sentences improvement section 5 Detailed Explanation And More Example

Answer: (c)

Answer: (a)

The given sentence is in past tense. Hence ‘I will accept’ should be replaced with ‘I would accept’. Option (a) cannot be a correct because instead of ‘would’ it has ‘will’. Now, when an interrogative sentence is changed into an assertive sentence, we do not use “..........asked that”- rather we simply use 'asked'. Option (b) can be rejected.

The use of ‘would I’ in option (d) is wrong because such structure is used in interrogative sentence not in assertive sentence.

Therefore, option (d) can easily be rejected. We are now left with option (c), which is absolutely correct.

Answer: (c)

For a bigger place we use ‘in’. Hence (c) is correct.

Answer: (e)

No correction required

Answer: (a)

The ‘forbid’ agrees with ‘from’. Therefore replace the bold part with ‘from’.

Answer: (b)

In the given sentence two contrasting ideas have been mentioned. ‘Hard time’ and ‘general progress’ are certainly contrasting things. To express contrasting ideas we use the conjunction ‘Though.......yet’

For example,

Though she is black yet she is beautiful.

Though he is rich yet he is dissatisfied.

Thus, it is clear that among the given options, only (a) is correct.
