The correct answer is "repaid". 

Key Points

• The given statement is about an action that was performed in relation to the loan taken from a friend.
• In this context, the most suitable or appropriate action would be repayment of the loan.
• Repayment indicates that the person returned the money he had borrowed.
• The other options such as "revealed" and "requested" don't fit the context because revealing a loan isn't a correct phrase in English -- you can reveal a secret but a loan is usually something agreed upon by two parties.
• Requesting a loan would mean that he is asking for another loan, which is not what the statement is trying to convey.
• Likewise, "reserving" a loan is also incorrect as it doesn't make any sense in the English language.
• Therefore, among the given options, the most appropriate word to fill in the blank is: repaid.
• The filled sentence reads: "He repaid the loan he had taken from his friend within a month."
• This sentence meaningfully states that he returned the money he had borrowed from his friend within the given period.

Therefore, the correct answer is "Option 1".

The correct answer is "No substitution."

Key Points

• The original sentence is already grammatically correct and effective in conveying its message.
• There doesn't seem to be any error in the sentence: "To stay healthy, you must keep away from smoking."
• It is grammatically correct and conveys a clear message.

The correct answer is option 1.
 

Additional Information

• "You can keep away from smoking" (option 2) implies that the listener has the ability to refrain from smoking, but does not necessarily state that it is necessary for their health.
• "You will keep away from smoking" (option 3) suggests a command or guarantee, which may not be appropriate for the context.
• "You may keep away from smoking" (option 4) implies that avoiding smoking is optional, which is not the intended message of the sentence.

The correct answer is 'Do you have any informations regarding the date'.

Key Points

• The given sentence is grammatically incorrect.
• Here, 'information' should be used instead of 'informations'.
• The noun 'information' is always used in a singular form. 
• We cannot make it plural by adding 's/es' after it.
  • Example: For further information please send our fact sheet.
     

​Correct Sentence: Do you have any information regarding the date, time, and location of the upcoming examination, as well as any specific instructions or materials we need to prepare for it?

Green banking promotes environmental sustainability through various initiatives, such as financing renewable energy projects, encouraging paperless transactions, and providing eco-friendly loans for businesses and individuals involved in sustainable practices.

It also attracts environmentally conscious customers and opens new business opportunities. Regulatory bodies are increasingly encouraging banks to integrate sustainability into their core operations, making green banking a vital component of a responsible financial system.

Key Points

• The correct spelling of the word is 'disciplinary'.
• The error is the missing of 's' before 'c'.
• 'Disciplinary' refers to something related to discipline or punishment. (अनुशासनात्मक)
  • Example: The company has established disciplinary measures to ensure a productive and respectful work environment.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 4.
Additional Information

• Interrogation refers to the act of questioning someone, often in a formal setting. (पूछताछ)
• Magistrate refers to a civil officer who administers the law, often in a lower court. (न्यायाधीश)
• Preliminary refers to something done or occurring before the main action or event. (प्रारंभिक)

The correct answer is option 2), i.e. oblige.

Key Points

• The passage is all about political interference in the administrative system and its effects.
• Let’s find out the usage of the words given in the options-
• Disappoint: fail to fulfil hopes or expectation
• Oblige: do as someone asks or desires to please them.
• Oppose: disagree or actively resist someone or something.
• Fascinate: attract the strong attention or interest of someone. 
• “Many civil servants are only too anxious to ______ the politicians, and then cash the obligation when they need some special needs”. Here ‘anxious’ means very eager or concerned to do something. Clearly 'disappoint' and 'oppose' cannot fit here with word 'anxious'.
• “..then cash the obligation when they need some special needs.” Word ‘obligation’ gives a hint that words similar to obligation will be more apt.
• Therefore, 'oblige' will be the correct option.

The correct answer is 'as long as.'

Key Points  

• Let us see the meanings of given conjunctions:
  • So that: We use "so that" and in order that to talk about purpose.
    • We often use them with modal verbs (can, would, will, etc.).
    • Example: I’ll go by car so that I can take more luggage.
  • ​As long as: We use "as long as" to refer to the intended duration of a plan or idea, most commonly referring to the future.
    • We always use the present simple to refer to the future after "as long as."
    • Example: We are very happy for you to stay at our house as long as you like. 
  • Though: It means ‘in spite of something.’ 
    • It is a subordinating conjunction.
    • This means that the clause which they introduce is a subordinate clause, which needs a main clause to make it complete.
    • When the though clause comes after the main clause, it can also mean ‘but it is also true that …’
      • Example: We didn’t make any profit though nobody knows why.
  • ​​As if: We use "as if" to talk about an imaginary situation or a situation that may not be true but that is likely or possible.
    • Example: It looks as if they've had a shock.
• ​The given sentence refers to the presence of tobacco being permanent provided that the tobacco industry thrives
• Therefore, the correct answer is Option 2.​
   

Correct sentence: Smoking will never be given up, as long as the tobacco industry thrives. 

The correct answer is Vocifirous.

• The word 'Vociferous' means 'expressing your opinions or feelings in a loud and confident way (अपनी भावनाओं या विचारों को ज़ोरदार और गंभीर ढंग से व्‍यक्त करते हुए)'.
   

​Hence, the most appropriate answer is 'Vocifirous'.

Additional Information

• Let's understand the meaning of other options.
  • Affliction- a cause of persistent pain or distress (दुख, वेदना, मनस्‍ताप).
  • Episcopal- of a bishop or bishops (बिशप का).
  • Innocuous- not meant to cause harm or upset somebody (अहानिकर, सीधा-सादा).

The correct answer is option 1) i.e., 'turned up'.

Key Points

• Hence, turned up which means (of a person) to arrive is the correct phrasal verb for the given blank. (उप्स्थित वस्तु)
• So, option 1 is the correct answer. 

Additional Information

The correct answer is due to rising affluence and advances to​​.

Key Points​

• There are some verbs/nouns/adjectives which are followed by fixed prepositions as given below:
  • ​Exonerate from, refrain from, lead to, advancement in, aptitude for, inured to, accused of, a predilection for, differ from, vexed at, etc.
• Example:
  • Nowadays, merger and acquisition transactions occur at a faster pace, due in part to advancements in communications.​​
• ​Hence, according to the phrases given above, 'advancement in' will be the correct choice in the part given in the 3rd option.
• Also, rule of parallelism should be followed here. 'affluence' is a noun, and 'and' is a conjunction. The words should be same in form and function. 'advance' is a verb while 'advancement' is a noun, so 'advancement' should be used here.
• The given phrase 'advancement in' means an improvement relating to a particular activity or area of knowledge.
   

Correct Sentence: Population growth is leveling off in most areas due to rising affluence and advancement in women’s education and family planning. 

The correct answer is 'we will have' i.e. this part of the sentence has an error.

Key Points

• In the given sentence, the use of the simple future tense ''will have'' is incorrect.
• The given sentence is the third conditional sentence explaining that present circumstances would be different if something different had happened in the past.
• The third conditional sentence format: past perfect, modal auxiliary (would, could, should, etc.)​ + have + past participle.
• When using the third conditional, we use the past perfect (i.e., had + past participle) in the if-clause and the modal auxiliary (would, could, should, etc.) + have + past participle in the main clause.
• Therefore, the past form of the verb 'would' should be used in place of the simple future form of the verb 'will'.
   

Hence, the correct answer is option 4.

Correct sentence: Had you not reached in time, we would have lost our lives.

Hinglish

• दिए गए वाक्य में simple future tense ''will have'' का प्रयोग गलत है।
• दिया गया वाक्य third conditional sentence है जो यह बताता है कि यदि अतीत में कुछ अलग हुआ होता तो वर्तमान परिस्थितियाँ भिन्न होतीं।
• Third conditional sentence प्रारूप: past perfect, modal auxiliary (would, could, should, etc.)​ + have + past participle.
• Third conditional का उपयोग करते समय, हम if-क्लॉज में past perfect (i.e., had + past participle) का उपयोग करते हैं और modal auxiliary (would, could, should, etc.) + have + past participle, main clause में।
• अतः verb 'will' के simple future form के स्थान पर past form of the verb 'would' का प्रयोग किया जाना चाहिए।
   

अतः सही उत्तर option 4 है।

सही वाक्य: Had you not reached in time, we would have lost our lives.

The correct answer is 'very sweet'

Key Points

• ​Here 'sweet' is an adjective which qualifies a subject (Noun/ Pronoun)
• However, an 'adverb' is required to modify a Verb
  • Example- Phillip sings loudly in the shower. 
• Thus, 'sweet' will be replaced by 'sweetly'.
   

Correct Sentence- Rahul sings very sweetly when he is in a good mood.

The correct answer is option 1, i.e., needs to be.

•  The sentence uses the incorrect plural verb 'need to be'.
•  Furniture- the movable articles that are used to make a room or building suitable for living or working in, such as tables, chairs, or desks.
•  Furniture is an uncountable noun. i.e., it refers to an abstract idea of something rather than a specific object.
•  So, when using plural for furniture, we say pieces of furniture and not furnitures.
•  Rule: Uncountable nouns are always used with a singular verb. e.g. water, knowledge etc.
•  So, the correct verb here must be the singular 'needs to be'.

Thus, the rectified sentence is: All the furniture needs to be shifted outside.

The correct answer is - wants to become.

Key Points

• The simple present tense is used when an action is happening right now, to state or ask about things in general, or when it happens regularly or unceasingly.
• The structure is given below:
  • Subject + V1 + object.
• The verb will take 's/es' if the given noun/pronoun (3rd person) is singular.
• Example:
  • ​He plays badminton daily.​
• Certain verbs used only in the simple present tense are given below:
  • ​verbs of perception (see, hear, smell, etc.), think, know, has/have, possess, like, want, desire, hate, seem, imagine, etc.
• Example:
  • ​My brother is owning a car. (incorrect)
  • ​My brother owns a car. (correct)
• As per the rules given above, the 2nd option i.e. wants to become is the correct choice.
   

Correct Sentence: Sidharth wants to become a football player but needs to practice more rigorously.
