Question : The following sentence has been divided into parts. One of them may contain an error. Select the part that contains the error from the given options. If you don't find any errors, mark 'No error' as your answer.
We will / have been know the result / of the CAT exam by next week.
Option 1: of the CAT exam by next week
Option 2: We will
Option 3: have been know the result
Option 4: No error
Correct Answer: have been know the result
Solution : The error lies in the third option.
Explanation: The error lies in the use of the phrase "have been know". The correct form should be "have known" when expressing future perfect tense. The structure is "will have known", indicating that the action of knowing the result will be completed in the future before a specified time (next week). The verb "know" should be in its past participle form "known" in this context.
Therefore, the correct sentence would be: We will have known the result of the CAT exam by next week.

Select the most appropriate option to fill in the blank no. 3.
Option 1: intact
Option 2: sound
Option 3: flawless

Correct Answer: sound
Solution : The correct choice is the second option.
The context suggests a disruption in the quietness of the place. The phrase sound of breaking refers to the noise associated with something breaking, making "sound" the most suitable option here.
The meanings of the other options are as follows:
- Intact means whole or undamaged.
- Flawless means perfect or without faults.
- Vibrant means full of energy or brightness.
Therefore, the correct answer is sound.
Question : Select the most appropriate ANTONYM of the word given in brackets to fill in the blank.
The (friendly) dog wagged its tail, while the _____ cat hissed.
Option 1: loving
Option 2: welcoming
Option 3: affectionate
Option 4: hostile
Correct Answer: hostile
Solution : The most appropriate antonym is the fourth option.
Friendly and hostile are antonyms. Friendly describes a warm, kind, and amiable nature, while hostile indicates an unfriendly, aggressive, or antagonistic nature. In the sentence, the dog is friendly, and the cat is portrayed as its opposite, which is hostile.
Loving, welcoming, and affectionate are synonyms or are similar in meaning to friendly and would not convey the intended contrast in the sentence.
Therefore, the complete sentence should be: "The friendly dog wagged its tail, while the hostile cat hissed."

Solution : The second option is the correct answer.
In the context of the sentence, letting the cat out of the bag means accidentally disclosing or revealing a secret, specifically about the person's promotion.
The idiom implies that information was divulged that was meant to be kept confidential or hidden.
Therefore, the correct answer is to reveal a secret.
