Answers and Solutions for CAT English Questions with Answers PDF:
Solutions:
1) Answer (B)
It’s is a concise way of writing ‘it is’. We can rule out options a) and d) because of this. The meaning of ‘enhance’ is ‘increase the quality of’. However, in this sentence, there is only an increase in expense. So, ‘increase’ is a more suitable word in this context. Option b) is the correct answer.
2) Answer (D)
The sentence is talking about three things. There is no need of commas within each part of the sentence. We can rule out options a) and b). The three parts of the sentence are independent clauses, so they are best separated by a semi-colon. Option d) is the correct answer.
3) Answer (B)
A comma is needed after the name of the person. Also, ‘who’ is used while referring to the subject of the sentence. Both these requirements are satisfied in option b).
