Reliance Jio Sentence Improvement and Construction Quiz 1

The correct sentence will be - Mohan is as slow as or perhaps slower than Sarina.

The term as (adjective) as is a format that is used to denote a positive degree comparison between two subjects. In the sentence above, the format is broken and 'as' after the adjective is missing which is incorrect. So we use 'as slow as' to fix the sentence grammatically.

The correct sentence will be - This Student is the most talented student in our school.

“All the other students”  is removed because it is redundant to use this phrase. it is obvious that is a superlative degree i=of comparison is being used, then it is denoted to one out of all. hence, instead of all other students, we can only use 'most talented student' to make it grammatically correct.

The correct sentence will be - Divyam loves singing, dancing and reading.

When we use different verbs to denote it to one specific subject, we eliminate the use of multiple articles before each of the verbs.

According to rules, articles are only used before nouns, adjective and adverbs mostly.

The correct sentence will be - She asked her friend to explain the whole chapter again.

Here we replace 'Told' with 'asked' because the tone of the sentence is a request and not imperative.

 The given sentence is in correct form.

Explanation : Snell discovered the law of refraction.

There is a difference in the meaning of the words Discovered and explored.

Discovered means to to find or learn something that nobody had found or knew before

While, explored means to travel around a place, etc. in order to learn about it

Here, the context says that the Laws of refraction were founded by Snell, meaning 'discovered'.

Invented refers to a materialistic gadget that is invented or created by man while decoded means to crack a code which is already existing. hence neither of the two words is correct.

Explanation : The correct sentence will be - Had you told teachers about your problems, They would have helped you find a solution.

The sentence here is a third conditional sentence which means to talk about impossible situations, in the past. We often use the third conditional to describe regrets.


The structure followed here is: If + had / or only had -------- would have + past participle.

So the sentence should be -  Had you told the teachers about your problems, they would have helped you find a solution.

Explanation : The correct sentence will be - This is the most remarkable book we remember to have ever read challenging the  Protestant belief system.

When using time 'modifiers' such as ever, it is important to place it before the correct noun/verb to not make the sentence grammatically incorrect and meaningless.


here, the main context is 'reading a book' and not remembering it. So the word 'ever' should be used before the main verb 'read' and not before or after remember.

 

The correct sentence will be - They put in a tremendous amount of work to complete the project.

Work is used here as mentioned about completion of the project. If it had been regarding achieving something abstract, we could have used 'dedication or persistent or any such word' but here we have a noun which we can see, hence we use an action verb 'work'.

The correct sentence will be - Despite being poor, Amisha was the kindest


This sentence presents two different kinds of adjectives - poor and kind.

So we know that this is a contrasting idea of being poor but also being kind.

Hence, we use a contrasting conjunctions instead of 'but', 'and' 'not only but also'.
