Answers & Explanations

Q.No.	Correct Answer	Explanation
1	b) Adverb	Twice describes how many times the action was done, so it's an adverb of frequency.
2	c) Early rising is conductive with help.	The preposition with is incorrect here. The correct phrase is conducive to help.
3	c) Courteous	Courteous means well-mannered or polite, which is the correct synonym for polite.
4	c) Past perfect continuous	The structure had been studying shows past perfect continuous, indicating an action that continued up to a point in the past.
5	b) Future continuous	Will be starting is in the future continuous tense, which describes an action that will be happening in the future.
6	c) Understand the inner meaning	The phrase read between the lines means to understand what is implied but not directly stated.
7	b) Benefit	Benefit is the noun form of beneficial (which is an adjective).
8	c) You can be allowed here only if you are a student.	The clause only if you are a student is an adverb clause showing condition.
9	c) One problem for the players was unexpected threats of injury.	The singular subject One problem matches the singular verb was, making the subject-verb agreement correct.
10	d) No passenger flight departed on that day.	Passenger is a noun modifying another noun flight, acting as a noun pre-modifier.
11	c) Softly	Softly is an adverb, not a noun. All the other options are nouns.
12	b) I don’t want to hear a long description; I just want the bottom line.	Bottom line is often used informally to mean the main point, but here it's not used correctly in formal writing. The phrase sounds awkward and unclear in this context.
