1. 1

   Which sentence corrects the faulty parallelism: 'During the retreat, the pupils sang songs, shared stories, and reflection journals were written.'

   1. 1During the retreat, the pupils sang songs, shared stories, and wrote in reflection journals.
   2. 2During the retreat, the pupils sang songs, stories were shared, and reflection journals.
   3. 3During the retreat, singing songs, sharing stories, and reflection journals were done by the pupils.
   4. 4During the retreat, the pupils were singing songs, shared stories, and writing in reflection journals.

   JawabanDuring the retreat, the pupils sang songs, shared stories, and wrote in reflection journals.

   Items in a series must take the same grammatical form. The active verbs sang, shared, and wrote keep all three elements parallel.

2. 2

   By the time the bell rang, the pupils ___ all their answers.

   1. 1had finished
   2. 2have finished
   3. 3finished
   4. 4will finish

   Jawabanhad finished

   An action completed before another past event takes the past perfect tense. 'Have finished' clashes with the past-time marker 'by the time the bell rang.'

3. 3

   Which revision corrects the misplaced modifier: 'Walking to school, a stray dog chased Marco.'

   1. 1While Marco was walking to school, a stray dog chased him.
   2. 2Walking to school, a stray dog chased Marco and barked loudly.
   3. 3A stray dog chased Marco while walking to school.
   4. 4The stray dog was chased by Marco while walking to school.

   JawabanWhile Marco was walking to school, a stray dog chased him.

   An introductory participial phrase must clearly modify the subject of the clause. Only the correct option makes Marco, not the dog, the one walking.

4. 4

   Each of the group leaders must submit ___ accomplishment report by Friday.

   1. 1his or her
   2. 2their
   3. 3its
   4. 4them

   Jawabanhis or her

   The antecedent 'Each of the group leaders' is grammatically singular, so it requires a singular pronoun. 'Their' would disagree in number with the antecedent.

5. 5

   Cellular phones have become so ubiquitous that even far-flung barangays now enjoy strong signal. The word 'ubiquitous' means ___.

   1. 1found everywhere
   2. 2very expensive
   3. 3recently invented
   4. 4rarely seen

   Jawabanfound everywhere

   The clue is that even remote barangays have signal, implying presence in all places at once. 'Ubiquitous' means existing or appearing everywhere.
