Note: The questions provided in this document are similar to the questions that were asked in the actual Olympiad exam. So, we recommend you study these for your Olympiad preparation.
Word and Structure Knowledge
Q1: Choose the word that is spelled correctly. (a) Elegant (b) Eligent (c) Iligant (d) Elegent
Solution:
Ans: (a)
Elegant is the correct spelling, which means having a refined beauty or grace.
The other options, Eligent, Iligant, and Elegent, are incorrect spellings.
Knowing the correct spelling is important for effective communication.
In summary, Elegant is the only option that is spelled correctly.
Q2: Choose the word that is spelled correctly. (a) Maners (b) Manners (c) Mannars (d) Munnres
Solution:
Ans: (b)
Manners refers to the way a person behaves towards others, especially in social situations.
It is important to use the correct spelling to convey the right meaning.
Options (a), (c), and (d) are incorrect spellings of the word.
Thus, the correct answer is (b) Manners.
Q3: Choose the synonym of discard. (a) Agree (b) Remove (c) Denote (d) Danger
Solution:
Ans: (b)
Discard means to throw something away or get rid of it.
The word remove also means to take something away or eliminate it.
Both words convey a similar idea of elimination or separation from a group.
Therefore, the correct synonym for discard is remove.
Q4: Choose the opposite of scold. (a) Scream (b) Yell (c) Approve (d) Upset
Solution:
Ans: (c)
Approve is the opposite of scold. When you scold someone, you are criticizing or reprimanding them for something they did wrong.
On the other hand, to approve means to express a positive response or agreement with someone's actions.
Thus, while scolding involves negative feedback, approving is about giving positive recognition.
Q5: Identify the word that functions as a verb. (a) General (b) Satisfy (c) Brutally (d) Wisdom
Solution:
Ans: (b)
Satisfy is the only option that acts as a verb, meaning to meet a need or desire.
The other choices are not verbs: General is a noun, Brutally is an adverb, and Wisdom is a noun.
Understanding the function of words helps in identifying verbs, which express actions or states.
Q6: What is the female counterpart of a drone? (a) Doe (b) Queen (c) Sow (d) Hen
Solution:
Ans: (b)
Queen is the term used to refer to the female in a bee colony, while a drone is a male bee.
In the context of bees, the drone is specifically the male, and the queen is the female responsible for reproduction.
Other options like doe and sow refer to female animals in different species, but not in relation to bees.
Thus, the correct answer is Queen, as it directly relates to the gender of a drone in the bee hierarchy.
Q7: Which of these cannot be divided into fragments? (a) Wood (b) Glass (c) Rock (d) Sky
Solution:
Ans: (d)
Among the options provided, the sky is the only one that cannot be physically broken into pieces.
Wood, glass, and rock are all solid materials that can be shattered or cut into smaller parts.
In contrast, the sky is an expanse of atmosphere and does not have a physical form that can be divided.
Thus, the correct answer is (d) Sky.
Q8: Which of these represents an emotion? (a) Happiness (b) Stars (c) Road (d) Question
Solution:
Ans: (a)
Happiness is an emotion that people experience, while the other options do not represent feelings.
Stars are celestial bodies, road refers to a path, and question is an inquiry.
Thus, among the choices, only happiness qualifies as a true feeling.
Choose the Correct Option to Fill in the Blank.(Question 9 to 15)
Q9: Rohan requested his mother to ___________ him science. (a) study (b) teach (c) learn (d) comprehend
Solution:
Ans: (b)
Teach is the appropriate word to fill in the blank, as it indicates the action of imparting knowledge.
In this context, Rohan is asking his mother to provide him with instruction in science.
The other options do not fit well: 'study' means to review material, 'learn' means to acquire knowledge, and 'comprehend' means to understand.
Thus, 'teach' is the best choice for the sentence.
Q10: Let ___________ help you carry these books. (a) I (b) me (c) my (d) you
Solution:
Ans: (b)
The correct word to fill in the blank is me. This is because me is the object of the verb "help." In English, we use the object pronoun when someone is receiving the action.
Using I would be incorrect here, as it is a subject pronoun, not suitable for this context.
My is a possessive pronoun and does not fit the sentence structure.
You would also not be correct, as it does not refer to the person who is being helped.
Q11: My aunt lives ___________ a hospital. (a) on (b) with (c) from (d) near
Solution:
Ans: (d)
Near is the correct preposition to indicate proximity to a location.
In this context, it means that the aunt's residence is close to the hospital.
Using "on," "with," or "from" would not accurately convey the idea of being close to the hospital.
Thus, "near" is the most appropriate choice for this sentence.
Q12: I met ___________ European in the market. (a) a (b) an (c) the (d) no article
Solution:
Ans: (a)
The word 'European' begins with a consonant sound despite starting with the vowel letter 'e'.
In English, we use 'a' before words that start with a consonant sound.
Using 'an' would be incorrect here because it is used for words that start with a vowel sound.
Thus, the correct choice is 'a European'.
Q13: I ordered a coffee ___________ a sandwich for lunch. (a) or (b) but (c) so (d) and
Solution:
Ans: (d)
The conjunction 'and' is used to connect two similar items, in this case, a coffee and a sandwich.
Using 'and' indicates that both items are included in the order.
Other options like 'or', 'but', and 'so' do not fit the context of ordering both a coffee and a sandwich.
Thus, 'and' is the correct choice to show that both items are being ordered together.
Q14: Seema didn't ___________ the idea of picnic. (a) liked (b) liking (c) like (d) dislikes
Solution:
Ans: (c)
When we use 'didn't', it indicates a negative past action.
In English, after 'didn't', we always use the base form of the verb.
Here, the correct base form is 'like', which means to enjoy or appreciate something.
So, the correct sentence is: "Seema didn't like the idea of picnic."
Q15: I can't stand when somebody is ___________. (a) happily (b) stay (c) joy (d) rude
Solution:
Ans: (d)
The correct answer is rude because it describes a behavior that is unpleasant or disrespectful.
When someone is rude, it can be very irritating and hard to tolerate.
Options like happily, stay, and joy do not fit the context of the sentence, as they do not describe negative behavior.
Thus, the word that best completes the sentence is rude, indicating a lack of manners.

Read the Passage and answer the question that follow (Question 21 to 25)
The game of football was invented in the mid-19th century. In the year 1863 rugby football and association football branched off and Football Association in England was established. However, China claims to have played the first version of football centuries ago. Both rugby football and association football were widely loved and played across the Atlantic. As rugby football came to be known as rugger and association football came to be known by the name, soccer in England, the Americans came up with their own version of the game and called it football. Charles Goodyear designed and crafted the very first vulcanised rubber football in the year 1855. Most of the footballs are now being made with rubber bladders. The first international association football match was played between Scotland and England in the year 1872. The match played by the national teams of England and Scotland was held at Scotland Cricket Club's ground located at Hamilton Crescent in Partick Scotland.
Q21: When was the sport of football created as per the text? (a) In 1872 (b) In the mid-19th century (c) In 1855 (d) In 1863
Solution:
Ans: (b)
The sport of football was established in the mid-19th century.
This period marks the beginning of organized football as we know it today.
It was a time when various forms of the game were being played and standardized.
Thus, the correct answer is (b) In the mid-19th century.
Q22: Which of the following countries asserts that it played the earliest form of football many centuries ago? (a) England (b) Scotland (c) America (d) China
Solution:
Ans: (d)
China is recognized for having a historical claim to the earliest version of football, known as "cuju," which dates back to ancient times.
This game involved kicking a ball through an opening and is considered a precursor to modern football.
While other countries like England and Scotland have rich football traditions, they do not claim to have originated the game.
Thus, the correct answer is China, as it has the oldest documented history related to football.
Q23: The first international association football match was played between _______. (a) England and Scotland (b) America and China (c) China and Scotland (d) England and China
Solution:
Ans: (a)
The first international match in association football took place in 1872.
This historic game was contested between Scotland and England.
It marked the beginning of international football competitions.
The match ended in a draw with a score of 0-0.
Q24: When did Charles Goodyear create the initial vulcanized rubber football? (a) In 1865 (b) In 1863 (c) In 1855 (d) In 1870
Solution:
Ans: (c)
Charles Goodyear was an inventor who made significant contributions to the development of rubber.
He designed the first vulcanized rubber football in the year 1855.
This innovation allowed the football to be more durable and suitable for play.
Vulcanization is a process that improves the elasticity and strength of rubber, making it ideal for sports equipment.
Q25: The association football later came to be known as _______ in England. (a) Rugger (b) Soccer (c) Match (d) Football
Solution:
Ans: (b)
Association football is the formal name for the sport we commonly refer to as soccer.
In England, the term soccer became popular to distinguish it from other types of football.
While rugby and rugger are related sports, they are different from association football.
Thus, the correct answer is soccer, which is widely used in many countries.
Spoken and Written Expression
Choose the most suitable option to complete each conversation. (Question 26 to 30)
Q26: Seema: Why don't you _______ the teacher? Rati: Yes, you are right. Let me. (a) Asking (b) Asked (c) Ask (d) Asks
Solution:
Ans: (c)
In the phrase "don't you," we need to use the base form of the verb.
The correct form here is "ask," which is the base form of the verb.
Using "asking," "asked," or "asks" would not fit grammatically in this context.
Thus, the correct choice is "ask."
Q27: Teacher: Answer this question _______ to win the quiz. (a) Fastly (b) Fast (c) Hard (d) Hardly
Solution:
Ans: (b)
The correct word to fill in the blank is fast. This is because it describes how quickly you should answer the question.
Fastly is not a standard adverb; the correct form is fast.
Using fast indicates that you need to respond quickly to win the quiz.
Q28: Raina: _______ did Jiya learn ballet? (a) What (b) Whom (c) When (d) Who
Solution:
Ans: (c)
When is used to ask about the time something happened.
In this case, the question is about the time Jiya learned ballet.
The other options do not fit because they ask about different subjects or objects.
Thus, the correct choice is When, as it directly relates to the timing of the event.
Q29: Rahul: Can you explain it to me? Don't beat _______ the bush. Akki: Be patient. (a) Off (b) Around (c) Near (d) Beside
Solution:
Ans: (b)
Beat around the bush is an expression that means to avoid getting to the main point.
In this context, Rahul is asking Akki to be direct and not to avoid the topic.
The phrase suggests that one should speak clearly and not waste time on unnecessary details.
So, the correct option is "around," which completes the idiom correctly.
Q30: Boss: Let's call _______ today's last meeting. Manager: Ok, sir. (a) Of (b) At (c) Under (d) Off
Solution:
Ans: (d)
Call off means to cancel a meeting or an event.
In this context, the boss is suggesting to cancel the last meeting of the day.
Using 'off' is the correct phrase here, as it is commonly used in English to indicate cancellation.
The other options do not fit the context of canceling a meeting.
Achievers Section
Q31: Choose the correct option to fill in the blank. In order to _______ the order, press the red button. (a) Selected (b) Used (c) Place (d) Got
Solution:
Ans: (c)
Place is the correct choice because we need the base form of the verb after 'to.'
Using 'to' indicates that we are talking about an action that needs to be performed.
Other options like 'selected,' 'used,' and 'got' do not fit grammatically in this context.
Thus, the sentence correctly reads: "In order to place the order, press the red button."
Q32: Choose the correct option to fill in the blank. Sumit takes _______ his grandfather. (a) On (b) After (c) Up (d) At
Solution:
Ans: (b)
Takes after is a phrase that means to resemble someone, usually a parent or ancestor.
In this context, it indicates that Sumit has similar traits or characteristics to his grandfather.
Choosing 'after' correctly conveys this meaning, while the other options do not fit in this context.
For example, 'takes on' or 'takes up' would imply different meanings that do not relate to resemblance.
Q33: Choose the word that is spelled correctly. (a) Accomodate (b) Acommodate (c) Accommodate (d) Acomodate
Solution:
Ans: (c)
Accommodate is the correct spelling of the word.

Correct spelling is essential for clear communication.
Q34: Choose the synonym of sleepy. (a) Lively (b) Heavily (c) Sparkly (d) Drowsy

Solution:
Ans: (b)
Suddenly is the appropriate adverb here, indicating an immediate desire.

Options like Then and How do not fit grammatically in this sentence.
