Explanation

The correct answer is "to take" because the phrase "advised me" indicates that the doctor is giving a recommendation or suggestion.

3. I __________ to be picking Tom up at the station but I've lost my keys.

Explanation

The correct answer is "am supposed". In this sentence, the speaker had a plan or expectation to pick Tom up at the station. However, they are unable to do so because they have lost their keys. "Am supposed" implies that there was an expectation or responsibility for the speaker to pick Tom up, but circumstances prevented them from fulfilling it.

4. If all Bloops are Razzies and all Razzies are Lazzies, then all Bloops are definitely Lazzies?

Explanation

This is an example of a valid logical deduction known as the transitive property. If all Bloops are Razzies (Bloops → Razzies) and all Razzies are Lazzies (Razzies → Lazzies), then it follows that all Bloops are Lazzies (Bloops → Lazzies). Therefore, the statement "all Bloops are definitely Lazzies" is true.

Submit
5. How about going to Colors nightclub? There's no__________ I'm going there. It's awful!

Explanation

The speaker states that there is no way they are going to Colors nightclub because they find it awful. This suggests that the word "way" is the correct answer as it fits logically in the context of the sentence. The other options, such as hope, time, and opportunity, do not make sense in this context and do not provide a suitable explanation for the speaker's statement.

Submit
6. We've __________ come back from a trip to India. It was amazing.

Explanation

The word "just" is the correct answer because it indicates that the speaker has recently returned from a trip to India. It implies that the trip has just ended and emphasizes the freshness of the experience. The other options, "already," "yet," and "only," do not convey the same meaning of recentness and do not fit in the context of the sentence.

Submit
7. 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 13, 21- Which one doesn't belong to this series?

Explanation

The given series follows the Fibonacci sequence, where each number is the sum of the two preceding ones. Starting with 1 and 1, the next number is 2, then 3, and so on. However, the number 4 does not fit this pattern as it is not the sum of the two preceding numbers (2 and 3). Therefore, 4 does not belong to this series.

Submit
8. 2, 10, 12, 60, 62, 310… What is next?

Explanation

The pattern in the given sequence is that each number is obtained by multiplying the previous number by 5 and adding 2. For example, 2 * 5 + 2 = 12, 12 * 5 + 2 = 62, and so on. Applying the same pattern, the next number would be 310 * 5 + 2 = 1552. However, since this option is not available, the closest number that follows the pattern is 310 * 5 + 2 = 1552. Therefore, the next number in the sequence is 312.

Submit
9. 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64….What is next?

Explanation

The pattern in the given sequence is that each number is being multiplied by 2 to get the next number. Starting with 2, each subsequent number is obtained by multiplying the previous number by 2. Therefore, the next number in the sequence would be 64 * 2 = 128.

Submit
10. Shall we go to The Riceboat for dinner. It __________be fully booked. They're sometimes busy on a Monday.

Explanation

The correct answer is "may" because the sentence suggests that The Riceboat restaurant could possibly be fully booked for dinner. The use of "may" indicates a possibility or uncertainty, which aligns with the statement that they are sometimes busy on a Monday.

Submit
11. 29, 27, 24, 20, 15…..what is next?

Explanation

The given sequence is decreasing by a certain number each time. The first number is 29, and then it decreases by 2 to get 27. Then it decreases by 3 to get 24, then by 4 to get 20, and finally by 5 to get 15. Therefore, the next number in the sequence should decrease by 6, resulting in 9.

Submit
12. There are 10 people at a party. 3 leave and 2 fall asleep. How many people are left?

Explanation

After 3 people leave the party, there are still 7 people remaining. Even though 2 people fall asleep, they are still physically present at the party. Therefore, the total number of people left is 7.

Submit
13. Mary, who is sixteen years old, is four times as old as her brother. How old will Mary be when she is twice as old as her brother?

Explanation

Mary is currently 16 years old and four times as old as her brother. This means her brother is 16/4 = 4 years old. To find out when Mary will be twice as old as her brother, we need to determine the age gap between them. Currently, the age gap is 16-4 = 12 years. Since Mary is currently 16, she will be twice as old as her brother when she is 16+12 = 28 years old. Therefore, Mary will be 24 years old when she is twice as old as her brother.

Submit
14. I've got a terrible headache, and it won't go away. Have you tried __________ some aspirin?

Explanation

The question is asking for a suggestion on how to relieve a terrible headache. The correct answer, "taking," is the present participle form of the verb "take." This suggests that the person should try the action of taking some aspirin to alleviate the headache.

Submit
15. Julia __________ married since she was 20.

Explanation

The correct answer is "has been". This is because the sentence is talking about an action that started in the past (when Julia was 20) and is still continuing in the present. "Has been" is the present perfect tense, which is used to talk about actions that started in the past and have a connection to the present.

Submit
16. __________outside the cinema when suddenly a police car arrived.

Explanation

The correct answer is "was standing". This is because the sentence is describing an ongoing action in the past. The past continuous tense is used to indicate this, and "was standing" is the correct form of the verb "to stand" in the past continuous tense.

Submit
17. There's no name on this dictionary. It __________be mine then. Mine's got my name on the front.

Explanation

The speaker states that there is no name on the dictionary, which suggests that it cannot be theirs since their dictionary has their name on it. Therefore, the correct answer is "can't," as it indicates that it is impossible for the dictionary to belong to the speaker.

Submit
18. I'm afraid your car __________ repaired before next week.

Explanation

The correct answer is "can't be" because it indicates that it is not possible for the car to be repaired before next week. This implies that there are certain constraints or limitations preventing the repair from happening within the specified time frame.

Submit

Submit
20. I've got to be at work in five minutes. Don't worry, I __________you a lift if you want.

The correct answer is "put." In the sentence, the speaker is expressing their inability to tolerate or handle the noise in the city.
