Fill in the Blanks

Too much is used for an unacceptable, excessive amount. 'More' is basically used in making comparisons of usage, for example ‘people eat more fats than proteins’.

In the first statement, there is a use of possessive pronoun ‘his’. 'Him' is used to refer to a man, boy, or male animal who has been previously mentioned or whose identity is known.

We always use first form of the verb after ‘should’ without ‘s/es’ or ‘ing’.

We need to use an adverb which describes how the story is written. Option 1 is incorrect because it is an adjective and option 3 is incorrect because it is a quality (noun).

'Still' in the context indicates the continuing habit of Geeta. So, “she still plays it daily” is the correct sentence.

First sentence is in present tense and tells us where Ram is and the second sentence tells us about the activity 'that he is performing'.

Option 2 is the best option as it properly addresses Sona's question in a polite manner.

Mani is asking about the past weekend. So, the appropriate option that addresses Mani’s question is 2.

Option 2 is the best option as it appropriately answers the question asked by the son.

1 can't be the best option as the son is suffering from fever, mother will not force him to do work. 3 can't be the best option as by taking rest only there is no surety that the son will recover. So, option 2 is the best and most appropriate here.

'Fit for drinking' in this context implies 'the quality required for the purpose of drinking'.

The second part of the sentence is in support to the first part. 'Any' implies that the blank must be characterized by a minute or bit of matter. Of all the options, 'spark' fits our prediction and hence, it is the answer.

The clue here is and. This tells us that the blanks are going to build on what is stated in the sentence. So, if the workers felt that newly invented farm machinery threatened their jobs, it's likely that they didn't bless the machines. 'They BLANK their fear of BLANK' helps us to predict that the workers 'expressed' or showed their fear of something along the lines of industry by smashing machines. When we look at the answer choices, we see that choice (3) is the one for us. That's because registered, in this context means 'expressed,' and technology refers to the machines mentioned in the sentence. None of the other choices make sense, although choice (1) is a little tempting. That's because we can imagine frustrated workers smashing machines in anger at the injustice they're experiencing. But there's no actual reference to injustice in the sentence.

A clutch is the correct collective noun for eggs. In animal terminology, a clutch refers to a group of eggs laid in a single nest or at one time, particularly by birds or reptiles. Other options refer to different types of groupings.

Ancient means something belonging to the very distant past. So, option 2 is the correct answer.
