Option C also seems correct as "sway" means "control" only when it is used in the expression "held sway".
Class : Class 8
In my opinion, option a may be correct in some contexts but when such an appropriate option as option c is there, it should be option c as it is more correct. Olympiad questions are confusing in such a way where they may have two or even more correct answers but in this exercise it is my opinion that in options a and c, c is more appropriate.

In my opinion, it is both option (A).Sway (as a verb) is similar to the verb 'control', or 'influence'. It is used in a sentence as such: Mcdonald is very easily swayed by other people's opinions, he's never made so much as a decision by himself in his life. Sway (as a noun) is not similar to the word deviation. Sway means to swing or oscillate, which, generally, means 'to move around a fixed point in a regular manner'. For example: The child swayed slightly on his feet as he waited for his name to be called. Deviation, on the other hand, (as a noun) means 'to stray from a recommended/accepted path'. For example: Harry's deviation from the standard methods (written in the book 'Advanced Potion-Making', by Libatius Borage) earned him many compliments from Slughorn.Thus, the answer is option (A) in my opinion.

We are assuming Ram is a boy. Can't do that as the English language is global and some cultures may name a girl as Ram. Bad question.

There is no error in "work everyday", it should be D). If anyone thinks that "everyday" and "every day" are different, in this context, they are not. Please fix this.

It doesn't make sense, as it is quoted children under 3 years are most severely affected.
Ans 2:
Class : Class 8
I think that the answer has to be D because it is written clearly that "The crisis affects children under the age of three most severely
Ans 3:
Class : Class 8
In my opinion, the answer should be Option (D) instead of Option (C), as, according to the final paragraph of the passage, it is written as "The crisis affects children under the age of three years most severely, the report says.". As it is clearly, mentioned, children under the age of 'three' years suffer most severely.
Ans 4:
Class : Class 9
The answer is below one year as it is said in the passage that
“These findings described as the quiet crisis requires immediate and far reaching action. One fourth of the nation’s 12 million infants and toddlers live in poverty”
As infants are below 1 year..that must be the answer
Ans 5:
Class : Class 8
I think the answer should be option D- below 3 years. To quote the passage, "The crisis affects children under the age of three most severely, the report says."
Ans 9:
Class : Class 8
Shouldn't the answer be 'd' as they mention it "affects the children below the age of three most severely"

The correct answer is option c. It is completely correct to say “there is A need” but wrong to say that “there is a need to REVISING the school timings.”,it should be to REVISE the school timings...thus the answer is option c.
Hope you found it helpful!

I think it should be option c as bridge means 'to join' and antonym for this has to be 'divide'.
Ans 12:
Class : Class 7
divide must be the correct answer because word divide means to separate and bridge means structure carrying road over river etc.
Ans 15:
Class : Class 5
The answer is c as divide makes more sense here. If it was not present, then it would have been open.
Ans 17:
Class : Class 8
Bind can not be, as bride means 'to join' . But open is the answer,as the antonym of join is open
Ans 19:
Class : Class 6
the meaning of bridge is bind so, antonym poen is more appropriate . So whoever is saying its wrong, please acknowledge these are right answers by sof

"Divide" - option C does sound more appropriate to me! Hope, SOF sends a correction.
Ans 23:
Class : Class 5
Divide is more appropriate option. SOF's answer key is probably showing the wrong answer.
Ans 25:
Class : Class 6
Divide ought to be the correct answer as it means to separate. If it was not in the options, then open could have been considered. Bridge means to connect for which divide is its antonym.
Ans 30:
Class : Class 6
Open can be the antonym of bridge but divide makes more sense. If divide was not there in the options, then it could have been open
