1In the sentence 'Мы сейчас говорим о ______ (новые книги)', which prepositional plural form correctly completes the blank?

A.новых книгах

B.новые книги

C.новыми книгами

D.новых книг

Explanation: The preposition 'о' (about) requires the Prepositional case. For plural nouns and adjectives, the prepositional plural endings are '-ых/-их' for adjectives and '-ах/-ях' for nouns, resulting in 'новых книгах'.

2Complete the negative sentence expressing absence: 'У меня сегодня нет ______ (время).'

A.время

B.времени

C.временем

D.временим

Explanation: The word 'нет' (there is no) strictly governs the Genitive case. The neuter noun 'время' belongs to a special group of neuter nouns ending in '-мя' which declaim with the stem extension '-ен-', giving the Genitive singular form 'времени'.

3Which Dative form completes the sentence: 'Анна дала письмо ______ (старый друг)'?

A.старого друга

B.старым другом

C.старому другу

D.старом друге

Explanation: The verb 'дать' (to give) requires an indirect object in the Dative case. Masculine singular adjectives in the Dative take '-ому', and hard masculine nouns take '-у', yielding 'старому другу'.

4In Russian, to state a profession after the verb 'работать' (to work as), which case is used: 'Мой брат работает ______ (опытный врач)'?

A.опытного врача

B.опытному врачу

C.опытный врач

D.опытным врачом

Explanation: The verb 'работать' (to work as) governs the Instrumental case when specifying a profession. Masculine singular Instrumental takes '-ым/-им' for adjectives and '-ом/-ем' for nouns, producing 'опытным врачом'.

5Complete the sentence with the correct Accusative masculine singular form: 'Я вчера видел ______ (ваш преподаватель) в библиотеке.'

A.вашего преподавателя

B.ваш преподаватель

C.вашему преподавателю

D.вашим преподавателем

Explanation: For animate masculine nouns in Russian, the Accusative singular form is identical to the Genitive singular form. Therefore, 'ваш преподаватель' becomes 'вашего преподавателя'.

6Which prepositional phrase completes the location sentence: 'Мы стоим на ______ (высокий курган)'?

A.высокий курган

B.высоком кургане

C.высокого кургана

D.высоким курганом

Explanation: The preposition 'на' expressing location (where?) requires the Prepositional case. Masculine singular adjectives take '-ом' and hard nouns take '-е', yielding 'высоком кургане'.

7What is the correct Genitive plural form following the numeral 5 in: 'В классе учится пять ______ (девочка)'?

A.девочки

B.девочкам

C.девочек

D.девочками

Explanation: Quantifying numerals 5 and above require the Genitive plural case. The feminine noun 'девочка' loses its final vowel and inserts a fleeting vowel '-е-' between consonant stems, forming 'девочек'.

8In the impersonal sentence expressing age '______ (Маша) исполнилось шестнадцать лет', which case is used for Маша?

A.Машу

B.Маши

C.Машей

D.Маше

Explanation: Age expressions in Russian are constructed impersonally with the person whose age is stated put in the Dative case. The feminine noun 'Маша' in Dative singular ends in '-е', giving 'Маше'.

9Which Instrumental case phrase completes: 'Отец пошёл на прогулку с ______ (маленький сын)'?

A.маленьким сыном

B.маленького сына

C.маленькому сыну

D.маленький сын

Explanation: The preposition 'с' meaning 'together with' requires the Instrumental case. Masculine singular adjectives take '-им' after soft/guttural stems and nouns take '-ом', producing 'маленьким сыном'.

10Which case and phrase complete the time duration expression: 'Мы прожили в Москве ______ (целый год)'?

A.целого года

B.целый год

C.целому году

D.целым годом

Explanation: Duration of time without a preposition ('for a whole year') is expressed using the Accusative case. Since 'год' is inanimate masculine, its Accusative form is identical to the Nominative: 'целый год'.
