ANSWER AND EXPLANATION (Test Sheet-1)

by- Satyendra Tiwari Sir

1. d. Although means “despite the fact that” or “even though.” Even though Sara drives to the cabin
all the time, she still gets nervous. The other choices do not convey this meaning.

2. a. Therefore best completes the sentence’s meaning; it creates a cause and effect relationship
between how Lata is feeling (the cause) and her decision to stay home from work (the effect).

3. b. While suggests that two things are happening simultaneously; it is the only logical choice. Choice
a implies that Sameer could control when the doctor called him in. Choices c and d are unclear.

4. c. The sentence requires a condition—Rubika likes blueberry pie on one condition: freshly picked
blueberries. Choice b can be ruled out because blueberry pie is not always made with freshly
picked blueberries. Choices a and d result in unclear sentences.

5. a. However indicates an impending contradiction; it is the best choice because the two clauses
compare musical tastes. In this case, the comparison contrasts Mitali’s preference to Garima’s.

6. d. If you rearrange the sentence, it would read: If you sign up this week, you will receive a low
annual fee and a 15% discount. In addition means and; it is the best choice. Choices a, b, and c
result in an awkward construction.

7. b. The two clauses make a reference to time—more specifically, to two different times. Choice b is
the only logical response.

8. d. The golden retriever is never outside without a leash because the neighbor is afraid of dogs; one
is the effect of the other. Consequently means following as an effect or as a result. This is the
best choice.

9. a. This sentence speculates that quilts were made from fabrics taken from somewhere. Only from
completes this idea.

10. d. This is the only choice that results in a complete and logical sentence. Choice a is illogical;
choices b and c result in sentence fragments.
