    I was under the belief that 'She has been studying...' was past perfect continuous and that 'had been studying' was the pluperfect not perfect. Also in what way is 'a new puppy' incorrect use of the indefinite article? I am not convinced that it should not be I who am asking the questions.

    Identify the sentence with correct use of the preposition 'between':
    Your answer: She sat between her friends during the movie.

    Correct answer: The agreement is between the two companies.

    Identify the sentence with correct verb tense:
    Your answer: They will finish the project next week.
    Correct answer: She will go to the concert tomorrow.

    My answer in each case is equally correct. Similar issues concerning presented choices frequently occur with the Grammar Quiz.

    You need to check your knowledge of grammar before you check mine.. all 4 uses of the preposition "under" are acceptable!!

    "They adopted a cat" (4).. = this is also the indefinite article, an owl is also correct, yes but not the ONLY correct answer. "Him and I will attend the meeting" (10) isn't grammatically correct! It should be "he and I". So I should have 10/10.

    #8 has two correct sentences, but the quiz accepts only one of them.
    "She is reading an interesting novel." --- 'an' is the article, and is correct.
    "A cat is a pet." --- 'A' is the article, and is correct (in both places).

    Please be more careful, quiz designers!

    How is the following an incorrect use of the indefinite article: She needs an umbrella in the rain?

    Actually this quiz has another error with a subject-verb relation: The team of players "is" ready for the match. Because players is part the possessive objects of the singular team.

    #7 should be New York Times, as that is the proper name of the newspaper.
