Q. All person in the world must pay attention to this fact.

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

All is a determiner pronoun that is used to denote a group of people. Since the sentence uses the word 'person' after the word all, it cannot be correct. There must be a word that can be applicable to the singular person which is given by 'every', which represents each single quantity of something. Therefore, the correct answer is option 1.

SSC CHSL Mock Test -3 - Question 4

SSC CHSL Mock Test -3 - Question 5

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

Q. Previously, she was one of the three Deputy Director-Generals supporting the Director-General in ________ all programmes.

Detailed Solution for SSC CHSL Mock Test -3 - Question 5

Option 3 is the correct answer because, 'overseeing' means 'supervising (a person or their work), especially in an official capacity'. The verb 'supporting' suggests that the next verb must also be in progressive form to form the parallelism.

Let us take an example to understand it better:

  • My mother is helping my brother in completing his homework.

Option 1 is wrong because, first form of verb is given which doesn't form a balance with the verb 'supporting'.

Option 2 is wrong because, participle form is given.

Option 4 is wrong because, second form of verb is given.

SSC CHSL Mock Test -3 - Question 6

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. My mother gave me the pen you saw earlier.

Detailed Solution for SSC CHSL Mock Test -3 - Question 6

The subject and object here are 'my mother' and 'The pen'. The adverb phrase 'you saw earlier' provides more information about 'the pen' and should be kept as it is. The subject and the object exchange places. The past tense verb gave would become was+ past participle form given. So, the correct option is option 2.

SSC CHSL Mock Test -3 - Question 7

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. The king was overpowered by the enemy.

Detailed Solution for SSC CHSL Mock Test -3 - Question 7

The sentence is present in passive voice. Here, the subject and object are 'The king' and the 'enemy', who would exchange places with each other. Since both the past participle and past tense form of the verb 'to overpower' is 'overpowered', it will be used in place of 'was+past participle of the verb'.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 3.

SSC CHSL Mock Test -3 - Question 8

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. The Judge asked the accused if he had been caught red-handed.

Detailed Solution for SSC CHSL Mock Test -3 - Question 8

Correct option- 1
Clearly, the sentence is an indirect speech, so it is changed into a direct speech. 

Present Perfect Changes to Past Perfect
a) Direct: "I have been to Gujarat", he told me.
b)  Indirect: He told me that he had been to Gujarat.

Correct sentence- The Judge said to the accused, "Have you been caught red handed?"

SSC CHSL Mock Test -3 - Question 9

Yusuf said to Dipti, ''I am a better bowler than you.''

Detailed Solution for SSC CHSL Mock Test -3 - Question 9

The rule when converting direct speech to indirect is to pay attention to each word and change it accordingly. The verb 'said' becomes 'told' in reported speech.

The sentence contains the first person indicative simple tense verb 'am', which, in reported speech becomes, third person indicative, simple past tense 'was'. Not plural 'were', as the noun is singular here.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 4.

SSC CHSL Mock Test -3 - Question 10

In the following question, an idiomatic expression or a proverb is underline. Select the alternative which best describes its use in the sentence.

Q. He is so hard headed that no one wants him in their team.

Detailed Solution for SSC CHSL Mock Test -3 - Question 10

The idiom 'hard headed' means 'stubborn' or 'unwilling to change an opinion or idea.' Thus option 1 is the correct answer.

SSC CHSL Mock Test -3 - Question 11

In the following question, out of the four alternatives, select the alternative which is the best substitute of the phrase.

Q. One who compiles a dictionary

Detailed Solution for SSC CHSL Mock Test -3 - Question 11

The meanings of the words are:
Imposter ⇒ a person who pretends to be someone else in order to deceive others, especially for fraudulent gain

Funambulist ⇒ a tightrope walker
Lexicographer ⇒ One who compiles a dictionary
Fanatical ⇒ filled with excessive and single-minded zeal
Thus option 3 is the correct answer.
