✍️ Sample ELPT Questions & Answers
1. After hours of discussion, the team finally managed to come _______ with an innovative solution to the problem.
The correct particle to complete the phrasal verb is 'up'. 'To come up with' means to suggest or think of an idea or plan. [10, 21, 25, 30, 47] The other particles do not form a phrasal verb with 'come' that fits the meaning of the sentence.
2. Which sentence is most appropriate for an academic report?
Academic reports require formal, precise language that avoids intensifiers and slang.
3. Identify the informal expression: 'The CEO was fired / dismissed / let go / terminated.'
'Let go' is an informal euphemism, while 'dismissed' and 'terminated' are formal and professional.
4. Which closing is appropriate for a formal letter of application?
'Yours sincerely' is the standard formal closing when the recipient's name is known.
5. A student told her friend, 'I only visit my relatives in the countryside once in a blue moon.' How often does the student visit her relatives?
The idiom 'once in a blue moon' refers to an event that happens very infrequently or rarely. [2, 15, 28]
6. The collection of rare books, which _______ donated to the library decades ago, _______ now a major attraction for scholars worldwide.
The first verb refers to 'The collection,' which is a singular noun, so 'was' is correct. The phrase 'which was donated...' is a non-essential clause describing the collection. The main subject of the sentence is still the singular 'collection,' which agrees with the singular verb 'is' in the second part of the sentence.
