The correct answer is Funambulist.

Key Points

Let's take a look at the table below:

Here we find that a Funambulist means someone who walks on ropes or a tightrope walker.
Therefore Option 4 is the correct answer.

The correct answer is: No substitution

Key Points

• "don't have to renew" means no need to renew.
• In English, 'don't' is used when speaking in the first and second person plural and singular and the third person plural.
• In the given sentence 'Drivers' denotes the first-person plural noun.
• 'Doesn't', is used when speaking in the third person singular only ("he," "she," and "it").
• Similarly 'have' is also used in the first and second person plural and singular and the third person plural. “Have” is a verb that means to possess something or to do something.
• We use "has" with the third person singular (he has, she has, it has).
• Therefore, the given sentence is both grammatically and conceptually correct.

​Hence, the correct answer is option 3.

The correct answer is to.

Key Points

• The sentence indicates a time or period.
• Hence the correct usage from the given alternatives is 'to'.

The correct sentence will be: The origin of ice cream dates back to nearly half a century.

The correct answer is option 3), i.e., 'these jackets is.'

Key Points

• The error lies in Part (these jackets are) of the sentence.
• As per instructions, the remaining portion of the sentence is correct.
• According to the rules of subject-verb agreement, ​​'One of/only one of' is always followed by a noun/pronoun in the plural form and verb in the singular form.
• So the helping verb 'are' will be changed into 'is.'
• Therefore, in the erroneous part, the use of 'these jackets are' in the sentence should be replaced with 'these jackets is' to make it grammatically correct.
• Therefore, the correct answer is Option 3.

Correct sentence: Only one of these jackets is suitable for cold weather.

The correct answer is "Despite"

Key Points

• The correct option to join the two sentences is "Despite." The sentence "The hike was challenging despite the beautiful scenery" means that the beauty of the scenery did not make the hike any easier, it was still challenging.
• Option 1, "Because," would indicate that the challenging hike was due to the beautiful scenery, which doesn't make sense in this context.
• Option 2, "In spite of," would mean that the challenging hike happened despite the beautiful scenery, which fits the intended meaning.
• Option 4, "Although," would imply a contrast between the challenging hike and the beautiful scenery, which is not the intended meaning.

Correct answer: The hike was challenging despite the beautiful scenery.

The correct answer is "Definitely someone must have found the stolen car by now." Key Points

• Look at the basic rule for this type of conversion:

  • Passive	Active
    Object+must+have+been+3rd form of the verb+Subject	Subject+must+have +3rd form of the verb+object
    The stolen car must have been found by now.	Someone must have found the stolen car

• The "must have" will change into "Must have been" in the passive voice.
• Look at the following example:
  • Active: Smith must have started a shop.
  • Passive: A shop must have been started by Smith.
• Hence, the correct answer is: Definitely someone must have found the stolen car by now.​

The correct answer is option 3.

• 'Hardly....when' is used to combine sentences denoting two past simultaneous actions.
• 'Hardly' is written at the beginning with the past perfect tense form.
• The second part is written after using 'when'.
• The most appropriate answer is option 3 which combines the sentences without changing the meaning.

Correct sentence-

Hardly had the speaker finished his speech when the people started shouting slogans.

The correct answer is 'Don’t let his smooth talk fool you​.'

Key Points

• Generally, an imperative sentence does not have a subject. It is used to express a command or request.
• The imperative sentence in the active and passive voice takes the following form:
  • V1 + Object.
  • Object + should be + V3.
  • Example:
    • ​Help the needy. (Active Voice)
    • The needy should be helped. (Passive Voice)
• ​'let' is not followed by the preposition 'to'.​

Final Sentence: Don’t let his smooth talk fool you.  

Hinglish

• ​आम तौर पर, एक imperative sentence में कोई subject नहीं होता है। इसका उपयोग किसी आदेश या अनुरोध को व्यक्त करने के लिए किया जाता है।
• active and passive voice में imperative sentence निम्नलिखित रूप लेता है:
  • V1 + object।
  • Object + should be + V3 होना चाहिए।
  • Example:
    • ​Help the needy. (Active Voice)
    • The needy should be helped. (Passive Voice)
• 'let' के बाद 'to' preposition नहीं आता है।

The correct answer is will flunk.

Key Points

• The tense to be used in this sentence is simple future.
• This is because the speaker is predicting an event that will happen in the future.
• Thus, ‘will flunk’ is the best fit for the blank.

Hence, the correct choice is option 2.

The correct answer is: 'RSPQ'

Key Points

• We need to check the grammatical and contextual connection between the parts of the sentence to find the correct sequence.
• Part R contains a subject, a helping verb, and a verb along with an adverb
  • It becomes the first part of the sentence.
• Part 'R' ends with 'put'
• Part S starts with 'on'
  • Both the words join together and become 'put on' means to wear
  • So S will become the second part of the sentence.
• Part S ends with 'well-washed' which is an adjective
• Part P starts with 'clothes', which is a noun
• An adjective is followed by a noun
  • So P will be the third part of the sentence.
• Part P ends with 'neat'
• Part Q starts with 'and clean'
  • 'Neat and clean' is always used together.
• So Q will be put at the last place and it will complete the sentence.
• Thus the correct sequence is: RSPQ

The complete sentence is:  We should bathe daily and put on fresh, well-washed clothes, keep our books neat and clean and our house spick and span

The correct answer is 'tolerent'.

Key Points

• Let us explore the options:-
  • 'Business' means a person's regular occupation, profession, or trade. (किसी व्यक्ति का नियमित व्यवसाय, पेशा या व्यापार)
  • 'Tolerent': There is no such word in English or we can say that there is some spelling mistake in this word.
    • ​The correct spelling is 'tolerant' which means showing a willingness to allow the existence of opinions or behavior that one does not necessarily agree with. (राय या व्यवहार के अस्तित्व की अनुमति देने की इच्छा दिखा रहा है जो जरूरी नहीं कि इससे सहमत हो)
  • 'Shield' means a large, flat object made of metal or leather that soldiers held in front of their bodies to protect themselves (धातु या चमड़े से बनी एक बड़ी, सपाट वस्तु जिसे सैनिक अपनी रक्षा के लिए अपने शरीर के सामने रखते थे)
  • 'Seldom' means almost never (कभी-कभी)

Hence, the correct answer is option 2.

The correct answer is 'RPSQ'.

Key Points

• The given question is an example of sentence rearrangement. 
• The sentence should begin with Segment R as it introduces the subject of the sentence i.e. ‘Alphabet’.
• Segment P is connected with R. 
• Out of the given options, only option 1 contains Segment R as the starting segment, thereby, making it the correct answer.
• Therefore, as per the points mentioned above, we find that the correct answer is Option 1.
  ​

Correct Answer: Alphabet is a set of graphs or characters used to represent the phonemic structure of a language.

The answer is Option 4 i.e Prosperous

Explanation:

  • Affluent(adjective): having a great deal of money; wealthy. (धनी)
  • Prosperous(adjective): successful in material terms; flourishing financially; bringing wealth and success. (समृद्ध)
• ​Here we find that both Affluent and Prosperous express the same meaning.

​

• Let's look at the meaning of other words:
  • Impoverished(adjective): (of a person or area) made poor; deprived of strength or vitality. (गरीब)
  • Hostile(adjective): showing or feeling opposition or dislike; unfriendly. (विरोधी)
  • Authentic(adjective): of undisputed origin and not a copy; genuine. (प्रामाणिक)
• Thus the correct answer is Option 4 i.e Prosperous.

The correct answer is 'No one can explain the concept better'.

Key Points

• The given sentence is an interrogative sentence.
• To change an interrogative sentence into an assertive sentence, the steps mentioned below should be followed:
  • If interrogative sentence starts with an auxiliary verb and contains 'anyone', we start the sentence with 'No one'.
  • After 'No one', we place auxiliary verb and then main verb and rest of the information.
  • Interrogative sentence: Auxiliary verb + anyone + main verb + extra info.
  • Assertive sentence: No one + auxiliary verb + main verb + extra info.
• Following the above mentioned structure, we get the required assertive sentence as following:
  • No one can explain the concept better.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 1).

Additional Information

• An assertive sentence is a statement of the assertion. This sentence gives information about facts, history, incidents, opinions, events, feeling, and beliefs. An assertive sentence ends with a full stop (.). These are divided into two categories-
  • Affirmative Sentence: a positive assertion or declaration
    • Ex: I love her very much.
  • Negative Sentence: a negative assertion or declaration
    • Ex: I do not love her.
• Interrogative sentence: These sentences ask questions, and are usually directly spoken or written to the subject. They always end in a question mark. Often, interrogative sentences begin with who, what, where, when, why, how, or do.
  • Ex: Do you love her?
  • Ex: Who is your brother?

The correct answer is: Steadfastness

Key Points

• Perseverance means persistence in doing something despite difficulty or delay in achieving success. (सफलता प्राप्त करने में कठिनाई या देरी के बावजूद किसी कार्य को करने में लगे रहना; दृढ़ता; अटलता)
• Marked option Steadfastness means the quality of being resolutely or dutifully firm and unwavering. (दृढ़ या कर्तव्यपरायण रूप से दृढ़ और अटूट होने का गुण)
• It is clear that 'Perseverance' and 'Steadfastness' are similar in meaning.
• Therefore the correct answer is option 3.​

Additional Information

• Discipline: The practice of making people obey rules or standards of behavior, and punishing them when they do not. (लोगों को नियमों या व्यवहार के मानकों का पालन करने और ऐसा न करने पर उन्हें दंडित करने की प्रथा)
• Tolerance: The ability to bear something unpleasant or annoying. (कुछ अप्रिय या कष्टप्रद सहन करने की क्षमता)
• Humbleness: The quality or state of being modest and lacking in pride or arrogance. (विनम्र होने और गर्व या अहंकार में कमी की गुणवत्ता या स्थिति)

The correct answer is 'We rejoice to have won the match'.

Key Points

• The given sentence is an exclamatory sentence.
  • Exclamatory sentence:- An exclamatory sentence conveys a strong emotion and ends with an exclamation mark (!).
  • An exclamatory sentence makes a statement just like a declarative sentence but is also conveys emotion.
  • For example:- How beautiful this city is!
• We have to convert it into an assertive sentence:
  • Assertive sentence:- The sentence which declares a statement, feeling, opinion, history, or anything is called an assertive sentence or declarative sentence.
  • An assertive sentence ends with a period (.).
  • Note that the assertive sentences can be either affirmative or negative.
  • For example:- Alex is a good baseball player.
• In order to change the given exclamatory sentence into an assertive sentence, we have to follow some of the steps:-
  • To change the exclamatory sentences to assertive sentences, you need to add words like very, great, indeed, truly, etc. to the sentence. Also, you need to remove the exclamatory mark while converting an exclamatory sentence to an assertive sentence.
  • For example:-

    • Exclamatory Sentence	Assertive Sentence
      What a pity you didn't come!	It was a pity you did not come.
      Alas! We have lost the match.	It is indeed unfortunate that we have lost the match.

• Similarly, the given sentence when changed into an assertive sentence will be as follows:
  • We rejoice to have won the match

Hence, the correct answer is option 3.

The erroneous part is 'his prospects hardly'.

• Here, 'his prospects hard' should be used instead of 'his prospects hardly'.
• "Hard" means 'with great force; heavily'. (ज़ोरदार ढंग से, बहुत ज़ोर से, शक्तिपूर्वक)
• In this case, "hard" is an adverb that tells us that the person's prospects hit heavily.
  • Example: It was raining/snowing hard.

The erroneous part is 'It was a surprising'.

Key Points

• The given sentence is grammatically incorrect.
• Here, 'It was surprising' should be used instead of 'It was a surprising'.
• An article is a short word like "a" or "the" that goes before a noun to make it clear what the noun refers to.
• We should use an article with a singular countable noun like a person, house, apple, or book.
• Articles are sometimes (but not always) needed before plural nouns, proper nouns, or uncountable nouns.
  • Example: This is a waste of time!
