Q:

Improve the given sentence if necessary.

This scooter is not efficient as it used to be; instead it is still a very useful machine.

A) similarly B) further more
C) nevertheless D) No improvement
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) nevertheless

Explanation:

‘Instead’ is used as an alternative or substitute and is not relevant in this context. ‘Nevertheless’ will be used as it means ‘inspite of that’. Thus, the correct formation would be, ‘This scooter is not as efficient as it used to be; nevertheless it is still a very useful machine.

Q:

Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives.


Everyone expected Mary Zophres to win for her retro-revival Technicolor clothes in La La Land — the eventual winner, Colleen Atwood for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, seemed surprised too. But as other awards began to slip away from the well-reviewed musical, a theme could be teased out. What is Fantastic Beasts if not a plea for equal treatment of people, magical or otherwise? Then, Arrival, a film about the inherent benignity of aliens (read immigrants) won for Best Sound Editing. Hacksaw Ridge, which is, in a way, an anti-guns movie, won in two categories. Fences, about an African-American father who fears racial discrimination, took home the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. Earlier, Moonlight, featuring two minority communities (black and gay), won for Best Supporting Actor. This turned out to be one of those years the Oscar voter was underestimated. As a majority of voters are actors, there was the tendency to think they'd reward La La Land, a celebration of creation: the heroine wants to make movies, the hero wants to make jazz. It looked like the year of The Artist all over again.

 

Which of the following movies is about kindness of Aliens?

A) Hacksaw Ridge B) Arrival
C) Fences D) Moonlight
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Arrival
