Mind-blown! Your quiz is incredibly comprehensive and insightful! I've never seen such detailed breakdowns of English concepts. I manage to squeeze out 39/50 🙏😍💯❤️
Brave! Very different from others, the uniqueness of this English grammar test speaks aloud. Thanks to RUclips and the teacher here. I score only 16.🎉❤
Question: #26: According to the OED, all three choices are specifically cited as examples of correlative conjunctions. #27: I believe you meant to place the hyphen between science and fiction. #30 : The semicolon (answer C) is used to separate two clauses that can each stand independently as a complete sentence. #32: See my comments in a separate transmission of a few minutes ago. #35: There are no circumstances under which "must to" would be grammatically correct. "I must carefully review the document." would, of course be correct.
Question; #38: Answer C also. And delete the preposition "to." #42: Answer B would have a somewhat negative implication. Answer C would have a less negative implication, implying that the party wasn't a complete flop. #45: Did you mean to repeat "reading"? #46: Not sure I see an example of a dangling modifier. #48: Two correct choices. "I love listening to music." Or "I love to listen to music." #50: The sentence is phrased in a manner that would allow for two correct answers, without violating any tense consistency. Either answer A or B would be correct.
Correlative Conjunctions #26: I love ---- reading books ----- watching movies._ The correct answer is C, both, and. _Why "both, and" is the correct answer:_ 1. Correlative conjunctions connect words or phrases of equal importance. 2. "Both, and" emphasizes two equal and positive statements. 3. The sentence expresses love for two activities. _Why the other options are incorrect:_ A. "Either, or" presents alternatives, not equal positive statements. B. "Neither, nor" negates both options, opposite of the intended meaning. _Example explanations:_ - I love both reading books and watching movies. (Equal positive statements) - Do you prefer reading or watching movies? (Alternative choices) - I like neither reading nor watching movies. (Negative statements) _Em Dash #27: I love reading ----- science fiction._ The correct answer is A, - (em dash). _Why "-" (em dash) is the correct answer:_ 1. Em dashes set off parenthetical phrases or clarify relationships. 2. The em dash indicates a break in thought, connecting "reading" to "science fiction." 3. The sentence implies a specific type of reading material. _Why the other options are incorrect:_ B. `;` (comma) would make "science fiction" non-essential information. C. `;;` (semicolon) would separate independent clauses, not applicable here. _Example explanations:_ - I love reading-science fiction. (Em dash connects related ideas) - I love reading, especially science fiction. (Comma makes "especially" non-essential) - I love reading; science fiction is my favorite. (Semicolon separates independent clauses) Kindly reply back. Thanks
Thank you for your thoughtful reply. First, I'll admit I mistook your EM dash for a hyphen -- my mistake. However, I would maintain that the sentence would read correctly without the dash, as one continuous thought, just as one would say "I love playing soccer" as one continuous thought. To me, an example of when the EM dash should be used to indicate a break in speech would be "I rather enjoy sports that one can play by oneself -- bowling." Or, "He was hours late for his scheduled meeting and made no effort to notify the other attendees -- inexcusable!" As to your reply concerning the coordinating conjunction question. My thought was that if it is possible and grammatically proper to LIKE both reading books and watching movies, then would it not also be grammatically correct to state one's DISLIKE (neither,nor) of both books and movies? I'm also unsure about as to how one should interpret the phrase "of equal importance" in characterizing the two activities. The OED mentions this requirement as well. But I imagine it could be quite possible to enjoy both skydiving and jogging, but with widely unequal levels of enjoyment and importance. Would the unequal level of importance disqualify these two activities from being used in a coordinating conjunction? How does one quantify levels of enjoyment or importance? Beats me. Regardless, I truly appreciate your reply, and freely admit that there may be some remaining differences or misunderstandings on my part.

Question: #2: According to OED, we use "which" for clauses that provide EXTRA information that is NOT essential to the meaning of the sentence. And the clause is punctuated with commas, to indicate the phrase is NON ESSENTIAL For example, "The moon, which has always fascinated me, will be especially bright tonight." Since there is only one moon, the phrase "which has always fascinated me" is non-essential. Next, we would use "that" to provide ADDITIONAL information necessary to properly identify which specific object we are talking about. For example: "The song that you sang last night is my favorite." Here, since there are many songs, the phrase "that you sang last night" is necessary to specify which song you you mean. So, as regards the test question, if there is only one possible book we could be talking about, then we would use "which," and punctuate the phrase with commas: "The book, which I read, is interesting." And if we need to specify the precise book we're talking about, then we would say "The book that I read is interesting."
You've raised an excellent point regarding #2 here are some possible details on #2 Relative clauses are used to describe a noun or provide additional information about it. In this sentence, the relative clause describes the book. "which" is the correct answer Which is used for non-human nouns (like books). The sentence is describing a specific book, making which the suitable choice. Which introduces a non-restrictive clause, providing additional information. Do well to reply if you are cleared. Thanks
Again, thank you for your prompt and thoughtful reply. As regards the terminology, I think we can agree that a restrictive or relative clause is defined as providing information ESSENTIAL to the correct understanding of the sentence. So, if there was more than one book the speaker could likely be referring to, and we wished to provide the necessary qualifier to specify the precise book we were talking about, then we would state "that I read," not "which I read." This, per the OED. And the definition of a non-restrictive or non-relative clause is one that provides extra, or optional information, not essential for the proper understanding of the sentence. And in these cases, we would use "which," and enclose that clause within commas. So, in the test sentence, for answer A to be correct, the writer and the reader would both need to have the mutual understanding that only one specific book was being referenced, and the phrase "which I read" would need to be enclosed within commas.

Phrasal Verb #3: I ----- my keys.* The correct answer is B, lost. *Why "lost" is the correct answer:* 1. The sentence requires a verb in the simple past tense. 2. "Lost" is the correct form of the verb "lose" in the simple past tense. 3. The sentence implies a completed action (keys are already lost). *Why the other options are incorrect:* A. "Lose" is the base form of the verb, not suitable for the simple past tense. C. "Have lost" is the present perfect tense, implying an action started in the past and continues to the present. *Example explanations:* - I lost my keys yesterday. (Simple past) - I have lost my keys. (Present perfect, emphasizing the current situation) Or would you like more quizzes or a specific topic? Reply 🤔
Lost (simple past) * Correct if you want to describe a completed action in the past. * Example: "I lost my key yesterday." (implies the loss happened at a specific point in the past)
Question: #3: None of the answers would be correct. A phrasal verb is defined as "A phrase that consists of a verb with a preposition or adverb or both, whose meaning is different from its separate parts." For example: "pay for," "work out." #7: Answer A to express a possibility. Answer B to express an obligation Answer C to express a suggestion or recommendation. #12: Since the question title is "emphasis," wouldn't answer A imply greater emphasis than answer B? #17: Answer B also? #21: Answer C also. #23: In American English, in virtually every case answer B would be used.

"Must" expresses strong obligation, necessity, or recommendation. 2. The sentence implies a strong suggestion or insistence. 3. "Must" is often used for advice or commands. *Why the other options are incorrect:* A. "Can" expresses ability or possibility, not strong obligation. C.

Question:
#26: According to the OED, all three choices are specifically cited
as examples of correlative conjunctions.
#27: I believe you meant to place the hyphen between science and
fiction.
#30 : The semicolon (answer C) is used to separate two clauses that
can each stand independently as a complete sentence.
#32: See my comments in a separate transmission of a few minutes
ago.
#35: There are no circumstances under which "must to" would be
grammatically correct. "I must carefully review the document."
would, of course be correct.
Question;
#38: Answer C also. And delete the preposition "to."
#42: Answer B would have a somewhat negative implication.
Answer C would have a less negative implication, implying
that the party wasn't a complete flop.

#46: Not sure I see an example of a dangling modifier.
#48: Two correct choices. "I love listening to music." Or
"I love to listen to music."
#50: The sentence is phrased in a manner that would allow for two
correct answers, without violating any tense consistency.
Either answer A or B would be correct.
Correlative Conjunctions #26: I love ---- reading books ----- watching movies._
The correct answer is C, both, and.

2. The em dash indicates a break in thought, connecting "reading" to "science fiction."
3. The sentence implies a specific type of reading material.
_Why the other options are incorrect:_
B. `;` (comma) would make "science fiction" non-essential information.
C. `;;` (semicolon) would separate independent clauses, not applicable here.

- I love reading-science fiction. (Em dash connects related ideas)
- I love reading, especially science fiction. (Comma makes "especially" non-essential)
