Here's the complete solution to Worksheet 1 – Conjunctions, with clear explanations for each part.

## ✔ 1. Underline the conjunctions in the following sentences.

Conjunctions are words that connect words, phrases, clauses, or sentences. Common ones include: *and, but, or, so, because, since, as, although, yet, while, when*, etc.

(a) My mother loves to cook, _because_ she has a special talent for it.
→ because connects two clauses — explains *why* she loves to cook.

(b) The man is smart _but_ the woman is smarter.
→ but shows contrast between the two people.

(c) My sister ate all her chocolates _but_ she was still hungry.
→ but again shows contrast — expected to be full, but wasn’t.

(d) Mohan fell ill, _so_ he decided to go to the doctor.
→ so indicates result — illness led to visiting the doctor.

(e) Reena studies biology _as_ she wants to become a doctor.
→ as means “because” here — gives the reason for studying biology.

(f) _Since_ it was raining, they decided to stay at home.
→ since introduces the reason (it was raining → stayed home).

## ✔ 2. Fill in the blanks with the appropriate conjunctions given in brackets.

Choose the conjunction that makes logical and grammatical sense.

(a) The teacher wanted the students to do both English _and_ Social Science homework.
→ and — used to join two similar items (subjects). “Both...and” is a common pair.

(b) Sunil let his friend play with his pet dog, _but_ not with his football.
→ but — shows contrast: allowed one thing, not the other.

(c) He was happy with his gifts _yet_ he wanted more.
→ yet — shows contrast despite being happy, he still wanted more.
*(“and” would not show contrast — “yet” fits better.)*

(d) My father wants to go to the beach _as_ he loves to sit in the sun.
→ as — gives the reason. (You could also use “because”, but “as” is given and fits.)

(e) Take the cake out of the oven _when_ the timer goes off.
→ when — indicates time. You take it out *at the moment* the timer rings.
*(“before” would mean take it out early — illogical.)*

(f) Mahesh did not score well _although_ he performed well in the class tests.
→ although — shows contrast: did well in class tests, but didn’t score well overall.
*(“though” also works, but “although” is preferred in formal writing and is listed first.)*

## ✔ 3. Rearrange the words to make sentences.

Make sure the sentence is grammatically correct and meaningful.

(a) Sheena / well / can sing / cannot / but / play a guitar.

✔ Correct sentence:
Sheena can sing well but cannot play a guitar.

→ Structure: Subject + modal verb (“can”) + verb phrase (“sing well”) + conjunction (“but”) + negative modal (“cannot”) + verb phrase (“play a guitar”).

(b) call bell rang / when / about to / my mother / cooking / finish her / the / was

✔ Correct sentence:
My mother was about to finish her cooking when the bell rang.

→ Structure: Subject (“My mother”) + past continuous (“was about to finish”) + object (“her cooking”) + time clause (“when the bell rang”).
