Test: Adverb - Question 13
Save

He is (a)/ enough kind (b)/to help (c)/everybody in need. (d)/No error. (e)
Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb - Question 13

The error in the given sentence is in part B, "enough kind."
Explanation:
- The phrase "enough kind" is incorrect because the word "enough" is used to indicate sufficiency or adequacy, usually followed by a noun or adjective.
- In this case, "kind" is an adjective, and it doesn't require the word "enough" before it. It is sufficient to use "He is kind" to convey the intended meaning.
- Therefore, the correct phrase should be "He is kind" instead of "He is enough kind."
The corrected sentence would be:
He is kind to help everybody in need.
Test: Adverb - Question 14
Save

When I (a)/ got home (b)/I was (c)/too exhausted. (d)/No error. (e)
Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb - Question 14
Explanation:
The error in this sentence lies in part D, "too exhausted." Let's analyze each part of the sentence to understand why:
A: "When I" - This part of the sentence is grammatically correct. It introduces the time frame or condition.
B: "got home" - This part of the sentence is also correct. It describes the action of arriving at home.
C: "I was" - This part of the sentence is correct as well. It establishes the subject and verb agreement.
D: "too exhausted." - The word "too" is unnecessary in this context. The correct word to use here is "so." The correct phrase should be "so exhausted."
E: "No error." - This option is incorrect since there is an error in part D.
To correct the sentence, we should replace "too" with "so." The corrected sentence would be: "When I got home, I was so exhausted."
Key Points:
- The error lies in part D, "too exhausted."
- The correct phrase should be "so exhausted."
- The corrected sentence is: "When I got home, I was so exhausted."
Test: Adverb - Question 15
Save

Spot the error:

 I found this bangle while digging in the backyard. I don’t know who it belonged to.
Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb - Question 15

d) who it belonged to

It should be ‘to whom it belonged’. The sentence should read: I don’t know to whom it belonged. When the relative pronoun is the object of the relative clause, we use whom instead of who. Note that, in this case, the preposition normally goes before whom.

Test: Adverb - Question 16
Save

Inspite of working very (a) / neat & careful he (b) / could not win even (c) / the third prize.(d)/  No error.(e)
Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb - Question 16
Error Analysis:
The error in the given sentence lies in part (B).
Corrected Sentence:
Inspite of working very carefully, he could not win even the third prize.
Explanation:
The error in the given sentence can be corrected by making the following changes:
- Remove the word "neat" as it is grammatically incorrect in this context. The correct word to use here is "carefully".
- Add a comma after "careful" to separate the introductory phrase from the main clause.
- Remove the ampersand symbol "&" before "careful" as it is not necessary and doesn't contribute to the meaning of the sentence.
- Remove the period at the end of the sentence and replace it with a comma, as the sentence continues after "the third prize".
The corrected sentence is: Inspite of working very carefully, he could not win even the third prize.
Test: Adverb - Question 17
Save

Watch how careful the (a) / sparrow knits the straws (b) / into one another (c) / to form a nest.(d)/ No error.(e)

‘Careful’ should be replaced with ‘carefully’

Test: Adverb - Question 18
Save

I did not know (a)/ hardly anyone in (b) / the city and (c) / so felt lonely.(d) / No error.(e)
Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb - Question 18
Error Analysis:
The error in the given sentence lies in part (B).
Explanation:
The phrase "hardly anyone" is used to indicate that there were very few people in the city whom the speaker knew. However, the sentence is currently suggesting the opposite meaning, i.e., that the speaker knew hardly anyone in the city.
To correct this error, we need to replace "hardly anyone" with "hardly knew anyone" to convey the intended meaning that the speaker knew very few people in the city.
Corrected Sentence:
I did not know hardly knew anyone in the city and so felt lonely.
Test: Adverb - Question 19
Save

He has no (a) / time to read novels (b) / and no (c) / desire neither.(d)/ No error. (e)
Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb - Question 19
Error Analysis:
The error in this sentence lies in the use of the word "neither" in part (d).
Explanation:
The word "neither" is used to show a negative correlation between two items or ideas. However, in this sentence, the word "no" is already used to express a negative statement. Therefore, using "neither" is redundant and incorrect.
Corrected Sentence:
He has no time to read novels and no desire either.
Explanation:
The corrected sentence removes the word "neither" and replaces it with "either" to maintain the negative correlation between the two ideas (no time and no desire).
Additional Note:
The phrase "no desire either" can also be written as "neither does he desire" or "nor does he desire" to convey the same meaning.
Test: Adverb - Question 20
Save

I meet him (a) / often near the (b) / District (c) / Library. (d)/ No error.(e)
Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb - Question 20

The correct option is B.
‘Often’ should be used with ‘i’.

Test: Adverb - Question 21
Save

seldom visited his (a) / He has not  (b) / parents since he (c) / left this place.(d) / No error.
Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb - Question 21
Error Analysis:
The given sentence is grammatically incorrect. Let's analyze the errors in each part of the sentence:
A: "seldom visited his" - This part of the sentence is correct and does not contain any error.
B: "He has not" - This part of the sentence is incomplete and lacks the verb that should follow "has not". It needs to be connected to the next part of the sentence.
C: "parents since he" - This part of the sentence is grammatically correct and does not contain any error.
D: "left this place." - This part of the sentence is correct and does not contain any error.

To rectify the error and make the sentence grammatically correct, we need to connect part B with part C. Therefore, the correct formation should be:
"He has not visited his parents since he left this place."
Corrected Sentence:
Seldom visited his parents since he left this place. (Option B)
Test: Adverb - Question 22
Save

- This part of the sentence is correct.

Test: Adverb - Question 23

What to talk (a) / of tea they did (b) / not offer us (c) / even water. (d) / No error.(e)
Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb - Question 23
Error Analysis:
The error in the given sentence is in part (a) "What to talk".
Explanation:
The phrase "What to talk" is grammatically incorrect and does not make sense in the given sentence.
Corrected Sentence:
To correct the error, we can rephrase the sentence as follows:
- What should we talk about (a)
- They did not offer us (c)
- even water (d)
- No error (e)

- What should we talk about (a)
- of tea they did (b)

Test: Adverb - Question 24
Save

It is a pity that (a) / our leaders are (b) / misusing our hardly (c) / won liberty. (d) / No error.(e)
Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb - Question 24
Error Analysis:
The error in the given sentence is in part (C).
Explanation:
The word "hardly" is used incorrectly in the sentence. "Hardly" means barely or scarcely, and it is an adverb that cannot be used to modify a noun like "liberty." In this context, the correct word to use is "hard-earned," which means something that has been achieved through great effort or struggle.
The correct sentence should be:
"It is a pity that our leaders are misusing our hard-earned liberty."
Corrected Sentence:
It is a pity that (a) / our leaders are (b) / misusing our hard-earned (c) / liberty. (d) / No error.(e)
Test: Adverb - Question 25
Save

We seldom or (a) / ever go to movie (b) / these days because we (c) / don’t like moving out. (d) / No error.
Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb - Question 25

The error in the given sentence is in part B: "ever go to movie".
Explanation:
- The article "a" is missing before the word "movie". It should be "a movie" instead of "movie".
- The word "movie" should be in plural form as the sentence implies going to movies in general. It should be "go to movies" instead of "go to movie".
Corrected Sentence:
We seldom or ever go to movies these days because we don't like moving out.
Note: The other parts of the sentence are grammatically correct and do not contain any errors.
Test: Adverb - Question 26
Save

The teacher refused (a) / to consider him (b) / as an (c) / honest boy. (d) / No error. (e) 
Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb - Question 26

The error in the given sentence lies in part (c), "as an". Here's the correct sentence:
The teacher refused to consider him an honest boy.
Explanation:
In this sentence, the teacher refused to consider him as an honest boy. The word "an" is unnecessary and incorrect because it is used before a noun that does not follow. Here's a breakdown of the corrections made in each part:
A: The teacher refused - This part of the sentence is correct.
B: to consider him - This part of the sentence is correct as well. The teacher refused to consider him.
C: as an - This is the incorrect part of the sentence. The phrase "as an" is unnecessary and should be removed.
D: honest boy - This part of the sentence is correct. The teacher refused to consider him an honest boy.
E: No error - This option is incorrect as there is an error in part (c).
Therefore, the correct answer is option (c) - "as an".
Test: Adverb - Question 27
Save

I finished/ the three fourth of the work/ in a record /period of four days/No error
Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb - Question 27
Error Analysis:
The error in the given sentence lies in the phrase "the three fourth of the work" which should be corrected.

To correct the error, we need to change "the three fourth of the work" to "three-fourths of the work".
The corrected sentence will be:
"I finished three-fourths of the work in a record period of four days."
Explanation:
- The original sentence has a grammatical error in the phrase "the three fourth of the work".
- The correct way to express this is "three-fourths of the work", where "three-fourths" is the correct fraction form.
- The fraction "three-fourths" indicates that three out of four parts of the work were completed.
- The phrase "in a record period of four days" suggests that the work was completed in a short amount of time.
- Therefore, the corrected sentence is: "I finished three-fourths of the work in a record period of four days."
Test: Adverb - Question 28
Save

She always boasts (a) / of her melodious voice (b) / but she does not (c) / know to sing at all. (d) / No error.(e)
Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb - Question 28

The error is in part (D) of the sentence.
The correct sentence would be: "but she does not know how to sing at all."
Here is a breakdown of the errors in the sentence:
- Part (A): "She always boasts" - This part of the sentence is grammatically correct.
- Part (B): "of her melodious voice" - This part of the sentence is also grammatically correct.
- Part (C): "but she does not" - This part of the sentence is grammatically correct.
- Part (D): "know to sing at all." - There is an error in this part of the sentence. The correct phrase should be "know how to sing at all."
The corrected sentence would read: "She always boasts of her melodious voice, but she does not know how to sing at all."
Therefore, the error is in part (D), and the given answer choice is correct.
Test: Adverb - Question 29

Test: Adverb - Question 30
Save

She adapted (a) / quick to (b) / any (c) / situation. (d) / No error (e)
Detailed Solution for Test: Adverb - Question 30
Explanation:
The error in the given sentence is in part (b), "quick to." The correct phrase should be "quickly to" in order to show the manner of adaptation. The adverb "quickly" is used to modify the verb "adapted," indicating how she adapted to any situation.
The correct sentence should be:
She adapted quickly to any situation.
Corrected Sentence:
She adapted quickly to any situation.
Note:
The rest of the sentence is grammatically correct, and there are no errors in parts (a), (c), (d), or (e).
