    • Take

    • Taking

    • Having taken

    • To take

    Correct Answer
    A. To take
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "to take" because the phrase "advised me" indicates that the doctor is giving a recommendation or suggestion. In this case, the doctor is advising the person to take more medication. The phrase "to take" is the infinitive form of the verb and is commonly used after the verb "advise" to indicate the action that is being recommended.

  • 3. 

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

    • Am supposed

    • Am requested

    • Am intended

    • Am obliged

    Correct Answer
    A. Am supposed
    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.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

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

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    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.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

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

    • Hope

    • Way

    • Time

    • Oppurtunity

    Correct Answer
    A. Way
    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.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    We’ve __________ come back from a trip to India. It was amazing.

    • Already

    • Yet

    • Just

    • Only

    Correct Answer
    A. Just
    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.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 13, 21- Which one doesn’t belong to this series?

    Correct Answer
    4
    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.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

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

    • 320

    • 315

    • 300

    • 312

    Correct Answer
    A. 312
    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.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

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

    • 84

    • 96

    • 125

    • 128

    Correct Answer
    A. 128
    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.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

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

    • Will

    • May

    • Can

    • Must

    Correct Answer
    A. May
    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.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

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

    • 7

    • 8

    • 9

    • 10

    Correct Answer
    A. 9
    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.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

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

    • 5

    • 7

    • 8

    • 15

    Correct Answer
    A. 7
    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.

    Rate this question:

  • 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?

    Correct Answer
    24
    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.

    Rate this question:

  • 14.

    • Take

    • Took

    • Taking

    Correct Answer
    A. Taking
    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.

    • Is being

    Correct Answer
    A. Has been
    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.

    • Won't

    • Can't

    Correct Answer
    A. Can't
