Answers & Explanations

Q#	Correct Answer	Explanation
1	c) I have been living here for five years.	Present Perfect Continuous is used for actions continuing over a period of time with a specific time reference (“for five years”).
2	a) across	“Across the country” means “throughout the country”; fits best with context of a national event like polling.
3	b) I am very much grateful to you.	“Very much” is used for emphasis with adjectives like “grateful”; more natural and correct than “much grateful.”
4	c) An entrant will have to work hard for five years to become a physician.	“Will have to” expresses future obligation. “To become” is the correct verb phrase for profession.
5	a) Mathematics is a subject of study in any school.	“Mathematics” is a singular noun despite ending in -s. Correct verb: “is.”
6	d) sassy	“Sassy” (rude or disrespectful) is the opposite of “well-mannered” (polite).
7	d) Man proposes but God disposes.	Famous proverb; both verbs are in present simple tense for singular subjects.
8	c) grace	“Revenge” = retaliation; “grace” = forgiveness/kindness, which is the opposite.
9	a) by	“Live by honest means” = to earn a living honestly. “By” is the correct preposition here.
10	d) drained	“Drained” means physically or emotionally exhausted. Synonym of “exhausted.”
11	a) Where there is a will, there is a way.	Classic English proverb meaning determination finds a solution.
12	b) I forbade him to go.	“Forbade” is followed directly by “to + verb” (infinitive). This is the grammatically correct form.
13	b) বাস্তবধর্মী	“Pragmatic” means practical or realistic in approach.
14	d) adverb	“Enough” modifies the adjective “wise”, so it functions as an adverb.
15	c) homely	“Homely” is the adjective form of “home”; has different meanings in UK (cozy) and US (plain-looking).
