@dr.atifrana: I don't have objection if sentence allows you to use word disobeyed. It is very clear from the question that we can't change the form of verb obey (1st form). We are required to fill in the blank with words which best suite the verb obey and structure of the sentence.


We can't convert obey into obeyed. This will be our blunder if we do so.

b) Her father knew that she would not disobey him.

he should value my opinion.

You should not give him so much value.

Assalam-u-Alaikum to all,

Please go through the "The world of english language" and point only a single sentence in which full stop is used after inverted comma.
i havn't find even a single sentence in which full stop is used after inverted comma. And i found from a senior teacher that always use inverted comma at the end after the full stop or question mark. May be, i am wrong in this, so your valueable comments required...

Assalam-u-Alaikum

b) He said, "Bring me some tea." is true but its better to write it as
He said, "Shall I bring you some tea." (Note: don't use "?" at the end, if used than it will be a request/order not a offer)

f) I told that I would wait if I had been you.
No we cannot use "wished", as the person is not wishing, but telling or giving his opinion.

h) He said to me, "Do not leave his car unlocked as there were lot of stealing from cars."
Yes both "his' and "your" can be used here.

Now your valuable comment required brother...

Let me try, the solution is as:
i) Where was a very different atmosphere in the town this morning than there was yestermorning?
Here the comparison is between this morning and yesterday's morning. so it is wrong to campare a morning with yesterday but with yesterday's morning or yestermorning. And second thing it is a question so we use "?"

ii) Every one must decide for himself what to do about it.

iii) I shall not be surprised if he does not turn up tomorrow.
doesn’t cannot be used in css papers, we should use does not not doesn’t . (Reference: Exploring the world of english language page number 31)

iv) Neither Farooq nor Akbar is going to the wedding lunch on Saturday.

v) I compared his essay to Mushtaqs' and found these to be almost identical.
Here is the comparison of essays not comparing essay with a person named Mushtaq. we can also write it as Mushtaq's essay or Mushtaqs'
and secondly them cannot be used here but these or found both of these almost identical

@Chaudry



v) I compared his essay to Mushtaq’s and found them to be almost identical.

v.)I compared his essay with that of Mushtaq's and found it to be almost identical.

or I compared his essay to Mushtaq's and found it almost identical.


Correct me if i am wrong.

Devil-may-care

Brother look at the original sentence which is given in the question paper:

b) He offered to bring me some tea.

He is offering tea to me. He is not requesting me to serve him tea. So the chance of using "me" is out of question. If we use "me" then sense will be 100% opposite to that which the examiner has conveyed.

Now think over this: He said, "Bring me some tea." (Here using me is totally wrong). No body/no writer can consider it correct because what we understand from this: He is ordering/requesting me to bring him tea which is totally opposite to the original sentence in which he was asking about my desire/mood by offering/proposing me tea. If I show my willingness to take/have tea he himself will serve me tea.

I do not think it even near to reasonable solution by putting "me".


And for following sentence:

i) Where was a very different atmosphere in the town this morning than there was yestermorning?

I doubt about your comment that it is question. We should not confuse W brothers (Where in this case) with only question situation. W brothers and one H can be used in scenarios other than questions also.

Assalam-u-Alaikum
You cannot write only Mushtaq's, because there should be something after Mushtaq's. e.g., Mushtaq's essay. But when you put comma after Mushtaqs like Mushtaqs' , than no need to mention essay after Mushtaqs' because only Mushtaqs' is enough.
And them or it cannot be used here, it is used for a single thing but in this sentence we are comparing two essays than you can use these.
Now the sentence goes like this
I compared his essay to Mushtaqs' and found these to be almost identical.
OR
I compared his essay to Mushtaq's essay and found these to be almost identical.
OR
I compared his essay to Mushtaq's essay and found both of these almost identical.

Any comments...

Ok Brother i think He said, "Shall I bring you some tea." is right.

And in sentence
i) Where was a very different atmosphere in the town this morning than there was yestermorning?
In question paper Where is used than it is must to have a "?" at the end, if not than we can replace "where" with "there" and hence no need of "?" and sentence goes like this
i) There was a very different atmosphere in the town this morning than there was yestermorning.

can it not be like this.

He said,"do you like some tea"

See Dear Atif: If the solution which you have supplied is correct then there is possibility of one thing i.e. if I like tea he may order his peon/request his relatives etc. to serve me tea. But the question in the exam serves two purposes. 1) My desire to have tea 2) and if I desire to have tea then he himself will bring tea /serve me tea.


So your sentence talks of only one thing which is narrated in number one. I think this solution will be deficient.

We need to solve in a way in which both the purposes are covered.

@Raz

Your explanation seems to me insufficient to support your ideas.
I disagree with you.
