Q761.
In the sentence, 'She gave a succinct summary of the meeting', what is a synonym of the word 'succinct' ?
  1. ADetailed
  2. BBrief
  3. CComplicated
  4. DLengthy
Show answer

Concept: Succinct = expressed clearly in few words.

  1. A 'succinct summary' is a short, to-the-point summary.
  2. Brief = short ⇒ synonym.
  3. Detailed, Lengthy = opposite idea; Complicated = about difficulty, not length.

Trick: Two options (Detailed, Lengthy) mean the same 'long' idea – a pair of near-twins is usually the opposite side; pick the one that stands against them.

Answer: (B) Brief

अवधारणा: Succinct = कम शब्दों में स्पष्ट बात (संक्षिप्त)।

  1. 'Succinct summary' = छोटा, सटीक सार।
  2. Brief = संक्षिप्त ⇒ समानार्थी।
  3. Detailed, Lengthy = विस्तृत/लंबा (उल्टा अर्थ); Complicated = जटिल।

ट्रिक: Detailed और Lengthy एक जैसे अर्थ वाले हैं — ये विपरीत पक्ष हैं; इनके उलट वाला शब्द चुनें।

उत्तर: (B) Brief

Q762.
Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank. Determine the collocation through the sentence. When the commander gives an order,
____ obedience is expected of the soldiers.
  1. Asuddenly
  2. Binstant
  3. Cfastly
  4. Dhurry
Show answer

Concept: A noun is modified by an adjective, not an adverb.

  1. The blank comes before the noun 'obedience' ⇒ an adjective is needed.
  2. 'Instant' (adjective) = immediate; 'instant obedience' is a fixed pairing.
  3. 'Suddenly' is an adverb, 'fastly' is not a word, 'hurry' is a noun/verb.

Trick: 'Fast' is both adjective and adverb – 'fastly' never exists; strike it out at sight.

Answer: (B) instant

अवधारणा: संज्ञा से पहले विशेषण (adjective) आता है, क्रियाविशेषण नहीं।

  1. रिक्त स्थान संज्ञा 'obedience' से पहले ⇒ विशेषण चाहिए।
  2. 'Instant' = तुरंत; 'instant obedience' = तुरंत आज्ञापालन (प्रचलित जोड़ी)।
  3. 'Suddenly' क्रियाविशेषण, 'fastly' कोई शब्द नहीं, 'hurry' संज्ञा/क्रिया।

ट्रिक: 'Fast' स्वयं विशेषण और क्रियाविशेषण दोनों है — 'fastly' गलत शब्द है।

उत्तर: (B) instant

Mr. Saxena sold his car because it was a useless one.
  1. Ain doldrums
  2. Ba gift of gab
  3. Ca white elephant
  4. Dbite the bullet
Show answer

Concept: White elephant = a possession that is costly to keep but of little use.

  1. The car was useless, so he sold it ⇒ 'a white elephant'.
  2. In the doldrums = in low spirits; gift of the gab = talent for talking; bite the bullet = face something painful bravely.

Yaad rakhein: The idiom comes from the story of Siamese kings gifting white elephants – sacred animals that were very costly to feed and could not be put to work.

Answer: (C) a white elephant

अवधारणा: White elephant = ऐसी वस्तु जिसे रखना महँगा पर जो किसी काम की न हो (सफ़ेद हाथी)।

  1. कार बेकार थी, इसलिए बेच दी ⇒ 'a white elephant'.
  2. In the doldrums = उदास; gift of the gab = बोलने की कला; bite the bullet = कठिनाई का साहस से सामना।

याद रखें: हिंदी में भी 'सफ़ेद हाथी' = खर्चीली पर बेकार वस्तु।

उत्तर: (C) a white elephant

Select the most appropriate synonym of the given word.
Frantic
  1. ADistraught
  2. BMagnanimous
  3. CQuaint
  4. DKinetic
Show answer

Concept: Frantic = wildly anxious, out of control with worry or fear.

  1. Distraught = very upset and agitated ⇒ synonym.
  2. Magnanimous = generous; Quaint = charmingly old-fashioned; Kinetic = related to motion.

Trick: 'Kinetic' may tempt because frantic people move fast – but the word describes a state of mind, so choose the emotion word.

Answer: (A) Distraught

अवधारणा: Frantic = घबराहट या चिंता से बेकाबू, व्याकुल।

  1. Distraught = अत्यंत परेशान, बेचैन ⇒ समानार्थी।
  2. Magnanimous = उदार; Quaint = पुराने ढंग का आकर्षक; Kinetic = गति संबंधी।

ट्रिक: 'Kinetic' भ्रम पैदा करता है, पर frantic मन की दशा बताता है — भावना वाला शब्द चुनें।

उत्तर: (A) Distraught

Q765.
Select the most appropriate meaning of the given word.
Bright
  1. AImmense
  2. BRadiant
  3. CHooked
  4. DUnlit
Show answer

Concept: Bright = full of light, shining.

  1. Radiant = glowing, shining ⇒ same meaning.
  2. Unlit = without light (opposite); Immense = huge; Hooked = addicted/curved.

Trick: 'Radiant' comes from 'radiate' (to give out light) – a quick link to 'bright'.

Answer: (B) Radiant

अवधारणा: Bright = चमकीला, रोशनी से भरा।

  1. Radiant = दीप्तिमान, चमकता हुआ ⇒ समान अर्थ।
  2. Unlit = अँधेरा (विलोम); Immense = विशाल; Hooked = आदी/मुड़ा हुआ।

ट्रिक: 'Radiant' शब्द 'radiate' (प्रकाश फैलाना) से बना है — सीधे 'bright' से जुड़ता है।

उत्तर: (B) Radiant

The following sentence has been divided into parts. One of them may contain an error. Select the part that contains the error from the given options. If you don't find any error, mark 'No error' as your answer.
She danced happy / on the stage / in the competition held last evening.
  1. Aon the stage
  2. BShe danced happy
  3. Cin the competition held last evening
  4. DNo error
Show answer

Concept: An action verb is described by an adverb of manner.

  1. 'Danced' is an action verb; the manner word must be an adverb.
  2. 'Happy' (adjective) ⇒ 'happily'. Correct: She danced happily.
  3. The other parts are correct.

Trick: Ask 'danced how?' – the answer word must normally end in -ly (happily, gracefully). Linking verbs (is, seems, feels) take adjectives instead.

Answer: (B) She danced happy

अवधारणा: क्रिया का ढंग बताने के लिए क्रियाविशेषण (adverb) आता है।

  1. 'Danced' क्रिया है; उसका ढंग बताने वाला शब्द adverb होगा।
  2. 'Happy' (विशेषण) ⇒ 'happily'। सही: She danced happily.
  3. बाकी भाग सही हैं।

ट्रिक: पूछें 'कैसे नाची?' — उत्तर प्रायः -ly वाला शब्द। is, seems, feels जैसी linking verbs के बाद विशेषण आता है।

उत्तर: (B) She danced happy

  3. C(1) efficient ; (2) judges ; (3) innovative
  4. D(1) innovative ; (2) efficient ; (3) judges

  1. 'Panel of ___' needs people ⇒ (3) judges.
  2. A project with modern technology ⇒ (1) innovative.
  3. Processes that work well ⇒ (2) efficient.

Trick: Once (3) = judges, scan the options: only (D) has 'judges' in blank 3 – done in one step.

Answer: (D) (1) innovative ; (2) efficient ; (3) judges

अवधारणा: सबसे निश्चित रिक्त स्थान पहले भरें, फिर अर्थ से बाकी।

Which route is ____ best for avoiding traffic?
  1. Athe
  2. BNo article required
  3. Ca
  4. Dan
Show answer

Concept: A superlative adjective takes the definite article 'the'.

  1. 'Best' is the superlative of 'good'.
  2. Correct: Which route is the best for avoiding traffic?
  3. 'A/an' cannot be used with a superlative.

Trick: See -est or best/worst/most ⇒ put 'the' before it (the tallest, the most useful).

Answer: (A) the

अवधारणा: Superlative विशेषण से पहले 'the' लगता है।

  1. 'Best', 'good' की superlative डिग्री है।
  2. सही: Which route is the best for avoiding traffic?

Man has made many changes on earth with primitive tools and limited knowlege.
  1. Aknowledge
  2. Bknowledege
  3. Cknowlage
  4. Dknowladge
Show answer

Concept: Correct spelling: k-n-o-w-l-e-d-g-e.

  1. 'Knowlege' misses the 'd'.
  2. The word = know + ledge ⇒ knowledge.
  3. Other options add or change vowels wrongly.

Trick: Split it: KNOW + LEDGE (like a window ledge) – both parts are real words.

Answer: (A) knowledge

अवधारणा: सही वर्तनी: k-n-o-w-l-e-d-g-e.

  1. 'Knowlege' में 'd' छूट गया है।
  2. शब्द = know + ledge ⇒ knowledge.
  3. अन्य विकल्पों में स्वर गलत हैं।

ट्रिक: तोड़कर याद करें: KNOW + LEDGE — दोनों भाग स्वयं अंग्रेज़ी शब्द हैं।

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank.
The data from the latest studies ____ a sharp rise in global temperatures.
  1. Ashow
  2. Bare being show
  3. Chave been showing
  4. Dshows
Show answer

Concept: The verb agrees with the true subject, not with the noun in a prepositional phrase.

  1. Subject = 'The data'; 'from the latest studies' is only a phrase.
  2. In modern usage 'data' (as a body of information) takes a singular verb.
  3. ⇒ 'The data … shows a sharp rise'. 'Are being show' is ungrammatical.

Trick: Cover the 'of/from…' phrase and read: 'The data ___ a rise' – one body of information ⇒ shows.

Answer: (D) shows

अवधारणा: क्रिया असली कर्ता से मेल खाती है, बीच के पदबंध से नहीं।

  1. कर्ता = 'The data'; 'from the latest studies' केवल पदबंध है।
  2. आधुनिक प्रयोग में 'data' (सूचना का समूह) के साथ एकवचन क्रिया।
  3. ⇒ 'The data … shows a sharp rise'। 'Are being show' व्याकरण की दृष्टि से गलत।

ट्रिक: 'from…' वाला हिस्सा ढककर पढ़ें: 'The data ___ a rise' ⇒ shows.

His father enjoyed the strongest position as an MLA in his constituency.
  1. ATo be at hem of
  2. BTo go to the dogs
  3. CTo get upper hand
  4. DTo be at one's wit
Show answer

Concept: Upper hand = a position of control or advantage.

  1. 'Strongest position' in the constituency = dominance ⇒ 'to get (the) upper hand'.
  2. Go to the dogs = be ruined; at one's wit's end = helpless and confused.
  3. 'At hem of' is not a meaningful idiom here.

Trick: 'Upper' = above others – the only option that shows superiority.

Answer: (C) To get upper hand

अवधारणा: Upper hand = दूसरों पर नियंत्रण या बढ़त की स्थिति।

  1. क्षेत्र में 'सबसे मज़बूत स्थिति' = वर्चस्व ⇒ 'to get upper hand'।
  2. Go to the dogs = बर्बाद होना; at one's wit's end = असहाय, किंकर्तव्यविमूढ़।
  3. 'At hem of' यहाँ अर्थपूर्ण मुहावरा नहीं।

ट्रिक: 'Upper' = ऊपर, दूसरों से ऊँचा — श्रेष्ठता दिखाने वाला एकमात्र विकल्प।

Select the INCORRECTLY spelt word.
  1. ADeciet
  2. BAnomaly
  3. CConsistent
  4. DFright
Show answer

Concept: Spelling rule: 'i before e, except after c'.

  1. Correct spelling: D-e-c-e-i-t (after 'c' comes 'ei').
  2. 'Deciet' reverses e and i ⇒ incorrect.
  3. Anomaly, Consistent, Fright are correct.

Trick: Same pattern as receive, ceiling, conceit – after c, write 'ei'.

Answer: (A) Deciet

अवधारणा: वर्तनी नियम: 'c' के बाद 'ei' आता है।

  1. सही वर्तनी: D-e-c-e-i-t (धोखा)।
  2. 'Deciet' में e और i उल्टे हैं ⇒ गलत।
  3. Anomaly, Consistent, Fright सही हैं।

ट्रिक: receive, ceiling, conceit जैसा ही पैटर्न — c के बाद 'ei'।

Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the underlined word in the given sentence.
Rutvika's boldness in tackling new challenges was really admirable.
  1. ATimidity
  2. BConfidence
  3. CCorrectness
  4. DRecklessness
Show answer

Concept: Boldness = courage to face risks without fear.

  1. Opposite = lack of courage ⇒ Timidity (shyness, fearfulness).
  2. Confidence = near synonym; Correctness = unrelated.
  3. Recklessness = too much boldness, not its opposite.

Trick: An 'excess' of a quality (bold → reckless) is never its antonym; look for the 'absence' of it.

Answer: (A) Timidity

अवधारणा: Boldness = निडर होकर जोखिम उठाने का साहस।

  1. विलोम = साहस की कमी ⇒ Timidity (डरपोकपन)।
  2. Confidence = लगभग समानार्थी; Correctness = असंबंधित।
  3. Recklessness = अत्यधिक साहस (लापरवाही), विलोम नहीं।

ट्रिक: किसी गुण की 'अधिकता' उसका विलोम नहीं होती; उसकी 'अनुपस्थिति' खोजें।

  1. ALarry had almost forgotten about the meeting.
  2. BLarry had certainly forgotten about the meeting.
  3. CLarry had completely forgotten about the meeting.
  4. DLarry complete had forgotten about the meeting.
Show answer

Concept: With 'had + past participle', an adverb sits between the auxiliary and main verb.

  1. (A), (B), (C): had almost / certainly / completely forgotten – correct.
  2. (D) uses the adjective 'complete' and places it before 'had' – both wrong.
  3. Correct: Larry had completely forgotten about the meeting.

Trick: Three options share one pattern – the one breaking it (no -ly, wrong place) is the answer.

Answer: (D) Larry complete had forgotten about the meeting.

अवधारणा: 'had + past participle' में क्रियाविशेषण सहायक क्रिया और मुख्य क्रिया के बीच आता है।

  1. (A), (B), (C): had almost / certainly / completely forgotten — सही।
  2. (D) में विशेषण 'complete' है और वह 'had' से पहले रखा है — दोनों गलत।
  3. सही: Larry had completely forgotten about the meeting.

ट्रिक: तीन विकल्प एक ही पैटर्न में हैं — जो उसे तोड़े (बिना -ly, गलत स्थान), वही उत्तर।

Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the given word.
Exculpate
  1. ACondone
  2. BCondemn
  3. CAbsolve
  4. DVindicate
Show answer

Concept: Exculpate = to free from blame (ex = out, culpa = guilt).

  1. Opposite = declare guilty ⇒ Condemn.
  2. Absolve, Vindicate = clear of blame (synonyms).
  3. Condone = overlook a wrong – still on the 'forgiving' side.

Trick: 'Culpa' = guilt (culprit, culpable). Ex-culpate = take guilt out ⇒ antonym puts guilt on ⇒ condemn/inculpate.

Answer: (B) Condemn

अवधारणा: Exculpate = दोषमुक्त करना (ex = बाहर, culpa = दोष)।

  1. विलोम = दोषी ठहराना ⇒ Condemn.
  2. Absolve, Vindicate = दोष से मुक्त करना (समानार्थी)।
  3. Condone = गलती को अनदेखा करना — यह भी क्षमा की ओर।

ट्रिक: 'Culpa' = दोष (culprit, culpable)। Ex-culpate = दोष हटाना ⇒ विलोम = दोष लगाना = condemn.

Concept: Keep the tense consistent with the narration.

  1. The passage is in the past: 'was', 'kept', 'seemed'.
  2. The clause has no helping verb ⇒ simple past 'carried'.
  3. 'Carrying' needs was/is; 'carries' is present; 'carry' doesn't agree with 'he'.

Trick: Scan nearby verbs (was, kept) – the blank copies their tense.

Answer: (B) carried

  1. गद्यांश भूतकाल में है: 'was', 'kept', 'seemed'।
