Detailed Solution for Test: Verb- 2 - Question 5

The person and number of the verb is always the same as that of the subject of the sentence.
Option B is correct. The subject "I" is first person singular. Thus, it requires a first person singular verb, namely, "speak".
Option A is incorrect since "speaks" is not first person. It is third person.
Option C is incorrect as "speaking" is incomplete. It should be "am speaking".
Option D is incorrect as the answer lies in B.

Test: Verb- 2 - Question 7

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
Ram along with his friends _____ going to the cinema. [Basic]

Detailed Solution for Test: Verb- 2 - Question 7

Whenever the main subject of the sentence is followed by words or phrases like: and not, as well as, along with, together with, etc., the verb will be used according to the first subject of the sentence. 
Here, as we can see, the phrase 'along with' has been used, so we'll use the verb according to the first subject, i. e. Ram. 
Option A 'were' is incorrect. Ram is a singular subject and 'were' is used for plural subjects when a sentence is given in the past tense. 
Option B 'are' is incorrect. Ram is a singular subject and 'are' is used for plural subjects. Therefore, we can't use 'are' here.
Option C 'was' is the correct answer. Ram is a singular subject and 'was' is used for a singular subject. Also, it is used when the sentence is given in the past tense. Here, as no adverb of time is given we may consider this sentence to be in any tense (Past, present, or future). 
Option D 'has' is incorrect. 'Has' is used for singular subjects but the phrase 'has going' is incorrect as 'has' is either followed by the third form of the verb or by 'been' and a present participle. 

Test: Verb- 2 - Question 8

Complete the following dialogue by choosing the correct form of the verb in the present tense:
Kamal: The jacket ______  too long.

Detailed Solution for Test: Verb- 2 - Question 8

When a subject is singular, the adjoining verb should be singular and when the subject is plural, the verb should also be plural. This agreement between the subject and the verb is called the subject-verb agreement. In the given sentence, "The jacket" is the subject, it's singular, hence a singular verb should be used. The verbs that end with an s are singular, whereas plural verbs do not end with s. For example, 'The jackets do not seem very long', here 'the jackets' is plural and 'seem' is a plural verb, it does not end with an s. "The jacket" is singular, hence 'seems' is the correct answer, 'seems' is a singular verb, hence option C is correct, B is incorrect. 'Is seeming' is incorrect because 'seeming' is either a gerund or a participle in the present tense, it's a verb-form and not a verb, hence option A is incorrect. 'Have seemed' is in the past tense, it's a plural verb, 'have' is used when the subject is plural, but here "the jacket" is singular, hence it won't be used and option D is incorrect.

Test: Verb- 2 - Question 9

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
Samuel, as well as his brothers, _________ coming today. [Basic]

Detailed Solution for Test: Verb- 2 - Question 9

Whenever the main subject of the sentence is followed by words or phrases like: and not, as well as, along with, together with, etc., the verb will be used according to the first subject of the sentence. 
Here, as we can see, the phrase 'as well as' has been used, so we'll use the verb according to the first subject, i. e. Samuel. 
Option A 'are' is incorrect. Samuel is a singular subject and 'are' is used for plural subjects. Therefore, we can't use 'are' here.|
Option B 'were' is incorrect. Samuel is a singular subject and the sentence is given in the present tense, as depicted by the adverb 'today'. 'Were' is used for plural subjects when a sentence is given in the past tense. 
Option C 'is' is the correct answer. Samuel is a singular subject and 'is' is used for a singular subject. Also, it is used when the sentence is given in the present tense. 
Option D 'have' is incorrect. 'Have' is used for plural subjects. Also, the phrase 'have coming' is incorrect as 'have' is either followed by the third form of the verb or by 'been' and a present participle. 

Test: Verb- 2 - Question 10

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate word.
The other boys or Henry ______ to blame. [Basic]

Detailed Solution for Test: Verb- 2 - Question 10

Whenever two subjects in a sentence are joined by connectors like or, either......or, neither...nor, etc., the verb will be used according to the nearest subject to the verb. 
Here, as we can see, the connector 'or' has been used, so we'll use the verb according to the nearest subject, i. e. Henry. 
Option A 'are' is incorrect. Henry is a singular subject and 'are' is used for plural subjects. Therefore, we can't use 'are' here.
Option B 'were' is incorrect. Henry is a singular subject and 'were' is used for plural subjects. 
Option C 'is' is the correct answer. Henry is a singular subject and 'is' is used for a singular subject. 
Option D 'will' is incorrect. The phrase 'will to blame' is grammatically incorrect. 'Will' should be followed by 'be' and the third form of the verb (here, blamed).
