Q1In the sentence "yah kathin prashn hai", which word functions as a visheshan?
Shabd-bhed is decided by a word's function in the sentence. In "yah kathin prashn hai", "prashn" names the thing and is therefore the noun. "yah" points to that noun, while "hai" is the finite verb. The word "kathin" tells what kind of question it is; it qualifies the noun "prashn". A word that qualifies a noun or pronoun is a visheshan, so "kathin" is the only defensible answer.
Q2Match the expression with the correct case relation. List I: 1. “kalam se” in “Ram ne kalam se patra likha” 2. “ped se” in “Ped se phal gira” 3. “Mohan ko” in “Mohan ko pustak di” 4. “mez par” in “Mez par pustak hai” List II: a. Sampradan b. Adhikaran c. Karan d. Apadan
Postpositions help but do not by themselves decide the case relation. In “kalam se patra likha”, “kalam” is the means, so it is karan. In “ped se phal gira”, “se” shows separation or source, so it is apadan. In “Mohan ko pustak di”, Mohan receives the book, so it is sampradan. In “mez par pustak hai”, “par” gives the location or base, so it is adhikaran.
Q3Read the statements and choose the correct conclusion. Statement 1: Tense tells the time of an action. Statement 2: Aspect tells whether the action is habitual, continuing or completed. In the form "padh raha tha", what should be identified?
Tense and aspect to be read together. Time is marked by auxiliaries such as "hai", "tha" and "hoga", while aspect is shown by forms such as habitual, progressive and perfective. In "padh raha tha", "tha" gives the past-time signal and "raha" shows that the action was continuing. It is therefore not merely past and not completed. The combined reading is past progressive, expressed in Hindi as bhut apurn.
Q4Which tense is shown by the verb form in 'vah jayega'?
Tense is defined through the time reference of the action. Present tense covers actions happening now or generally, past tense covers completed or past action, and future tense points to action that will happen later. The form 'vah jayega' contains the future marker comparable to 'ga', and the English notes list 'vah jayega' as an example of future tense. The useful cue is the verb ending, read with the time sense. So the verb form shows future tense.
Q5Assertion (A): In karm vachya, the object or result becomes central. Reason (R): A passive form such as 'patr likha gaya' places the letter and the completed action in focus. Choose the correct answer.
Voice is described as the way a sentence presents the relation among doer, action and object. Kartr vachya highlights the doer, while karm vachya highlights the object or result. The passive form 'patr likha gaya' makes the letter and the completed action more important than the doer. That example is not merely another true fact; it demonstrates exactly how the object becomes central in karm vachya. Therefore, both statements are true and the reason explains the assertion.
