Answer Review for "Improvement Questions 05"
Question Navigator
English
Question 1
The manager warned the team that unless the project is completed by Friday, they will have to work over the weekend.
Correct! In reported speech with a past tense reporting verb (“warned”), the future tense “will” changes to “would” to maintain tense consistency. Therefore, “they will have” should be replaced with “they would have.” Example: “She said that she would arrive soon.” (Not: “She said that she will arrive soon.”)
Question 2
The Central Vigilance Commission (CVC) has modified the guidelines pertaining to the transfer and posting of officials in vigilance units of government organizations, restricting their tenure to 3 years at one place.
Correct! The sentence is grammatically correct. The present perfect tense “has modified” is appropriate for a recent action with present relevance, and “pertaining to” is the correct participial phrase. Example: “The committee has revised the rules pertaining to employee conduct.” (similar correct structure).
Question 3
Protesting farmers on Tuesday blocked a BJP MP’s car, smashed its windscreen as he tried to leave a party worker’s home, police said.
Correct! The sentence requires a participle phrase to show a simultaneous action. “Smashed” is a past tense verb that creates a run-on sentence. The present participle “smashing” correctly connects the action to the main clause. Example: “The protesters blocked the car, breaking its windows as the driver tried to escape.” (Not: “The protesters blocked the car, broke its windows as the driver tried to escape.”)
Question 4
The Union ministry of health and family welfare said on Wednesday that India surpassed the United States to becoming the fastest vaccinating country in the world.
Correct! The infinitive “to” is followed by the base form of the verb, not a gerund. Therefore, “to becoming” should be replaced with “to become.” Example: “She aims to become the best in her field.” (Not: “She aims to becoming the best in her field.”)
Question 5
Whilst the hostility towards the commission soon dissipated in the calmer cultural climate of the 1850s, the excitement that has attended their activities during the 1840s were replaced by indifferent.
Correct! The pronoun “their” incorrectly refers to “the commission,” which is singular. It should be “its.” The past perfect “had attended” is correct for an action before the 1850s. Also, “excitement” is singular, so “was” is correct, and “indifferent” (adjective) should be “indifference” (noun). Example: “The excitement that had surrounded its launch was replaced by calm.” (Not: “The excitement that had surrounded their launch were replaced by calm.”)
Question 6
The private consortium who provides the finance and expert to designing, build and operate the new roads will work alongside existing highway authorities.
Correct! “Consortium” is singular and takes “which,” not “who.” However, the plural “Consortia” takes “who” and a plural verb “provide.” “Expert” should be “expertise” (noun), and the infinitive “to design” should be used for parallel structure with “build” and “operate.” Example: “The companies who provide the funding to plan, build, and operate the facilities are essential.” (Not: “The company who provides the funding for planning, build, and operate.”)
Question 7
Young people who haven’t learned the skills they needed to participate in the global economies are becoming disillusioned, which makes them more likely to find outlets in extremism or crime.
Correct! The sentence describes a present situation, so the present tense “need” is required, not the past tense “needed.” Also, “global economy” (singular) is more idiomatic than “global economies.” Example: “They need to learn the skills they require for the modern workplace.” (Not: “They need to learn the skills they required for the modern workplace.”)
Question 8
Social media has created a new system for human communication where the individual have the power to speak his mind by deconstructing human interaction in its own way breaking the conventional forms of communication and bringing in the conversional style of communication.
Correct! The subject “individual” is singular, so the verb must be “has,” not “have.” The phrase “speak his mind” correctly uses the singular possessive pronoun to match “individual.” Example: “A system where the individual has the right to express his views is essential.” (Not: “A system where the individual have the right to express his views is essential.”)
Question 9
Researchers hope to discover new treatments that may help people suffering from migraine headaches.
Correct! The sentence is grammatically correct. The verb “hope” agrees with the plural subject “Researchers,” and “to discover” is the correct infinitive form after “hope.” Example: “Scientists hope to find a cure for the disease.” (similar correct structure).
Question 10
To using magnetic with brain-like networks to program teach devices to better generalize about different objects, researchers have developed a process.
Correct! The infinitive of purpose is “to + base verb,” not “to + gerund.” Therefore, “To using” should be replaced with “To use.” Additionally, “magnetics” (noun) is required as the object. Example: “To use advanced technology, the team developed new software.” (Not: “To using advanced technology, the team developed new software.”)
Question 11
A folk singer dressed in traditional national costume sang a folk song, which originated from the region of Rhodope mountains.
Correct! The sentence is grammatically correct. “Which originated from” correctly uses the simple past tense to indicate the origin of the song. Example: “The tradition, which originated from ancient customs, is still practiced today.” (similar correct structure).
Question 12
Poverty is too much with us and its presence across vast stretches of our country disturbed our conscious.
Correct! The word “conscious” is an adjective meaning aware, but the sentence requires the noun “conscience,” meaning moral sense. Also, the present tense “disturbs” is appropriate for a current condition. Example: “The injustice disturbs our conscience.” (Not: “The injustice disturbs our conscious.”)
Question 13
In the coming decade, company which adopt remote working will win the war for talent over rivals who don’t.
Correct! The plural noun “companies” is required to agree with the plural verb “adopt.” “Decades” is incorrect because “In the coming decade” (singular) is the correct phrase. However, option D uses “Decades,” which appears to be an error in the options. The intended correction is “Decade, companies that” for proper agreement. Example: “In the coming year, companies that innovate will succeed.” (Not: “In the coming year, company which innovate will succeed.”)
Question 14
IIT Indore will be broadcasted educational content on Science and Mathematics for the students of 6 to 8 under the National Invention Campaign.
Correct! The future active voice “will broadcast” is correct here. “Will be broadcasted” is incorrect because “broadcast” is an irregular verb whose past participle is “broadcast,” not “broadcasted.” Also, active voice is more appropriate as IIT Indore is performing the action. Example: “The channel will broadcast the program tomorrow.” (Not: “The channel will be broadcasted the program tomorrow.”)
Question 15
Maria had delivered a solo guitar performance before introducing Neil, who has prepared to speak to his supporters about the pandemic that’s upending every inch of our daily lives.
Correct! The main clause uses past perfect “had delivered,” so the subordinate clause must use simple past “was prepared” for tense consistency. “Has prepared” (present perfect) is incorrect. Example: “She had finished her speech before introducing the guest, who was ready to address the audience.” (Not: “She had finished her speech before introducing the guest, who has ready to address the audience.”)
Question 16
The CEO agrees that his company shall be regulated when it comes to harmful content on the social media platforms.
Correct! “Should” is used to express obligation or recommendation, which fits better than “shall” (simple future) in this context of expressing what is proper. “It” is correct, not “its” (possessive). Example: “The company agrees that it should be regulated when it comes to safety.” (Not: “The company agrees that it shall be regulated when its comes to safety.”)
Question 17
Based on information we had, the attorneys agreed that the case looked suspicious.
Correct! The definite article “the” is required before “information” when referring to specific information. “Based on information” is grammatically acceptable but “Based on the information” is more precise. Example: “Based on the evidence we collected, we made our decision.” (More precise than “Based on evidence we collected.”)
Question 18
It will be another billion years until the Sun runs out of fuel and swells into a red giant star before going into a white dwarf form.
Correct! The sentence is grammatically correct. The simple present tense “runs” and “swells” is correctly used after “until” to describe a future event in a time clause. Example: “It will be hours until the sun rises and brightens the sky.” (similar correct structure).
Question 19
For most of the time, legalized gambling is almost exclusive associated with Las Vegas.
Correct! The adverb “exclusively” is required to modify the verb “associated,” not the adjective “exclusive.” Therefore, “exclusive associated” should be replaced with “exclusively associated.” Example: “The brand is exclusively associated with luxury.” (Not: “The brand is exclusive associated with luxury.”)
Question 20
India’s daily COVID-19 vaccinations have slowed from their record high early this month while new infections have set a record in eight of the past nine day, government data show, underscoring a lack of doses in the country.
Correct! The noun “day” must be plural “days” because it follows “nine,” which indicates more than one. Therefore, “day” should be replaced with “days.” Example: “In five of the past six months, sales have increased.” (Not: “In five of the past six month, sales have increased.”)

However, option D uses “Decades,” which appears to be an error in the options. The intended correction is “Decade, companies that” for proper agreement. Example: “In the coming year, companies that innovate will succeed.” (Not: “In the coming year, company which innovate will succeed.”)
