Question 9: Put the words in the correct order: Question 9 options have ▲ ▼ do not ▲ ▼ any money ▲ ▼ I ▲ ▼ Drag items or use arrows to arrange them in the correct order.

🚩 Found a problem with this question? Q10 15
Question 10: The teacher said it is ___ a good idea to skip classes. Question 10 options Check answer
'Not' is correct because it negates the adjective phrase 'a good idea' when used after the verb 'is'. 'No' would need to come directly before a noun without an article.
🚩 Found a problem with this question? Q11 15
Question 11: Which statement about using 'no' and 'not' is true? Question 11 options Check answer
'No' is used as a determiner directly before a noun, while 'not' is used with verbs, adjectives, or adverbs. They are not interchangeable in these positions.
🚩 Found a problem with this question? Q12 15
Question 12: Rewrite the sentence using 'not': 'There are no students in the classroom.' → The classroom has students ___ it. Question 12 options Check answer
'Not in' is correct because the transformation requires 'not' to negate the adverbial phrase showing location. The original sentence used 'no' before a noun, but the new structure needs 'not' before a prepositional phrase.

🚩 Found a problem with this question? Q14 15
Question 14: In the phrase 'no idea', 'no' is used correctly as a determiner before the noun 'idea' to mean 'zero idea'. Question 14 options Check answer
True because 'no' can precede abstract nouns like 'idea' to express complete absence, as in 'I have no idea'. This is a standard and common use of 'no' as a determiner.
🚩 Found a problem with this question? Q15 15
Question 15: Which sentence best expresses that someone refused to attend a meeting? Question 15 options Check answer
'She decided not to go to the meeting' is the most natural way to negate an infinitive verb phrase. 'Not' is placed before 'to + verb' to show a deliberate negative decision. 'No go' and 'no going' are not standard negative infinitive constructions.
