The rule is to select a question from the options that is similar to the sentence above except for the word in capital letters.

Emphatic stress is the placement of greater stress on a particular word or syllable in a sentence or utterance. The rule is to select a question from the options that is similar to the sentence above except for the word in capital letters.

Emphatic stress is the placement of greater stress on a particular word or phrase in a sentence or expression in order to highlight its importance, contrast or to express a strong feeling or affirmation. This stress changes the meaning of the sentence or draws attention to the information emphasised. In emphatic stress questions, the goal is to find the question that the expression is trying to correct. The word in capital letters is stressed to correct a mistake made in the question. Therefore, the option that has a word different from the one in capital letters should be the correct answer. In the sentence, "They FLEW to Abuja," the question that best fits is "Did they go to Abuja by road?" It shows that the responder to the question is trying to correct the fact that they did not go by road but FLEW to Abuja.

The sentence suggests that the person acted in a manner that is unreasonable or harsh. "Cruel" fits this context, as it describes someone who would behave in a way that causes harm or suffering.

The subject of the sentence is "Neither Agbo nor his parents". In this case, the use of the compound conjunction "neither...or" requires that the verb that follows this should agree with the noun nearest to it which is "his parents." Therefore, the plural verb "attend" should be used. Also, the use of the word "now" to suggest that the event or situation being described is in the present, so it is imperative that a verb in the present tense be used.

The sentence discusses modern dancing and how it has become more scientific. The phrase "requires..." should logically be followed by something that reflects the skill or expertise needed for modern dancing. "Choreographic skill" refers to the ability to create and arrange dance movements which is more related to dancing than any other option.

The most appropriate option to fill the gap is B. would have stepped down. The sentence is in the modal form, which is used to talk about hypothetical situations in the past. The correct form is “If + past perfect, would + have + past participle”. In this case, the correct sentence would be “If he had considered his public image carefully, he would have stepped down from his office in the election”. The terms “step down” and “stand down” are interchangeable and can be used to indicate the act of resigning from a position or office. However, “step down” is more commonly used when discussing political positions or offices. In the sentence “Had he considered his public image carefully, he would have stepped down from his office in the election,” the phrase “would have stepped down” is used to indicate that the person would have resigned from their position if they had considered their public image more carefully.

The subject "government" is singular, so the verb should be "was" (singular form). The possessive pronoun "its" correctly refers back to the singular noun "government" and indicates ownership of the workers being recruited. Thus, the sentence should read: "The government which was recruiting its workers suddenly stopped doing so."

The sentence should read: Of course, we all saw the culprit approach and hit the man on the head. The verb to fill in the gap should model the verb "hit" in the other part of the compound structure.
