Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → (A) and (C) only
(A) According to the date sheet, our Chemistry practical begins at 9:30 am next Tuesday. — Correct.
- An event fixed by a timetable, even in the future, takes the simple present (“begins”).
(B) My cousin has cleared her Class 12 board exams in March 2024. — Incorrect.
- The given sentence says “has cleared ... in March 2024”.
- A finished past time like “in March 2024” takes the simple past, not the present perfect.
- Correct form: My cousin cleared her Class 12 board exams in March 2024.
(C) Look! The milk is boiling over on the stove. — Correct.
- “Look!” points to an action going on now, so it takes the present continuous: is + V-ing.
(D) Kavya did not brought her geometry box to school yesterday. — Incorrect.
- The given sentence says “did not brought”.
- After “did” / “did not”, the verb takes its base form, not its past form.
- Correct form: Kavya did not bring her geometry box to school yesterday.
