    Correct Answer
    B. There's something wrong with that sentence
    Explanation
    The given statement "Were you able already contacted Choice University?" is grammatically incorrect. The correct form should be "Were you able to contact Choice University already?" The word order and verb usage are incorrect in the original sentence. Therefore, there is indeed something wrong with that sentence.

    Rate this question:

    Here's the_________ on the net that I can provide ______Which one do you like?

    • A.

      Number of dollars, to you

      Dollar amount, you

    • C.

      Dollar amount, to you

    • D.

      Number of dollars, you

    Correct Answer
    B. Dollar amount, you
    Explanation
    The phrase "dollar amount, you" is the correct answer because it correctly completes the sentence structure and makes sense in the given context. The sentence is asking for the preferred option among the choices provided, and "dollar amount, you" is the most appropriate phrase to use in this situation. It indicates that the speaker is referring to the amount of dollars and is asking for the listener's preference.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    What phrase is not acceptable in the english grammar?"I cannot be able to help you out if I can't confirm your property code."

    • A.

      Cannot be able

    • B.

      If I can't confirm

    • C.

      Help you out

    • D.

      I cannot

    Correct Answer
    A. Cannot be able
    Explanation
    The phrase "cannot be able" is not acceptable in English grammar because it is redundant. "Cannot" already implies the inability to do something, so adding "be able" after it is unnecessary. The correct phrase would be "I cannot help you out" without the extra "be able."

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    What can you say about this question?"May I please have the property code please?"

    • A.

      I like it, it's very polite

    • B.

      It's redundant

    • C.

      It's fine

    Correct Answer
    B. It's redundant
    Explanation
    The question "May I please have the property code please?" is considered redundant because the words "please" and "please" are used consecutively. The repetition of the word "please" is unnecessary and does not add any additional politeness or formality to the question. Therefore, the question could be simplified by removing one of the "please" words.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    Grammar wise, this statement is correct"Your GM will going to provide you a new password"

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    The given statement is not grammatically correct. The correct form should be "Your GM will provide you with a new password." The phrase "going to" is unnecessary and should be omitted. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    Choose the best statement:

    • A.

      I'm retrieving your property details.

    • B.

      I'm currently pull-upping your property details.  

    • C.

      I will gonna pull up your property details.

    Correct Answer
    A. I'm retrieving your property details.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is "I'm retrieving your property details." This statement is grammatically correct and uses appropriate language. It indicates that the speaker is in the process of obtaining or accessing the requested information about the property. The other two options, "I'm currently pull-upping your property details" and "I will gonna pull up your property details," contain grammatical errors and informal language, making them incorrect choices.

    • C.

      On

    • D.

      We

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Currently
    B. Actually
    Explanation
    The word "currently" can be removed from the statement and it would still make sense because "We are actually working on it" conveys the same meaning. Similarly, the word "actually" can also be removed without changing the meaning of the sentence.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    The grammar in this is statement is incorrect"These boxes is for the quantity of the charges"

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The given statement "These boxes is for the quantity of the charges" contains a grammatical error. The subject "boxes" is plural, but the verb "is" is singular. The correct verb form should be "are" to agree with the subject. Therefore, the statement is grammatically incorrect, making the answer "True."

    Rate this question:

  • 9.

    • C.

      It

    Correct Answer
    C. It
    Explanation
    The word "Make" should be removed from the statement to make the grammar correct. The correct sentence would be: "Be sure you change your password before logging in to Choice Hotels."

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    "Resetted" is the past tense of reset

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    The correct answer is False because "resetted" is not the correct past tense form of the verb "reset." The correct past tense form of "reset" is simply "reset." This means that the verb remains the same in both present and past tense forms.
