Step-by-step solution for: CBSE English Grammar Exercises for Class 2 (English Worksheets)
Let's go through each sentence one by one, identify the mistakes (spelling, punctuation, capitalization, or grammar), and correct them. Here’s the corrected version of each sentence with explanations:
---
1. Original: *If Janie calls tonite, tell them I'm not home.*
- Mistakes:
- "tonite" → incorrect spelling; should be "tonight"
- "them" → unclear pronoun; since Janie is singular, it should be "her" (assuming we're referring to Janie)
- Missing comma after introductory clause
- Corrected: *If Janie calls tonight, tell her I'm not home.*
- Explanation: Corrected spelling ("tonite" → "tonight"), used proper pronoun ("them" → "her"), and added a comma after the introductory clause.
---
2. Original: *Not for the world would I go to the top of the Brooklyn bridge.*
- Mistakes:
- "Brooklyn bridge" → should be capitalized as "Brooklyn Bridge" (proper noun)
- The sentence is grammatically correct otherwise, but may need a comma for clarity.
- Corrected: *Not for the world would I go to the top of the Brooklyn Bridge.*
- Explanation: Capitalized "Bridge" because it's part of the name of a specific landmark.
---
3. Original: *He run quick to second base.*
- Mistakes:
- "run" → incorrect verb form; subject "He" requires "runs" in present tense
- "quick" → adjective; should be adverb "quickly" to modify the verb "run"
- Corrected: *He runs quickly to second base.*
- Explanation: Subject-verb agreement ("He runs") and correct use of adverb ("quickly").
---
4. Original: *Noone wanted too be with he at lunch.*
- Mistakes:
- "Noone" → incorrect spelling; should be "Nobody" or "No one" (two words)
- "too" → misspelled; should be "to"
- "he" → pronoun error; should be "him" (object of preposition "with")
- Corrected: *No one wanted to be with him at lunch.*
- Explanation: Fixed spelling ("Noone" → "No one"), corrected "too" → "to", and changed "he" → "him" for proper object form.
---
5. Original: *The horse had jump over the stream when the wolve catched it.*
- Mistakes:
- "jump" → should be "jumped" (past participle needed with "had")
- "wolve" → misspelled; should be "wolf"
- "catched" → incorrect past tense; should be "caught"
- Corrected: *The horse had jumped over the stream when the wolf caught it.*
- Explanation: Corrected verb tenses ("had jumped", "caught"), fixed spelling ("wolve" → "wolf").
---
6. Original: *Chilen should listen to her parents like his sister done.*
- Mistakes:
- "Chilen" → misspelled; should be "Children"
- "her" → inconsistent pronoun; if the child is male, use "his"; if female, use "her". But here, "his sister" implies the child is male → use "his"
- "done" → incorrect verb form; should be "did" (past tense of "do")
- Corrected: *Children should listen to their parents like his sister did.*
- Explanation: Fixed spelling ("Chilen" → "Children"), corrected pronoun ("her" → "their" or "his" depending on context — "their" is more inclusive and accurate here), and changed "done" → "did".
> Note: "his sister" suggests the child is male, but using "their" avoids gender bias and works better in modern English. Alternatively: *"Children should listen to their parents like his sister did."* is acceptable.
---
7. Original: *Its not important what people looks like, its how he acts.*
- Mistakes:
- "Its" → possessive, but should be "It's" (contraction of "It is")
- "looks" → subject "people" is plural; should be "look"
- "its" → again, should be "It's"
- "he" → pronoun mismatch; "people" is plural → should be "they"
- Missing comma before conjunction
- Corrected: *It's not important what people look like; it's how they act.*
- Explanation: Used contractions correctly ("It's"), fixed verb agreement ("looks" → "look"), corrected pronoun ("he" → "they"), and used a semicolon to join two independent clauses.
---
8. Original: *Lance's parents decided that he could go but he could only stay an hour.*
- Mistakes:
- "an hour" → missing article? Actually, "an hour" is correct, but the sentence is redundant.
- Repetition: "he could go" and "he could only stay..." — can be simplified.
- Missing comma before coordinating conjunction
- Corrected: *Lance's parents decided that he could go, but he could only stay for an hour.*
- Explanation: Added comma before "but" for proper punctuation, and added "for" to make "stay for an hour" more natural. Alternatively, you could say: *"Lance's parents decided he could go, but only stay for an hour."*
