Test: Conjunctions- 2 - Question 1

Choose the option that best fills in the blank:

The prince was acted by none other _____ Dan Riggs.

Detailed Solution for Test: Conjunctions- 2 - Question 1

The given sentence emphasizes on the noun 'Dan Riggs', and "none other" is a phrase that when joined with 'than', means to emphasize on a person by saying 'this very person'. Hence from the options, 'than' follows 'no other' and option D is correct. 'No other than' is a phrase that has a combined meaning of emphasis, hence it can't be replaced by any other options. 'But' has many meanings, one of which refers to an exception, but here the statement does not require an exception, but an emphasis, hence option A is incorrect. 'As' refers to manner, or comparison, none of which matches with the phrase 'no other', as it intends to emphasize on a person, hence option B is incorrect. 'Of' is a preposition that expresses the relationship between a part and a whole, example, 'two out of five people turned up', but here there isn't any such relationship, hence option C is also incorrect.

Test: Conjunctions- 2 - Question 5

Choose the option that best fills in the blank:

She was standing at the bus stop _____ she saw her neighbor drive by. [Intermediate]

Detailed Solution for Test: Conjunctions- 2 - Question 5

A conjunction combines or connects two sentences as one. When one of them depends on the other for its full meaning, that clause is the subordinate clause ("she saw her neighbour drive by"), and the clause it depends on is the main clause ("She was standing at the bus stop"). Here, we require a time-related conjunction as both clauses are in terms of the events (standing at the stop, seeing her neighbour) occurring at a particular time. From the options, 'when' is the most suitable option, as it demonstrates an interruption, there's a very short lapse in time between 'she is standing at the bus stop' and 'she saw her neighbour', they both don't occur at the same time, but the second activity interrupts the first, hence we use 'when' and not 'while'. 'While' is used when two activities are taking place simultaneously, but here they aren't. Hence option B is correct and A is incorrect. 'But' is a coordinating conjunction used when both clauses are independent and do not depend on the other for their full meaning, and is used to express a contrast in meaning between these clauses. But here we don't need a coordinating conjunction, and the clauses are not contrast-related, hence option C is incorrect. 'For' is also a coordinating conjunction, used when one clause is inferred or deduced by another, and that isn't the case here, hence option D is incorrect.

Test: Conjunctions- 2 - Question 6

Fill in the blank with a suitable option:

He wrote carefully so ______ his mother could read it.

Detailed Solution for Test: Conjunctions- 2 - Question 6

A conjunction combines or connects two sentences as one. In the given sentence, the clause "his mother could read it" is a dependent/subordinate clause, as it depends on the independent/main clause for its full meaning. Hence for this sentence, a subordinating conjunction is required. A conjunction can be a single word, or a phrase, such as even if, as if, as soon as, etc. We have a pair of conjunctions in this sentence, "so...", where we have to find the right word that pairs up with 'so'. The subordinate clause is the purpose behind which the action in the main clause "wrote carefully" takes place, hence we need a conjunction that expresses purpose. 'That' is the most suitable option, it pairs up with 'so' and expresses purpose, 'that' on its own it refers to purpose as well, hence option A is correct. 'Than' expresses a comparison between the clauses, it compares two people, or things. But here there isn't any comparison, hence option B is incorrect. 'If' expresses a condition, or a hypothetical situation, it may or may not be true. However, the given sentence is not conditional, hence option C is incorrect. 'When' expresses time, it is used when two activities take place at the same time, or one activity begins shortly after the other whereas the given sentence does not focus on time but purpose. Hence option D is incorrect.

Test: Conjunctions- 2 - Question 7

Identify the correct version of the given sentence:

No sooner she left the room than her baby started to cry. 

Detailed Solution for Test: Conjunctions- 2 - Question 7

Conjunctions are words that link other words, phrases, or clauses together.
The structure no sooner is used to talk about something that happens immediately after something else. When no sooner comes at the beginning of a sentence, we use inverted word order. That means the auxiliary verb comes before the subject. The conjunction 'No sooner ---- than' is also used to denote simultaneous actions. The given sentence depicts that as soon as she left the room, her baby started to cry immediately. These two activities take place almost simultaneously. There is no real time difference between them. Thus Option B is correct. Option D, as well as Option C, can be ruled out as 'Then' indicates 'in that case'. We use 'then' with 'if' to talk about cause and effect but it cannot be used in association with 'no sooner' which is used in case of an event happening immediately after something else. When no sooner is used in the front position, we invert the order of the auxiliary verb and subject. Option A is incorrect as the auxiliary verb 'had' is missing after no sooner.

Test: Conjunctions- 2 - Question 8

Choose the option that best fills in the blank:

I am visiting for no other reason _____ to see that you are well.

Detailed Solution for Test: Conjunctions- 2 - Question 8

'No other than' is used to single out a thing, or person, here it means 'nothing else', and refers to the reason "to see that you are well", apart from which there was no other reason for the speaker to visit. Hence from the options, 'than' follows 'no other' as the phrase 'no other than' has a combined meaning of emphasis over something, which cannot be replaced by any other words. Hence option C is correct. 'But' as a preposition, refers to an exception, it usually pairs up with 'none', referring to a person. It does not pair up with 'no other', hence option A is incorrect. 'As' as an adverb is used to refer to an extent of something, as a conjunction it refers to manner or cause, none of these relate to the given sentence. 'As' does not combine with 'no other' to place the required emphasis on the reason, hence option B is incorrect. 'Whether' expresses a choice or a doubt between two things, there is no choice in the given sentence hence option D is incorrect.

Test: Conjunctions- 2 - Question 9

Choose the option that best fills in the blank:

Do not open the window lest the rain _____ come in.

Detailed Solution for Test: Conjunctions- 2 - Question 9

A conjunction combines or connects two sentences as one. They can be a word or a phrase (like even if, as well as, etc). In the given sentence 'lest' is a subordinating conjunction, we need to find the suitable verb that complies with it. 'Lest' refers to a purpose or reason, it means 'to avoid the risk of something', here it expresses the purpose 'to avoid the rain from coming in'. 'Lest' is always followed by the verb 'should' when they work as a pair, hence option A is correct. 'Can' refers to an ability, but here the event 'rain...come in' is a possibility, hence option B is incorrect. 'Will' refers to a future event that's definite to take place, whereas the given sentence does not express a future event, but a possibility, hence option C is incorrect. 'May' refers to something that is optional, it may or may take place or be chosen, but 'lest' is only followed by 'should', this construction cannot be altered, hence option D is incorrect.

Test: Conjunctions- 2 - Question 10

Fill in the blank with a suitable option:

Do not walk on those stones lest you ______ trip and fall.

Detailed Solution for Test: Conjunctions- 2 - Question 10

'Lest' is defined as something done in order to avoid an undesirable consequence. Lest is always followed by subjunctive mood, usually in either the present or future tense. The future subjunctive would employ the auxiliary word 'should'. Thus, according to the usage rules, option D is the correct answer.
