Practice questions
Q1Select the most appropriate one-word substitute: A large building in which aircraft are kept
A hangar is a large building used to house and maintain aircraft. Depot, garage, and harbour refer to other storage or shelter places for goods, cars, or ships.
Q2Select the most appropriate one-word substitute: Branch of science that deals with earthquakes
Seismology is the science that studies earthquakes and the propagation of seismic waves. Broader or neighbouring earth sciences are not the exact one-word match.
Q3Select the most appropriate one-word substitute: A person who loves or collects books
A bibliophile is a person who loves or collects books. Librarian and publisher work with books in institutional or commercial roles, and a manuscript is a document rather than a person.
Q4Select the most appropriate one-word substitute: one who always expects favourable outcomes.
An optimist habitually expects favourable outcomes. Idealist, fatalist, and realist name other outlooks—principle-driven hope, belief in fate, and hard-headed acceptance—so only optimist fits.
Q5Select the most appropriate one-word substitute: The scientific study of birds
Ornithology is the branch of science devoted to birds. Related life-science labels such as entomology or zoology name different fields and are not exact substitutes.
