The correct answer is Option 1 i.e 'enjoyable'.

Key Points

• The word "enjoyable" is an adjective, which modifies the noun "day" by describing what kind of day it was.
• Adjectives are used to describe or modify nouns or pronouns by providing more information about their qualities or characteristics.
• Adjectives often answer questions such as "what kind," "which one," or "how many," and in this case, "enjoyable" answers "what kind of day" the speaker had at school.

Therefore, the correct answer is- Option 1.

Additional Information

• The other options do not fit grammatically in the sentence:
• Option 2 ("enjoying"): This is a verb in its present participle form, which does not fit the context.
• Option 3 ("enjoyment"): This is a noun, which cannot directly modify another noun like "day" in this context.
• Option 4 ("enjoyed"): This is a past tense verb, which does not fit grammatically in the blank.

The correct answer is option 1.

Key Points

• The word "verified" means to confirm the accuracy, truth, or validity of something. (सत्यापित करना)
• Example: The documents were verified by the government authorities.
• The phrase "was not verified" is used in past tense to indicate that the verification did not happen in the past. (पिछले समय में सत्यापित नहीं किया गया)
• Example: The report was not verified by the auditor before submission.
• In the given sentence, the phrase "is not verified" is incorrect because the sentence discusses a past event, and hence, the past tense "was not verified" should be used.

Therefore, the correct answer is: Option 4 (was not verified).

Additional Information

Here are the other options explained along with their Hindi meanings and example sentences:

• Option 1: has not been verified (अब तक सत्यापित नहीं हुआ है): This phrase is in the present perfect tense, which refers to an action that started in the past but is relevant to the present. However, it does not fit here because the sentence refers to a past event.
• Example: The data has not been verified by the experts yet.
• Option 2: is not being verified yet (अभी तक सत्यापित नहीं किया जा रहा है): This phrase is in the present continuous tense and indicates an ongoing process, which is not suitable for the given sentence describing a past event.
• Example: The experiment is not being verified yet by the researchers.
• Option 3: No substitution required (कोई प्रतिस्थापन आवश्यक नहीं): This option implies that the original sentence is correct. However, the original sentence is incorrect because it uses "is not verified" instead of "was not verified."

Key Points

• The word "will" is used to indicate a future action or decision. (भविष्य में होने वाली क्रिया या निर्णय का संकेत देना)
• Example: She will attend the meeting tomorrow.
• "Would" is the past tense of "will," and it is often used to express a future action from the perspective of a past event. (भूतकाल में भविष्य की क्रिया का संकेत देना)
• Example: She said she would join us for dinner.
• In the given sentence, the future action "will go" is reported in indirect speech, so it needs to be changed to "would go" to align with the past-tense "said."

Therefore, the correct answer is: Option 4.

• Example: The ancestral house was part of his patrimony and had been in the family for generations.
• "Property inherited from one’s father" specifically denotes patrimony, as it is derived from the Latin word "pater," meaning father. (पैतृक संपत्ति)

Therefore, the correct answer is: Option 2 i.e. Patrimony.

• The correct form in the subjunctive mood is "If I were you."

• Thus, "were you" is the most suitable substitution for the underlined part of the sentence.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option 4.

• Option 2 (am you): Incorrect because "am" does not fit the context of the sentence.

• Options 1, 2, and 3 are grammatically incorrect in this context.
