Answers & Solutions:
1) Answer (C)
The structure of the sentence should be “suggest bringing down…”. This eliminates options a) and d). In the second part of the sentence, the structure should be “others advocate” and not “others are advocating”. So, option c) is the correct answer.
2) Answer (C)
Options a), b) and d) are grammatically incorrect.
Option A – In the sentence, “that it was essential that things they portrayed” ,definite article (the) should be used in front of the noun(things).
Option B- This sentence implies that having every relevant detail shown as clearly as possible is important for the things that Egyptians portray. However, having every detail shown was important for the effective functioning of the things Egyptians portray. Hence this is grammatically incorrect.
Option D – Consider the phrase “that when they portrayed things, it should have”. The correct phrasing would be “that when they portrayed things, they should have” or “that when they portrayed a thing, it should have”. There is a singular plural mismatch occurring here. Hence this option is incorrect as well.
The correct sentence is “The ancient Egyptians believed it was essential that the things they portrayed had every relevant feature shown as clearly as possible, so that when these objects were magically reanimated through the correct rituals, they would be able to functions effectively.”
3) Answer (D)
Option b) is wrong because because of the use of the word “are”. Option c) is wrong because it implies that the pieces are “3400 years old with reasonable certainity”. Option a) is incorrect because of the use fo the phrase “as being about”. Option d) is grammatically correct.
4) Answer (B)
Option C and Option D are grammatically incorrect. Amendments are countable noun so it is many more. The correct sentence is “The present constitution will see many more amendments but its basic structure will survive.”
5) Answer (A)
Option b and option c are eliminated because they are incomplete comparisons. When we say “more crucial” it is in comparison to something else. Among option a and option d, option a is more suitable because it shows the urgency in much more plausible manner.

6) Answer (A)
“Break Down” is the correct usage as break down means to remove something.
7) Answer (C)
Option D is incorrect as it contradicts the statements as “rulers do not get ruled.” Option A is contextually incorrect as it does not make any sense. Option B is incorrect as powerfully corrupt is grammatically incorrect. Option C is the best match.
8) Answer (B)
Farmers face problems due to the spiralling prices. So they protest in order to make their pleas head. “Virility” means manliness which has no context in this passage. The protest need not curb the prices. It will make their pleas heard. “Topple the government” is an extreme form which does not demand merit in this passage. Option B is the correct answer.
9) Answer (B)
Option A is incorrect as principally is an incorrect usage. Principal means a chief which does not go in this context. Hencee C is incorrect. Among B and D, B is more suitable as in principle means in primary rule which goes with the tone of the passage.
10) Answer (C)
Swindle means to use deception to deprive someone’s possession. It means that you have an unequal exchange where you didn’t give much of your possession and you robbed the other person of his/her possession. Option C summarises it correctly.
