Total Marks: 40
Level: Primary 6 PSLE
Paper: SA2 Grammar Practice (Version 2 of 5)

Section A: MCQ (1 mark each)

C – "had come". Third conditional: If + past perfect, would have + past participle. Past condition for past result.
A – "was". Collective noun "committee" treated as singular here (one divided body).
C – "was going". Reported speech: present continuous → past continuous; "tomorrow" → "the next day".
B – "being". Despite is preposition; follows with gerund (-ing).
B – "to close". Verb "ask" patterns: ask + object + to-infinitive.
B – "are". Subject "students" plural; "together with teacher" is extra info.
A – "If". Conditional type 3: If + past perfect, would have.
B – "was baked". Past passive: was/were + past participle.
C – "loudly". Adverb modifies verb "spoke".
C – "She has written a letter." Present perfect = has/have + past participle.

Section B: Fill-in (1 mark each)

has – "Each" singular; present tense "has".
loudly – Adverb needed to modify "barked".
rained – Type 2 conditional: If + past simple, would + base.
belonging – Present participle modifies "books" (no finite verb).
at – Fixed preposition: "good at".

Section C: Transformation/Correction (2 marks each)

Although the rain was heavy, the match continued.
[1] "Although" introduces contrast clause. [1] Original meaning kept, comma used.
The children said that they would visit the zoo.
[1] "said that" + backshift will→would. [1] pronoun we→they, no "the next day" needed as zoo context unchanged.
My sister and I went to the market.
[1] Subject pronoun "I" not object "me". [1] "and I" correct as compound subject.
He missed the bus because he was late. (or reverse)
[1] "because" shows reason. [1] Two clauses joined with meaning kept.
The meal was cooked quickly by the chef.
[1] Object becomes subject; was + past participle. [1] "by the chef" agent, "quickly" kept.

Marking Notes: Deduct 1 mark for tense/voice error; 1 mark for meaning change. Common mistake: using "me" as subject (Q18), or wrong gerund after preposition (Q4, Q12).
