Explanations

Q1. You are younger __ me.

Correct answer: than

At — used for specific times or places (for example: at 5 pm, at the bus stop). Not used for comparisons.

In — used for months, years, or larger locations (for example: in July, in France). Not used for comparisons.

Upon — a formal preposition meaning 'on' or 'immediately after'; it is not used to compare ages.

Than — the correct word to make a comparison: You are younger than I (or than me). In formal contexts you may hear "You are younger than I (am)," but "than me" is common in conversation.

Q2. Take care __ your parents.

Correct answer: of

At — not used here.

To — suggests direction or movement (give to), not looking after someone.

By — indicates method or agent (for example: by train, by John), not responsibility.

Of — correct: "take care of someone" means to look after them or be responsible for their wellbeing.

Q3. She married __ him last year.

Correct answer: (no preposition)

with — incorrect in this active sentence; you would not say "married with him."

within — indicates time limits (for example: within a week) and is not appropriate here.

to — sometimes learners say "married to" but that form is used in a different structure: "She is married to him" (adjectival/passive meaning).

No preposition — correct: the active verb marry takes a direct object: "She married him last year." If you want a passive or adjectival structure, say "She was married to him" or "She is married to him."

Q4. Pooja's hair is ______ and curly.

Correct answer: long

happy — describes emotion, not hair.

early — describes time and is not used for hair description.

long — correct: this describes hair length. We can say "Pooja's hair is long and curly." Another natural alternative is "Pooja has long, curly hair."

Q5. Max drives a new red car which is very ______.

Correct answer: fast

roar — a noun referring to a loud sound; not an adjective describing a car.

slim — describes thinness and is not a natural description for most cars.

fast — correct: this describes the speed or performance of the car: "a car which is very fast."

Q6. We had ______ holiday in Europe.

Correct answer: relaxing

high — not a collocation with holiday.

slow — possible in some contexts but not natural here.

relaxing — correct: "a relaxing holiday" means a restful, pleasant vacation.

Q7. Are you sure this is ______ man who stole the bike?

Correct answer: the

a — indefinite article; not correct when we mean a particular man who is identified or already known in context.

an — used before vowel sounds; "man" begins with a consonant sound so "an" is incorrect.

the — correct: we use the definite article when referring to a specific person or thing (the man who stole the bike).

Q8. I'm studying ______ geography this month.

Correct answer: (no article)

a / an — not used with academic subjects in this sense.

on — wrong preposition for the subject.

No article — correct: subjects are usually used without an article: "I'm studying geography." If you meant a specific course you could say "the geography of Europe," but for the subject alone no article is required.

Q9. I ______ to school.

Correct answer: go

go — correct for the simple present with I: "I go to school."

goes — wrong form for the first person; "he/she goes" is third person singular.

gone / going — wrong verb forms for this simple present meaning.

Q10. She didn't ______ a mistake.

Correct answer: make

made — incorrect after did; the auxiliary did already indicates past, so we use the base form.

make — correct: "She didn't make a mistake."

makes / making — wrong tense or form for this structure.

Q11. We have lived here ______ five years.

Correct answer: for

since — used with a specific start point in time (for example: since 2018).

for — correct with a duration: "for five years."

at / to — incorrect prepositions for expressing a duration.

Q12. I usually ______ to bed at 11.

Correct answer: go

go — correct: "I usually go to bed at 11." The adverb "usually" commonly appears between subject and main verb.

goes / gone / going — incorrect forms for this simple present statement.

Q13. This car is ______ than that one.

Correct answer: faster

faster — correct comparative form of fast: "faster than."

fastly — not a standard English adverb for this meaning.

fastest — superlative, used with "the," not with "than" in a direct comparison of two items.

Q14. She speaks English ______ than her brother.

Correct answer: better

good — adjective (not the correct adverb form) and not comparative here.

well — adverb (positive) but not comparative; we need "better" to compare.

better — correct comparative adverb: "She speaks English better than her brother."

best — superlative form; use when comparing more than two and indicating the top degree.

Q15. By this time next year, I ______ finished the project.

Correct answer: will have finished

will finished — incorrect verb form; the future perfect requires "will have" + past participle.

will have finished — correct: future perfect to indicate completion before a point in the future.

would finished / would have finished — conditional forms; not the correct future perfect statement for this example.
