1. _______ having trouble with _______ new dog.

• A. There, their
• B. Their, there
• C. They’re, their
• D. Their, they’re

Correct answer: C

Rationale: In this sentence, the correct choices are 'They’re' and 'their.' 'They’re' is a contraction of 'they are,' which fits the context of the sentence as it suggests ownership of the dog. 'Their' is a possessive pronoun showing ownership. Choice A is incorrect as 'there' refers to a place and doesn't make sense in this context. Choice B is incorrect as the possessive pronoun 'their' should come before the noun 'dog'. Choice D is incorrect as 'they’re' should be used before the verb 'having trouble' to form a contraction for 'they are'.

2. Another word for the collarbone might be the ___________.

• A. cloaca
• B. cannula
• C. clavicle
• D. clavier

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Another word for the collarbone is the clavicle. The term 'clavicle' is commonly used in anatomy to refer to this bone that connects the arm to the rest of the body's skeleton. Choice A, 'cloaca,' is incorrect as it refers to a bodily cavity that serves as the opening for the intestinal, genital, and urinary tracts in many vertebrates. Choice B, 'cannula,' is incorrect as it refers to a tube inserted into a vein or body cavity to administer medication or drain fluid. Choice D, 'clavier,' is incorrect as it refers to a keyboard musical instrument.

3. What is the best description of an audit check?

• A. A restraint on appraisals
• B. A payment for inventory

• D. A review or inspection

Correct answer: D

Rationale: An audit check is a process of reviewing and inspecting financial records, transactions, or processes to ensure accuracy and compliance with established guidelines. It involves examining information systematically and thoroughly to verify its completeness and reliability. Option D, "A review or inspection," best describes an audit check. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not relate to the process of auditing financial records for accuracy and compliance.

4. Place the four words in alphabetical order.

• A. Assemble, assembled, assembling, assembly
• B. Assembly, assemble, assembled, assembling
• C. Assemble, assembly, assembling, assembled
• D. Assemble, assembly, assembled, assembling

Correct answer: C

Rationale: In alphabetical order, 'Assemble, assembly, assembling, assembled' is correct. The alphabetical order is determined by the first letter of each word. The correct sequence starts with 'Assemble,' followed by 'assembly,' then 'assembling,' and finally 'assembled.' Choice A, B, and D do not follow the correct alphabetical order as the words are not arranged alphabetically.

5. Choose the meaning of the word 'supplement' in the following sentence: 'Calcium pills may be used to supplement your diet.'

• A. Replace
• B. Add to
• C. Reflect
• D. Parallel

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In the context of the sentence, the word 'supplement' is used to mean adding something extra to enhance or complete the diet. Therefore, the meaning of the word is 'add to.' Choice A ('Replace') is incorrect because 'supplement' does not mean to substitute or exchange. Choice C ('Reflect') is incorrect because 'supplement' does not mean to mirror or show. Choice D ('Parallel') is incorrect because 'supplement' does not mean to correspond or be similar in a particular way.
