SBI PO Clerk English Quiz 2 -https://presentaffairs.in/sbi-po-clerk-english-quiz-2/


Answer 1: Option 3, only a and b
Explaination (a) replace “had met” with “met” . Reason: “Had met” (past perfect tense) is used to indicate an action that happened before another past event. Since there is no subsequent action being referred to, the simple past tense (“met”) is more appropriate.
Example: Simple Past: “He met Jake Sullivan yesterday.” Past Perfect: “He had met Jake Sullivan before the meeting started.”
(b) the correct sentence would be “At the White House”. “In” is used when referring to being inside a building, room, or enclosed space. Eg:“He is in the White House.” (Physically inside the building.)

“At is used to describe being at a specific location or event, focusing on the general area rather than inside the space as meeting can either be inside the or outside building we don’t know. Its More formal.Example: “He is at the White House.” (Referring to the location as a point or landmark, not necessarily inside the building.)


Answer2. only a and b
Explaination (a): “at” → “on” , We use “on” when referring to a trip or visit.
(b): “was scheduled” → “is scheduled”. There’s a tense mismatch here. The first part of the sentence is in the present tense (“is currently”), but “was scheduled” is in the past tense.


Answer 3: Option 4, only a, b, c and d
Explaination (a) “Told” → “Stated”: The verb “told” is used when directly addressing someone (e.g., “He told me”).
(b) “Crashed” → “Crash”:”Crashed” is the past tense of the verb “crash,” but the sentence is referring to the incident, so it should be the noun “crash.”
(c) “Peoples” → “People”: “Peoples” is incorrect here. The correct plural form of “person” is “people”, not “peoples,” except when referring to different ethnic or cultural groups.
(d) replace “Were killed” with “Was killed”: The subject is “the suspect”, which is singular, so the verb should be “was”, not “were”.


Answer 4 : Option 5, No Error
Explaination here crowds refer to large groups of people. Since the sentence talks about multiple people gathering in the city so its correct.
(Singular):“A large crowd gathered at the concert. “Yahan ek hi bheed ki baat ho rahi hai.
(Plural): “There were crowds of people on the streets during the festival.” Yahan multiple bheedon ki baat ho rahi hai, jo alag-alag jagah par ho sakte hain.

people mean group of persons while Peoples mean group of people from various communities.


Answer 5 : Option e, only a and d
Explaination (a) Had found” → “Have found”: In this case, “have found” (present perfect) is more appropriate because the sentence is describing a recent discovery, which links the action to the present. read Sol given in answer1
(d) The term “ramming” is used to describe an incident where a vehicle crashes into something forcefully, and adding “up” is not grammatically correct in this context.


Answer 7: More than and Over
Explanation: Above is generally used to indicate a position higher than something, not to compare /describe duration or time.


Answer 8: “breathing,” “spectacular,” and “stunning”
Explanation: “Breathtaking” refers to something so impressive that it causes a strong reaction .“Spectacular” describes something visually grand and remarkable. “Stunning” means something incredibly beautiful or striking. These 3 options fit best in blan. “Mundane” Refers to something ordinary, lacking uniqueness or excitement


Answer 9: Triggering and Leading to
Explanation: “Triggering” is the appropriate verb here as it means causing or initiating something “dampening” means reducing or calming down the anger.“Leading to” means causing or resulting in something. It refers to a process or event that brings about a particular outcome or effect. “Riparian”: relates to the banks of a river or stream.


Answer 10: Bragging and Flexing
Explanation: Bragging and Flexing Means to boast or talk about one’s achievements, skills or possessions. Harmonizing means bringing different things into agreement or alignment to create harmony, balance, or coordination does fit here.
