Solutions

42.(C) Adverb

In 'It is very interesting to know your story', the word very modifies the adjective 'interesting' and tells us to what degree, so it is an adverb (of degree). 'Interesting' is the adjective, 'story' a noun and 'it' a pronoun.

43.(C) ones

The blank stands for the plural noun 'cases' already named in the first clause, and the plural substitute word for a countable noun is ones — 'the corporate ones'. 'One' is singular and cannot replace 'cases', 'too' is an adverb, and 'those' cannot follow the article 'the'.

Common questions about Parts of Speech in PPSC

How many Parts of Speech questions come in PPSC exams?

The Commission set 2 Parts of Speech questions across 2 papers between 2018–2024. That is the whole set, not a sample — every one of them is in the book, and the 2 most-asked are on this page free.

Are PPSC Parts of Speech questions repeated?

Not in this set — each of these 2 was set once in the years covered. Questions elsewhere in the book do repeat, and carry a badge saying how often.

Where can I get Parts of Speech MCQs with answers and solutions?

Here. Every question on this page is a solved MCQ: the four options as printed, the correct answer, and a worked explanation in plain English — not just a letter. The rest of the 2 are in the book, in the same form.

Can I practice these Parts of Speech questions online?

Switch to Attempt mode at the top of the questions. You get one question at a time and it is marked the moment you pick an option, with the reason underneath — the same way the exam feels, on your phone.

Is a PDF available?

The questions are on screen rather than in a downloadable file, so they stay current and correct. The printed book has all 2 of these plus the rest of the English section, and every buyer gets the whole thing online as well.

Which papers asked Parts of Speech

The exams behind these questions, most first. A paper here is a sitting: a question set in two papers of the same sitting counts once.
