1. What does it mean when an apartment is advertised as being furnished?

• A. It is equipped with articles of furniture
• B. It has a high level of decor
• C. It includes utilities like water and electricity
• D. It is fully renovated

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Choice A, 'It is equipped with articles of furniture,' correctly defines a furnished apartment. When an apartment is advertised as furnished, it means that it comes with essential furniture such as beds, tables, chairs, and other necessary items. Choice B is incorrect because being furnished does not necessarily relate to the decor level of the apartment. Choice C is incorrect as utilities like water and electricity are not typically included in the term 'furnished.' Choice D is also incorrect because being furnished does not imply that the apartment is fully renovated, which refers to structural improvements rather than furniture.

2. Choose the meaning of the word 'sanctioned' in the following sentence: 'The professor sanctioned our field trip to the chemistry lab.'

• A. Organized
• B. Deterred
• C. Neglected
• D. Authorized

Correct answer: D

Rationale: In this context, the word 'sanctioned' means to authorize or approve. The sentence indicates that the professor gave permission for the field trip to the chemistry lab, which aligns with the meaning of 'authorized.' Choices A, B, and C are incorrect. 'Organized' does not fit the context as the sentence is about granting approval, not arranging. 'Deterred' means to discourage, which is the opposite of what the professor did. 'Neglected' means failed to care for or pay attention to, which is unrelated to the professor approving the field trip.

3. The number of people _____ from other counties to the United States has caused a shift in unemployment in the textile market.

• A. Emigrating
• B. Immigrating
• C. Migrating
• D. Emigrated

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Immigrating' because it refers to people coming to live permanently in a foreign country. 'Emigrating' (Choice A) means leaving one's own country to settle permanently in another, which does not fit the context of people coming into the United States. 'Migrating' (Choice C) is a general term for moving from one place to another without emphasizing the aspect of settling in a new country. 'Emigrated' (Choice D) is the past tense of emigrate and does not convey the ongoing action of people moving to the United States.

4. What does the quoted word 'fundamental' mean in the following sentence?

• A. Appropriate
• B. Underlying
• C. Dosage
• D. Basic

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'D: Basic.' In this context, 'fundamental' means basic or essential, referring to the core or foundational dissimilarity between the two medications. Choice A, 'Appropriate,' is incorrect as it does not reflect the meaning of 'fundamental' in this sentence. Choice B, 'Underlying,' is incorrect because although it is related, it does not capture the primary or essential nature of the difference being discussed. Choice C, 'Dosage,' is unrelated to the meaning of 'fundamental' and does not align with the context of the sentence.

5. Which reflexive pronoun correctly completes the sentence? 'When a person finds ___ in a stressful situation, it helps to breathe deeply.'

• A. Themselves
• B. Itself
• C. Yourself
• D. Oneself

Correct answer: D

Rationale: 'Oneself' is the correct reflexive pronoun to use when referring to an unspecified person. In this sentence, 'oneself' is used to indicate any individual without specifying gender or number. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they refer to specific or known individuals, which does not fit the context of the sentence.
