Question 57

Given below are two statements :
Statement I: "VERY" is used with adjectives, past participles used as adjectives and adverbs.
Statement II: But "VERY" is not used with past participles that have a passive meaning.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Solution

Option A is the correct answer. Both Statement I and Statement II are true

Statement I: "VERY" is used to modify adjectives (e.g., very happy), past participles functioning as adjectives (e.g., very pleased), and adverbs (e.g., very quickly), which makes Statement I true.

Statement II: "VERY" cannot modify past participles with passive meanings because in such cases, the participles act as verbs rather than adjectives (e.g., very punished is incorrect), confirming Statement II is also true.
