SSC MTS Practice Test -3 - Question 1

In the following question, some part of the sentence may have errors. Find out which part of the sentence has an error and select the appropriate option. If a sentence is free from error, select 'No Error'.

Q. They had marched (1) / the whole journey (2) / on top speed. (3) / No Error (4)

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

The preposition 'on' is used to indicate proximity and position above or outside. Thus, we can see that 'on' does not fit the context of the sentence. Instead of 'on', the preposition 'at' should be used which is used to indicate an action. 

SSC MTS Practice Test -3 - Question 2

In the following question, some part of the sentence may have errors. Find out which part of the sentence has an error and select the appropriate option. If a sentence is free from error, select 'No Error'.

Q. You ordered (1) / the goods and so (2) / they have been send. (3) / No Error (4)

Detailed Solution for SSC MTS Practice Test -3 - Question 2

The word 'send' is grammatically incorrect because it is the present perfect tense of the verb. However, the sentence mentioned above is in the past tense. The word 'sent', which is the past participle of 'send' should be used in the (3) part of the sentence.

SSC MTS Practice Test -3 - Question 3

Which of the following words/phrases given below in the options should replace the phrase in undrline in the sentence to make it grammatically correct? If the sentence is correct as it is given then mark 'no error'.

Q. Bad habits ​grow unconsciously

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

The sentence is correct and does not require any edits. 

The sentence uses present tense to imply a common thing that takes place irrelevant 'all the time' or 'at any time'. 

Option 1 is rejected as it has 'shall' which is used for future tense and 'grew' which is the past form of the verb 'grow', together 'shall grew' makes no sense grammatically. 

Option 2 is rejected as the verb in present tense 'grows' does not satisfy the subject verb agreement as the subject, 'habits' is plural.

Option 3 is rejected as using the present continuous tense 'growing' in the sentence does not convey the same meaning and leaves the sentence incomplete.

SSC MTS Practice Test -3 - Question 4

Which of the following words/phrases given below in the options should replace the phrase in underline in the sentence to make it grammatically correct? If the sentence is correct as it is given then mark 'no error'.

Q. The early birds catches the worm.

Detailed Solution for SSC MTS Practice Test -3 - Question 4

According to the subject-verb agreement, a plural subject will have the plural verb form and the singular verb will have a singular verb form. 

If the sentence has a plural verb 'birds', the verb in the present tense will be 'catch' and if the sentence has a singular verb 'bird', the verb in the present tense will be 'catches', hence option 1 is incorrect and option 3 is correct.

Option 2 is rejected as 'will' is used in future tense and it is incorrect to use it with the past participle 'caught'.
Hence option 3 is the correct answer.  

SSC MTS Practice Test -3 - Question 5

In the following question, the sentence is given with a blank to be filled in with an appropriate word. Select the correct alternative out of the four and indicate it by selecting the appropriate option.

Q. All matter _______ indestructible. 

Detailed Solution for SSC MTS Practice Test -3 - Question 5

The word 'am' gets ruled-out for being grammatically incorrect as it is only used with the subject 'I'. Since the word 'matter' is singular, we cannot use 'are' or 'were' as they are used with plural words, making 'is' the right answer.
Hence option 2 is the correct answer.

SSC MTS Practice Test -3 - Question 6

In the following question, the sentence is given with a blank to be filled in with an appropriate word. Select the correct alternative out of the four and indicate it by selecting the appropriate option.

Q. We should profit _______ experience. 

Detailed Solution for SSC MTS Practice Test -3 - Question 6

The preposition 'of' means 'belonging to'. The preposition 'to' means 'towards'. The preposition 'above' is used for 'higher than'. None of these prepositions are fit for the blank, leaving 'from' as the correct answer.
Hence option 1 is the correct answer.

SSC MTS Practice Test -3 - Question 7

A passage is given below with five blanks labelled (A)-(E). Below the passage, four options are given for each blank. Choose the word that fits each blank most appropriately in the context of the passage, and mark the corresponding answer.

On November 8th, 2016, Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a dramatic __(A)__. In one go, he outlawed notes of Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 that constituted 86 percent of the country’s currency in __(B)__. It was perhaps India’s boldest policy experiment in over a quarter century.

A year later, a __(C)__ of sorts has emerged: while intellectuals and analysts in India have slammed the step, Indians at large have reacted positively to it. The usual explanation is that the economics and politics of demonetisation bear no __(D)__ with the idea of finding favour with citizens by virtue of the populist appeal of its moral logic. Lost in the noise are the modernising __(E)__ of a larger process that began with creating no-frill bank accounts for the underprivileged and has culminated—for the time being—in major tax reform, the Goods and Services Tax (GST). 

Q. Which of the following words most appropriately fits the blank labelled (A)?

Detailed Solution for SSC MTS Practice Test -3 - Question 7

The sentence mentions ‘made a dramatic’, therefore, ruling-out the word ‘abridgment’ which means 'to reduce or lessen' as it does not convey any meaning when used in the sentence. The words ‘accomplishment’ and 'achievement' disturb the meaning of the sentence. The word ‘announcement’ that means 'giving a formal public statement', fits the blank best. 

Hence the correct answer is option 2.

SSC MTS Practice Test -3 - Question 8

A passage is given below with five blanks labelled (A)-(E). Below the passage, four options are given for each blank. Choose the word that fits each blank most appropriately in the context of the passage, and mark the corresponding answer.

On November 8th, 2016, Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a dramatic __(A)__. In one go, he outlawed notes of Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 that constituted 86 percent of the country’s currency in __(B)__. It was perhaps India’s boldest policy experiment in over a quarter century.

A year later, a __(C)__ of sorts has emerged: while intellectuals and analysts in India have slammed the step, Indians at large have reacted positively to it. The usual explanation is that the economics and politics of demonetisation bear no __(D)__ with the idea of finding favour with citizens by virtue of the populist appeal of its moral logic. Lost in the noise are the modernising __(E)__ of a larger process that began with creating no-frill bank accounts for the underprivileged and has culminated—for the time being—in major tax reform, the Goods and Services Tax (GST). 

Q. Which of the following words most appropriately fits the blank labelled (B)?

Detailed Solution for SSC MTS Practice Test -3 - Question 8

The words ‘proclamation’ and ‘training’ cannot be used with respect to 'the country’s currency'. The word 'definition' does not fit the context of the sentence, therefore making ‘circulation’ as the best fit to fill the blank as it refers to the movement of the currency in the country.
Hence option 1 is the correct answer. 

SSC MTS Practice Test -3 - Question 9

A passage is given below with five blanks labelled (A)-(E). Below the passage, four options are given for each blank. Choose the word that fits each blank most appropriately in the context of the passage, and mark the corresponding answer.

On November 8th, 2016, Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a dramatic __(A)__. In one go, he outlawed notes of Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 that constituted 86 percent of the country’s currency in __(B)__. It was perhaps India’s boldest policy experiment in over a quarter century.

A year later, a __(C)__ of sorts has emerged: while intellectuals and analysts in India have slammed the step, Indians at large have reacted positively to it. The usual explanation is that the economics and politics of demonetisation bear no __(D)__ with the idea of finding favour with citizens by virtue of the populist appeal of its moral logic. Lost in the noise are the modernising __(E)__ of a larger process that began with creating no-frill bank accounts for the underprivileged and has culminated—for the time being—in major tax reform, the Goods and Services Tax (GST). 

Q. Which of the following words most appropriately fits the blank labelled (C)?

Detailed Solution for SSC MTS Practice Test -3 - Question 9

The sentence mentions ‘sorts’, which should be used as a hint while picking up the word fitting the blank. ‘Major’ and 'focused' does not make a proper sentence, when used with ‘sorts’, while the phrase 'reform of sorts' does not make any sense. The word ‘paradox’ fits the word ‘sorts’ along with appropriately conveying the meaning of the sentence too.
Hence the correct answer is option 4. 

SSC MTS Practice Test -3 - Question 10

A passage is given below with five blanks labelled (A)-(E). Below the passage, four options are given for each blank. Choose the word that fits each blank most appropriately in the context of the passage, and mark the corresponding answer.

On November 8th, 2016, Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a dramatic __(A)__. In one go, he outlawed notes of Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 that constituted 86 percent of the country’s currency in __(B)__. It was perhaps India’s boldest policy experiment in over a quarter century.

A year later, a __(C)__ of sorts has emerged: while intellectuals and analysts in India have slammed the step, Indians at large have reacted positively to it. The usual explanation is that the economics and politics of demonetisation bear no __(D)__ with the idea of finding favour with citizens by virtue of the populist appeal of its moral logic. Lost in the noise are the modernising __(E)__ of a larger process that began with creating no-frill bank accounts for the underprivileged and has culminated—for the time being—in major tax reform, the Goods and Services Tax (GST). 

Q. Which of the following words most appropriately fits the blank labelled (D)?

Detailed Solution for SSC MTS Practice Test -3 - Question 10

‘Dominated’ and 'illustration' do not make strong options to fit the blank as they are grammatically incorrect. The word 'vengeance' makes the sentence vague and thus, is omitted. The word ‘connection’ is the best fit for the blank as it conveys the most appropriate meaning.
Hence the correct answer is option 2. 

SSC MTS Practice Test -3 - Question 11

A passage is given below with five blanks labelled (A)-(E). Below the passage, four options are given for each blank. Choose the word that fits each blank most appropriately in the context of the passage, and mark the corresponding answer.

On November 8th, 2016, Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a dramatic __(A)__. In one go, he outlawed notes of Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 that constituted 86 percent of the country’s currency in __(B)__. It was perhaps India’s boldest policy experiment in over a quarter century.

A year later, a __(C)__ of sorts has emerged: while intellectuals and analysts in India have slammed the step, Indians at large have reacted positively to it. The usual explanation is that the economics and politics of demonetisation bear no __(D)__ with the idea of finding favour with citizens by virtue of the populist appeal of its moral logic. Lost in the noise are the modernising __(E)__ of a larger process that began with creating no-frill bank accounts for the underprivileged and has culminated—for the time being—in major tax reform, the Goods and Services Tax (GST). 

Q. Which of the following words most appropriately fits the blank labelled (E)?

Detailed Solution for SSC MTS Practice Test -3 - Question 11

‘Corruption’ and 'drubbing' gets omitted due to being grammatically incorrect. ‘Sentiment’ cannot be used as it does not convey proper meaning. ‘Features’ not just carries the required message fitting the sense of the statement, but also make the sentence meaningful.
Hence the correct answer is option 2.
