TPCS TCS Prelims Mock Test - 10 - Question 7

Directions: In the following question, a sentence is given with a blank. You have to fill the blank with one of the words given as options in order to make the sentence contextually and grammatically correct.

The great emperor is _______________ for streamlining the irrigation system through systematic land surveys and reorganization of the kingdom into governable units.

Detailed Solution for TPCS TCS Prelims Mock Test - 10 - Question 7

The sentence implies that the king had an efficient governance and thus is popular among people till date. Since the segment containing the blank is in passive voice, thus only a verb in its third form will fit the blank, thus ‘honour’ and ‘know’ are incorrect grammatically. The use of ‘neglected’ is contextually incorrect. ‘Saluted’ is also weak as per the context stated. Only ‘remembered’ is the best fit as the context and grammatical reference.

Hence, option B is correct.

TPCS TCS Prelims Mock Test - 10 - Question 8

No one suspected that Jerry was a spy. On the surface he behaved like any normal citizen. When his covert activity was discovered and announced to the world, we were all shocked. What does "covert" means?

TPCS TCS Prelims Mock Test - 10 - Question 9

Directions: In the question given below, a part of the sentence is given in underline. It is then followed by three options. Find the alternative that can replace the given underline part to make the sentence grammatically and contextually correct. 

After leaving office, he seems to have been caught up in a rear-guard action to protected their own reputation in a country he has spent years visiting.

I. protect by own
II. protected his own
III. protect his own

Detailed Solution for TPCS TCS Prelims Mock Test - 10 - Question 9

The preposition 'to' is followed by base form of the verb. Thus, 'protect' should be used in place of 'protected'. Besides as the sentence refers to singular pronoun ‘he’ so the use of possessive adjective ‘their’ is incorrect. Thus, ‘protect his own’ is the most appropriate choice for the highlighted part of the sentence.
Correct sentence:
After leaving office, he seems to have been caught up in a rear-guard action to protect his own reputation in a country he has spent years visiting.
Hence, the correct answer is option D. 

TPCS TCS Prelims Mock Test - 10 - Question 10

The phrasal verb ‘get out’ means ‘to leave a place of confinement; escape’ which definitely does not make any sense in the given context as the sentence implies that the lawyer was upset or perplexed by the fact that he knew he was lying. Thus, only ‘get over’ fits in the underline part correctly.
Get over: recover from an upsetting or startling experience.

Correct sentence:
Even his lawyer cannot get over the fact that he knew he was lying.
Hence, the correct answer is option D.
