Ans 6:

Class : Class 5
It should be 'are' if it was talking about ' a lot of bees ' but since it is talking about only ONE swarm, it's become singular thus, the answer is 'is'

Ans 7:

Class : Class 8

Ans 8:

Class : Class 5
The answer is IS because it is conted as singular and we use is with the singular nouns and hence the answer is IS like a pack of wolves is eating some of the rabbits. in the midnight hece we should not be confused between singular and plural mouns

Surely, the answer is "is"

Ans 26:

Class : Class 5
Silly mistake for me but it’s is since bees is plural, yes, but a SWARM of bees is singular as it’s a collective noun. So the answer’s ISP.S. I used caps for explaining pls don’t report me or anything

Ans 27:

Ans 5:

Class : Class 7
dtonight changes to that night

Ans 6: (Master Answer)

Class : Class 1
The correct answer is C.

Ans 7:

Class : Class 9
the answer should be none of these

Ans 8:

Class : Class 8
The correct answer for the above questions should be Option D. This is because while converting a sentence from direct speech to indirect speech, the tense of the sentence changes when the reporting verb is in the past tense. Here, as the reporting verb is "said", the tense will change. Therefore, the sentence will be reported as "Manohar said that he would come home late that night." This is not given in any of the options. Thus, the answer will be Option D:None of these.

Ans 9:

Class : Class 4
answer should be d. tonight changes to that night

Class : Class 9
The correct answer is D.Please correct this immediately SOF

Ans 11:

Class : Class 7

How is it not "focus" - no. D? "Highlight of the evening" usually means "focus of the evening". This answer does not sound right.
