Directions:
Which of the phrases (a), (b), (c), (d) given below each sentence should replace the phrase printed in bold to make the sentence grammatically correct? If the sentence is correct as it is, mark (e) ie ‘No correction required’ as the answer.
The following question based on sentences improvement topic of general english mcq
(a) in case
(b) otherwise
(c) failing which
(d) No improvement
The correct answers to the above question in:
Answer: (a)
We use ‘otherwise’ after stating a situation or fact, in order to say what the result or consequence would be, if this situation or fact was not the case.
We use ‘or else’ to introduce a statement that indicate the unpleasant results that will occur if someone does or does not do something.
Here ‘otherwise’ is the synonym of ‘or else’.
Hence we can improve the sentence by using ‘otherwise’ in place of ‘or else’.

Question : 1
The bridge in connection with the two cities will remain closed for security reasons.
a) Being connected from
b) Connects between
c) In connection to
d) Connecting
e) No correction required
Answer »Answer: (d)
The primary function of a bridge is ‘to connect’ two places, or in other words the bridge does the function of ‘connecting’ two places.
Option (d) has the word ‘connecting’ in it, so this option has the probability of being a correct option. Now in order to arrive at the conclusion let us consider other options also. In the given option (a) the preposition ‘between’ is incorrect. Option (b) has ‘in connection to’ which means ‘in reference to’ which is not relevant here.
Similarly, option (c) is clearly absurd. Thus, options (a), (b) and (c) are ruled out. Now, it is clear that option (d) is the only correct option.

Neha was surprised by her result.
a) surprised to

Mr Gates is a successful entrepreneur donated most of his wealth to charity.
a) who has donated most of
b) has donated most of
c) donated mostly
d) donates much of
e) No correction required
Answer »Answer: (a)
The given sentence may be supposed to be made of two simple sentences:

From (ii) we can infer that only (c) is the correct option. Other options do not have the conjunction ‘who’ hence ruled out.
