Alice doesn’t really like to eat vegetables, but she ate a little peas

Can someone please reply......I am stuck here now...

Someone please help me on this.....

First of all I doubt the construction of the original sentence as well. Anyways If we continue we notice:
A) she ate a little peas, some carrots and both corn. This is wrong as peas are countable.
B) she ate some peas, much carrots and a couple corn. Same prob so wrong.
C)she ate some peas, a lot of carrots and a couple ears of corn. I cannot say this is the best construction but keep it on hold.
D)she ate a little peas, a little carrots and lots of corn
E)she ate some peas, a lot of carrots and a much ears of corn

So we can go with C.

thanks for explaining this to me. I would really appreciate, if you can also provide some thoughts on the other questions.

First of all we need to be extra cautious with emotional verbs such as feel.

A) Here suit was made by the Tailor, so correct construction should have been:
The suit made superbly by the tailor, caused the man [to] feel like a lion. Also caused is used when one condition caused some other, for example,

Your carelessness has caused me to spend 20 extra minutes...

B)The suit was altered superbly by the tailor, causing
Here I have the problem with causing..Also we have a better option..anyways keep it on hold.

C)When the suit can be made superbly by the tailor, it caused..also wrong. When starts a clause and we expect another clause after the comma.
For example:
When suit can be made superbly by the tailor, kurtas can also be made in same way.

D)The suit was altered superbly by the tailor, making
Looks nice , keep it on hold.

E)The altered suit is made superbly by the tailor, causing
Too wordy and how come an altered suit is made superbly...suit is altered or suit is made...seems to be too wordy. Not a good choice.

Among D and B if we compare

b) The suit was altered superbly by the tailor, causing

d) The suit was altered superbly by the tailor, making

The verb make seems more promising, as that suit made old man look like a lion. SO answer should be D.

A) My sister still has not decided the country where she wants to travel..

A better construction would be
My sister still has not decided the country she wants to travel after she graduates...

So keep it on hold.

B)which country she wants to visit still doesn’t know it...wrong no second thought.

C)is undecided about the country where she wants to travel..too much formal and wrong too.

D) hasn’t decided which country where she is traveling
WRONG.

E)Seems good..keep it on hold.

Among A and E.....E sounds better..so I will go with E.

thanks for the detailed explanation. I finally understood the real difference in those sentences.

thanks clarifying my doubts

Hi!
i still dont understand why "make" is better then "cause"

Is this just one of thoes times when it just "sounds" better... or is there a grammatical rule?

16. The suit made superbly by the tailor, causing the cowardly, old man feel like a fierce,
young lion.
a) The suit made superbly by the tailor, causing
b) The suit was altered superbly by the tailor, causing
c) When the suit can be made superbly by the tailor, it caused
d) The suit was altered superbly by the tailor, making
e) The altered suit is made superbly by the tailor, causing

I still dont understand why "making" is better then "caused" is there a gramatical rule or does it just sound better?

regards

thanks a lot

The suit made by tailor cannot 'cause' anything .. It can only 'make' him something.

D it is ..

To choose between A and E, do we have any other reason as well?

Between A and E, A is wrong. You can't "decide a country". When using 'decide' like this, it takes an indirect question as its complement.

decide if ...
decide whether ...
decide how ...
decide where ...
decide when ...
decide what ...
decide which ...

Hope this helps!

Please help me in understanding the answer to the question. I have a doubt between option 'B' and 'E'. Option 'E' is correct according to the key.

28. Two-thirds the students voted to visit the zoo and other one-third voted to go the amusement park, so the class went to the zoo.

Thanks.
