    They______ clean drinking water for the party.

    • Provide

    • Prepare

    Correct Answer
    A. Provide
    Explanation
    The word "provide" is the correct answer because it means to supply or make available something that is needed or desired. In this context, "provide" suggests that they will make sure there is clean drinking water available for the party, indicating that they will make arrangements to ensure that the guests have access to clean water.

    As the car passed, it________the rainwater

    • Spattered

    • Shook

    Correct Answer
    A. Spattered
    Explanation
    When a car passes through rainwater, it tends to cause the water to splash or scatter in different directions. The word "spattered" accurately describes this action, as it means to scatter or splash small particles of a liquid. "Shook" does not accurately convey the action of the car passing through the rainwater.

    • Runs forward

    Correct Answer
    A. Increases to
    Explanation
    The phrase "soars past 105 F" implies a significant and rapid increase in temperature. Therefore, the correct answer is "increases to," as it accurately conveys the idea of the temperature rising above 105 F.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    People___ the monsoon.

    • Welcome

    • Envy

    Correct Answer
    A. Welcome
    Explanation
    During the monsoon season, people generally welcome it. The word "welcome" implies that people are happy and receptive towards the arrival of the monsoon. This suggests that they appreciate the benefits that the monsoon brings, such as relief from the heat, replenishment of water resources, and the growth of crops. On the other hand, the word "envy" does not fit in the context of the sentence as it implies a feeling of jealousy or resentment, which is not typically associated with the monsoon.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    There will be an exodus because of the lack of water.

    • Mass departure of people

    • An exciting argument

    • An end to life

    • A great famine

    Correct Answer
    A. Mass departure of people
    Explanation
    The given correct answer, "mass departure of people," is supported by the statement "There will be an exodus because of the lack of water." This suggests that a large number of people will leave or migrate from their current location due to the scarcity of water. The term "exodus" implies a significant movement or departure of people, reinforcing the idea that the lack of water will lead to a mass departure of individuals.

    • Waste

    • Save

    Correct Answer
    A. Waste
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "waste" because the sentence is stating that the people of Cherrapunji waste rainwater. This implies that they do not use or conserve the rainwater, but instead let it go to waste.

    Rate this question:

  • 8.

    • Space for heating solids

    • Cooking area

    • Fire cracker

    • Exploding bomb

    Correct Answer
    A. Space for heating solids
    Explanation
    The given correct answer for this question is "space for heating solids". This answer is likely referring to the comparison between an Indian summer and a blast furnace. Just like a blast furnace is used for heating solids, an Indian summer is being described as intense and hot, similar to the extreme heat generated in a space used for heating solids.

    • Sending someone away

    • Forcing someone to do something

    • Providing footwear

    • Silencing someone

    Correct Answer
    A. Sending someone away
    Explanation
    The phrase "We keep shooing them away to find water" implies that the speaker is repeatedly making someone leave in order to search for water. This aligns with the meaning of "sending someone away", as it involves asking or forcing someone to leave a particular place or situation. Therefore, the correct answer is "sending someone away".

    Rate this question:

    The given options describe different actions or changes happening to something. Out of these options, "suddenly starts" is the only one that accurately represents an action beginning abruptly or unexpectedly. The other options, such as "melts into liquid," "disappears quickly," and "grows weaker," do not convey the idea of something starting suddenly.
