Option 1 is incorrect because with 'I' + v1 will be correct. It is in verb + ing form which does not fit here.
Option 2 is the correct answer as the reason is stated above.
Option 3 is in the past tense. So it is incorrect for the given sentence, which is in the future tense.
Option 4 is also incorrect as "intends" is incorrect here.
Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.

'It' is used to refer to a place, animal or thing.

For example:
It is blue in colour.
'They' is used to refer to two or more people or things. 

For example:
They were in the room a minute ago.
'Them' is used as the object of a verb or preposition to refer to two or more people.

They have taken their families with them.

Here, a basic understanding of prepositions is important to answer this question.

In the given blank, "with" will be used because it is showing the connection with something (in this case developing software).

So the correct preposition will be "with"; and the sentence will be,

His new job is connected with developing software for teaching.
Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.

The first thing is to understand the tense of the sentence. The given sentence is in past perfect tense so the answer should satisfy the tense of the statement.

The correct answer will be "had seen the accident occur" which makes the statement grammatically correct.

The man who had seen the accident occur telephoned the police.
Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.

In the given sentence, the first mistake to be noticed is preposition and then the verb form which is wrong too.
The correct sentence will be as follows:
It is not wise to rely on anybody too much.

One can also notice that in option 1 and option 2 has mistakes in the preposition part.
Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.

The facility of baking from anywhere and anytime is not a negative thing thus option 2 is eliminated. The word 'intervention' means 'interference' and cannot be used here. 'Convenience' which means 'ease' fits here correctly. Option 4 does not convey a proper meaning.

The sentence talks about human error being reduced to a great extent which can be understood from the part 'if not eliminated.' Thus option 2 fits here correctly conveying the meaning that errors have not been eradicated totally but have been decreased. The other words do not convey any meaning.

Records are kept or maintained electronically thus option 1 is the correct word. The other words do not make much sense here. The word 'challenged' is irrelevant in this context.

The previous sentence talks about keeping or maintaining records thus 'analyze' conveys the correct meaning here. Data is easily analyzed with the help of these records. The other words do not convey any meaning.

The preposition 'for' is correct here as it indicates the reason. The other preposition cannot be placed here. Option 4 is the correct answer.

The correct answer is option 1.

P would be the first part of the arrangement as it introduces the subject. 

T follows P end with 'now' which implies that there need to be more adjectives regarding 'linguistic chauvinism'.

R follows T as it defines 'linguistic chauvinism'.

Q follows sentence T as it fits grammatically after 'contributing to'. 

This leaves us with  S which becomes the final part.

Therefore, the most logical and coherent way to form a sentence from the given options is option 1, i.e., PTRQS. It would make a sentence like this:

Linguistic chauvinism, now modernised and globalised, is a powerful force contributing to the mass disappearance of languages and cultures, an extinction event with fundamental and incalculable political ramifications.

The correct answer is option 2.

P would be the first part of the arrangement as it introduces the subject. 

T follows P as it explains more about the 'podcast' introduced in P.

S follows T as it adds the verb 'remove' after 'to' in T.

Q follows  S as it fits grammatically after 'from' in  S. 

This leaves us with R which becomes the final part.

Therefore, the most logical and coherent way to form a sentence from the given options is option 2, i.e., PTSQR. The final sentence will be:

I was on a tech podcast discussing Google's decision to remove links to revenge porn from its search results when victims request it.

The correct answer is option 2.

The sentence to follow the given sentence is P as it fits most meaningfully.

The sentence that follows P is R which tells us about the cause of the death of his mother.

This leaves us with Q to be the last sentence of the arrangement.

Therefore, the most logical and coherent way of forming a sentence from the given options is option 2, i.e., PRQ.

The sentence would be:
My very photogenic mother died in a freak accident when I was three.

The given sentence is in Passive Voice, so we need to change it into Active Voice.

The sentence contains Future tense with ‘going to’ phrase. Following should be the structure of the sentence in Active Voice:

Subject + is + going to + V-1 + Object
Option 1 follows the given structure.
Hence, option 1 is the correct answer.

The sentence is in INDIRECT SPEECH. We need to convert it into DIRECT SPEECH.

The given sentence contains two parts connected by conjunction ‘and’. The first part is in ‘Past Continuous tense’, while the second is in ‘Simple past tense’. Therefore, Direct Speech sentence will have ‘Present Continuous tense’ and ‘Simple Present tense’ respectively.

Option 1 is wrong because incorrect ‘reporting verb’ is used.
Option 3 is wrong because incorrect ‘pronoun’ is used.
Option 4 is wrong because the word ‘out’ is missing here.
Option 2 is the correct answer.

Note : In number series sum of two consecutive prime numbers are added in the previous number.

Hence, the wrong term is J48.

The pattern followed here is as follows :

259 + 19 → 278 + 38 → 316 + 57 → 373 + 76 → 449

Hence, 449 is the next term in the series.
