Question Navigator
English
Question 1
Amazon has been _____________ of creating a shoe “strikingly similar” to one designed by environmentally friendly footwear manufacturer Allbirds.
Correct! The correct answer is option E – Accused. The sentence requires a verb that means “charged with” or “blamed for.” “Accused of” is the correct collocation to indicate that someone has been formally charged with doing something wrong. Example: “The company was accused of misleading customers.”
Question 2
Currently, Greenland’s economy is reliant _______________ two things; fishing, which accounts for 95% of its exports, and an annual grant from the Danish government.
Correct! The correct answer is option D – Upon. The adjective “reliant” is correctly followed by the preposition “upon” (or “on”) to indicate dependence. Example: “The project is reliant upon external funding.”
Question 3
From a painful pinch to a soft caress, scientists are ________________ in on the pressure-sensitive proteins that allow cells to detect tension and pressure.
Correct! The correct answer is option B – Zooming. The phrase “zoom in on” means to focus closely on something, and the present continuous “are zooming” fits the progressive tense required. Example: “The detective is zooming in on the key clues.”
Question 4
Astronomers have discovered a world only a little bit bigger _____________ Earth, whirling around a bright star about 31 parsecs from our planet.
Correct! The correct answer is option B – Than. The comparative adjective “bigger” requires the conjunction “than” to introduce the object of comparison. Example: “This building is taller than that one.”
Question 5
Fashion is a form of cultural ______.
Correct! The correct answer is option E – Dialogue. The sentence needs a noun that means “exchange of ideas or expression.” “Dialogue” fits as a form of cultural expression. Example: “Art is a form of cultural dialogue.”
Question 6
If I had chosen the path, I would have _______ in it.
Correct! The correct answer is option A – walked. The conditional perfect tense “would have” requires the past participle form of the verb, which is “walked.” Example: “If she had studied, she would have passed.”
Question 7
Ritu has been working and _______ her siblings.
Correct! The correct answer is option D – mentoring. The present perfect continuous tense “has been” requires the present participle form for parallel structure with “working.” “Mentoring” maintains the -ing form. Example: “He has been reading and writing all day.”
Question 8
The school wants to ______ the best in the state, convincingly.
Correct! The correct answer is option A – become. The infinitive “to” must be followed by the base form of the verb, which is “become.” Example: “They want to win the championship.”
Question 9
He granted the request because he was _________ to hurt his friend.
Correct! The correct answer is option E – Reluctant. The adjective “reluctant” means unwilling, and it correctly follows “was” to describe his unwillingness to hurt his friend. Example: “She was reluctant to admit her mistake.”
Question 10
The city library underwent extensive renovations and can now ______ twice as many books as before.
Correct! The correct answer is option C – Accommodate. The verb “accommodate” means to have enough space for, which fits the context of holding more books. Example: “The new hall can accommodate 500 guests.”
Question 11
It was a coconut thief who helped discover southern India’s most controversial ancient _____.
Correct! The correct answer is option C – settlement. The sentence refers to an ancient place where people lived, and “settlement” is the correct noun. Example: “Archaeologists uncovered an ancient settlement.”
Question 12
One of the first recipients of the Bharat Ratna ____ politician C. Rajagopalachari.
Correct! The correct answer is option B – was. The subject is “One” (singular), so the verb must be singular “was.” Example: “One of the students was selected.”
Question 13
The bus was late by an hour ______ we waited till it arrived.
Correct! The correct answer is option D – and. The conjunction “and” joins two related clauses where the second follows logically from the first. Example: “It rained heavily, and we stayed indoors.”
Question 14
Can you please help me in arranging all the crockery which _______ lying on the dining table?
Correct! The correct answer is option C – Is. “Crockery” is an uncountable noun and takes the singular verb “is.” Example: “The furniture is new.”
Question 15
US news network CNN has sacked three employees for _____ into an office without having been vaccinated against Covid, US media say.
Correct! The correct answer is option A – Going. The preposition “for” requires a gerund (-ing form) as its object. “Going” fits the context of entering the office. Example: “He was fired for coming late.”
Question 16
We visit our grandparents’ home ________.
Correct! The correct answer is option E – often. The sentence requires an adverb of frequency, and “often” correctly modifies the verb “visit.” Example: “We often go to the beach.”
Question 17
Don’t you ___ leave me here, alone at night.
Correct! The correct answer is option B – Dare. “Dare” as a modal verb is used in negative and interrogative sentences to mean “have the courage to.” Example: “Dare you speak to him?”
Question 18
______ the kingdom against the enemies.
Correct! The correct answer is option C – defend. The verb “defend” means to protect, and it correctly takes “the kingdom” as its object. Example: “They defend their country bravely.”

Correct! The correct answer is option B – playful. The sentence requires an adjective to describe the cub, and “playful” fits. Example: “The playful puppy chased its tail.”
