English Grammar and Usage

'Just' is the correct adverb to use with present perfect for actions completed very recently. 'I have just made' indicates the action happened moments ago. 'Ever' is for questions/experiences, 'yet' is for things not done by now, and 'did' would require the simple past form 'made' without 'have'.

The past continuous 'was sleeping' correctly describes an action in progress when another past event occurred. 'When I looked' sets a specific past moment, and at that moment, the sleeping was ongoing. 'Is sleeping' is present tense, 'has slept' is present perfect showing completion, and 'sleeping' lacks a verb.

'Went' is the simple past tense of 'go', correct for completed actions at specific past times. 'Last year' is a definite past time marker requiring simple past. 'Goes' is present habitual, 'go' is present simple or base form, and 'have gone' is present perfect (indefinite past or present relevance).

'Has been' (present perfect) is correct because it shows a state continuing from the past to the present. Jobin became ill three weeks ago and is still ill now. The phrase 'He is still in hospital' confirms the continuing nature of the state. 'Had been' would be past perfect (before another past time), 'is/are' are simple present.

The sentence uses past perfect tense (had + past participle) to show an action completed before another past action. 'Had repaired' indicates the car repair was finished before Hari took it for a drive. 'Has repair' is grammatically incorrect, 'was repairing' shows ongoing action (not completed), and 'none' is unnecessary when a correct option exists.

The present perfect continuous tense (have/has + been + verb-ing) shows an action starting in the past and continuing to the present. 'Have been swimming' is correct because the swimming caused current aching. 'Have been swim' is grammatically wrong, 'swam' is simple past (doesn't show duration), and 'swimmed' is not a valid word.

The present perfect tense (have/has + past participle) connects past action to the present. 'I have driven' shows the action completed today with relevance to current tiredness. 'I am driving' is present continuous (happening now, not completed), 'I drive' is habitual present, and 'none' ignores the correct option.

The conjunction 'before' correctly establishes the temporal relationship - saying prayers occurs prior to sleeping. 'While' suggests simultaneous action, 'after' suggests the opposite sequence, and 'when' is less specific about the timing.

'Nevertheless' is a conjunctive adverb that shows contrast - despite being hungry, he still listened. It's the only option that logically connects two contrasting ideas. 'Though' and 'despite' need different sentence structures, and 'because' shows cause, not contrast.

The phrase 'as if' triggers the subjunctive mood, so 'were' is correct even though 'he' is singular. This is a fixed grammatical rule for hypothetical or contrary-to-fact situations. 'Is' is indicative, 'was' is sometimes accepted informally, and 'have been' doesn't agree with the subject.
