Answers
Primary 4 English Quiz - Grammar (Answer Key)
Total Marks: 20
Section A: Grammar Multiple Choice (8 marks)
1. Answer: (2) are
Explanation: The subject "pupils" is plural, so the verb must be plural ("are"). The sentence refers to a future event ("tomorrow"), but "are" is used here to describe a current state of excitement about that future event.
Mark: 1
2. Answer: (1) know
Explanation: With "neither...nor", the verb agrees with the noun closest to it ("brothers", which is plural). Therefore, the plural verb "know" is correct.
Mark: 1
3. Answer: (2) your
Explanation: The speaker is Mother talking to "me" (the child). Mother is reminding the child to bring the child's own water bottle, so the possessive pronoun "your" is correct.
Mark: 1
4. Answer: (3) was
Explanation: "The team" is a collective noun treated as singular here (acting as one unit), and the sentence is in the past tense ("started"). The singular past tense verb "was" is correct.
Mark: 1
5. Answer: (4) were
Explanation: The subject "My sister and I" is a compound subject joined by "and", making it plural (equivalent to "we"). The past continuous tense "were baking" matches the past tense context ("rang").
Mark: 1
6. Answer: (3) was
Explanation: "Each of the girls" takes a singular verb because "each" refers to individuals one at a time. The past tense "was" matches "last Saturday".
Mark: 1
7. Answer: (2) Would
Explanation: "Would you like to..." is the standard polite way to make an invitation or offer. "Will" is for future facts, "Can" asks about ability, and "Could" is also polite but "Would you like" is the fixed phrase for invitations.
Mark: 1
8. Answer: (3) whose
Explanation: "Whose" is the possessive relative pronoun used for things (the book) to show that the cover belongs to the book. "Which" cannot show possession, and "who/whom" are for people.
Mark: 1
Section B: Grammar Cloze (6 marks)
9. Answer: had
Explanation: The subject "my family" is singular (collective noun treated as a unit). The past tense "had" matches "Last weekend".
Mark: 1
10. Answer: was
Explanation: The subject "The weather" is singular. Past tense "was" matches the past context.
Mark: 1
11. Answer: were
Explanation: The subject "My parents" is plural (two people). Past tense "were" is correct.
Mark: 1
12. Answer: had
Explanation: This is the past perfect tense ("had built") showing an action completed before another past action/time. The auxiliary "had" is needed before the past participle "built".
Mark: 1
13. Answer: had
Explanation: Past perfect tense ("had taken") for an action completed before the time of leaving. The auxiliary "had" goes with the past participle "taken".
Mark: 1
12. Answer: was
Explanation: The subject "the sun" is singular. Past continuous "was setting" describes an ongoing action at that past time.
Mark: 1
Section C: Sentence Synthesis & Transformation (3 marks)
15. Answer: The new dress which my mother bought was worn to the wedding.
OR The new dress which my mother bought she wore to the wedding.
Explanation: Combine the two sentences using the relative pronoun "which" to refer to "the new dress". The first sentence becomes the relative clause ("which my mother bought"), and the second sentence provides the main clause. Passive voice ("was worn") or active voice with pronoun ("she wore") are both acceptable.
Mark: 1
16. Answer: Mr Tan told the pupils to switch off the lights when they left the room.
Explanation: Convert direct speech to reported speech (indirect command). "Please switch off" becomes "to switch off" (to-infinitive after "told"). "You" changes to "they" (third person), and "leave" changes to "left" (backshift past tense).
Mark: 1
17. Answer: Although Siti did not finish her homework, she went to bed early.
Explanation: "Although" introduces a contrast clause. The two sentences are combined into one complex sentence with "Although" at the beginning, followed by the first clause, a comma, and the second clause. No "but" is needed in the main clause.
Mark: 1
Section D: Editing for Grammar (3 marks)
18. Answer: play
Explanation: The subject "children" is plural. The present tense plural verb is "play" (no -s). The -s ending is only for singular third-person subjects (he/she/it).
Common mistake: Adding -s to plural subjects.
Mark: 1
19. Answer: gave
Explanation: The sentence is in the past tense ("last year"). The past tense of "give" is "gave" (irregular verb). "Give" is the base form, used for present tense (plural) or infinitives.
Common mistake: Using base form instead of past tense for irregular verbs.
Mark: 1
20. Answer: is
Explanation: The true subject is "The box" (singular), not "chocolates". "Of chocolates" is a prepositional phrase modifying "box". Singular subject takes singular verb "is".
Common mistake: Making the verb agree with the noun in the prepositional phrase ("chocolates") instead of the actual subject ("box").
