1. What is the emotional state of the man after becoming an invalid?

• A. Dejected
• B. Shamefully fearful
• C. Injured
• D. Symbiotic

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Dejected. After becoming INVALID, one is likely to feel dejected, meaning sad and disheartened due to feeling invalidated or rejected. It is a common emotional response to a situation where one's worth or validity is questioned or denied. Option B, shamefully fearful, does not directly relate to the emotional state associated with being an invalid. Option C, injured, does not capture the emotional aspect but rather focuses on the physical condition. Option D, symbiotic, refers to a mutually beneficial relationship between two different organisms and is not relevant to the emotional state of an individual after becoming an invalid.

2. Which phrase should be moved to improve sentence clarity? 'He opened the door slowly, trying not to wake the baby.'

• A. 'Trying not to wake the baby,' he slowly opened the door
• B. 'He opened the door,' trying not to wake the baby
• C. 'He opened the door slowly,' trying not to wake the baby
• D. 'Slowly trying not to wake the baby,' he opened the door

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Placing 'trying not to wake the baby' at the beginning as in option A clarifies the purpose of the action right away, improving the sentence's flow.

3. An apartment is advertised as being furnished. What does the sentence mean?

• A. It is equipped with articles
• B. It has just been repainted
• C. The first month’s rent must be paid in advance
• D. The utility bills are included in the rental cost

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'It is equipped with articles.' In real estate terms, when an apartment is advertised as 'furnished', it means that the apartment comes equipped with furniture and other necessary items. This choice directly reflects the meaning of a furnished apartment. The other choices are incorrect because being furnished does not imply that the apartment has just been repainted (B), requires the first month’s rent to be paid in advance (C), or includes utility bills in the rental cost (D).

4. A note in the patients' medical record states anticipatory grieving, which patient situations below explains this type of grieving?

• A. A patient who has just given birth to twins following a long labor
• B. A patient who will have their left leg amputated below the knee tomorrow
• C. A patient experiencing pain during a physical therapy session
• D. A patient who will be discharged tomorrow after two months of being hospitalized

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Anticipatory grieving occurs when an individual experiences the emotional response to the anticipated loss before it occurs. In this case, the patient who will have their left leg amputated below the knee tomorrow is facing a significant loss and is likely to be experiencing anticipatory grieving. This situation involves anticipating the physical and emotional challenges that will come with the loss of a body part, leading to emotional distress and grief before the actual amputation takes place. Choices A, C, and D do not involve an impending significant loss that would typically trigger anticipatory grieving. Giving birth, experiencing pain during physical therapy, and being discharged from the hospital, while potentially stressful situations, do not inherently involve the anticipation of a significant loss.

5. Everyone thought that was the __________ test of the whole course.

• A. Most easiest
• B. Most easy
• C. Easiest
• D. Easy

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'Easiest.' The word 'easiest' is the correct superlative form of 'easy,' which is used to compare one item against others in terms of degree. 'Most easiest' and 'most easy' are grammatically incorrect. Choice D, 'Easy,' is incorrect as it is not a superlative form and does not convey a comparison of the test against others in the course.
