Grammar quiz worksheet from Quizizz featuring fill-in-the-blank and sentence transformation questions.

Let’s go through each question one by one and fill in the blanks or choose the correct option.

---

1. He found the key just ___ the front door.
→ We’re talking about location — where the key was found. The most natural preposition here is under, behind, or near. But since it says “just”, it implies very close to the door. Common phrase: “just under the front door” or “just behind”. But without more context, “under” is often used for keys left near doors (like slipped under). However, in many grammar exercises, “by” or “near” also work. Let’s think: “just by the front door” sounds very natural. Actually, “beside” or “next to” could too. But looking at common usage in such sentences, “by” is simple and fits well. Wait — actually, let’s check standard answers for similar questions. Often, it’s “under” if it’s on the floor, but if it’s hanging or on a hook, maybe not. Since no context, safest is “by”. Hmm — actually, I recall a common phrase: “found the key just outside the front door” — but that’s not an option we’re choosing from. Since this is fill-in-the-blank with no options, we pick the most logical. Let me reconsider: In many textbooks, this sentence uses “under”. But let’s look at Q4 — “put the flute ___ his lips” → that’s clearly “to”. So for Q1, perhaps “by” is best. Actually, wait — let’s see what makes sense grammatically and logically. “Just by the front door” = very close to it. Yes. I’ll go with by.

But hold on — let’s double-check all before finalizing.

Actually, let’s do them systematically.

1. He found the key just ___ the front door.
→ Preposition of place. “By” means near. “Under” means beneath. “Behind” means at the back. Without context, “by” is safest. But in many similar exercises, it’s “under” (as in slipped under the door). Let’s assume it’s “under” — because “just under” is a common collocation for keys found near doors. I think under is better.

Wait — let’s move on and come back.

---

2. I could not accompany my cousin ___ the trip
→ “Accompany someone on a trip” is the correct phrase. So answer: on

---

3. The noise prevented us ___ sleeping
→ “Prevent someone from doing something” → so from

---

4. The young man put the flute ___ his lips and began to play
→ You put a flute *to* your lips. So to

---

5. Ashok leaned ___ the wall tiredly
→ Lean against the wall → against

---

6. The paper dart went gliding ___ the air.
→ Gliding through the air → through

---

7. The cyclist rode quickly ___ the path
→ Rode along the path → along

---

8. The young child carried the heavy bucket ___ the stairs.
→ Carried up the stairs? Down? It doesn’t specify direction. But “up” is common if carrying something heavy. Or “down”? Actually, the verb is “carried”, which doesn’t imply direction. But in such contexts, often “up” is assumed if not specified. Wait — actually, the blank is for preposition. Could be “up”, “down”, or “on”. But “carried the bucket on the stairs” doesn’t make sense. “Up the stairs” or “down the stairs”. Since it’s heavy, probably going up is harder, so maybe “up”. But the sentence doesn’t say. Hmm. Actually, in grammar exercises, when it says “carried ___ the stairs”, it’s usually up or down. But without context, perhaps up is default. Wait — let’s think: if you carry something heavy, you might be going up. I’ll go with up.

But actually, let’s check: “carried the bucket up the stairs” is a common phrase. Yes.

Now Q9-11 are multiple choice.

9. Arun gave Ramesh some excellent advice. (Begin : Ramesh was ....)
We need to change to passive voice starting with “Ramesh was...”

Original: Arun (subject) gave (verb) Ramesh (indirect object) some excellent advice (direct object).

Passive: Ramesh was given some excellent advice by Arun.

Look at options:

A. Ramesh is given... → wrong tense (present vs past)

B. Ramesh was given some excellent advice by Arun. → Correct!

C. Ramesh was given some excellent advice. → Missing “by Arun” — incomplete

D. Ramesh gave... → active voice, wrong subject

So B

---

10. Father said to Sunil, "I can help you with your homework." (Begin : Father told ....)
Change to reported speech.

Direct: “I can help you” → Reported: he could help him

Also, “your” becomes “his” (since Sunil is male, assuming)

Options:

A. Father told Sunil that he could help him with his homework. → Good. “he” refers to father, “him” to Sunil, “his” to Sunil’s homework.

B. ...that I could help him... → “I” should become “he” — wrong

C. ...help him with her homework → “her” is wrong, Sunil is male

D. ...that he can help him → “can” should become “could” for reported speech (backshift)

So A is correct.

---

11. The boy asked, "Why are you lying on the road in this manner?" (Begin : The boy asked ...)
Reported speech.

Direct: “Why are you lying...” → Reported: why he was lying...

Also, “you” becomes “he” (assuming the person being addressed is male), and “are” becomes “was”.

So: The boy asked why he was lying on the road in that manner.

Note: “this” becomes “that” in reported speech.

But the question doesn’t give options — it’s fill-in? Wait, looking back at the image, Q11 is written as:

“The boy asked, 'Why are you lying on the road in this manner?' (Begin : The boy asked ....)”

And then it stops — no options shown. But in the original image, it might continue, but in the text provided, it cuts off. Since the user only provided up to Q11 start, and no options, perhaps we need to complete the sentence.

But in the initial problem, Q9 and Q10 have options A-D, but Q11 does not show options in the text. Looking at the user’s input:

After Q10, it says:

“11. The boy asked, "Why are you lying on the road in this manner?" (Begin : The boy asked ....)”

And then nothing else. So probably, we need to write the reported speech version.

So: The boy asked why he was lying on the road in that manner.

But to match the format, perhaps it’s expected to be completed.

Since the instruction is to solve the problem, and for Q1-8 and Q11, we fill blanks, for Q9-10 choose letters.

But Q11 has no options, so we write the full sentence.

However, in the response format, we need to provide final answers.

Perhaps for consistency, since Q9 and Q10 are multiple choice, and Q11 might be intended to be similar, but in the text, it’s not. Looking back at the user’s message, after Q11, it ends. So I think for Q11, we need to complete the sentence.

But let’s confirm the pattern.

In the image description, Q9 and Q10 have A,B,C,D options, Q11 starts but no options shown. Probably, in the actual quiz, Q11 also has options, but they are not included in the text provided. Since the user said “uploaded an image”, but in text, only up to Q11 beginning is given.

To be safe, I’ll assume for Q11, we need to write the reported speech.

But let’s see the instruction: “Solve the problem accurately.” and “provide the final answer”.

Perhaps for fill-in-blanks, we list the words, for MCQs, the letter.

For Q11, since no options, we write the completion.

But to match, let’s do:

For Q1-8: prepositions

Q9-10: letters

Q11: the completed sentence

But in the final answer section, we need to box or list.

Perhaps list all answers in order.

Let me compile:

1. under (I think "under" is better than "by" for key near door)

Earlier I wavered, but let's decide: "He found the key just under the front door" — common if it's on the floor. "By" is also possible, but "under" is more specific and often used. I'll go with under.

2. on

3. from

4. to

5. against

6. through

7. along

8. up

9. B

10. A

11. The boy asked why he was lying on the road in that manner.

But for Q11, the begin is "The boy asked ....", so we complete: "why he was lying on the road in that manner."

Now, to present final answer.

Since the user might expect for Q1-8 the word, Q9-10 the letter, Q11 the phrase.

In the response, we can list them.

But the instruction says: "Final Answer: [Provide only the final correct answer]"

So perhaps list all in sequence.

Let me write:

Final Answer:

1. under
2. on
3. from
4. to
5. against
6. through
7. along
8. up
9. B
10. A
11. why he was lying on the road in that manner

But for Q11, is "that manner" correct? In reported speech, "this" becomes "that", yes.

Also, "you" becomes "he" — assuming the person addressed is male. If not specified, "he" is conventional.

Some might say "they", but traditionally "he".

I think it's fine.

Now, to confirm Q1: I recall that in some sources, it's "by", but let's think: "just by the front door" means near it, while "under" means beneath. Since it's a key, often found under doormats or under the door, so "under" is plausible. I'll stick with under.

Another thought: in British English, "outside" might be used, but "under" is acceptable.

I think it's okay.

So final answers as above.
