1. Which adjective best completes the sentence?

• A. More greater
• B. Great
• C. Best
• D. More greatest

Correct answer: C

Rationale: 'Best' is the correct choice because it conveys the highest quality or degree in comparison, which is appropriate in this context. The sentence is discussing the opinion of coffee experts about a particular coffee blend, indicating that it is the most superior among the options. Choices A, B, and D are grammatically incorrect or redundant. 'More greater' is incorrect due to the redundant use of 'more' and 'greater.' 'Great' is a comparative form that does not fit the superlative context required. 'More greatest' is incorrect due to the unnecessary use of 'more' alongside 'greatest,' which is already a superlative form.

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

• A. Whom
• B. That
• C. Which
• D. Whose

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The word 'that' is the correct relative pronoun to use in this context to refer to the people who were present that night. 'Whom' is used for objects of a verb or preposition, 'which' is used for things, and 'whose' is a possessive pronoun.

3. Choose the meaning of the word 'yaw' in the following sentence: 'The robotic arm may yaw too much and need adjusting.'

• A. To gape open
• B. To move up and down
• C. To close tightly
• D. To move side to side

Correct answer: D

Rationale: In this sentence, the term 'yaw' refers to a movement where the robotic arm moves side to side. The context suggests that the arm is exhibiting too much of this side-to-side movement and requires adjustment to rectify the issue. Choice A, 'to gape open,' is incorrect as 'yaw' does not imply opening. Choice B, 'to move up and down,' is incorrect as 'yaw' specifically refers to side-to-side movement. Choice C, 'to close tightly,' is incorrect as it does not relate to the movement described in the sentence.

4. What does Dilute mean?

• A. To concentrate
• B. To make a liquid less concentrated
• C. To solidify
• D. To evaporate

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct definition of dilute is to make a liquid less concentrated. When a substance is diluted, it means it has been mixed with another substance to reduce its strength or concentration. Option A, 'To concentrate,' is the opposite of dilute. Option C, 'To solidify,' means to make or become hard or solid, which is unrelated to diluting a liquid. Option D, 'To evaporate,' means to change from a liquid to a vapor, also unrelated to diluting a liquid. Therefore, the correct answer is B.

5. What does it mean if a patient is lethargic?

• A. Active
• B. Exhausted
• C. Confused
• D. Restless

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Lethargic means feeling exhausted or sluggish. Being lethargic is the opposite of being active (choice A), confused (choice C), or restless (choice D). When a patient is lethargic, they lack energy and may appear tired or sluggish.
