Nursing Elites

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. Select the correct order of words to fit in the sentence structure: 'The nursing ___ put the Band- ___ on the wound to ___ the nurse.'

• A. aid, aide, aide
• B. aide, aid, aid
• C. aid, aide, aid
• D. aide, aid, aide

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct order of words to fit in the sentence structure is 'aide, aid, aid.' 'Aide' refers to a person who assists (nursing aide), while 'aid' refers to help or assistance (Band-aid and aid the nurse). Therefore, the sequence 'aide, aid, aid' correctly completes the sentence. Choices A, C, and D have the incorrect order of words that do not fit the sentence context.

3. What does Audible mean?

• A. Impossible to hear
• B. Able to be heard
• C. Visible
• D. Silent

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Able to be heard.' Audible refers to something that can be heard. Choice A, 'Impossible to hear,' is the opposite of the meaning of audible. Choice C, 'Visible,' is unrelated as it pertains to sight, not hearing. Choice D, 'Silent,' is also not correct as it refers to the absence of sound, which is different from something being able to be heard.

4. What is the best description of the verb emit?

• A. To discharge
• B. To exclude
• C. To dismiss
• D. To moderate

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The best description of the verb emit is 'to discharge.' Emit means to produce and release something such as a sound, odor, or substance. Discharge is synonymous with emit in this context as it conveys the idea of releasing or sending out something, which aligns with the meaning of emit. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect. 'To exclude' means to deny access or prevent from entering, which is not the same as emit. 'To dismiss' means to remove from consideration or to let go, which is different from emitting. 'To moderate' means to make or become less extreme, intense, or severe, which is not the same as emitting or releasing something.

5. He tried to remember the names of all the people who were there that night.

• A. that
• B. who
• C. which
• D. whom

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In this context, 'who' is the correct relative pronoun to refer to people. 'That' is used for things, 'which' is used for animals or things, and 'whom' is an object pronoun, not needed in this sentence. Therefore, 'who' is the most appropriate choice.
