Question : 16

Can you arrange the car to be ready this evening?

a) arrange that the car

b) arrange for the car

c) arrange with the car

d) No improvement

Answer: (a)

The apparent meaning of ‘arrange the car’ is to arrange so many cars in a particular order. But here the main intention of the writer is to ‘get a car’.

Therefore the bold part should be replaced with option (a), ie ‘arrange for the car’.

Question : 17

a) off

b) upon

c) for

d) No improvement

Answer: (d)

No improvement

Question : 18

He must has change clothes during the night.

a) have changed

b) has changed

c) have changes

d) No improvement

Answer: (a)

The modal verb “must”, should be followed by the first form of the verb followed by its past participle form. Therefore “has change” is replaced by “have changed”

Question : 19

After he arrived from office, he goes to gym.

a) After he had being arriving

b) After he had arrived

c) After he arrives

d) No improvement

Answer: (c)

The sentence is in present tense. Therefore arrived is replaced with arrives

Question : 20

May be they has had a fight.

a) were had

b) was having

c) were having

d) No improvement

Answer: (c)

When the subject is in plural form (“they” in this case), the verb must also be in plural form. Therefore, “has had” is replaced by “were having”
