Total Marks: 40
Section A: Multiple Choice Questions (10 × 1 mark = 10 marks)
| Qn | Answer | Explanation / Teaching Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | B | Context: "Students must ______ to understand the lesson." முயற்சி (effort/try) fits best. உதவி (help), ஆர்வம் (interest), நேர்மை (honesty) do not fit the grammatical structure "வேண்டும்" (must) for an action the student takes. |
| 2 | C | Context: "Clouds in the sky change ______." மாறி (changing) is the adverbial participle form describing how they move/change. ஓடி (ran), பாய்ந்து (flowed), விளையாடி (played) are incorrect actions for clouds. |
| 3 | A | Context: "Mother's cooking fragrance ______ the house." பரவியது (spread - past tense, intransitive) is correct. பரப்பியது is transitive (spread something). பரந்தது is less idiomatic for smell spreading. பரவலானது is an adjective (widespread). |
| 4 | A | Context: "Friend ______ me and left." ஏமாற்றி (deceived/cheated) fits the negative connotation of "விட்டார்" (left). Others are positive/neutral. |
| 5 | B | Grammar: Subject "மரங்கள்" (plural) requires plural verb. தள்ளாடுகின்றன (sway - present tense, plural) is correct. தள்ள adina (incorrect form), தள்ளாடி (participle), தள்ளாடுவதற்கு (infinitive phrase). |
| 6 | C | Grammar/Usage: "By reading books..." மூலம் (through/by means of) is the correct postposition for instrument/means. வாய்ப்பு (opportunity), வழி (way), காரணம் (reason) do not fit the structure "படித்து ______". |
| 7 | A | Grammar: "In the house, ______ sweet smell existed." Need adjective describing "வாசனை" (smell). பரவலான (widespread - adjective form) modifies noun. பரவலாக is adverb. பரந்த is verb participle. |
| 8 | A | Grammar: "Looked at mother ______." Need adverb modifying "பார்த்து கொண்டிருந்தான்". அன்புடன் (with love - instrumental case) functions as adverb. அன்பு (noun), அன்பாக (as love), அன்பான (adjective). |
| 9 | A | Grammar: "In school, we are taught ______." Object of passive verb "கற்பிக்கப்படுகிறோம்". ஒழுக்கம் (discipline - noun) is the thing taught. Others are adverb/adjective forms. |
| 10 | D | Grammar: "Rained and ______ ground became wet." பெய்து (having rained - adverbial participle) links the two actions sequentially. விட்டு (left), விட்டு போனதால் (because left), பெய்து விட்டு (completed action - less standard for natural sequence). |
Section B: Fill in the Blanks (5 × 2 marks = 10 marks)
| Qn | Answer | Explanation / Teaching Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 11 | உதவி | Context: "Friend explained the lesson I didn't know." உதவி செய்து (helped/assisted) collocates with explaining/teaching. Sentence: "நண்பர் எனக்குத் தெரியாத பாடத்தை உதவி செய்து விளக்கினார்." |
| 12 | அழகு | Context: "Flowers add ______ to the house." அழகு (beauty) is the abstract noun commonly associated with flowers decorating a place. |
| 13 | மகிழ்ச்சி | Context: "The ______ mother gave me, I liked." மகிழ்ச்சி (joy/happiness) is a gift/feeling given. Fits emotional context. |
| 14 | திறமை | Context: "Students must grow as those possessing ______." திறமை (ability/talent/capability) is a positive trait for students to possess. நேர்மை (honesty) is also a trait but திறமை fits "possessing" (உடையவர்களாக) in academic context better. |
| 15 | நேர்மை | Context: "Teacher praised our ______." நேர்மை (honesty/integrity) is a core value teachers praise. Sentence: "ஆசிரியர் எங்கள் நேர்மை ஐ பாராட்டினார்." |
Marking Note: 1 mark for correct word selection, 1 mark for correct spelling/contextual fit in the sentence.
