The notorious dacoit, with all his gangsters, have been robbing banks for the last few months.
Answer: (a)
The verb has to refer to the singular subject, 'the notorious dacoit'. So it should be 'has been robbing' (not 'have been robbing').
We should take up the first item; let us begin this song.
Answer: (a)
'Begin' means 'to come into being'. 'With' is the preposition that follows 'begin'—'The morning begins with the sound of chirping birds.' So 'begin with' is appropriate here. 'Begin with' should not be confused with 'to begin with' (d) which means 'firstly' or 'at first'.
I told him clearly that he hadn't ought to do that to me.
Answer: (c)
The phrase 'hadn't ought to' is not standard English.
When it was feared that the serfs might go too far and gain their freedom from serfdom, the Protestant leaders joined the princes at crushing them.
Answer: (a)
Use the correct preposition.
Having finished the book, it was put away by him.
Answer: (c)
The modifier should modify the correct subject. 'Having put away the book' obviously refers to the person who put it away.
