Q. After looking for the bag for about two hours she finally had to find it under the bed.

Detailed Solution for SSC CHSL Mock Test -1 - Question 3

The underlined part is incorrect here. The verb 'found' in the past tense is correct as the sentence is constructed in the simple past tense. Thus, Option 3 is the correct answer.

SSC CHSL Mock Test -1 - Question 4

In the following questions, some part of the sentence is underlined. Which of the options given below the sentence should replace the part underlined to make the sentence grammatically correct? If the sentence is correct as it is given then choose option 4 ‘No Replacement’ as the answer.

Q. As she had visited quite number of places, she knew the routes well.

Detailed Solution for SSC CHSL Mock Test -1 - Question 4

The underlined part should have the article 'a' to signify that the number was a large one. 'Quite a number' is the correct phrase to be used here.
Thus, option 2 is thus the correct answer.

SSC CHSL Mock Test -1 - Question 5

A sentence has been given in Active/Passive Voice. Out of the four alternatives suggested, select the one which best expresses the same sentence in Passive/Active Voice.

Q. Penelope inserted her car keys into her house door by mistake.

Detailed Solution for SSC CHSL Mock Test -1 - Question 5

The original sentence is in the active tense, this has to be converted to passive voice. Here the verb form can be kept the same, option 1 does not mention the fact that she did what she did ‘by mistake’ and thus, is wrong. Option 2 changes the verb form unnecessarily and is also not in the correct format for a passive voice sentence. Option 3 although structured correctly changes the object of the sentence, ‘car keys’ become ‘house keys’ and ‘house door’ becomes ‘car door’.
This makes option 4 the correct option. 

SSC CHSL Mock Test -1 - Question 6

In the following question, a sentence has been given in Direct/Indirect speech. Out of the four alternatives suggested, select the one which best expresses the same sentence in Indirect/Direct speech.  

Q. Richard yelled at Julia for spending too much time in the hot tub.

Detailed Solution for SSC CHSL Mock Test -1 - Question 6

In Direct speech, the message is conveyed on the words of the author or concerned person.

In Indirect speech, the message in conveyed in our words.

When we convert indirect speech to direct speech we add inverted commas. 

Some notable changes that were made during this conversion were - the exclamation point was added

Both the subject switch places

A comma is added after 'Julia'

So, the correct answer would be -

“Julia, you are spending too much time in the hot tub!” Richard yelled.

Thus, option 2 is the correct option.

Detailed Solution for SSC CHSL Mock Test -1 - Question 7

The word 'talk' would be incorrect in the second blank as 'debate' is something which is like an oral fight. Option 3 has the words which fit in the sentence correctly. The other words cannot be placed here. The word 'fury' means 'anger; wrath.'

SSC CHSL Mock Test -1 - Question 8

Fill in the blanks with the correct words.

Q. The man travelled from place to place _________ folk tales to _________ his songs.

Detailed Solution for SSC CHSL Mock Test -1 - Question 8

The word here has to be a verb. Option 4 does not convey a logical meaning. Option 2 conveys a proper meaning. The man listened to folk tales of places and used them for composing his songs.
