Solutions:
S1. Ans. (c)
Sol. Among the given statements, only statements (B) and (D) can be logically connected with “EVEN IF”. The correct statement thus formed will be:
In English ‘libraries’ are book repositories where you rent out printed work for free whereas in French it’s the plural for ‘bookshop’.
S2. Ans. (d)
Sol. ‘While’ is used to talk about two longer events or activities happening at the same time. So, on this basis both C-D and B-D can be linked to form a meaningful sentence.
S3. Ans. (a)
Sol. From the given options, only B-D can be connected using given connector to make a meaningful sentence as can be seen from the usage of the word ‘vegan’ in both sentences. Rest sentences/phrases fail to do so. Hence, the correct answer choice would be option (a)
S4. Ans. (d)
Sol. Among the given statements, both (B)-(C) and (B)-(D) form grammatically correct and contextually meaningful sentences. Thus, the statements formed will be:
“Although tuna is a healthy fish, it harbors the heavy metal mercury.”
“Although tuna is a healthy fish, you are meant to consume tuna only for three days.”
S5. Ans. (a)
