1. Which word best fits in the sentence? (Present Tense). “No news ____ good news.”

Explanation

In the sentence "No news is good news," the verb "is" is the correct choice. This is because "news" is a singular noun, so it requires a singular verb form. In the present tense, the singular form of the verb "to be" is "is." Therefore, "is" is the best word to fit in the sentence.

12. Fill in the blank with the correct answer.
If she _____ about his financial situation, she would have helped him out.

Explanation

The correct answer is "had known". This is because the sentence is in the past unreal conditional form, indicating a hypothetical situation in the past. The use of "had known" suggests that she did not actually know about his financial situation in the past, which is why she did not help him out.

Submit
13. Which sentence is CORRECT?

Explanation

The correct answer is "My first job in a factory involved the manufacture of escalator handles and ketchup bottle lids."

Submit
14. I don’t expect to be home until after _____ call until after that time.

Explanation

The correct answer is "6:30; don't". This is because the semicolon is used to separate two independent clauses, indicating a stronger pause than a comma. Additionally, the word "don't" is used instead of "do not" to maintain parallelism and conciseness in the sentence.

Submit
