      Should have

    • C. 

      Must have

    Correct Answer
    B. Should have
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "should have." This is because the sentence suggests that the person made a poor decision by choosing to drink instead of staying at home and studying. Using "should have" implies that it would have been the better or more responsible choice to stay at home and study.

    Correct Answer
    C. Much
    Explanation
    The word "much" is the correct answer because it is used to refer to an uncountable noun like money. In this question, it is asking about the amount of money in someone's pocket, which is not something that can be counted individually. Therefore, "much" is the appropriate word to use in this context.

      To

    Correct Answer

      Crawling

    • C. 

      Crawl

    Correct Answer
    C. Crawl

    The correct answer is "crawl" because it is used to describe the action of the germs on the tables in the library. The verb "crawl" suggests that the germs are moving slowly and steadily, which aligns with the idea that they have escaped in the hot breath of hardworking students and are now slowly spreading on the tables.

      A

    • C. 

      Some

    Correct Answer
    C. Some
    Explanation
    The word "some" is the correct answer because it is used when offering or requesting an unspecified or indefinite quantity of something. In this case, it is used to ask if the person would like an indefinite quantity of tea. The other options, "any" and "a", do not convey the same meaning and are not appropriate in this context.

      Hope

    • C. 

      Are hoping

      In

    • C. 

      Is coming

    • D. 

      Are coming

    Correct Answer
    B. Come
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "come" because the subject "committee" is a collective noun that is treated as a singular entity. Therefore, the verb should agree with the singular form "comes" rather than the plural form "come."

    Rate this question:

  • 19. 

    The shop is at the end of this street _____ the right.

    • A. 

      At

      In

    • C. 

      On

    Correct Answer
    C. On
    Explanation

      At - opposite to

    Correct Answer

      --

    • D. 

      Any

    Correct Answer
    C. --

    Rate this question:

  • 22. 

    I don’t have ________ money to lend you.

    • A. 

      Some

    • B. 

      Any

    • C. 

      A

    Correct Answer
    B. Any
    Explanation
    The sentence is expressing a lack of money available for lending. The word "any" is used to indicate that there is no amount of money available. The word "some" would imply that there is at least a small amount of money available, which contradicts the intended meaning of the sentence. The word "a" is not appropriate in this context as it does not convey the idea of a lack of money. Therefore, the correct answer is "any."

    Rate this question:

  • 23. 

    I _________ to Paris three years ago.

    • A. 

      Went

      Has gone

    • C. 

      Have gone

    • D. 

      Gone

    Correct Answer
    A. Went
    Explanation
    The verb "went" is the correct answer because it is the simple past tense form of the verb "go". In the given sentence, the action of going to Paris happened three years ago, indicating a completed action in the past. Therefore, "went" is the appropriate choice to express this past event.

    Rate this question:

    Choose the correctly written statement.

    • A. 

      Do you like some Chinese food? I can prepare a dish for you.

    • B. 

      Will you like some Chinese food? I can prepare a dish for you.

    • C. 

      Would you like some Chinese food? I can prepare a dish for you.

    Correct Answer
    C. Would you like some Chinese food? I can prepare a dish for you.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Would you like some Chinese food? I can prepare a dish for you." This is the correct form of the question to ask someone if they would like Chinese food. The use of "would" indicates a polite request or offer, while "like" is used to ask about someone's preference. The statement also includes the offer to prepare a dish, which shows willingness to accommodate the person's preference.

    Rate this question:

  • 25. 

    He speaks English very _______.

    • A. 

      Fluent

    • B. 

      Well

    • C. 

      Nice

    Correct Answer
    B. Well
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "well" because it is the appropriate adverb to describe someone's ability to speak English. Saying "He speaks English very fluent" or "He speaks English very nice" would be grammatically incorrect. "Well" is the correct adverb to describe proficiency in speaking a language.

    Rate this question:

  • 26. 

    Choose the correct option.

    • A. 

      This is hand-made; we have not used any equipment.

    • B. 

      This is hand-made; we have not used any equipments.

    • C. 

      This is hand-made; we have not used an equipment.

    Correct Answer
    A. This is hand-made; we have not used any equipment.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "This is hand-made; we have not used any equipment." The word "equipment" is already plural, so there is no need to add an "s" at the end. Additionally, the correct article to use with "equipment" is "any" rather than "an."

    Rate this question:

  • 27. 

    Choose the correct option.

    • A. 

      We’ll going to have a meeting.

    • B. 

      We’ll going to having a meeting.

    • C. 

      We’re going to have a meeting.

    Correct Answer
    C. We’re going to have a meeting.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "We're going to have a meeting." This sentence is grammatically correct and uses the appropriate verb form "going to" to express a future action. The other options "We'll going to have a meeting" and "We'll going to having a meeting" are incorrect because they do not use the correct verb form and have errors in sentence structure.

    Rate this question:

  • 28. 

    Choose the correct option.

    • A. 

      His arrival created a great deal of confusion.

    • B. 

      His arrival created a great deal of confusions.

    • C. 

      His arrival created many confusion.

    • D. 

      His arrival created many confusions.

    Correct Answer
    A. His arrival created a great deal of confusion.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "His arrival created a great deal of confusion." This is because the phrase "a great deal of" is used to express a large amount or quantity of something, in this case, confusion. The phrase is followed by the singular noun "confusion" which agrees with the singular verb "created."

    Rate this question:

  • 29. 

    Choose the correct option.

    • A. 

      I didn’t do much paperwork today.

    • B. 

      I didn’t do many paperwork today.

    • C. 

      I didn’t do much paperworks to today.

    Correct Answer
    A. I didn’t do much paperwork today.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "I didn’t do much paperwork today." This is because "paperwork" is an uncountable noun, so it does not have a plural form. Therefore, we use "much" instead of "many" to indicate a large quantity of paperwork. Additionally, the sentence should not include the word "to."

    Rate this question:

  • 30. 

    Choose the correct option.

    • A. 

      Did he sent his proposal last night?

    • B. 

      Did he send his proposal last night?

    • C. 

      Has he sent his proposal last night?

    Correct Answer
    B. Did he send his proposal last night?
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Did he send his proposal last night?" This is the correct option because it uses the past tense form of the verb "send" (sent) and the auxiliary verb "did" to form the interrogative past simple tense. The other options are grammatically incorrect because they either use the wrong verb tense (sent instead of send) or the wrong auxiliary verb (has instead of did).

    Rate this question:

  • 31. 

    Choose the correct option.

    • A. 

      An engineer can take on the whole planning.

    • B. 

      An engineer can be able to take on the whole planning.

    • C. 

      An engineer can able to take on the whole planning.

    Correct Answer
    A. An engineer can take on the whole planning.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "An engineer can take on the whole planning." This sentence is grammatically correct and conveys the idea that an engineer is capable of handling the entire planning process. The other options contain errors in their phrasing, such as using "can able to" which is redundant and grammatically incorrect.

    Rate this question:

  • 32. 

    Choose the correct option.

    • B. 

      These days Filipinos find better career options at home than in the United States.

    • C. 

      These days Filipinos find better career options on home than in the United States.

    Correct Answer
    B. These days Filipinos find better career options at home than in the United States.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "These days Filipinos find better career options at home than in the United States." This answer is grammatically correct and uses the preposition "at" to indicate the location of the better career options for Filipinos. The use of "in" before the United States is also grammatically correct as it indicates the location where the career options are not as good.

      The Church is besides the petrol station.

    Correct Answer
    B. The Church is across the petrol station.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "The Church is across the petrol station." This means that the Church is located on the other side of the petrol station, indicating a position directly opposite to it.

    • B. 

      On Christmas, people imbibe the spirit of giving and sharing.

    • C. 

      In Christmas, people imbibe the spirit of giving and sharing.

    Correct Answer
    A. At Christmas, people imbibe the spirit of giving and sharing.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "At Christmas, people imbibe the spirit of giving and sharing." This option is correct because it uses the preposition "at" to indicate a specific time or period, which is appropriate for referring to Christmas. The other options, "On Christmas" and "In Christmas," are not grammatically correct and do not accurately convey the meaning of the sentence.

      I’m needing to gather some information before I can continue.

    Correct Answer
    A. I need to gather some information before I can continue.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "I need to gather some information before I can continue." This sentence is grammatically correct and uses the correct verb form "need" in the present tense. The other options, "I'll be needing" and "I'm needing," use incorrect verb forms and are not grammatically accurate.

    Correct Answer
    A. I am learning Spanish via the BSL program.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "I am learning Spanish via the BSL program." This answer is correct because it uses the correct article "the" before "BSL program." The other options either use the incorrect article "the Spanish" or omit the article altogether.

    Choose the correct option.

    • A. 

      "Any man who reads too much and uses his own brain too little falls into lazy habits of thinking."

    • B. 

      "Any man who has been reading too much and uses his own brain too little falls into lazy habits of thinking."

    • C. 

      “Any man who is reading too much and uses his own brain too little is falling into lazy habits of thinking."

    Correct Answer
    A. "Any man who reads too much and uses his own brain too little falls into lazy habits of thinking."
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Any man who reads too much and uses his own brain too little falls into lazy habits of thinking." This is because the sentence is written in the present simple tense, indicating a general truth or habitual action. The use of "reads" and "falls" in the present tense suggests that it is a statement about a universal truth, rather than a specific event or past action.

    • C. 

      While on a call, an agent has been communicating via tone and words.

    Correct Answer
    B. While on a call an agent communicates via tone and words.
    Explanation
    The correct option is "While on a call an agent communicates via tone and words." This option is grammatically correct and effectively conveys the idea that during a phone conversation, an agent uses both their tone of voice and the words they speak to communicate. The other options either use incorrect verb tenses or unnecessary verb phrases, making them less accurate and concise.

    Rate this question:

  • 39. 

    Choose the correct option.

    • B. 

      I finished work on one project and I am starting a new one tomorrow.

    • C. 

      I finish work on one project and I start a new one tomorrow.

    Correct Answer
    A. I have finished work on one project and I'm starting a new one tomorrow.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "I have finished work on one project and I'm starting a new one tomorrow." This is the correct answer because the sentence is talking about a completed action in the past (finishing work on one project) and a future action (starting a new one tomorrow). The use of the present perfect tense ("have finished") indicates that the action of finishing the project is completed, and the use of the present continuous tense ("I'm starting") indicates a planned future action.

      I was breaking up with my girlfriend lately.

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "I have broken up with my girlfriend lately." This is because the phrase "lately" indicates that the breakup occurred recently, and the present perfect tense "have broken up" is used to describe an action that happened in the past but has a connection to the present.

    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Last year I travelled on a cruise to the Caribbean." This sentence is grammatically correct and uses the correct preposition "on" to indicate the mode of transportation (cruise). The verb "travelled" is in the past tense, which is appropriate for a past event (last year). The use of "in" instead of "on" in the other options is incorrect and would not convey the intended meaning. The use of "have travelled" in the other options is also incorrect because it implies a present perfect tense, which is not suitable for referring to a specific past event.

    • A. 

      I had waited for two hours at the station before you came!

    • B. 

      I have been waiting for two hours at the station before you came!

    • C. 

      I am waiting for two hours at the station before you came.

    Correct Answer
    A. I had waited for two hours at the station before you came!
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "I had waited for two hours at the station before you came!" This is the correct option because it uses the past perfect tense ("had waited") to indicate that the waiting occurred before the arrival of the person being addressed. The use of "before you came" further emphasizes the sequence of events, with the waiting happening first. The other options ("I have been waiting" and "I am waiting") do not accurately convey the past tense and the correct sequence of events.

      Mother: “Help your brother finish his homework.” Son: “I have been helping him later.”

    Correct Answer
    B. Mother: “Help your brother finish his homework.” Son: “I will help him later.”
    Explanation
    The correct answer is the second option: Mother: “Help your brother finish his homework.” Son: “I will help him later.” This is the correct answer because the mother is asking the son to help his brother with his homework, and the son acknowledges that he will help him later, indicating that he will fulfill his mother's request at a later time.

    Correct Answer
    B. You will receive a call at 12 pm.
    Explanation
    Both "12 noon" and "12 pm" refer to the same time, which is midday or 12 o'clock in the afternoon. The abbreviation "pm" stands for "post meridiem," which is Latin for "afternoon." Therefore, both options are correct and indicate that the call will be received at midday.

    Correct Answer
    B. “Could you drop in on me before you go?”
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Could you drop in on me before you go?" because the phrase "drop in on" means to visit someone briefly and informally. The other options ("drop in at me" and "drop in by my office") do not use the correct preposition and do not convey the same meaning.
