Choose the correct substitution: "She likes apples. She eats apples every day."
The question asks for the correct pronoun to replace the repeated noun "apples" in the second sentence. We need to identify the grammatical function (subject/object) and number (singular/plural) of the noun being replaced to choose the appropriate pronoun.
Correct Option: C) Them
The question asks to find a suitable single-word substitution for the phrase "I will do the work." This requires identifying a word that conveys the action of performing the work in a concise manner.
Correct Option: A) Do
The word "Do" can function as a pro-verb, replacing a verb phrase. In the sentence "I will do the work," "do" is the main verb. If we want to substitute the entire phrase "do the work," the word "do" itself can stand in for the action, especially when the context is clear. For instance, if someone asks, "Who will complete the assignment?" a suitable answer could be, "I will do." Here, "do" stands for "complete the assignment." Similarly, for "I will do the work," if the context is established, "I will do" is a complete and meaningful response.
The question asks for the correct substitution to combine two similar sentences: "He can run fast" and "I can run fast too." We need to find a word that effectively links these two ideas, indicating that the second statement shares a characteristic with the first, without being redundant.
Correct Option: A) So
The sentence can be correctly rephrased as "He can run fast, and so can I." Here, "so" acts as a pro-form, standing in for "run fast," and the auxiliary verb "can" is inverted with the subject "I" to show agreement.
The question asks for the correct substitution to avoid repetition of the noun "girl" in the sentence "She is a clever girl. I want to meet a clever girl." We need to choose a pronoun or a pro-form that can replace the repeated noun phrase "clever girl" appropriately.
Correct Option: A) One is the correct substitution because it is a pronoun that can replace a singular countable noun (girl) that has been previously mentioned, especially when it is modified by an adjective (clever).
The question asks to replace the repeated subject in the given sentences: "The boys are playing. The boys are tired." We need to find a pronoun that can correctly substitute "The boys" in the second sentence to avoid repetition and maintain grammatical correctness.
Correct Option: A) They
The sentence requires an adjective that describes the manner in which one should behave when a baby is sleeping. We need to choose the word that best fits the context of maintaining silence to avoid disturbing the sleeping baby.
Correct Option: A) quiet
