Practice questions

Q1A student underlines therefore in a passage. What should the teacher ask next?

A Which example is listed after the sentence?
B Which opposite idea is being introduced?
C Which result follows from the previous idea?
D Which word has the same pronunciation?
Explanation

Asha’s underline is useful only when it leads to relation naming. Therefore asks her to connect a previous fact with a result, which is central to passage comprehension.

Q2Which set is named directly with Unseen Prose Passage in the RBSE Language II English syllabus?

A Linking Devices, Subject-Verb Concord, Inferences
B Alliteration, rhyme and metaphor only
C Essay writing, letter writing and dialogue
D Phonetic transcription and speech organs
Explanation

Asha should remember this anchor exactly because it fixes the scope of preparation. The prose passage is not a general literature topic; it tests connector relations, agreement in sentences and supported inference from fresh text.

Q3Which option best describes the teacher’s use of authored practice passages?

A They may be used for practice and labelled as teacher-authored.
B They should be cited as RBSE passages whenever the teacher writes them carefully.
C They must avoid all connector words to keep grammar separate.
D They should test only dictionary meanings, not context.
Explanation

Maryam can practise on teacher-authored passages, but source honesty matters. The passage may train RBSE skills while still being labelled as classroom-designed rather than official syllabus text.

Q4In the sentence “The players and the coach are ready,” why is are correct?

A Coach is singular, so a plural verb is always used after it.
B The sentence is about sports, and sports nouns take plural verbs.
C Players is near the verb, so the nearest noun controls it.
D Players and coach together form a compound plural subject.
Explanation

Devika should see the subject as players and coach together. The verb agrees with that compound subject, not with topic, distance, or a single nearby noun.

Q5Match the connector with its usual relation: however, because, therefore, for example.

A contrast, result, reason, condition
B reason, contrast, example, result
C sequence, reason, contrast, result
D contrast, reason, result, example
Explanation

The correct match helps Asha read relations before options. However turns the direction, because cause, therefore gives result, and for example supplies support or illustration.
