Which word is the verb in the sentence 'The dog ran quickly'?
dog
ran
quickly
The
The word 'ran' describes the action performed by the dog, making it the verb in the sentence. The other options function as a noun, an adverb, and an article respectively.
Which sentence is grammatically correct?
We are learning English.
He don't like apples.
She are happy.
They is playing soccer.
The sentence 'We are learning English.' uses proper subject-verb agreement. The other options have errors in subject-verb agreement.
Select the sentence that correctly uses a comma.
After the movie, we went out for dinner.
After the movie we went out for dinner.
After, the movie we went out for dinner.
After the movie we, went out for dinner.
Option A correctly places a comma after the introductory phrase, setting off the clause properly. The other options either omit the necessary comma or use it incorrectly.
Which of these words is a preposition?
quickly
under
jump
happy
Prepositions are words that show relationships between other words in a sentence. 'Under' is the only preposition among the options presented.
What is the adjective in the sentence 'The bright sun warmed the earth'?
bright
sun
warmed
earth
Adjectives describe or modify nouns. In this sentence, 'bright' describes the noun 'sun,' making it the adjective.
Which sentence demonstrates correct subject-verb agreement?
The list of books is on the table.
The list of books are on the table.
The list of books were on the table.
The list of books be on the table.
Option A correctly uses the singular verb 'is' to agree with the singular subject 'list'. The other options incorrectly use plural verb forms.
Identify the sentence that properly uses a semicolon.
I have a big test tomorrow; I can't go out tonight.
I have a big test tomorrow, I can't go out tonight.
I have a big test tomorrow; and I can't go out tonight.
I have a big test tomorrow I can't go out tonight;
A semicolon is correctly used in option A to separate two independent clauses without a conjunction. The other options misuse punctuation by either combining with a comma or misplacing the semicolon.
Which sentence uses a subordinating conjunction correctly?
I went to bed early because I was tired.
I went to bed early, and I was tired.
Because, I was tired I went to bed early.
I was tired I went to bed early because.
The subordinating conjunction 'because' in option A correctly links the dependent clause with the independent clause. The other options misapply punctuation or include coordinating conjunctions.
Identify the error in the sentence: 'Neither the teacher nor the students was ready for the exam.'
The use of 'neither/nor' requires a singular verb for both subjects.
The teacher should be plural.
The verb 'was' should be 'were' to agree with the plural noun 'students'.
The article 'The' is used incorrectly.
In a 'neither/nor' construction, the verb should agree with the subject closest to it. Since 'students' is plural, the correct verb should be 'were' instead of 'was'.
Which sentence correctly uses the possessive form?
The cats tail is fluffy.
The cat's tail is fluffy.
The cat tail's is fluffy.
The cats' tail is fluffy.
Option B correctly shows possession by using the apostrophe before 's' to indicate that the tail belongs to the cat. The other options either omit the apostrophe or misplace it.
Which sentence is written in passive voice?
The pitcher threw the ball.
The ball was thrown by the pitcher.
The ball threw by the pitcher.
The pitcher has thrown the ball.
Passive voice is used when the subject of the sentence is acted upon by the verb. Option B is structured in passive voice because the ball receives the action.
Select the sentence that correctly uses a relative pronoun.
The girl, who won the contest, is my friend.
The girl which won the contest is my friend.
The girl who won, the contest is my friend.
The girl who the contest was won by is my friend.
Option A correctly employs the relative pronoun 'who' to introduce a non-restrictive clause. The other options either use the wrong relative pronoun or have punctuation issues.
Which sentence correctly capitalizes proper nouns?
We visited paris during our summer vacation.
We visited Paris during our summer vacation.
We visited paris during our Summer Vacation.
We visited PARIS during our summer vacation.
Proper nouns must be capitalized to denote specific names. Option B correctly capitalizes 'Paris' as it refers to the city, making it the correct choice.
Identify the correct use of an apostrophe in a contraction.
Its raining outside.
It's raining outside.
Its' raining outside.
It is raining outside.
The contraction for 'it is' requires an apostrophe to indicate omitted letters. Option B correctly shows the contraction 'It's' for 'it is'.
Which sentence correctly uses parallel structure?
She likes dancing, singing, and to swim.
She enjoys dancing, singing, and swimming.
She likes dancing, to sing, and swimming.
She enjoys dancing, singing, and to swim.
Parallel structure requires that elements in a list maintain the same grammatical form. Option B uses only gerunds, ensuring that the list is parallel.
Determine the error in the complex sentence: 'Although he studied hard, but he failed the test.'
The use of 'although' and 'but' is redundant.
The adjective 'hard' is incorrectly placed.
The verb 'studied' should be in present tense.
The sentence lacks a proper subject.
Using both 'although' and 'but' to connect clauses is redundant and grammatically incorrect. The sentence should use one or the other to maintain clarity.
Which transformation maintains the original meaning of the sentence: 'Neither John nor Mary attended the meeting'?
Both John and Mary attended the meeting.
John and Mary did not attend the meeting.
Either John or Mary did not attend the meeting.
John did not attend the meeting, and Mary did.
The transformation in option B preserves the meaning that both John and Mary were absent. The other options either reverse the meaning or create ambiguity.
Analyze the sentence: 'Having finished the assignment late at night, the essay was submitted by Maria the next morning.' What is the error in this sentence?
The sentence contains a dangling modifier; it is unclear who finished the assignment.
The sentence uses passive voice incorrectly.
The sentence misuses the preposition 'by'.
The sentence fails to maintain parallel structure.
The introductory phrase 'Having finished the assignment late at night' is a dangling modifier because it does not clearly refer to the appropriate subject. This misleads the reader about who completed the assignment.
Choose the best revision for the following unclear sentence: 'This book, which is on the table, was lost by someone.'
Someone lost this book that is on the table.
The book on the table was lost.
This book, which is on the table, seems to have been lost by someone.
On the table lies a book that someone lost.
Option B provides a clear and concise revision by directly stating the situation without extraneous details. This revision effectively removes ambiguity from the sentence.
Identify the error in the following sentence: 'Each of the players have completed their training routine.'
The verb should be 'has' to match the singular subject 'each'.
The pronoun 'their' is incorrect; it should be 'his or her'.
The players should be preceded by an article for clarity.
No error; the sentence is grammatically acceptable.
When using 'each' as the subject, the verb must be singular. Option A correctly identifies that 'have' should be replaced by 'has' to comply with subject-verb agreement.

Math & Grammar Practice Cheat Sheet

  1. Master subject‑verb agreement - Keeping your subjects and verbs in harmony is like a catchy melody: singular goes with singular, plural with plural. For example, "The dog barks" versus "The dogs bark." Get the groove with this tip and make your sentences sing! englishclub.com
  2. Pronoun clarity - Pronouns are your stand‑ins, but mix‑ups can cause chaos! Remember "he" for a guy, "she" for a gal, and use "they" when you want to keep things gender‑neutral or talk about a group. Using the right pronoun is like giving your sentence the perfect outfit - it just fits! grammarbook.com
  3. Beware of homophones - Homophones are words that sound like twins but have totally different personalities and spellings. Mix up "their," "there," and "they're," and you might invite a grammar gremlin into your writing. Keep a cheat sheet handy so these tricky trio don't trip you up! yourdictionary.com
  4. Adjective vs adverb magic - Adjectives dress up nouns ("a speedy fox"), while adverbs spice up verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs ("she runs speedily"). Using them correctly is like painting your prose with vibrant colors instead of gray! Love the details? Learn more to polish your style. englishgrammar.org
  5. Smooth conjunctions - Conjunctions are the glue that holds your ideas together - use "and," "but," or "or" for buddies, and "because," "although," or "since" when one idea depends on another. They're like traffic signals guiding your thoughts in the right direction. Proper use ensures a smooth ride for your reader! englishgrammar.org
  6. Prefer active voice - Active sentences leap off the page: "The cat chased the mouse" packs more punch than "The mouse was chased by the cat." It makes your writing clear, direct, and way more exciting - no nap‑inducing fluff here! Give your verbs the spotlight they deserve. yourdictionary.com
  7. Complete sentences - Every sentence needs a hero (subject) and an action (verb) to stand tall - "She dances" wins the story, but "Dances" is just a lonely fragment. Fragments are like half‑finished puzzles; complete them for the full picture. Aim for the whole enchilada every time! englishclub.com
  8. Adjective placement - Always put your adjective before the noun it's charming - think "a juicy slice," not "a slice juicy." Otherwise, readers might do a double‑take (and not in a good way). Proper placement keeps your prose crisp and clear! englishclub.com
  9. Skip redundant words - Redundancies are like wearing two watches: totally unnecessary! Saying "free gift" is redundant because gifts are already free - ditch the extra baggage and keep your writing sleek. Readers will thank you for the minimalist style. theteachingcouple.com
  10. "Your" vs "You're" - These two are a classic trap: "your" shows possession ("Your backpack rocks"), while "you're" is short for "you are" ("You're rocking that backpack"). Mixing them up is like confusing salt for sugar - tasty disaster! Master this and impress every reader. yourdictionary.com
