When Lady Bracknell says: "A hundred and thirty thousand pounds! And in the funds! Miss Cardew seems to me a most attractive young lady, now that I look at her"

Even though the whole scene is about trying to show that Miss Cardew is eligible for marriage, Lady Bracknell doesn't seem to accept it until she learns how much money she has. Suddenly then she seems to be a viable candidate for marriage.

Q3. Fill in the blanks with correct form of the Verb given in bracket:
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

Indians <u>are </u>known for their hospitality. They feel that guest is a person to be <u>honoured </u>and respected and <u>serving </u>him is a sacred duty. My mother <u>is</u> very particular about <u>keeping </u>things in their proper place, but the moment Mr. Narayan <u>arrived</u>, our guest room as well as our drawing room is in a total mess. He is very unsystematic and <u>throws </u>things here and there. As long as Mr. Narayan is in the house. our whole routine<u> is going to remain </u>upset.

Explanation:

Here, we need to pay attention to the tenses and voice of verbs.

The present simple tense (<em>are, throws</em>) is used to talk about habits, unchanging situations, general truths, and fixed arrangements.

The past simple tense (<em>arrived</em>) is used to talk about actions that took place and finished in the past.

The construction <em>is going to + infinitive</em><em> (is going to remain) </em>can be used for predictions based on something we can see or hear now.

Gerunds (<em>serving, keeping</em>) are nouns derived from verbs by adding -ing.

The passive voice (<em>to be honored</em>) is used when we want to emphasize the action and the object of a sentence rather than the subject.
