260. Identify the correct sentence. [CU (A) 04-05] A. Yesterday I laid in bed until noon B. Last Friday I lay my hands on the desk C. He was laying in the sun D. Now I lay me down to sleep Ans: B (Wait, Source says B for "Last Friday I lay my hands on the desk"? Lay is past of lie. But 'lay hands' is transitive (put). Past of 'lay' is 'laid'. So B is incorrect. D "Now I lay me down to sleep" uses 'lay' transitively (put myself down), which is correct. A uses 'laid' for 'lie' (wrong). C uses 'laying' for 'lying' (wrong). Source key says B. But D is a famous prayer line and grammatically transitive. Let me re-read the source image. Q260 options: A. Yesterday I laid..., B. Last Friday I lay my hands..., C. He was laying..., D. Now I lay me down... Ans: B. This seems odd. 'Lay' is past of lie (intransitive). 'I lay my hands' requires transitive past 'laid'. Unless it is present tense? But 'Last Friday' implies past. Maybe D is the answer? Or maybe the source has a specific interpretation. I will list the source answer B but note D is standard correct English for the prayer).

ANSWERS & EXPLANATIONS



BCS Answers


01. Ans: C Explanation: When someone is injured by an external force, the passive form is used. Here, "Injured" (meaning 'being injured' or 'having been injured' in a passive sense functioning as a participle) fits best. The structure is Participle + Subject + Verb. "Injured, he lay..." means "Being injured, he lay...". Note: Option A "Be injured" is incorrect grammar here. The provided solution suggests 'Injured' is correct (Option D), but mentions 'Being injured' would be clearer. Wait, the options in the text are A. Be injured, B. Injuring, C. Having injured, D. Injured. The text answer key says Ans. C but the explanation discusses 'Being injured' and 'Injured'. Let's re-read carefully. "Solution: ... Having injured হবে না ... Being injured বসবে ... অপশন a) তে আছে Be injured ... তবে আধুনিক English grammar ... Injured দ্বারা ... অপশন d) কেও সঠিক উত্তর হিসেবে নিতে পারে।" However, the key explicitly says Ans. C. Wait, if 'Having injured' is active voice (he injured someone else), it doesn't fit 'he lay groaning'. He was the one hurt. So passive is needed. 'Being injured' is best. Since 'Being injured' isn't there, 'Injured' (Past Participle acting as passive adjective) is the standard correct form. The provided text answer key says C, but the explanation contradicts it saying "Having injured হবে না" (Having injured won't do). It seems the text might have an error in the Answer Key letter. Based on standard grammar, D. Injured is the correct choice. Correction: The text provided says Ans. C but explains why C is wrong. I will follow the logic: D is correct. (Wait, checking source again: Source 401 says "Ans. Note" and then discusses. It doesn't explicitly select C or D as the final final, but leans towards D or a typo in A. Let's stick to the most grammatical answer which is D).

02. Ans: BExplanation: The past tense of 'lie' (to recline) is 'lay'. 'Lied' is past tense of 'lie' (to tell untruths). Since it is 'yesterday', simple past 'lay' is correct.
