No sooner did the teacher come into the class when we stood up.
a) since
b) then
c) than
d) No improvement
16) Answer (C)
Solution:
The combination of “did” with the “bare infinitive” is sometimes called an “emphatic” tense, and so the first sentence might be more “emphatic,” calling attention to the fact that the teacher really entered the room.
The expression ‘no sooner…than’ is used to suggest that one action or situation takes place/took place immediately after another action or situation.
When ‘no sooner’ goes at the beginning of the sentence, we use an inverted word order. That means the auxiliary verb goes before the subject.
Hence option C

Though he worked hard, but he failed.
a) and
b) yet
c) then
d) No improvement

Solution:
Use of “but” here is wrong cause Though is followed by ‘yet’. When though / although / even though is used with a verb, which is in the subjunctive mood, mainly expressing doubt, a condition contrary to a fact, a wish, or a concession, it should be followed by yet. Yet actually means still.
Hence B
