The suitable adverb of time in the given sentence must mean 'until the point in discussion'. The person in the sentence had always played the guitar as accompaniment till this day- the point in discussion, but today he was to play a solo.

Therefore Option A 'Hitherto' is the correct option.

'Herein' means inside or within.

These options B, C, and D indicate place, time, and reason respectively and not mean 'until the point of time in discussion'.

Hence option A is the correct option.

Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb Clauses - 1 - Question 9
Here, 'almost' as an adverb of degree implies not quite. The sentence talks about the oranges that are 'not quite' ripe.

Thus' as an adverb is incorrect because it implies in this way; like this. 'Enough' as a determiner is incorrect because it is used before plural or uncountable nouns to mean ‘as many or as much as somebody needs or wants.
Test: Adverb Clauses - 1 - Question 10

Choose the option that best corrects the sentence at the underlined point:

The story is too good.

Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb Clauses - 1 - Question 10
The correct answer is Option (a)

The given sentence means to say that the story is so good that it cannot be true.

Thus Option B- 'only good' is the incorrect option because it does not really express the degree of how good the story is.

'So' as an adverb of degree is always followed by 'that'. The correct usage would, therefore, be 'so good that...' Hence option C is not the correct answer.

Too good' is incomplete and incorrect as the expression of degree using 'too' is always followed by 'to be...' Therefore Option D is incorrect.

Option A satisfies all the conditions- it expresses the degree of how good the story is. It is; therefore, the correct option.

Test: Adverb Clauses - 1 - Question 11

Fill in the blank with the most suitable option:

Though they started with plenty of money, they______spent it on chocolate that they ate within a day.

Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb Clauses - 1 - Question 11
The given sentence begins with "though", which is a conjunction that combines two clauses that have opposite or contrast meanings. The blank in the second clause, after the comma, is to be filled by a word that makes that clause contrast to the first clause. "They started with plenty of money", but they did something in a way that they spent all of it on chocolate. "Spent" is a verb, hence a word that describes the manner of that action is required. Adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, and other adverbs, hence an adverb is required. From the given options, 'foolishly' fits the sentence, because even though they had a lot of money, they were foolish to spend it all on chocolate, these are two contrasting ideas, hence option B is correct. Wisely' is also an adverb, but it is not contrast in meaning, when it's placed in the sentence it means that they had money and they were wise to spend it on chocolate, but their action isn't wise and 'though' makes it clear that a contrasting word is required. Hence option A is incorrect. 'Quick' and 'beautiful' are adjectives as they modify nouns, they do not modify adverbs. For example in 'a quick run', 'a beautiful sky', 'quick' modifies the noun 'run' and 'beautiful' modifies the noun 'sky'. Adjectives don't modify adverbs, hence options C and D are incorrect.
Test: Adverb Clauses - 1 - Question 12

Form the adverb of the following word:

sad

Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb Clauses - 1 - Question 12
An adverb is a word or phrase that qualifies or changes an adjective, verb, or another adverb, to express a relation of a situation, cause, etc.

The correct answer is C) sadly as it ends with 'ly' and is spelled correctly.

Options A, B, and D are wrong as 'sadder' is a comparative adjective, 'saddest; is superlative adjective', and The word is misspelled respectively.

Test: Adverb Clauses - 1 - Question 13

Choose the option that completes the sentence correctly:

The class is _______loud today.

Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb Clauses - 1 - Question 13
'Loud' is an adjective and the word that describes an adjective is called an adverb. The adverb that best fits into the blank is option C) terribly which is an adverb of manner.
Test: Adverb Clauses - 1 - Question 14

Choose the correct adverb from the options given below:

She has_______completed her degree course.

Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb Clauses - 1 - Question 14
An adverb is a word or group of words that modifies verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs and answers questions such as how, when, where, why, how much, how often, etc. It is sometimes difficult to identify adverbs in a sentence because they can be found anywhere in the sentence.

The options given are all adverbs of time which answer the question 'how often?'

The sentence mentions about 'completion of degree course'.

From the given options, 'often' indicates a frequent occurrence of an event, 'daily' indicates the event occurring every day, 'seldom' indicates the rare occurrence of an event. Therefore, neither of these words can be used to indicate when a degree was completed. Therefore, the most apt answer is option A) just which indicates an event occurred recently.

Test: Adverb Clauses - 1 - Question 15

Name the part of speech of the underlined word in the following sentence:

It weighs about a pound.

Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb Clauses - 1 - Question 15
The word 'about' in the above sentence tells us approximately how much 'it' weighs. Weighs is a verb and since 'about' tells us about the verb in the sentence, it will be an adverb. Therefore option A is the correct answer.

An adjective qualifies the noun or the pronoun in a sentence. 'About' is not an adjective as it does not qualify the pronoun 'it'. Hence, option B is incorrect.

'About' is not used instead of a noun in the above sentence. Since pronouns are the words which are used instead of a noun, 'about' is not a pronoun.

It is also not a preposition as prepositions in a sentence relate a noun or a pronoun with the other words.

'About Does not relate either the pronoun 'it or the noun 'pound with the other words in the sentence. Hence, options C and D are incorrect.
