it must be pigs

Ans 2:

Class : Class 7
Correct Answer is C only, for the ones who are confused with the A option) its piglets not pigs

Ans 3:

Class : Class 8
Friends,it is cattle because drove is the collective noun of animals that move together.Cattle moves together,no?So,a DROVE OF CATTLE

Ans 4:

Class : Class 8
I am quite sure that this must be wrong due to logical fallacy. A group of cattle is referred to as a herd of cattle. Drove would not make sense in this context.

Ans 5:

Class : Class 7
What the heck is everyone doing?

Ans 6:

Class : Class 9
SORRY, I GAVE IT AS ELEPHANTS, NOT HORSES

Ans 7:

Class : Class 6
It should be pigs right?

Ans 8:

Class : Class 6
Drove or drift is a group of pigsA litter is a group of young pigsA group of hogs is known as a team or passelA sounder is a herd of swineA group of boars is known as a singular.As we can tell "Drove" is for Pigs.MTG has given it wrong.

Ans 9:

Class : Class 7

Ans 10:

Class : Class 7
YOUR ANSWER IS WRONG. A GROUP OF HORSES IS KNOWN AS A TEAM, NOT A DROVE

Explanation:future continuous tense does not have any passive.So, D is the correct answer.

Ans 3:

Class : Class 6

Ans 4:

Class : Class 6
The correct answer is D as the correct passive voice will be :A movie will be being watched by the children.I know it may sound incorrect but from what I searched the correct sentence is this.It may be incorrect as many sentences in the future continuous tense cannot be converted into passive voice

The answer should be 'colder' as the sentence " I remember the days when winter used to be cold" is like saying that winter isn't cold now, which does NOT make sense as winter is definitely cold now.Option 'A' would only make sense if you're an old person and global warming has gone out of hand

Read the poem carefully and answer the questions that follow :
When I’m An Old Lady

When I’m an old lady, I’ll live with each kid, And bring so much happiness just as they did. I want to pay back all the joy they’ve provided. Returning each deed. Oh, they’ll be so excited! I’ll write on the walls with reds, whites and blues, And bounce on the furniture wearing my shoes, I’ll drink from the carton and then leave it out. I’ll stuff all the toilets and oh, how they’ll shout. When they’re on the phone and just out of reach, I’ll get into things like sugar and bleach. Oh, they’ll snap their fingers and then shake their head, And when that is done, I’ll hide under the bed. When they cook dinner and call me to eat, I’ll not eat my green beans and salad or meat. I’ll gag on my okra, spill milk on the table, And when they get angry I’ll run if I’m able. I’ll sit close to the T.V., through the channels I’ll click I’ll cross both eyes just to see if they stick I’ll take off my socks and throw one away, And play in the mud till the end of the day. And later in bed, I’ll lay back and sigh, I’ll thank God in prayer and then close my eyes. My kids will look down with a smile slowly creeping. And say with a groan, “She’s so sweet when she’s sleeping!”
–Barbara Hall
Who is the narrator of the poem?

A A young girl
B An old lady
C The grandmother
D None of these


I wrote option d but they say its option c...but the Pom starts by aging when I’m an old lady...so its a mother who is thinking and thus she is the narrator

Ans 1:

Class : Class 8
It should be a young girl1)cause of the imagination and creativity2)because of the line”when I’m an old lady”

Ans 2:

Class : Class 8

Ans 3:

Class : Class 8
EXACTLYYY!!!!! I was gonna tell that too guys!! answer is b ...totalllyyy agree guyyzz.. @Anora, @Master

Ans 4:

Class : Class 9
it should be a young girl because of the creative imagination and because it is in the future tense,the person is not an old lady

Ans 5:

Class : Class 9
The answer must be D. She can't have been a young girl as not only would she not have kids but also in the first lines of the poems she says she will 'return the deeds'. She also says that she will live with her kids, hence indicating that whatever her kids did to her, she will do it to them WHEN she becomes an old lady. Again, all of this is in future tense so we cannot determine whether she is actually an old lady or if she is literally using future tense. The most apt option will be that we cannot determine her age and it is safe to say that she is a frustrated mother imagining all the things she would do when she becomes an old lady. HENCE OPTION D IS JUSTIFIED AND OPTION B IS NOT CORRECT

Ans 6:

Class : Class 9
Option a

Class : Class 1
The correct answer is B.

ima confused

Ans 9:

Class : Class 8

Ans 10:

Class : Class 9
confusing question

Ans 11:

Class : Class 8
The answer must be NONE OF THE ABOVE. The title of the poem "When I'm An Old Lady" clearly states that the narrator cannot be an old lady yet as she says 'when'. She cannot be an young girl because then she wouldn't be having kids.Therefore, she must be an mother with kids.So, the answer is NONE OF THE ABOVE

Ans 12:

Class : Class 8

Ans 13:

Class : Class 9
it should be a frustrated mother because a young girl does not say these thinks because she might be doing it herself

Ans 14:

Class : Class 8
No, the answer is D. This poem came in the ASSET exam and what they said the right answer was it was by a frustrated mother whom her kids kept annoying and that makes the most sense in context.

Ans 15:

Class : Class 9
it is a young girl because of the creative imagination and because the poem is in the future tense, the narrator cannot be an old lady

Ans 16:

Class : Class 8
If the narrator was a young girl,she wouldn’t have children.The title of the poem is,When I am an old lady.So,she can’t ™t eat an old lady/grandmother either.So,the answers none of the above(The narrator is probably a mother....)

Ans 17:

Class : Class 8
ya YOUNG GIRL

Ans 18:

Class : Class 8
The answer is young girl because the title says 'when I am an old lady' which means that the narrator is not yet an old lady and the poetry is in future tense.

Ans 19:

Class : Class 8
If the narrator was a young girl,she wouldn’t have children.The title of the poem is,’When I am an old lady’.So,she can’t eat an old lady/grandmother either.So,the answers none of the above(The narrator is probably a mother....)

Ans 20:

Class : Class 9
The name of the poem itself is “When I am an old lady”. So according to that and the first line, the answer is clearly young girl

Ans 21:

Class : Class 10
Guys The answer should be A a young girl because the title says that WHEN I AM AN OLD LADY so she is saying that she would do all this nuisance when she is a old lady and then of course it is obvious that right now she is a young girl and all this is just her imagination .But the answer key says that the answer is B an old lady So guys how can an old lady say that when i am an old lady when she IS an old lady?please clear my doubts friends
