SSC MTS Practice Test -1 - Question 1
Save

In the following question, one part of the sentence may have an error. Find out which part of the sentence has an error. If the sentence is free from error, click the 'No error' option.

Q. The remaining 150 House of Representatives (A) / seats are allocated according to a complex (B) / formula involved the total number of votes for each party. (C) / No Error (D)

Detailed Solution for SSC MTS Practice Test -1 - Question 1

The error lies in part C.
The sentence uses the incorrect form ‘involved'.

Since the main verb of the sentence is 'allocated' and there are no other conjunctions present to join the sentences meaningfully, the given verb cannot be in its simple past tense form.

To show the logical and grammatical continuation intended in a sentence, the continuous/ progressive form of the verb, 'involving' is used.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 3.

SSC MTS Practice Test -1 - Question 2
Save

Read each sentence to find out whether there is any grammatical error in it. The error, if any will be in one part of the sentence. If there is no error choose option 4 ‘No error’ as the answer.

Q. I hope you will (1)/ show off on time and (2)/ won't delay like last time.(3)/ No error(4)

Detailed Solution for SSC MTS Practice Test -1 - Question 2

The phrasal verb 'show off' means 'to brag about something' which does not fit here. The correct phrasal verb is 'show up' which means 'to appear.' Thus the error lies in part 2 of the sentence. It should read as:'..show up on time and..'

SSC MTS Practice Test -1 - Question 3
Save

In the following sentence, a part of the sentence is underlined. Below are given alternatives to the underlined part, which may improve the sentence. Choose the correct alternative. In case no improvement is needed, choose the option ‘No improvement’.

Q. Having his fill of the water, the tiger soon moved away from the stream. 

Detailed Solution for SSC MTS Practice Test -1 - Question 3

The sentence uses the form Having, which is incorrect and needs improvement.

Using the present participle 'having' does not fit with the subsequent simple past tense verb 'moved'.

Since the second verb is in past tense, the previous action must have happened before the action indicated by the verb. So, we must use the past perfect tense here.

Both 'having taken' and 'having had' are viable answers here.

But; using 'Having had' also forms the phrase 'Having one's fill'(or stock of something).

Having one's fill - To be satisfied with the amount of something that one possesses or consumes.

The only alternative that improves the sentence is Having had.

None of the other alternatives can make the sentence meaningful.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 2.

SSC MTS Practice Test -1 - Question 4
Save

Detailed Solution for SSC MTS Practice Test -1 - Question 4

The sentence suggests that the blank should contain a word that means 'of a certain quality', which everyone disliked.

This is only shown by 'such', which means 'of the type'.

'So' means 'as a result of', which is not appropriate here.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 1.

The sum of present ages of A and B is 63 years. The ratio of their ages 3 years later will be 11 : 12. What is the present age (in years) of A?
Detailed Solution for SSC MTS Practice Test -1 - Question 28

Let x years be the present age of A & y years be the present age of B.
Sum of present ages = 63 → x + y = 63 …. Equation (1)
Then, After 3 years
Age of A = x + 3
Age of B = y + 3
Ratio= x + 3/y + 3 = 11/12
By solving it we get:
12x -11y = -3 …… Equation (2)
By solving equation (1) and equation (2) we get:
x = 30 & y = 33.
Hence, the present age of A is 30 years.
