Question :26

Being worked for the whole day, you should have taken some rest and started the work tomorrow.

Answer: (a)

Question :27

Ravi has got many friends because he has got much money.

Answer: (a)

Question :28

She did not like the movie, nor I did.

Answer: (c)

Negative additions can be made to negative remarks (in this case, 'She did not like the movie') by using neither or nor + auxiliary + subject (in this case, 'nor did I'). A subject-verb inversion takes place in such negative additions.

Question :29

He is the kindest and generous of all my friends.

Answer: (b)

Observe parallel construction. The word 'kindest' implies that 'generous' must also be used to convey a superlative meaning.

Question :30

The fact-finding committee has so far not made any advancement.

Answer: (c)

Though 'advancement' in the sense of 'advance' is not exactly wrong, it is rarely used in this sense now. 'Progress' is simple and clear in the context of the sentence.
