Guyz!
If your one sentence in pair of words is correct, surely, you will be awarded one mark. This is confirmed! This is why, this part has 10 marks-- One for each and two for a pair. |

6. My uncle told me something about it yesterday. ( When past time is mentioned in any sentence, past indefinite is used instead of past perfect. There was no need to change yesterday to previous day as we were not asked to make narration.) 7. I never heard that gotten is third form of get. Forget has its third for as forgotten, but ... )

Unlikely is not followed by "of" in this sentence. The correct one is: It is unlikely that he will win the race. You're right about 6th sentence and your logic is also spot on! By the way, "gotten" is third form of "got" in the US English. But it doesn't fit here! |

One more correction:
Guyz, When you start sentence with "not only", then make sure it is followed by the helping verb. Wrong--> Not only he was a thief, but he was also a murderer. Correct--> Not only was he a thief, but he was also a murderer (or-- but also a murderer) The same rule is applied for words "neither" and "nor".

He was not only a thief but also a murderer. For my academic curiosity, please enlighten me as to how my approach is not according to the set rules of English grammarians? I am looking for an exact book from where this sentence was taken; I remember I came across correction of such sentence before exams! And I'm confident that I did it right. |

Dear Fortune,
Read Grammatical Conjunctions on This link Grammatical conjunction - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia I copy an example from above link: Not only is he handsome but he is also brilliant. Now compare it with my correction: Not only was he a thief, but he was also a murderer |
