The sentence means that the book was so fascinating that it kept the speaker engaged for hours.2、Which of the following sentence structures is an example of a reported speech?A. “She said, ‘I will finish the project tomorrow.’”B. “She said that she will finish the project tomorrow.”C. “She was saying that she will finish the project tomorrow.”D. “She told me that she will finish the project tomorrow.”Answer: B. “She said that she will finish the project tomorrow.”Explanation: Reported speech involves changing a direct quote into an indirect one.

Option A is the direct speech, C is a possible past continuous form of reported speech, and D is a different type of indirect speech where the speaker is telling the listener what was said.3、The following sentence is written in passive voice. Which word in the sentence indicates the agent (the person or thing doing the action)?A)is beingB)was beingC)has beenD)had beenAnswer: B) was beingExplanation: The word “was being” indicates the agent in a passive voice sentence. In this structure, the agent is often expressed by an infinitive phrase beginning with “by,” but it can also be understood from context. Without additional information, “was being” suggests that there is an agent involved in the action described by the sentence.4、Choose the sentence that correctly uses the past perfect tense to express an action that was completed before another past action.A)I had finished my homework when the bell rang.B)I finished my homework before I left.C)When I arrived at the party, it had already started.D)I was finishing my homework when I heard the phone ring.Answer: C) When I arrived at the party, it had already started.Explanation: The past perfect tense is used to describe an action that was completed before another past action. In option C, “it had already started” indicates an action that was completed be fore “I arrived,” making it the correct choice. Options A and B use the past perfect tense, but they do not correctly express the sequence of past events as required by the question. Option D uses the past continuous tense to describe an action in progress at a specific past time.5、What is the most appropriate tense to use in the following sentence to describe an event that happened in the past and is still relevant today?A)The students had successfully completed the project.B)The students are completing the project.C)The students will complete the project.D)The students were completing the project.Answer: AExplanation: The correct answer is “had successfully completed” because it indicates an action that was completed in the past (past perfect tense) and is still a relevant event in the present. The other options do not convey this past and ongoing relevance. “Are completing” is present continuous, “will complete” is future simple, and “were completing” is past continuous, none of which fit the context as well as the past perfect tense.6、In the sentence “The novel explores the psychological effects of social isolation,” which part of speech is “explores”?A)VerbB)NounC)AdverbD)AdjectiveAnswer: AExplanation: The word “explores” is a verb because it indicates an action or state that the subject of the sentence (the novel) is performing.

Jargon is specialized language used in a particular field, colloquialism is informal language, and metaphor is a figure of speechthat directly compares two things without using “like” or “as.”8、In the following sentence, the word “pivotal” is used as an adjective. What is the most likely part of speech it modifies?A)NounB)VerbC)AdverbD)PrepositionAnswer: A) NounExplanation: The word “pivotal” means being a central or turning point. In the sentence, it modifies a noun to describe its importance or central role. For example, “The pivotal role of the teacher in the success of the project cannot be overstated.” Here, “pivotal” is an adjective modifying the noun “role.” Verbs are not modified by adjectives, adverbs modify verbs or adjectives, and prepositions are used to show relationships between nouns.9.What is the most appropriate strategy to use when teaching a new vocabulary word to students who are at the beginning level of English?A)Have students translate the word into their native language.B)Use pictures or realia to illustrate the meaning of the word.C)Ask students to define the word without any context.D)Provide a list of synonyms for the word.Answer: B) Use pictures or realia to illustrate the meaning of the word.Explanation: For beginning level students, using pictures or realia (objects or items) can help them understand the meaning of new vocabulary ina concrete and relatable way. Translating into a native language can lead to translation errors and may not help with understanding the word in an English context. Asking students to define the word without context can be challenging for beginners, and providing a list of synonyms might be too advanced for this level.10.Which of the following activities is most likely to engage students in critical thinking and analysis of a text?A)Repeating the main ideas of the text in their own words.B)Answering comprehension questions about the text.C)Creating a mind map of the text’s structure.D)Discussing the text’s themes and how they relate to current events.Answer: D) Discussing the text’s themes and how they relate to current events.Explanation: Discussing the text’s themes and their relevance to current events encourages students to think critically and analytically. It allows them to make connections between the text and their own world, fostering deeper understanding and engagement. While repeating main ideas, answering comprehension questions, and creating a mind map are valuable activities, they may not necessarily promote the same level of critical thinking and analysis.11.Th e sentence “The book is lying on the table” is an example of which type of sentence structure?A) SimpleB) CompoundC) ComplexD) Compound-complexAnswer: A) SimpleExplanation: A simple sentence consists of a single independent clause with no dependent c lauses.

Subject + because + verbB. Subject + so + verbC. Subject + although + verbD. Subject + since + verbAnswer: AExplanation: The correct sentence structure to express a reason or cause is “Subject + because + verb.” This structure is used to introduce a dependent clause that explains the reason for the action in the main clause.

The other options contain dependent clauses that depend on the main clause to be complete sentences.18.In the context of teaching a lesson on Shakespearean sonnets, which of the following is the best approach to engage students in critical analysis?A.
