B Correct answer
Explanation

Option 501658 is a clear, concise sentence with proper introductory phrase structure. Option 501657 is clunky due to the placement of the participial phrase, and 501659 is grammatically incorrect because 'after technically reviewed' lacks the necessary auxiliary verb or proper gerund form.

  1. I am played

  2. I am playing

  3. I will played

  4. I has playing

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

'I am playing' uses the present continuous tense correctly with the verb 'to be' (am) followed by the present participle (playing). This form describes an action happening right now. Option A is incorrect because 'played' is past tense and doesn't work with 'am'. Option C incorrectly uses 'will' with past tense 'played'. Option D incorrectly uses 'has' with 'playing' instead of 'am'.

  1. He gone there

  2. He will gone there

  3. He may gone there

  4. He had gone there

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

'He had gone there' uses the past perfect tense correctly with 'had' + past participle 'gone'. This indicates an action completed before another past action. Options A, B, and C are grammatically incorrect - they don't use proper auxiliary verbs with 'gone'. The past perfect requires 'had' + past participle.

  3. It is raining

  4. It will raining

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself

  1. Mohan have comes

  2. Mohan is come

  3. Mohan was come

  4. Mohan has come

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

The present perfect tense "has come" is used when an action happened at an unspecified time before now. "Mohan have comes" incorrectly uses "have" with a singular subject and wrong verb form, "is come" mixes present simple with past participle, and "was come" incorrectly pairs past simple with past participle.

  2. You will be going there

  3. You had going there

  4. You may going there

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Future continuous 'You will be going there' correctly predicts an ongoing future action using 'will be' + present participle. 'You will going' misses the required 'be', 'You had going' misuses past tense, and 'You may going' incorrectly pairs modal with present participle without 'be'.

  2. He will come here tomorrow

  3. He is come here tomorrow

  4. He will coming here tomorrow

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself

Explanation

Future continuous 'We will be playing tomorrow' correctly predicts ongoing action at a future time.

  2. If I has come

  3. If I am come

  4. If I had coming

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer

  2. The result will have been out by then

  3. The result has out by then

  4. The result may out by then

A,B Correct answer
