that describes a noun. In this case, "beautiful" is the adjective as it describes the appearance of a noun. The other options are an adverb ("quickly"), a verb ("run"), and a noun ("table").

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    What is the comparative form of the adjective "good"?

    • Gooder

    • More good

    • Better

    • Best

    Correct Answer
    A. Better
    Explanation
    When comparing two things, we use the comparative form of adjectives. The comparative form of "good" is irregular and is "better." "Gooder" is not a grammatically correct word, "more good" is not the standard comparative form, and "best" is the superlative form used when comparing three or more things.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    Which word is a synonym for "happy"?

    • Sad

    • Angry

    • Cheerful

    • Tired

    Correct Answer
    A. Cheerful
    Explanation
    "Cheerful" is the most suitable synonym for "happy" as it implies a feeling of joy and good spirits. While other words might have positive connotations, "cheerful" most accurately captures the essence of happiness.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    Choose the correct preposition to complete the sentence: "I'm looking forward ____ my holiday."

    • To

    • At

    • In

    • On

    Correct Answer
    A. To
    Explanation
    The preposition "to" is used with the phrase "look forward to," which expresses excitement or anticipation about a future event. This preposition indicates the direction of one's anticipation towards the object of the phrase, in this case, the holiday.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    What is the opposite of "noisy"?

    • Quiet

    • Loud

    • Busy

    • Crowded

    Correct Answer
    A. Quiet
    Explanation
    "Quiet" is the direct opposite of "noisy." While "noisy" implies a lot of sound, "quiet" suggests an absence or near absence of sound. The other options, although potentially related to noise levels in certain contexts, are not direct antonyms of "noisy."
