English

Option A, "Doing this is impossible," correctly and clearly restates the original sentence "It is impossible to do this." Option C is grammatically incorrect and awkward, making A the best choice.

Both 'Humble' and 'Meek' are antonyms of 'Arrogant' as they describe modesty and lack of pride, which contrast with arrogance. Therefore, option D, 'Both A and B,' correctly identifies the antonyms.

A pronoun is a word used instead of a noun to avoid repetition and simplify sentences. Prepositions and verbs serve different grammatical functions, so the correct answer is 'Pronoun'.

The word 'defer' means to postpone or delay something to a later time. Among the options, 'Postpone' correctly captures this meaning.

The word 'suffering' means experiencing pain or distress. Its antonym is 'pleasure,' which means a feeling of happiness or enjoyment, making option C correct.

The word 'solace' means comfort or consolation in a time of distress or sadness, making 'Comfort' the correct synonym. The other options represent negative feelings, which are antonyms rather than synonyms.

Both "Peaceful" and "Calm / Calmness" are synonyms of "Tranquil," so option D, which includes both, is the correct answer.

The word 'Loyal' means showing firm and constant support or allegiance, which is best matched by the synonym 'Faithful'. The other options do not convey the same meaning.

In British English, 'pavement' refers to the footpath or sidewalk where pedestrians walk. Therefore, the correct meaning of 'pavement' in this context is 'Footpath'.

The sentence 'You surprise me.' means that the speaker is surprised by the other person, so the correct paraphrase is 'I am surprised by you.' Option B ('You surprised') is grammatically incorrect and does not convey the intended meaning.

The correct preposition to express contrast in this sentence is 'Despite'. It shows that even though there were serious injuries, he still managed to play well. The other options do not fit the context grammatically or semantically.

The noun "cell phone" is a singular countable noun and requires an article. The correct indefinite article before a word starting with a consonant sound like "cell" is "A". Therefore, "A cell phone" is correct. The options "An" and "The" are incorrect here because "An" is used before vowel sounds, and "The" is a definite article used for specific known items. "None of these" is not applicable. Note that the original sentence has a verb agreement error ('do' should be 'does'), but since the question focuses on the article, the correct answer is "A."

The correct preposition to indicate possession or origin in this context is 'from'. 'She has two children from her first husband' correctly shows the relationship. Other options do not fit grammatically or semantically.

The correct preposition to use in this context is 'with' to indicate possession or condition related to the eye. 'He is blind with one eye' means he has blindness affecting one eye. 'Of' is incorrect here.

The correct preposition to use with 'concerned' in this context is 'about', making the phrase 'concerned about his affairs' correct. 'Concerned of' is not idiomatic English in this usage.

The correct preposition to use in this context is 'with' because you compare one thing with another. 'Compare to' is used to highlight similarities, but 'compare with' is the standard phrase for examining differences or similarities between two items.

The correct preposition to indicate the instrument used for writing is 'with'. Therefore, 'with black ink' is correct. 'In' and 'at' do not fit the context, and 'None of these' is incorrect since 'with' is appropriate.

The correct preposition to use with 'comply' in this context is 'with'. The phrase 'comply with the rules and regulations' is the standard and grammatically correct usage.

The correct phrase is "an hour's drive," which correctly uses the possessive form to indicate the duration of the drive. The other options are grammatically incorrect or unnatural in English.

The phrase 'Either my husband or my brother' is singular, so the singular possessive pronoun 'his' correctly agrees with the subject. 'Their' is plural and incorrect here, and 'its' is used for objects or animals, not people. 'None of these' is incorrect because 'his' is the correct choice.

The correct preposition to indicate duration of time is 'for'. 'For fifteen years' correctly expresses the length of time served. 'Since' is used with a specific starting point in time, which is not given here.

The correct preposition to use with 'consistent' in this context is 'with'. The phrase 'consistent with' means that our words should agree or be in harmony with our actions.

Option B, "him being taken on," is correct because after the preposition "to," the object pronoun "him" followed by the gerund "being taken on" is grammatically appropriate. The other options either use incorrect pronoun cases or structures.

The correct preposition to use with 'complains' in this context is 'of'. The phrase 'complains of headache' is standard English usage to indicate the subject is reporting a headache.
