B

C

D
to play
medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option C
Grammar & Contextual Explanation
When using the verb "heard" in the past tense, the action is already established in the past. The verb that follows should be in its base form (infinitive), not the past tense, because "heard" has already indicated the past.
The correct structure is to use the base form of the verb after "heard":
"We heard grandfather play the organ."

This is an improvement...........your last report
A
of
B
on
C
over
D
against
medium Difficulty
Verified Correct Answer: Option B
Grammar & Contextual Explanation
"This is an improvement on your last report."
"On" is the correct preposition used when talking about improvements in comparison to a previous thing or situation, such as a previous report. We use ‘improvement of,’ to refer to something becoming better. However, we mainly use this when talking about improvement in prospects. For example, ‘We anticipate the improvement of local public schools in the country.’ The prepositions "over" and "against" are not typically paired with the noun "improvement".
