SSC MTS Practice Test -6 - SSC MTS / SSC GD MCQ

When two singular nouns joined by ‘and’ it requires a plural verb. So it should be written as --'are coming', thus the error is in part 2.

Article 'an' is added before the nouns with the sound of vowels. Here the sound of 'European' is of a consonant 'Y' (You). Thus, the correct article to be used is 'a'. '..to work in a European country..'

The titles of magazines or books are always considered as single and therefore need a singular verb to agree with it. Thus it should be written as 'is one of the most popular ' Also the noun 'magazine' should be in the plural form as it is stated that 'Filmfare' is one of the many magazines that are popular. Thus option 3 is the right answer.

The verb has to agree with the true subject, not with the intervening plural object of a preposition.

Here the 'bag' is the real subject and ' potatoes' is the object of a preposition 'of'.

Hence the verb needs to be in the present perfect tense as the action of disappearing has been completed.

Thus option 2 is the right answer and it should be written as 'The bag of potatoes has disappeared'.

Let us look into the meaning of the words given:
'Triennial' is an event occurring every three years.
'Biennial' is an event occurring every two years.
'Annual' is an event occurring every year.
'Quarterly' is an event occurring every four months.
So option 1 is the correct answer.

Let us look at the meaning of the words given:
Profanity ⇒ obscene language.
Tortured and Tormented ⇒ to harass someone.
Theology ⇒ the study of religion.
So option 2 is the right answer.

Let us look at the meaning of the given words:
'Petulant' ⇒ someone who behaves like a child and throws tantrums.
'Testy' and 'Irritable' ⇒ persons who get angry very quickly and are rude.
'Irascible' ⇒ short-tempered, crabby. In short, snapping at everyone.
Thus only option 2 'genial' which means pleasant, well-mannered and peaceful is the one which best expresses the opposite meaning of the given word.

Let us look at the meaning of the given options:
Premonition ⇒ an omen/ sign.
Foreboding ⇒ prediction/ prophesy.
Faithful and Loyal ⇒ to be steadfast, staunch.
Irritate ⇒ to make someone angry.
Thus option 1 is the right answer.

Let us look at the meaning of the given words:

'Sacrosanct' ⇒ sacred, exclusive.

'Sacred', 'Divine', 'Sanctified' ⇒ something that cannot be violated or disrespected. Thus all these words are synonyms of the given word.

However, 'blasphemous' means impious and disrespectful, hence option 4 is the one which best expresses the opposite meaning of the given word.

Let us look at the meaning of the given words:
Requisite ⇒ compulsory,
Mandatory ⇒ required, necessary.
Supplementary ⇒ add-on.
Voluntary ⇒ willingly.
Thus option 3 best expresses the meaning of the given word.

'A tall order' means a difficult task to perform, so option 2 is the correct answer.
Example sentence: To score four goals in one game is a tall order, even for him.

The meaning of the phrase shoot through is to leave a place very quickly especially in order to avoid someone or something.

Example : My wife shot through while I was left behind dealing with the police.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 4.

'Amorphous' is the right spelling and it means something which has no fixed form.

Example sentence: It is a brownish amorphous solid, which is insoluble in water.

Option 2 contains the correct spelling and it means to be confused about something or someone; doubtful.

Example sentence: Frank was ambivalent about his breakup with Jane.

'Advice' is a noun for help or information given.
'Advised' is a verb or the action of giving help or information to someone.
Said and spoke are the actions of telling something to someone.
So option 2 is the right answer.

Assent means approval which fits the context of the line perfectly.
Ascent means to climb high like a mountain.
Accent is to stress a point. It is also a particular way of speaking, specific to each community.
Advice is the counsel given to someone.
So option 2 is the right answer 

The sentence begins with the noun ‘Elections’ which ‘can be’ something and so ‘R’ is the next part. The dry affairs could be ‘dominated by numbers’ as the usage of ‘and’ after ‘affairs’ is incorrect and so ‘P’ is the next part. Finally the perfect word in sequence to ‘numbers and percentages’ is the word ‘tallies’ and so ‘Q’ is the last part. The correct sentence is ‘Elections globally can be dry affairs dominated by numbers, percentages and tallies.’

The suitable word after ‘now’ cannot be a preposition (by/of), it has to be the auxiliary verb (been), thus part 'R' is the first one. It is followed by ‘Q’ as the preposition to suit after consumers is ‘of’. Also, the preposition ‘by’ is used after mandated and hence ‘P’ is the last part. Option 4 is the correct answer.

The sentence is in active voice and has the ‘That Clause’. In this case, we use the helping verb ‘was’ and add it after ‘It’ proceeding with the V3 form of the main verb i.e. ‘said’. Hence 3rd option is the correct answer

The given sentence is in the direct speech. Since the given sentence is an interrogative one, therefore we use the reporting verb ‘asked’. The verb ‘want’ will be changed to its past tense ‘wanted’ while reporting. Notable we can simply write ‘asked me what I wanted’ as the pronoun ‘you’ changes to ‘I’ as per the object ‘me’. Thus, the correct answer is option 1.

The sentence talks about customers making transactions thus 'services' is the correct word to be used here. A bank would make the services online and not locations or lists. Only option 3 conveys the correct meaning. The word 'sites' means 'locations' or 'websites.'

The word 'extract' means 'remove or take out, especially by effort or force' and does not convey any meaning. Online services are handled by users , they cannot be decided or designed. Option 2 is the correct answer.

The correct verb here is 'was' as simple past tense is the correct tense here. The sentence talks about an activity which was completed long back thus no other tense can fit here. Option 1 is the correct answer.

The correct word here is 'since' which means 'in the intervening period between (the time mentioned) and the time under consideration, typically the present.' It means that from that point of time a number of banks have followed the same. Option 1 is thus the correct answer. The other options do not fit here.

The correct word here is 'suit' as the correct phrase is 'follow suit' which means 'to imitate someone.' Option 4 is thus the correct answer. The other words cannot be placed here.

The pattern followed here is:

Thus, the missing number is UVWXY.

Except ‘Influenza’, all other diseases are caused by lack of vitamins.

The pattern followed here is:
→ 7² = 49 + 3 = 52
So, 9² = 81 + 3 = 84
Thus, 84 is the related number.

The word ‘QUALITY’ cannot be formed using the letters of the given word as there is no ‘Y’ in the given word.

So, Thus, SPBS is the correct code for “URDU.”
