This comprehensive English model paper is specifically designed for candidates preparing for the Peoples Bank Management Trainee recruitment examination in Sri Lanka. The paper focuses entirely on English language proficiency, a critical component of banking aptitude tests.
The document contains five structured sections testing different grammar and communication skills: Section 1 requires candidates to identify and correct errors in eight sentences covering verb forms, prepositions, and possessives. Section 2 tests preposition usage (in, on, at, during, from, to) through ten fill-in-the-blank items. Section 3 presents ten sentences with various grammatical flaws for rewriting correctly, addressing subject-verb agreement, double negatives, uncountable nouns, and parallel structure. Section 4 focuses on irregular verb forms (arise/arose/arisen, awake/awoke/awoken, bend/bent/bent, lend/lent/lent, ride/rode/ridden, bet/bet/bet, burst/burst/burst) in present perfect and simple past contexts. Section 5 requires formal letter writing – a leave application to the Branch Manager requesting one week for pilgrimage (minimum 25 words).
This model paper is an essential resource for banking job seekers, coaching institutes, and self-learners aiming to master the English section of bank recruitment exams.
