Answer

a) Rearranging Words into Meaningful Sentences

i) A stitch in time saves nine.

  • Explanation: The phrase means that it is better to solve problems as soon as they arise rather than waiting for them to become bigger and more difficult.

ii) It takes a quarrel to make two.

  • Explanation: This sentence means that arguments often involve more than two people, and disagreements can escalate quickly.

b) Rewriting Sentences with Correct Tense

i) We got up at 4:30 yesterday morning.

  • Explanation: The sentence is in the past simple tense because the action (getting up) happened at a specific time in the past.

ii) Time and tide wait for none.

  • Explanation: This is a general truth, so the present simple tense is used.

iii) When will the new routine come into effect?

  • Explanation: The question is about a future event, so the future simple tense ("will") is used.

iv) We had our meal at college when we were at college.

  • Explanation: The sentence describes a past habit, so the past simple tense ("had") is used for the main action, while "were" is the past continuous tense for the ongoing state.

v) Listen! Someone is knocking at the gate.

  • Explanation: The action is happening at the moment of speaking, so the present continuous tense ("is knocking") is used.

vi) We must submit our assignment in time.

  • Explanation: The sentence expresses a necessity in the present, so the modal verb "must" is used with the base form of the verb ("submit").
