    Explanation
    The correct answer is "Come" because it is the only option that matches the tense of the sentence.

    Explanation

    • On

    Correct Answer
    A. Up
    Explanation
    The word "up" in this context means to improve or progress. The phrase "going to become a great actress" implies that the person is currently not a great actress but has the potential to be one in the future. Therefore, the word "up" suggests that the person's acting skills will improve and they will achieve their goal of becoming a great actress.

    Correct Answer
    A. At all
    Explanation
    The phrase "at all" is the correct answer because it fits logically in the sentence. The speaker states that they don't like the person because she is a liar. The phrase "at all" emphasizes the speaker's strong dislike for the person, indicating that they have absolutely no liking or tolerance for her.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    Who's this lady sitting next ....................?

    • Me

    • From me

    • To me

    • With me

    Correct Answer
    A. To me
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "to me." This is because the phrase "sitting next to me" indicates that the lady is sitting in close proximity to the speaker. The preposition "to" is used to show direction or movement towards a specific person or thing, in this case, the speaker. Therefore, the lady is sitting next to the speaker.

    • High

    • Too higher

    Correct Answer
    A. Leave
    Explanation
    The word "leave" is the correct answer because it is the only option that fits the context of the given statement. The phrase "Leave me alone! I don't want to talk to you!" suggests a desire for solitude and a request to be left alone. The other options, "live," "left," and "leaf," do not convey the same meaning and are not appropriate in this context.

    • Fly

    • Sitting

    A. Shouldn't
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "shouldn't". This is because the sentence is expressing a negative opinion about drinking fizzy drinks, indicating that it is not a healthy choice. "Shouldn't" is the appropriate word to use in this context to convey the idea of advice or recommendation against doing something.

    • In

    • On

    • At

    • Inn

    Correct Answer

    • Works

    • Work

    • Job

    Correct Answer
    A. Do
    Explanation

    • Bad

    • A worse

    • The worst

    Correct Answer

  • 24. 

    He likes burgers, ............?

    • Likes he

    • Don't he

    • Doesn't he

    • Didn't he

    Correct Answer
    A. Doesn't he
    Explanation
    The given question is an incomplete sentence that suggests a statement about someone's preference for burgers. The correct answer "doesn't he" is used to form a tag question, which is a statement followed by a short question that seeks confirmation or agreement. In this case, the tag question is formed by using the auxiliary verb "does" in the negative form ("doesn't") and inverting the subject and verb ("he" and "like"). Therefore, the correct answer implies that the person being referred to likes burgers, and the tag question seeks confirmation from the listener.

    Correct Answer
    A. Went
    Explanation
    Yesterday I went to the shop and I bought only apples. The verb "went" is the past tense of the verb "go" and is used to indicate an action that happened in the past. In this sentence, the speaker is referring to an action that occurred yesterday, so "went" is the correct past tense form of the verb to use in this context.

    Rate this question:

    A. Paid
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "paid" because it is the past tense form of the verb "pay." The sentence is in the past tense ("I bought this T-shirt yesterday"), so the verb should also be in the past tense. Additionally, "paid" is the appropriate verb to use when referring to giving money in exchange for something.

    • Saw her

    • Sea her

    • See her

    Correct Answer
    A. See her
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "see her". This is because the sentence is in the future tense, indicated by the use of "will". The phrase "I will let you know" suggests that the speaker plans to inform the listener about something in the future. Therefore, the appropriate verb form to use in this context is "see", indicating that the speaker will see the person in question and then inform the listener.

    Rate this question:

    Can you .................. this noise?

    • Listen

    • Listen to

    • Heard

    • Hear

    Correct Answer
    A. Hear
    Explanation
    This question is asking for a verb that means to perceive or be aware of a noise. The word "hear" is the correct answer because it directly matches this definition. "Listen" and "listen to" are also related to perceiving sound, but they imply a more intentional or focused act of paying attention to the noise. "Heard" is the past tense of "hear" and does not fit the grammatical structure of the question. Therefore, "hear" is the most appropriate answer.

    The correct answer is "recipe". In the given sentence, the speaker is complimenting the taste of the cake and then asking for the information about what makes the cake taste great. A recipe is a set of instructions that tells you how to make a particular dish, so it is the most logical answer in this context.
