Synonyms · solved example
Choose the word that is most nearly the SAME in meaning as: ABUNDANT
Solution
"abundant" means existing in large quantity. The word most nearly similar in meaning is "plentiful".
Fill in the blanks · solved example
Pick the pair of words that best fills the two blanks. The auditor's report was so ____ that even the board found it difficult to ____ a single loophole.
Solution
A report so 'thorough' leaves nothing out, which is why even the board could scarcely 'detect' a loophole. The other pairs break the cause-and-effect the sentence sets up with 'so ... that'.
Error spotting · solved example
Find the segment that contains a grammatical error: (A) The collection of these tools (B) were not (C) up to the mark (D) this season.
Solution
The subject is "the collection", which is singular, so it should be "was not", not "were not".
Error spotting · solved example
Find the part of the sentence that contains an error. If there is no error, choose option E. Neither the branch manager nor the clerks (A) / was aware (B) / that the circular had been (C) / withdrawn a week earlier (D).
Solution
With 'neither ... nor', the verb agrees with the subject nearer to it. The nearer subject here is 'the clerks', which is plural, so 'was aware' must become 'were aware'. The trap is that the sentence opens with a singular noun, 'the branch manager', which makes the singular verb sound right. Reverse the two subjects to test it: 'Neither the clerks nor the branch manager was aware' is correct as written, and that is the same rule producing the opposite verb.
