Practice questions

Q1A teacher wants children to notice adjectives while reading a story. Which plan is best?

A Ask children to memorise all degrees of comparison before reading the story.
B Avoid adjectives because grammar should never appear during reading.
C Correct spelling, handwriting and adjective use all at the same time.
D Read a sentence, ask what the describing word tells about the noun, then let children create a similar sentence.
Explanation

The plan keeps grammar inside meaningful reading. Devika first notices how a describing word adds detail to a noun, then creates a sentence of her own. This is more useful than memorising a list before reading.

Q2In the sentence "A box of crayons is on the table", which word controls the verb "is"?

A box
B crayons
C table
D crayons is
Explanation

Asha should look for the head subject before the prepositional phrase. In this sentence, box is singular and controls the verb. Crayons is close to the verb, but it is part of "of crayons" and does not decide subject-verb concord.

Q3Which statement set is correct? 1. The same word can change part of speech by sentence use. 2. Every grammar error should be corrected immediately during free speaking. 3. Subject-verb concord needs the real subject, not the nearest noun.

A 1 and 2 only
B 2 and 3 only
C 1 only
D 1 and 3 only
Explanation

The word drink can be a verb in one sentence and a noun in another, so statement 1 is true. Concord also needs the real subject, as Karan saw in box of crayons. Immediate correction of every free-speaking error is not sound primary pedagogy.

Q4Which activity best introduces nouns and verbs to Class 2 children?

A Sort picture cards into naming words and doing words, then build oral sentences.
B Dictate eight definitions and ask the class to copy them silently.
C Begin with transitive and intransitive verb rules from upper-primary grammar.
D Correct every spoken error immediately during a child's story.
Explanation

The best Level 1 method starts with concrete meaning and oral use. Imran can sort pictures into naming and doing words before he learns the terms noun and verb. This follows the child-friendly, activity-based approach expected in primary English teaching.

Q5Which pair is correctly identified?

A "under the table" - conjunction; "and" - preposition
B "quickly" - adjective; "red" - adverb
C "because" - conjunction; "near the door" - preposition phrase
D "she" - noun; "teacher" - pronoun
Explanation

Because joins two ideas, so it is a conjunction. Near the door begins with the relation word near and works as a preposition phrase. Meena can test this by using the words inside a full sentence.
