Wrong answeer (Question: 218183.3 )

From the very first sentence of the passage, we can infer that a person can at times speak correctly by accident, but not always. If he has the knowledge of grammar, then he will always speak correctly.

Hence the answer should be A: accident. Please check.

Question:
DIRECTIONS: You have a brief passage with 5 questions each.  Read the passages carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives and mark it by blackening the appropriate oval [.]  in the Answer Sheet.


Without a knowledge of grammar, it is impossible for you to write correctly and it is by mere accident if you speak correctly and pray, bear in mind, that all well-informed persons judge of a man’s mind (until they have other means of judging) by his writing or speaking. The labour necessary to acquire this knowledge is indeed not trifling: grammar is not like arithmetic, a science consisting of several distinct departments, some of which may be dispensed with: it is a whole and the whole must be learned, or no part is learned. The subject is abstruse : it demands much reflection and much patience, but when once the task is performed it is performed for life, and in everyday of that life it will be found to be, in a greater or less degree, a source of pleasure or of profit or both together. And what is the labour? It consists of no bodily exertion, it exposes the student to no cold, no hunger, no suffering of any sort. The study need subtract from the hours of neither business nor indeed from the hours of necessary exercise: the hours usually spent on the tea and coffee shops and in the mere gossip which accompany them: those wasted hours of only one year employed in the study of English grammar would make you a correct speaker and writer for the rest of your life.

At times, one can speak correctly by
Options:
A) accident
B) bodily exertion
C) acquiring the knowledge of grammar
D) writing correctly
Solution:
Ans: (c)
