Nursing Elites

1. Another word for SITE is?

• A. Severity
• B. Location
• C. Fortunate
• D. Appearance

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Another word for 'SITE' is 'Location.' In this context, 'site' typically refers to a place or area, making 'Location' the most appropriate synonym among the given choices. Choice A, 'Severity,' does not relate to the meaning of 'site' as a place or area. Choice C, 'Fortunate,' and Choice D, 'Appearance,' are also unrelated to the concept of 'site,' making them incorrect choices.

2. What does the term 'counterfeit' mean?

• A. Real
• B. Fake
• C. Accurate
• D. Honest

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Fake.' Counterfeit refers to something that is not genuine or a copy made to deceive. Choice A, 'Real,' is incorrect because counterfeit items are not real. Choice C, 'Accurate,' is incorrect as counterfeit implies inaccuracy. Choice D, 'Honest,' is incorrect as counterfeit items are deceptive and not honest.

3. What word describes a trip to Hawaii that a vacationer FELT was too short?

• A. Ponderous
• B. Salacious
• C. Ephemeral
• D. Erudite

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The word 'ephemeral' means lasting for a very short time. In this context, a vacationer feeling that their trip to Hawaii was too short implies that they found it to be brief or fleeting, making 'ephemeral' the most suitable choice among the options provided. Ponderous means slow and clumsy; salacious means obscene or lustful; erudite means showing great knowledge or learning. These words do not convey the idea of brevity or shortness, unlike 'ephemeral,' which perfectly fits the scenario described.

4. In the address 'Mr. Ryan, 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., Washington, DC 20003,' which word is the salutation?

• A. 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
• B. 20003 (Area code)
• C. Ryan
• D. Mr.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'D - Mr.' The salutation is the formal title used before a person's name, which in this case is 'Mr.' Other choices are incorrect as '1600 Pennsylvania Ave.' is the street address, '20003' is the zip code, and 'Ryan' is the recipient's name.

5. If a doctor has an EXEMPLARY record, her work is ______

• A. Ordinary
• B. Praiseworthy
• C. Disappointing
• D. Confusing

Correct answer: B

Rationale: An exemplary record signifies work that is praiseworthy, exceptional, or outstanding. Therefore, the correct answer is 'B: Praiseworthy.' Choices 'A: Ordinary,' 'C: Disappointing,' and 'D: Confusing' do not align with the meaning of having an exemplary record and are thus incorrect.
