Question 1

Sentence arrangement (reordering words): form a grammatically correct sentence stating an immediate desire for salary  Numbers correspond to words; reorder them into a correct sentence: 1 = "I" 2 = "immediately" 3 = "salary" 4 = "my" 5 = "want"  Cho…

Accepted Answer

Given data Tokens to order: I / immediately / salary / my / want. Concept/Approach Standard English word order: Subject → Verb → Object → Adverbial. Possessive determiner (my) precedes the noun (salary); the adverb (immediately) can be placed finally for emphasis. Step-by-step arrangement Subject: 1 (“I”)Verb: 5 (“want”)Object with determiner: 4 + 3 (“my salary”)Adverb (time/manner) at end: 2 (“immediately”)Sequence = 1-5-4-3-2 → 15432 Common pitfalls Placing the adverb before the object here (“I want immediately my salary”), which is less natural.

Question 2

Sentence arrangement (reordering words): build a correct imperative-like statement about completing a task today  Numbers correspond to words; reorder them into a grammatical sentence: 1 = "do" 2 = "today" 3 = "you" 4 = "must" 5 = "it"  Choose the c…

Accepted Answer

Given data Tokens: do / today / you / must / it. Concept/Approach For deontic necessity, use “You must …” followed by the bare infinitive. Typical order: Subject (you) → Modal (must) → Verb (do) → Object (it) → Time adverbial (today). Step-by-step arrangement 3 (“you”) → 4 (“must”) → 1 (“do”) → 5 (“it”) → 2 (“today”)Sequence = 34152 Common pitfalls Starting with the main verb (“do you must…”) which breaks English modal syntax.

Question 3

Sentence arrangement (reordering words): form a past-tense sentence about sudden departure  Numbers correspond to words; reorder them into a correct sentence: 1 = "left" 2 = "the" 3 = "house" 4 = "he" 5 = "suddenly"  Choose the correct sequence of n…

Accepted Answer

Given data Tokens: left / the / house / he / suddenly. Concept/Approach Canonical order: Subject → Verb → Object → Adverbial. The subject pronoun “he” should lead the sentence; the noun phrase is “the house.” An adverb of manner (“suddenly”) is naturally placed at the end. Step-by-step arrangement 4 (“he”) → 1 (“left”) → 2 + 3 (“the house”) → 5 (“suddenly”)Sequence = 41235 Common pitfalls Beginning with “left” (verb) and delaying the subject, which is ungrammatical in a neutral declarative sentence.

Question 4

Sentence arrangement (reordering words): create a passive construction about receiving medicine  Numbers correspond to words; reorder them into a correct sentence: 1 = "medicine" 2 = "a" 3 = "Neeta" 4 = "given" 5 = "was"  Choose the correct sequence…

Accepted Answer

Given data Tokens: medicine / a / Neeta / given / was. Concept/Approach We need a passive voice structure: Subject → Auxiliary “was” → Past participle “given” → Indirect object or direct object. The natural sentence is “Neeta was given a medicine.” Step-by-step arrangement 3 (“Neeta”) → 5 (“was”) → 4 (“given”) → 2 (“a”) → 1 (“medicine”)Sequence = 35421 Common pitfalls Placing “a” before “Neeta” (creating an article before a proper noun) or misordering the auxiliary and participle.

Question 5

Sentence reordering (jumbled words): Arrange the numbered fragments to form a grammatically correct sentence using all words exactly once.  1 = 'of' 2 = 'we' 3 = 'heard' 4 = 'him' 5 = 'had'  Choose the correctly ordered sentence.

Question 15

Sentence arrangement (word-order puzzle): reorder the numbered words to form a correct and natural English sentence  Tokens to arrange: 1 = "not" 2 = "Hari" 3 = "away" 4 = "run" 5 = "did"  Choose the correct sequence of numbers that forms a grammati…

Accepted Answer

Given data Tokens: 1 = not, 2 = Hari, 3 = away, 4 = run, 5 = did. Task: Arrange the tokens to get a correct sentence. Concept/Approach In a simple past negative, English uses the auxiliary “did not” + base verb. Normal word order in a declarative sentence is Subject → Auxiliary → Negation → Main verb → Adverb/Complement. Step-by-step construction Subject = 2 (“Hari”)Auxiliary = 5 (“did”)Negation = 1 (“not”)Main verb (base form) = 4 (“run”)Particle/Adverb = 3 (“away”)Assembled sentence: “Hari did not run away.” → sequence 2-5-1-4-3 = 25143. Option analysis 25143 — correct: “Hari did not run away.” ✅21543 — “Hari not did run away” (wrong auxiliary placement).25413 — “Hari did run not away” (misplaced negation).24513 — “Hari did away run not” (jumbled).12453 — starts with “not,” ungrammatical for a neutral declarative. Common pitfalls Using “did” with a past-tense main verb (e.g., “did ran”)—remember the base form follows “did not”. Final Answer 25143 (Hari did not run away.)
