Worksheet: Adjectives – Worksheet 2

#### a. Choose one of the adjectives from the list to describe the things below.

Adjectives given: fresh, story, red, stale, black

1. a ________ bread
→ "fresh" or "stale" are both possible, but "fresh" is more common for positive description.
✔ Answer: fresh
(e.g., fresh bread)

2. a ________ juice
→ "red" is a likely choice (e.g., red juice like tomato or cranberry).
✔ Answer: red

3. a ________ book
→ "story" book is a common phrase (e.g., storybook).
✔ Answer: story

4. a ________ board
→ "black" board is a common term (e.g., blackboard).

#### b. Pick a noun for the given adjectives.

Adjectives: pencil, shop, cake, baby, bus

6. a creamy ________
→ "creamy" describes texture — best matches cake (e.g., creamy cake)
✔ Answer: cake

7. a yellow ________
→ Yellow could describe a bus (school buses are yellow), or a pencil (yellow pencil). But pencil is more commonly associated with yellow.
✔ Answer: pencil

8. a blunt ________
→ A pencil can be blunt (not sharp).
✔ Answer: pencil

9. a small ________
→ A shop can be small (e.g., small shop), or a baby, but “small baby” is less common than “small shop.” However, baby is also acceptable. But “small shop” is more natural in context.
✔ Answer: shop (or possibly baby — but "small shop" is better fit)

Actually, “a small baby” is grammatically correct and common. But since we’re matching the adjective to the most natural noun, both are valid. Let’s go with baby because it's often described as “small” in contrast to “big.”
✔ Answer: baby

10. a cute ________
→ “Cute baby” is a common phrase.
✔ Answer: baby

#### c. Complete the following sentences.

11. The poor boy ________
→ Needs a verb or a complement. Possible completions:
- The poor boy cried
- The poor boy was hungry
But based on typical sentence patterns, we might expect something like:
✔ The poor boy was crying.
Or if it's an open-ended exercise, perhaps:
✔ The poor boy had no food.
But let's assume we need a simple subject-verb-object or subject-complement.
Best completion:
✔ The poor boy was sad.
(But since it's not specified, any logical continuation works.)

However, in many worksheets, they expect a verb. So:
✔ The poor boy cried.

12. The empty bottle ________
→ Needs a verb or state.
Example: The empty bottle lay on the ground
Or: The empty bottle was thrown away
Simple version:
✔ The empty bottle stood there.
Or: The empty bottle was discarded.

But simplest and most common:
✔ The empty bottle was lying on the floor.

13. These salty chips ________
→ Need a verb or description.
e.g., These salty chips taste good
Or: These salty chips are delicious
Or: These salty chips make me thirsty
Most natural:
✔ These salty chips taste delicious.

14. This hot tea ________
→ e.g., This hot tea is soothing
Or: This hot tea makes me warm
Or: This hot tea is too hot to drink
Best general answer:
✔ This hot tea is refreshing.

📝 Explanation:

- Adjectives describe nouns (e.g., *red* apple, *fresh* bread).
- In part a, we matched descriptive words from the list to the nouns.
- In part b, we chose nouns that logically go with the adjectives (e.g., "creamy" fits "cake").
- In part c, we completed sentences using appropriate verbs or complements to make sense.
