    Correct Answer

    Rate this question:

  • 3.

    • Should

    • Must

    • Would

    • Can

    Correct Answer
    A. Should
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "should". In this context, "should" is used to express obligation or advisability. The speaker's brother is expressing that it would have been a good idea for the speaker to check the weather before they set off.

    • Had to

    • Should

    • Needed

    • Had been

    Correct Answer
    A. Had to
    Explanation
    Before starting the bike trip, the speaker and their brother carefully checked the bikes. The phrase "had to" indicates that checking the bikes was a necessary action that they had to do before starting the trip. This implies that checking the bikes was a requirement or obligation, rather than just a suggestion or preference.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    Unfortunately, halfway there, it started raining heavily, and we ____ to stop.

    • Must

    • Needed

    • Would

    • Had been

    Correct Answer
    A. Needed
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "needed" because the sentence is describing a situation where they had to stop due to heavy rain. "Needed" implies a necessity or requirement to stop, which fits the context of the sentence.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    ‘You  ……… be careful if you are in a public place such as a park.’

    • Mustn’t

    • Ought

    • Have to

    • Have been

    Correct Answer
    A. Have to
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "have to". This is because the sentence suggests that it is necessary or required to be careful in a public place like a park. "Mustn't" would imply that it is prohibited to be careful, which doesn't make sense in this context. "Ought" is not used to express necessity in this way. "Have been" is past tense and does not fit the sentence structure. Therefore, "have to" is the most appropriate choice.

    What was I (3) …………………………..…...  to do?

    • Allowed  

    • Can  

    • Could  

    • Have  

    • Had  

    • Supposed  

    • Used  

    • Will

    Correct Answer
    A. Supposed  
    Explanation
    The question is asking about what the person was supposed to do. "Supposed" is the correct answer because it means expected or required to do something. The other options do not convey the same meaning in the context of the question.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    However, you ______ avoid flying it within 50 meters of built-up areas and...

    • Might

    • Can’t

    • Could

    • Must

    Correct Answer
    A. Must
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "must." This is because the word "must" indicates a requirement or obligation. In the given sentence, it suggests that there is a rule or regulation that prohibits flying the object within 50 meters of built-up areas.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    ....and you ………… fly a drone within 50 meters of a person who is not the pilot.

    • Needn’t

    • Can’t have

    • Mustn’t

    • Need

    Correct Answer
    A. Mustn’t
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "mustn't". This is because the sentence is talking about the restriction of flying a drone within 50 meters of a person who is not the pilot. "Mustn't" indicates prohibition or a strong recommendation not to do something, which aligns with the restriction mentioned in the sentence.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    At least I didn’t (4) …………………………..…...  to leave it at home as my teacher said...

    • Supposed

    • Allowed  

    • Can  

    • Could  

    • Have  

    • Had  

    Correct Answer
    A. Have  
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "have". In this sentence, the speaker is talking about not doing something in the past, specifically not leaving something at home. The use of "didn't" indicates a negative action in the past, and "have" is the correct verb form to use in this context.

    • Can  

    • Could  

    • Have  

    • Had  

    Correct Answer
    A. Could  
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "could". This is because the sentence is referring to a past possibility or ability to keep something in the backpack and use it at the break. "Could" is the past tense form of "can" and is used to indicate a past ability or permission.

    Rate this question:

    • Would

    • Should

    • Had

    Correct Answer
    A. Had
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "had". This is because the sentence is in the past tense and the verb "decided" is also in the past tense. "Had" is the past tense form of the auxiliary verb "have" and is used to indicate that the decision to leave early in the morning was made before the time of speaking.

    • Supposed  

    • Used

The word "had" indicates that the person possessed the mobile in the past and was instructed to carry it with them at all times.

    Rate this question:

  • 14. 

    You may have received a toy drone or UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) as a present, but are you clear of the rules guiding their use? At the moment, you _____ take a drone outside and fly it if the drone weighs less than 20 kg.

    • Mustn’t

    • Can’t

    • Are allowed to

    • Will allow to

    Correct Answer
    A. Are allowed to
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "are allowed to". This means that you are permitted to take a drone outside and fly it if the drone weighs less than 20 kg. It implies that there are rules in place for the use of drones, but as long as the weight requirement is met, flying the drone is permitted.

    Rate this question:

  • 15.

    • Shouldn't have made

    Correct Answer
    A. Needn’t have made
