Grammar - English Aptitude MCQ Questions and Answers

The sentence is talking about what 'she' used to do when 'she' was 'younger'. 'Had walked' denotes once or a few times therefore 'walked' will be used which will mean regular.

Option A is incorrect because "much" is used before uncountable nouns or mass nouns. 'Many' is the correct choice as it is used to refer to a large number of countable noun. Option C is incorrect because "a lot" is incomplete. It should have been "a lot of". Option D is incorrect because "some" is used in positive sentences.

'Much' is mainly used as an adjective, while 'very' is specifically used as an adverb. 'Much' and 'very' are two terms that are used often used to imply more or excess. However, the two terms differ in the manner that they are used. 'Much' is mainly used as an adjective, while 'very' is specifically used as an adverb.
As we already have an adjective 'pleased' we require an adverb which is 'very'.

'Urmila' which is noun can be followed by modal verbs while 'which', 'where', 'why' are used in interrogative sentences. Therefore 'could' is the correct answer.

'every year' gives a continuous tense to the statement and therefore adjectives positive degree should be used which is 'wish'.

The correct answer is Option D: which.

First, let's define the relative pronouns in the options.

Whom: A relative pronoun used for referring to people as the *object* of a verb or preposition.
Whose: A relative pronoun showing possession (belonging to someone or something).
Who: A relative pronoun used for referring to people as the *subject* of a verb.
Which: A relative pronoun used for referring to things, animals, or groups of people.

The sentence refers to kangaroos, which are animals. The clause "use their pouch to carry their babies" acts as a descriptive clause modifying "kangaroos." In this clause, "kangaroos" is the subject performing the action of using the pouch. Therefore, we need a relative pronoun that refers to animals and acts as a subject. "Which" fits this description perfectly.

Why other options are incorrect:

Option A (whom): Incorrect because "whom" is used for objects, not subjects. The kangaroos are the subject of the verb "use."
Option B (whose): Incorrect because "whose" indicates possession. The sentence doesn't describe anything belonging to the kangaroos in this clause.
Option C (who): Incorrect because "who" refers to people, not animals.

The present perfect continuous is formed with have/has been and the -ing form of the verb. We normally use the present perfect continuous to emphasize that something is still continuing in the present.
Example: She has been living in Liverpool all her life.

The subject-verb agreement provides us with the rules of placing a correct verb in correspondence to the subject.
'Mr. Gopalan' is the subject in this sentence. The subject is thus singular.
'Picks' is the singular verb. Thus it is the answer.
'Pick' is the plural verb. Hence, it cannot be placed in this sentence.

The correct answer is (A) the daughter.
Let's break down why:

* Why "the daughter"?
We use "the" when we're talking about a specific daughter.
The sentence implies that Memon is *the* well-known daughter in connection with Nisar Memon.
It assumes the audience knows which daughter is being referred to.

* Why not "a daughter"?
"A daughter" would mean Memon is *one* of Nisar Memon's daughters, but not necessarily a particularly known or relevant one.
It's less specific.

* Why not "daughter"?
"Daughter" alone is grammatically incorrect in this sentence structure.
It needs an article ("a" or "the") before it to function properly as a noun describing Memon.
* Why not "none of the above"?
Because option (A) is the correct one, the daughter is the suitable answer.

We use 'used to' when we refer to things in the past which are no longer true. It can refer to repeated actions or to a state or situation.
Example: He used to play football for the local team, but he's too old now.
