The focus is on testing the candidate\u2019s understanding of English through contextual errors and understanding of basic grammar through grammatical errors. Let us understand how to approach Phrase replacement in ssc and defence exams.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_can_you_start\"><\/span><strong>How can you start ?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Go through previous years\u2019 papers (at least 2-3 years) of SSC and defence exams and go through each phrase replacement question asked in the paper. You will get an idea about different concepts that have been in focus since 2-3 years. Better it would be if you write down the concepts somewhere and revise at least these concepts before examination. If you have sufficient time, then kickstart your preparation with these concepts and then practice more and more of phrase replacement questions so that you will get acquainted with varieties of phrase replacement which can be asked in the SSC and defence examination.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Approach_Phrase_Replacement_in_SSC_%E2%80%93_5_sure_shot_tips\"><\/span><strong>How to Approach Phrase Replacement in SSC &#8211; 5 sure shot tips<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Tip 1<\/strong>: Always mind the tense of the given sentence i.e. tense of the part of the sentence which is not underlined. Only that part which does not have any error will decide the tense of the whole sentence.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tip 2<\/strong>:Try to understand the sentence contextually as sometimes in phrase replacement errors are not just grammatical. Sometimes they do not fit in the sentence meaningfully. So, if you have the understanding about what the sentence wants to convey then it will be easy to identify such incorrect phrases.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tip 3<\/strong>: The all-time favourite elimination method. This helps you to weed out options which you are sure that they cannot be the answer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tip 4<\/strong>: Keep in mind some frequent concepts related to grammar which are asked in SSC and defence exams.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tip 5<\/strong>: In many cases different concepts are mixed in a question. For ex: both tenses and subject verb agreement are tested together in a question and different options will have different concept related error. On should know how to identify them.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Important_Concepts_in_the_Exam_Point_of_View\"><\/span><strong>Important Concepts in the Exam Point of View<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3>I.<strong>SUBJECT-VERB AGREEMENT<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This concept is frequently tested in the examination at least 3-4 questions must be related to subject verb agreement.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>II .To+ Infinitive<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This concept is also often asked in the SSC exam i.e. when used as infinitive marker \u2018to\u2019 is followed by a root verb.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>III. Helping Verbs<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>One should know this concept also i.e. need of helping verb and where to place helping verb in a sentence. As in an interrogative sentence helping verb is placed differently than an assertive sentence.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>IV.Use of phrases<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Sometimes in phrase replacement \u2018phrasal verbs\u2019 and certain known phrases such as \u2018get used to\u2019(means \u2018become familiar with it or get to know them, so that you no longer feel that the thing or person is unusual or surprising\u2019).<\/p>\n<h3><strong>V.Use of correct tense<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Use of correct tenses is very important, and many questions are based on it. Though extensive knowledge of tenses is not required as focus is on basic concepts related to tenses.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>VI.Use of correct preposition<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>There are phrases where incorrect preposition is used, and you need to identify it. Go through previous years papers and see how you find these preposition questions. Make a list of prepositions which can be asked. Usually they are easy and solvable.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>VII.Rule related to Modal verbs<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Modal verbs such as should, would, can, may, must are followed by a root verb. This concept is often asked in the exam. So, the best way is to know which are modal verbs and they should be followed by a root verb in the given sentence.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>VIII. Use of WHO and WHICH<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>One should know some general rules such as \u2018who\u2019 is used with living things and \u2018which\u2019 is used with non-living things.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>IX.Use of participle after HELPING VERB (\u2018be\u2019) and auxiliary verb \u2018has\/have<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>There are a few concepts which are asked in the exam such as: Use of present and past participle after helping verb \u2018is\/are\/was\/were\u2019, use of past participle after auxiliary verb has\/have.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>X.Use of correct ARTICLE<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Knowledge of use of articles \u2018the\u2019, \u2018a\u2019 and \u2018an\u2019 is also tested in the SSC exam.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>XI.Use of COMPARATIVE DEGREE when needed<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Correct use of comparative degree in a sentence when needed is also asked in exam.<\/p>\n<p>These are a few concepts which important as per the previous years\u2019 papers and also are important in general. We hope you got an idea about<strong> how to approach phrase replacement for SSC and defence exams<\/strong>. Practice as much as possible to understand variety in questions.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>We present you with a few phrase replacements questions below. Try them to get a better understanding of phrase replacement questions asked in SSC and Defence exams.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sample_Phrase_Replacement_Questions_with_Explanation\"><\/span><strong>Sample Phrase Replacement Questions with Explanation<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Identify the best way to improve the underlined part of the given sentences. If there is no improvement required, select \u2018no improvement\u2019.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I. They believe that capitalism is <u>not a better<\/u> economic system for India.<\/p>\n<p>(a).No improvement<\/p>\n<p>(b)Not a good<\/p>\n<p>(c)None a bad<\/p>\n<p>(d)Not a worst<\/p>\n<p>Answer Key: b)<\/p>\n<p>Solution: The underlined part is incorrect as the sentence does not compare any two entities. So, use of comparative degree is incorrect here. \u2018Better\u2019 needs to be replaced by \u2018good\u2019. Use of \u2018none\u2019 is incorrect in option c). In option d) use of superlative degree \u2018worst\u2019 of adjective \u2018bad\u2019 is incorrect with article \u2018a\u2019. Hence, the answer is option b).<\/p>\n<p>II. The guests <u>did not want to eat<\/u> anything since they were not hungry after the party.<\/p>\n<p>(a) doesn\u2019t wanted to eat<\/p>\n<p>(b) didn\u2019t wanted to eat<\/p>\n<p>(c) don\u2019t wants to eat<\/p>\n<p>(d) No improvement<\/p>\n<p>Answer key: d)<\/p>\n<p>Solution: The underlined phrase of the sentence is both contextually and grammatically correct. Hence, the answer is option d).<\/p>\n<p>III. This use of technology <u>help farmers<\/u> with existing credit to enhance their eligibility<\/p>\n<p>(a) Will helping farmers<\/p>\n<p>(b) Helps farmers<\/p>\n<p>(c) Helping farmers<\/p>\n<p>(d) No improvement<\/p>\n<p>Answer Key: b)<\/p>\n<p>Solution: The underlined part is incorrect as the singular noun \u2018technology\u2019 will take a singular helping verb after it. So, \u2018help\u2019 needs to be replaced by \u2018helps\u2019 as per the subject verb agreement rule. In option a) \u2018will\u2019 needs to be followed by \u2018be\u2019 for being followed by a present participle (i.e. \u2018helping\u2019 here) (The rule is \u2018will\u2019+ \u2018be\u2019+ \u2018present\/past participle\u2019). In option c) the present participle \u2018helping\u2019 needs a helping verb before it (i.e. is\/was). Hence, the answer is option b).<\/p>\n<p>IV. His comments come a day after the World Bank <u>announced the decision <\/u><u>with <\/u>pause publication of its global \u2018Doing Business Report.<\/p>\n<p>(a) announces the decision to<\/p>\n<p>(b) No improvement<\/p>\n<p>(c) Announced the decision to<\/p>\n<p>(d) Declared that<\/p>\n<p>Answer Key: c)<\/p>\n<p>Solution: The underlined part is incorrect as the use of preposition \u2018with\u2019 needs to be replaced by \u2018to\u2019 as \u2018to\u2019 is used as an infinitive marker which is followed by a root verb i.e. \u2018pause\u2019 here. Use of \u2018announces\u2019 is incorrect in option a) as the given sentence talks about an event of the past. In option d) the phrase \u2018declared that\u2019 is incomplete and does not add meaning to the sentence. Hence, the answer is option c).<\/p>\n<p>V.\u00a0 Maguire claimed that incident took place outside a police station after he <u>attempt to take<\/u> his younger sister Daisy to a hospital.<\/p>\n<p>(a) Attempted to take<\/p>\n<p>(b) Will attempt to take<\/p>\n<p>(c) No improvement<\/p>\n<p>(d) Was attempting to have<\/p>\n<p>Answer Key: a)<\/p>\n<p>Solution: The given sentence talks about an event of the past so use of present tense is incorrect. So, the underlined part is incorrect. \u00a0This eliminates option b) also where future tense is used. In option d) use of \u2018have\u2019 is incorrect as it does not fit contextually in the sentence. Hence, the answer is option a).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oliveboard.in\/ssc-cgl\/?ref=content_mj\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-62185\" src=\"https:\/\/www.oliveboard.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/phrase-2.png\" alt=\"how to approach phrase replacement in ssc and defence exams\" width=\"1135\" height=\"478\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>To attempt Phrase Replacement Topic test\u00a0 and master this concept &#8211;\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oliveboard.in\/ssc-cgl\/?ref=content_mj\"> Register here<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>That brings us to the end of the article.
