Re: TOEFL Skill 1
As per your request I am here giving you sample question on SKILL 1 Subjects and Verbs topic for Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL). TOEFL SKILL 1 Subjects and Verbs Questions: SKILL 1: Subjects and Verbs Example I ______was ringing continuously for hours. (A) Loudly (B) In the morning (C) The phone (D) The bells Analysis: In this example, you should notice immediately that there is a verb, was ringing, but there is no subject. Answer (C) is the best answer because it is a singular subject that agrees with the singular verb was ringing. Answer (A), loudly, and answer (B), in the morning, are not subjects, so they are not correct. Although answer (D), bells, could be a subject, it is not correct because bells is plural and it does not agree with the singular verb was ringing. Example II Newspapers _______ every morning and every evening. (A) delivery (B) are delivered (C) on time (D) regularly Analysis: In this example, you should notice immediately that the sentence has a subject, newspapers, but that there is no verb. Because answer (B), are delivered, is a verb, it is the best answer. Answers (A), (C), and (D) are not verbs, so they are not correct. Example III The plane __________ landing at the airport in five minutes. (A) it is (B) it really is (C) is descending (D) will be Analysis: This sentence has a subject, plane, and has part of a verb, landing; to be correct, some form of the verb be is needed to make the verb complete. Answers (A) and (B) are incorrect because the sentence already has a subject, plane, and does not need the extra subject it. Answer (C) is incorrect because descending is an extra part of a verb that is unnecessary because of landing. Answer (D) is the best answer; will be together with landing is a complete verb. |
