The beans have not been properly ________
A
grind
B
ground
C
grinding
D
grounded
medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option B
Grammar & Contextual Explanation
In the sentence, the verb "properly" is used to describe how the action of grinding the beans was performed. The correct form of the verb "grind" to use with "properly" is "ground."
Here's why "ground" is the correct choice:
- "Grind" is the base form of the verb, used in the present tense (e.g., "I grind the coffee beans every morning").
- "Ground" is the past participle form of the verb, used to form the past tense and past perfect tense (e.g., "I ground the coffee beans yesterday" or "I have ground the coffee beans before").
In the sentence "The beans have not been properly ground," "ground" is the past participle form of "grind" and is used because the action of grinding the beans happened in the past and is completed.

A
colleague
B
comrade
C

D

medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option D
Grammar & Contextual Explanation
A partner is someone who shares ownership or responsibility in a business venture. The sentence mentions the advantage of starting a business from scratch as opposed to buying or merging with an existing business, which would involve becoming a partner and potentially inheriting bad debt. Therefore, "partner" is the appropriate word to fill in the blank.
