No sooner she left the room than her baby started to cry. 

Detailed Solution: Question 7

The correct version of the sentence is:

  • No sooner had she left the room than her baby started to cry.

Detailed Solution: Question 8

"I am visiting for no other reason but to see that you are well."

Explanation:

  • The phrase "for no other reason but" is a common idiom meaning "only for this specific reason."
  • "But" in this context functions as an exception or contrast to "no other reason."
  • The other options do not fit grammatically:
    • "as" does not fit idiomatically.
    • "beacuse" is incorrect because "no other reason than" is not the correct construction here.
    • "whether" does not make sense in this sentence

The sentence uses the word "lest", which implies a negative outcome if the action is taken. The correct word to follow "lest" is "should", which indicates a possible consequence.

  • Lest is used to express fear or prevention of something undesirable.
  • The word "should" fits grammatically and contextually, suggesting a hypothetical situation.

Detailed Solution: Question 10

'Lest' is defined as something done to avoid an undesirable consequence. Lest is always followed by subjunctive mood, usually present or future tense. Thus, according to the usage rules, option D is the correct answer.
