Explanation
Option A is correct because ‘shot’ means ‘an attempt’. As there is the Talent Search Examination, ‘take a shot’ means ‘to give it a try’. Thus, option A is the right answer. Option B is incorrect because ‘trial’ means ‘a test of performance or quality or an examination of evidence in a court’. ‘Trial’ is not the appropriate word in this context. Option C is incorrect because ‘hit’ means ‘reach a target or level’. ‘Hit’ is not the appropriate grammatical word in this context. Option D is incorrect because ‘swipe’ means ‘to hit with a swinging blow’. It is not the appropriate grammatical word in this context.
Option A is the correct answer because ‘scratch’ means ‘rub part of the body with fingernails’. The sentence talks about being careful when a cat gets scared as it may scratch you. So option C is the most appropriate word to complete the meaning of the sentence.Option B is incorrect because ‘hit’ means ‘forcefully bring the hand or object to something’. It is not the appropriate word for the given sentence as a cat generally scratches and not hits.Option C is incorrect because ‘cut’ means ‘make an opening / incision’. Option D is incorrect because ‘kill’ means ’cause death’. It is not the appropriate word for the given sentence.
In the above mentioned passage, the correct word for the blank (41) is Option A, “dish.”
The passage speaks about a special delicacy that is served at the Sri Venkateswara temple in Tirumala, Andhra Pradesh. Millions of devotees throng the temple for this delicacy which is made with the help of certain ingredients in a varied way. Thus in blank (41), the only common noun that describes the word delicacy is Dish. The dictionary meaning of the word suggests the same as well.
The other options, Eat, Taste and Joy are words which do not fit in the blank, and are hence wrong.
Option D is the correct answer because ‘filled’ means ‘occupied or blocked’. The sentence describes shops in the kilometer long stretch in Laad Bazaar. Thus, option D is the most appropriate word. Option A is incorrect because ‘came’ means ‘to come’. It is not the appropriate grammatical word for the given sentence. Option B is incorrect because ‘discovered’ means ‘to find out something’. It is not the appropriate grammatical word for the given sentence. Option C is incorrect because ‘covered’ means ‘to extend’. Although ‘covered’ is relatively similar in meaning, it is not the appropriate contextually.
Option B is the correct answer because ‘chopped’ means ‘cut into pieces with a knife or axe’. It is mentioned that the axes were picked up so ‘chopped’ is the most appropriate word to describe the cutting of the thorny bushes. Option A is incorrect because ‘slice’ means ‘thin, broad piece’. Slice is generally used for food items hence it is not the appropriate word for this sentence. Option C is incorrect because ‘pulled’ means ‘to withdraw or to remove something with force’. Although the meaning is similar, ‘pulled’ is not an appropriate word grammatically. Option D is incorrect because ‘scratched’ means ‘mark with something sharp’. It is not the correct word to describe the cutting of the thorny bushes.
The correct answer is Option B.
We are to complete the sentence with the correct form of the word 'experience'
Option A is incorrect because ‘experiencing’ is the present continuous tense whereas the paragraph is in simple present tense.
Option C is incorrect because ‘experiences’ is in the plural whereas the subject of the sentence should be in the singular form in accordance with the verb.
Option D is incorrect because ‘experienced’ is past tense whereas the paragraph is in simple present tense.
Thus options A, B, and D are incorrect.
Option B is the correct answer because it correctly works as the subject of the sentence. It is in the singular and therefore in accordance with the verb of the sentence.
Hence option B is the correct answer.
In the above mentioned passage, a situation of life and the parcel that it brings along is mentioned and described. In the second last sentence, the word pain is described in simple present tense as something that acts as an alarm bell. Hence, the right form of the word ‘ring’ would be Option D, “rings”.
The other words, ‘rung’, ‘is ringing’ and ‘rang’ do not fit in as a suitable word for the blank as the sentence is in the Simple present tense, and as the subject is a singular word, “rings” will be the most suitable option.
Option C is the correct answer because ‘track’ means ‘a prepared course’. The sentence describes about being careful about the project. ‘On the right path’ means to ensure that the project is completed/delivered properly, so option C ‘track’ is the most appropriate word to complete the meaning of the sentence.
Option A is incorrect because ‘route’ means ‘a way to get somewhere’. It is not the appropriate grammatical word for the given sentence. Option B is incorrect because ‘road’ means ‘a wide track for vehicles to go’. It is not the appropriate grammatical word for the given sentence. Option D is incorrect because ‘way’ means ‘method, manner or a road’. Although ‘way’ is relatively similar in meaning, it is not the appropriate contextually.
Option A is the correct answer because ‘engaged’ means ‘occupied or to use’. Thus, ‘engaged’ is the most appropriate word to describe usage of social media during free time. Option B is incorrect because ‘employed’ means ‘give work to someone and pay them or make use of’. Although ‘employed’ is similar in meaning it is not the appropriate word because youngsters use social media during their free time and are not paid for it. Option C is incorrect because ‘involved’ means ‘to participate’. Thus, it is not the appropriate word to complete the meaning of this sentence. Option D is incorrect because ‘implicated’ means ‘to be responsible for or to be involved in a crime’. Thus, it is not the appropriate word to complete the meaning of this sentence.
An exclamatory sentence expresses surprise, joy, or wonder and is followed by an exclamatory mark and A, B, C follow the rule. Hence, D is correct.
