1. Which part of the sentence contains a typographical error?

• A. To a
• B. Very strong
• C. Being
• D. Went from

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. The phrase 'Went form' contains a typographical error. It should be 'went from' to indicate the change in condition correctly. Choice A 'To a,' choice B 'Very strong,' and choice C 'Being' are grammatically correct and do not contain any typographical errors in the given sentence.

2. Someone who is FRUSTRATED/ANNOYED is?

• A. Exacerbated
• B. Transient
• C. Lithe
• D. Terse

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The word 'exacerbated' means to make a problem, bad situation, or negative feeling worse. If someone is frustrated or annoyed, they are likely feeling worse due to a particular situation or circumstance. Choice B, 'transient,' means temporary or short-lived, which does not directly relate to the feeling of being frustrated or annoyed. Choice C, 'lithe,' means thin, supple, and graceful, which is not synonymous with being frustrated or annoyed. Choice D, 'terse,' means brief and to the point, which is unrelated to the context of feeling frustrated or annoyed.

3. Choose the meaning of the word projected in the following sentence: 'Treatment is projected to last three months or more.'

• A. Protruded
• B. Guaranteed
• C. Estimated
• D. Alleged

Correct answer: C

Rationale: In this context, 'projected' is used to indicate an estimation or prediction of the duration of the treatment. Therefore, it aligns closest in meaning to 'estimated.' Choice A, 'Protruded,' means to extend beyond or above a surface, which does not fit the context of the sentence. Choice B, 'Guaranteed,' means to provide assurance, which is not the intended meaning in the sentence. Choice D, 'Alleged,' means to claim without proof, which is not the correct interpretation in this context.

4. Choose the meaning of the word 'riddled' in the following sentence: 'The cavity, once opened, proved to be riddled with infection.'

• A. Challenged
• B. Overrun
• C. Separated
• D. Complete

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The word 'riddled' in this context means filled with or affected by (something undesirable) to a great degree, which aligns with the definition of 'overrun.' In this sentence, the cavity is described as being full of infection, indicating that the infection has spread extensively throughout. 'Challenged' (choice A) implies being tested or provoked, which is not the meaning conveyed by 'riddled.' 'Separated' (choice C) means divided or isolated, which does not fit the context of the sentence. 'Complete' (choice D) means finished or whole, which is the opposite of what is described in the sentence where the cavity is full of infection.

5. What does Vacuous mean?

• A. Empty
• B. Full
• C. Dense
• D. Bright

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'Empty.' Vacuous means lacking intelligence, empty-headed, or devoid of substance. Choice B, 'Full,' is incorrect as it is the opposite of vacuous. Choice C, 'Dense,' means closely compacted or stupid, not vacuous. Choice D, 'Bright,' means giving out or reflecting a lot of light, not vacuous.
