✍️ Sample OOPT Questions & Answers

1. Which sentence contains a relative clause?

✓ The book that I borrowed was interesting.

'That I borrowed' is a defining relative clause modifying 'the book'.

2. The film, _______ I had already seen twice, won three awards.

✓ which

The commas indicate a non-defining clause. 'That' cannot be used in non-defining relative clauses. 'Who' and 'whose' refer to people, not films. 'Which' correctly refers to a thing (the film) in a non-defining clause.

3. A passage includes: 'Sales figures for Q3 were negligible compared to the previous year.' What does 'negligible' most likely mean?

✓ Too small to be significant.

'Negligible' describes something so small it can effectively be ignored or dismissed.

4. You ______ touch that wire; it's extremely dangerous.

✓ mustn't

'Mustn't' (must not) is used to express strong prohibition – something that is forbidden because it is dangerous or against the rules. 'Should' would be advice, 'might not' expresses a weak possibility, and 'don't have to' indicates a lack of obligation, which is too weak for this dangerous situation.

5. You read: 'The study was conducted over a period of two decades, lending it considerable credibility.' What does 'lending it considerable credibility' mean?

✓ The long duration made the study more trustworthy.

'Lending credibility' means adding trustworthiness; the study's length makes its findings more believable.

6. Despite the initial challenges, he was determined to ______ with his plan to start a new company.

✓ go ahead

The phrasal verb 'go ahead with' means to proceed with a plan or action, especially after getting permission or despite difficulties. 'Go through' means to experience, 'go against' means to oppose, and 'go for' means to choose.
