Explanation

This is a conditional sentence giving a warning or consequence.

Correct sentence: Study hard, or you will fail the test.

("Or" shows the result if you don't study.)

Explanation

This is a conditional sentence (Type 2), which uses "were" with "I" in hypothetical situations.

Correct sentence: "If I were you, I would have told him the truth."

Explanation

Correct Narration Change:

The original sentence ("Please don't go away," he said to me.) is an implored request (polite command).

In indirect speech, "said to" changes to "requested" (for polite pleas) or "told" (neutral).

"Don’t go away" becomes "not to go away" (infinitive structure in reported speech).

Explanation

The sentence refers to a completed action in the past, so "was" is correct.

Correct sentence: "She was ill for a week."

Explanation

"Minutes ago" indicates a completed action in the past, so simple past tense is used.

Correct sentence: "He went out five minutes ago."

Explanation

When using "Neither...nor," the verb agrees with the noun closest to it.

"Friends" is plural, so the correct verb is "were."

Explanation

This is a matter of little importance.

**

 we always use the "of " preposition with the "matter." 

"Of " is always used after the noun (matter is a noun in the above sentence)

If we can choose the " in, on, and with with" preposition it changes the meaning of the original sentence.
