[#456] Amir Khan . . . . . new movie next year.
Correct Answer
(D) will release
Explanation
Solution: The sentence is: "Amir Khan . . . . . new movie next year." We are talking about a planned or predicted action in the future. The correct and grammatically appropriate form here is "will release" , which uses the structure: Subject + will + base verb So, the complete sentence should read: "Amir Khan will release new movie next year." This structure expresses a definite future action, which is what the sentence requires. Why the other options are incorrect: Option A: is release – This is incorrect because "is" must be followed by a present participle (verb+ing), not the base form. The correct form would be "is releasing" if we were talking about a scheduled future action using present continuous. Option B: will be release – This is grammatically incorrect. If we were using passive voice, it should be "will be released." But in the active voice, "will be release" is incorrect. Option C: going to release – This is missing the correct auxiliary verb "is." It should be "is going to release." Without "is," it is grammatically incomplete. Conclusion: The correct answer is will release because it correctly expresses a future action in the active voice using proper grammar.
[#457] Angel has been sending English learning videos . . . . . July 2014.
Correct Answer
(A) since
Explanation
Solution: Since : This word is used to indicate the starting point of an action or event that continues into the present. It is typically used with a specific point in time (e.g., "since Monday," "since 2010"). Correct Answer: Option A - since The sentence is: "Angel has been sending English learning videos . . . . . July 2014." This sentence is in the present perfect continuous tense, which is used to show that an action started in the past and is still continuing. The word that follows the blank, "July 2014", is a specific point in time (not a duration). In English grammar, when we refer to the starting point of a continuing action, we use the word "since" . Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "Angel has been sending English learning videos since July 2014." Why the other options are incorrect: Option B: for – "For" is used to express a duration of time (e.g., "for two years"). Since "July 2014" is a point in time, not a duration, "for" is incorrect here. Option C: from – "From" usually requires a second point in time (e.g., "from July 2014 to December 2016"). Alone, it is grammatically incomplete in this context. Option D: in – "In" is used to indicate that something happened during a certain time period, but it doesn’t convey the idea of continuity. It would change the meaning of the sentence. Conclusion: The correct answer is since because it properly matches the tense and structure of the sentence, referring to the starting point of a continuous action.
[#458] Angel is famous . . . . . English in Jasdan.
Correct Answer
(A) for
Explanation
Solution: The correct answer is A: for First, let's define the term "preposition". A preposition is a word that shows the relationship between a noun or pronoun and other words in a sentence. Prepositions often indicate location, time, direction, or manner. The sentence requires a preposition that indicates the reason for Angel's fame. "Famous for" means that Angel is well-known because of her skill or talent in English. Option B, "in," suggests location, implying Angel is famous *within* Jasdan. This doesn't directly explain her fame. Option C, "about," implies that Angel is famous *because of information or stories about her*, not because of her inherent skill in English. Option D, "with," suggests that Angel is famous *in association with* something, which is not relevant to the context. It doesn't explain the basis of her fame. Therefore, only "for" accurately conveys the reason for Angel's fame in Jasdan: her proficiency in English.
[#459] Before you gave answers, sir . . . . . them to us.
Correct Answer
(C) had sent
Explanation
Solution: The correct answer is C: had sent . This question tests your understanding of verb tenses, specifically the past perfect tense. Past Perfect Tense: The past perfect tense is used to describe an action that was completed before another action in the past. The structure is "had + past participle." It shows the sequence of events where one event happened earlier than another in the past. In this sentence, the main action is "you gave answers" (past simple tense). The action of sending the answers happened before this giving of answers. Therefore, we need a verb tense that indicates an action completed in the past before another past action. This is precisely what the past perfect tense does. Let's examine why the other options are incorrect: A: sent: This is the simple past tense. It simply states that the sending occurred at some point in the past, but it doesn't establish the sequence of events relative to "you gave answers." It could imply the sending happened at the same time or after the giving of answers, which is incorrect according to the sentence's meaning. B: will send: This is the future simple tense. It indicates an action that will happen in the future, which is completely inappropriate for describing an action that happened before another action in the past. D: was sending: This is the past continuous tense. It describes an action that was in progress at a particular point in the past. However, the sentence implies a completed action (sending the answers), not an ongoing one. Thus, this option is also not grammatically correct in the given context. Therefore, only " had sent " accurately reflects the sequence of events described in the sentence, making it the correct answer.
[#460] Board . . . . . not . . . . . . this question in the previous exam.
Correct Answer
(A) did , ask
Explanation
Solution: Definition: The sentence is in the past tense because it refers to the "previous exam." When forming negative sentences in the past simple tense, we use "did not" + base form of the verb . Correct Answer: The correct option is Option A: did, ask . Explanation: - The subject of the sentence is "Board," which is singular, but in past simple negative sentences, we use "did" for all subjects. - The correct structure for a negative sentence in past simple is: Subject + did not + base form of the verb . - "Ask" is used in its base form because "did" already indicates the past tense. - Therefore, the correct sentence is: Board did not ask this question in the previous exam. Why Other Options Are Incorrect: - Option B: was, ask → Incorrect because "was" is used for passive voice, and "ask" in its base form does not fit after "was." The correct passive form would be "was asked." - Option C: does, ask → Incorrect because "does" is used for present tense, while the sentence refers to the past. - Option D: will, ask → Incorrect because "will" is used for future tense, but the sentence talks about a past event. Final Answer: Option A: did, ask .
