English Language Questions and Answers

  • 1. 

    I want to buy a new _______________ for that summer.

    • A.

      Suit

    • B.

      Suite

    • C.

      Siut

    Correct Answer
    A. Suit
    Explanation
    The correct word to use in the sentence "I want to buy a new _______________ for that summer." is "suit." This refers to an item of clothing typically consisting of a jacket and trousers or a skirt, made from the same material. It is especially suitable for formal or business occasions, or could even refer to a lighter, more casual style perfect for summer wear. The other options, "suite" and "siut," do not fit the context. "Suite" refers to a set of rooms, and "siut" is not a recognized word in English.

    Rate this question:

  • 2. 

    Identify the correct spelling.

    • A.

      Accomodate

    • B.

      Acommodate

    • C.

      Accommodate

    • D.

      Accommodated

    Correct Answer
    C. Accommodate
    Explanation
    The correct spelling is "Accommodate." This spelling includes two 'c's and two 'm's, which is the proper formation for this word that means to provide space for someone or to make adjustments to accommodate someone’s needs. "Accomodate" and "Acommodate" are common misspellings, and "Accommodated" is the past tense form of the verb.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    I _______________ his marvelous flowers!

    • A.

      Agree

    • B.

      Accept

    • C.

      Acept

    Correct Answer
    B. Accept
    Explanation
     In the sentence "I _______________ his marvelous flowers!", if "accept" is used, it could mean that you are acknowledging or receiving his flowers, perhaps as a gift or offering. This isn't the typical expression for enjoying or appreciating flowers, but it could make sense in a context where the flowers are being presented to you. Therefore, "accept" could be a valid answer given the options provided, but it would depend heavily on the context.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    Which sentence is grammatically correct?

    • A.

      I goed to park

    • B.

      I have went

    • C.

      I went there

    Correct Answer
    C. I went there
    Explanation
    The correct sentence is "I went there." This sentence uses the simple past tense of the verb "go" correctly. "I goed to park" is incorrect because "goed" is not a valid past tense form of "go" (the correct form is "went"). "I have went" is also incorrect because the proper past participle of "go" is "gone," so it should be "I have gone." Thus, "I went there" is grammatically correct and appropriately conveys the action in the past tense.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    This is a great _______________ to do really good in office.

    • A.

      Possibility

    • B.

      Opportunity

    • C.

      Oportunity

    Correct Answer
    B. Opportunity
    Explanation
    The correct word to complete the sentence "This is a great _______________ to do really good in office." is "opportunity." This term is suitable as it refers to a favorable or advantageous circumstance or combination of circumstances. The correct spelling of the word is "opportunity," with two 'p's. "Possibility" refers to something that might occur, not necessarily something that is an advantageous circumstance. "Oportunity" is a misspelling of "opportunity." Therefore, the right choice is "opportunity."

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    He really likes this national _______________.

    • A.

      Ciosin

    • B.

      Cousin

    • C.

      Cuisine

    Correct Answer
    C. Cuisine
    Explanation
    The correct word to complete the sentence "He really likes this national _______________." is "cuisine." This term refers to a style or method of cooking, especially as characteristic of a particular country, region, or establishment. "Cuisine" fits perfectly in this context, as it implies a specific type of food preparation or dishes that are typical of a nation. The word "cousin" refers to a family member, and "ciosin" is not a recognized word in English. Therefore, "cuisine" is the appropriate choice for this sentence.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    Which of these is a preposition?

    • A.

      Run

    • B.

      Under

    • C.

      Jump

    Correct Answer
    B. Under
    Explanation
    The word "under" is a preposition. Prepositions are words used to express the relationship of a noun or pronoun to another part of the sentence. "Under" indicates a relationship of position, specifically something being below or beneath something else. In contrast, "Run" and "Jump" are verbs, which are action words describing what someone or something is doing. Therefore, among the options provided, "under" is the only preposition.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    I am so _______________ to see you there!

    • A.

      Thankful

    • B.

      Gratefull

    • C.

      Grateful

    Correct Answer
    C. Grateful
    Explanation
    The correct word to complete the sentence "I am so _______________ to see you there!" is "grateful." This word means feeling or showing an appreciation for something done or received. The correct spelling of the word is "grateful," not "gratefull" which is a common misspelling. "Thankful" could also work in this context, but it is not one of the options where the spelling needs to be considered. Therefore, "grateful" is the appropriate choice to express appreciation in this sentence.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    He has lots of _______________ to do at home.

    • A.

      Staff

    • B.

      Stuff

    • C.

      Staf

    Correct Answer
    B. Stuff
    Explanation
     The correct word to complete the sentence "He has lots of _______________ to do at home." is "stuff." In this context, "stuff" refers to things, materials, activities, or tasks. It's an informal term often used to describe an assortment of items or duties. "Staff" refers to a group of people who work for an organization or serve in a particular capacity, which does not fit the context of this sentence. "Staf" is not a recognized word in English. Therefore, "stuff" is the correct and most appropriate choice for this sentence.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    What is the comparative form of "good"?

    • A.

      Better

    • B.

      Gooder

    • C.

      Best

    Correct Answer
    A. Better
    Explanation
    The comparative form of "good" is "better." This form is used when comparing the qualities or states of two subjects. "Better" indicates a higher degree of quality or superiority in one subject relative to another. "Gooder" is not a correct word in English; "good" is an irregular adjective, and its comparative form does not follow the typical "-er" suffix pattern. "Best" is the superlative form of "good," used when comparing three or more subjects to indicate the highest quality or degree among them. Thus, the correct comparative form is "better."
