TPCS TCS Prelims Mock Test - 9 - Question 9

Directions: In the question given below, a part of the sentence is given in underline. It is then followed by three options. Find the alternative that can replace the givenunderlined part to make the sentence grammatically and contextually correct. 

While some appreciate the more structured approach of the questionnaire, most wanted more space and less detail.

I. appreciation the more structured
II. appreciating the more structured
III. appreciated the more structured

Detailed Solution for TPCS TCS Prelims Mock Test - 9 - Question 9

The highlighted part of the sentence has grammatical error based on parallelism. The second part of the sentence is in simple past tense (wanted). So, the first part should not be in simple present tense. Hence, the first part of the sentence should also be in past tense. This makes ‘appreciated the more structured’ the correct choice for the underlined part of the sentence.
Correct sentence:
While some appreciated the more structured approach of the questionnaire, most wanted more space and less detail.
Hence, the correct answer is option C. 

TPCS TCS Prelims Mock Test - 9 - Question 10

TPCS TCS Prelims Mock Test - 9 - Question 11

Directions: In the following question, a sentence is given with some part of it marked in underline. You have to identify the option that would replace the underline part and make the sentence contextually and grammatically correct.

Q. The owner of the flat above has had several sales fall apart due to the cost of rectifying frost damaged brickwork.

Detailed Solution for TPCS TCS Prelims Mock Test - 9 - Question 11

The sentence is erroneous because the phrasal verb ‘fall apart’ which means ‘to break up, come apart, or disintegrate’ does not make any sense here. The sentence implies that several sales failed or did not happen because of the cost of rectifying frost damaged brickwork. So, in this case ‘fall through’ is the most suitable choice for the underline part of the sentence.
Fall through: come to nothing; fail; doesn’t happen.

Correct sentence:
The owner of the flat above has had several sales fall through due to the cost of rectifying frost damaged brickwork.
Hence, the correct answer is option A.

TPCS TCS Prelims Mock Test - 9 - Question 12

Directions: In the following question, a sentence is given followed by a blank. You are provided with three fragments I, II and III. You have to identify which fragment/s can carry forward the given sentence in the most logical way so as to make the sentence coherent and contextually correct.

Q. Teamwork is essential in achieving organizational goals because _____________.
I. it enhances collaboration and improves communication.
II. it allows individuals to work independently and creatively.
III. it enahances the workload of each team member.

Detailed Solution for TPCS TCS Prelims Mock Test - 9 - Question 12

I. Teamwork is essential in achieving organizational goals because it enhances collaboration and improves communication.
The above sentence is logically coherent and contextually correct because teamwork involves working together with other team members to achieve a common goal. Effective collaboration and communication are necessary to ensure that team members are working towards the same objective and to share ideas and feedback. Hence, fragment I is correct.

II. Teamwork is essential in achieving organizational goals because it allows individuals to work independently and creatively.
The above sentence is not logically coherent and contextually incorrect because teamwork involves working together and collaborating to achieve a common goal. While individuals may work independently to complete specific tasks, the overall success of the team is dependent on effective collaboration. Hence, fragment II is incorrect.

III. Teamwork is essential in achieving organizational goals because it enhances the workload of each team member.
The above sentence is not logically coherent and contextually incorrect because teamwork involves working together to achieve a common goal. While team members may share tasks and responsibilities, the overall workload of the team should be manageable for all members to ensure that the team can achieve its objectives. Hence, fragment III is incorrect.
Therefore, the correct answer is option A.

TPCS TCS Prelims Mock Test - 9 - Question 14

Identify the sentence that uses a possessive pronoun:

Detailed Solution for TPCS TCS Prelims Mock Test - 9 - Question 14

The correct answer is: (C) This is hers, not yours.

Key Points

  • The sentence (C), "This is hers, not yours," includes two possessive pronouns, 'hers' and 'yours'.
  • They are used to replace nouns that have already been mentioned or implied.
  • 'Hers' infers ownership or relation to 'this', an object that was previously mentioned or understood in the context.
  • The possessive pronoun 'yours' also indicates ownership, contrasting the owner of 'this' with another party.
  • Possessive pronouns are standalone, they don't require a noun to follow them as possessive adjectives do.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option C.

Additional Information

  • Sentence (1) uses the possessive adjective 'your' modifying 'plan', it is not a possessive pronoun.
  • Sentence (2) contains 'their', another possessive adjective, which modifies 'responsibility' but doesn't serve as a possessive pronoun.
  • Sentence (3) does not contain either a possessive pronoun or adjective.
