1. Identify the grammatically correct sentence.

• A. Which one do you want?
• B. Pick the one you want.
• C. Whose one do you want?
• D. Who do you want?

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct sentence is 'Which one do you want?' Choice A is grammatically correct as it forms a question using 'which' to inquire about a specific choice. Choices B, C, and D contain errors in phrasing or grammar. Choice B includes a misspelling of 'want,' choice C uses 'whose' incorrectly, and choice D incorrectly combines 'who' and 'is' without proper context.

2. The blue whale is the largest animal _________ the world.

• A. In
• B. On
• C. Of
• D. At

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'B: On.' The phrase 'on the world' is incorrect. The preposition 'on' is used to indicate position or location, making it the appropriate choice in this context. Therefore, the correct sentence should read: 'The blue whale is the largest animal on the world.' Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because 'in,' 'of,' and 'at' are not suitable prepositions to describe the blue whale's size in relation to the world.

3. He ___________ football games.

• A. Never almost attends
• B. Almost attends never
• C. Attends almost never
• D. Almost never attends

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Almost never attends.' In English, adverbs like 'almost' usually come before the main verb in a sentence. In this case, the adverb 'almost' should precede the verb 'attends.' Therefore, the correct word order is 'Almost never attends,' indicating that he rarely goes to football games. Choices A, B, and C have incorrect word order for the adverb 'almost' in relation to the verb 'attends,' making them grammatically incorrect and not conveying the intended meaning.

4. Which word is not spelled correctly in the context of the following sentence? To succeed in this position, it is necessary to manage people well.

• A. succeed
• B. position
• C. necessary
• D. manage

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The word 'manage' is misspelled as 'menage' in the sentence. The correct spelling of the word is 'manage.' Therefore, the correct answer is 'D: manage.' Choices A, B, and C are all spelled correctly in the context of the sentence.

5. Select the phrase that makes the following sentence grammatically correct. There is a fountain ______ the driveway and the main entrance.

• A. among
• B. between
• C. by way of
• D. in conjunction with

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct preposition to use in this sentence to indicate the position of the fountain in relation to the driveway and the main entrance is 'between.' 'Between' conveys that the fountain is positioned centrally or in the middle of the driveway and the main entrance, making it the most suitable phrase to complete the sentence correctly. The other options do not accurately describe the fountain's position between two distinct locations, making them grammatically incorrect choices for this sentence.
