Correct Answer: No improvement
Explanation:
The phrase ?has been thrusted? is grammatically correct. This is because, when someone is forced to accept or deal with, this form of verb is used. Thus, the correct formation would be, ?Heavy work has been thrust on me?.
Correct Answer: assent
Explanation:
Ascent? means upward moment and is incorrect as per the meaning of the sentence. ?Accent? means to emphasize a particular feature; ?Approof? means trial, and ?Assent? means to give an expression of approval or agreement. Thus, ?Ascent? needs to be replaced with ?Assent? Thus, the correct formation would be, ?My father has given his assent for my long tour?.
Correct Answer: No improvement

Correct Answer: could help
Explanation:
Modal ?can? needs to be replaced with ?could? to make the sentence grammatically correct.?Could? is used to express power and possibility in past tense. Thus, the correct formation would be, ?I wish I could help you?.
Correct Answer: have been living

If some action has started in the past and is still continuing, then present perfect continuous tense should be used instead of present continuous tense.

Thus, the correct formation would be, ?I have been living in Bombay for the last ten years?.
