1. Which of the following best describes the term monochromatic?

• A. having one color
• B. having many parts
• C. having a lot of time
• D. having too much heat

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The term 'monochromatic' refers to something that has only one color. Choice A, 'having one color,' is the correct description for monochromatic. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as 'monochromatic' does not mean 'having many parts,' 'having a lot of time,' or 'having too much heat.' Monochromatic specifically conveys the idea of consisting of or using only one color, making Choice A the correct answer.

2. Which of the following is the complete subject of the following sentence? All of Shannon’s family and friends helped her to celebrate her 50th birthday at Café Sorrento.

• A. Family and friends
• B. All
• C. All of Shannon’s family and friends
• D. Shannon’s family and friends

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The complete subject in the sentence is 'All of Shannon’s family and friends.' This phrase encompasses the entirety of the group involved in celebrating Shannon’s 50th birthday at Café Sorrento. It includes both her family and friends collectively, highlighting the full extent of individuals who participated in the celebration. The term 'All of Shannon’s family and friends' is essential for providing a comprehensive subject that covers everyone who contributed to making the event special. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not capture the complete scope of individuals involved in the birthday celebration, unlike choice C which encompasses both Shannon’s family and friends.

3. Identify the noun clause in the sentence: 'My biggest fear is that I wouldn't live life to the fullest.'

• A. 'My biggest fear'
• B. 'that I wouldn't live life to the fullest'
• C. 'life'
• D. 'the fullest'

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B, 'that I wouldn't live life to the fullest.' This clause functions as the object of the verb 'is,' making it a noun clause. Noun clauses act as nouns within a sentence, often functioning as subjects, objects, or complements. Choice A ('My biggest fear') is a noun phrase, not a clause. Choice C ('life') and Choice D ('the fullest') are singular nouns and not clauses.

4. Which of the following suffixes would change the verb 'manage' into an adjective?

• A. -ed
• B. -ible
• C. -able
• D. -er

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct suffix to change the verb 'manage' into an adjective is '-able.' When added to 'manage,' it forms the adjective 'manageable,' which means capable of being managed. Choice A ('-ed') is a past participle suffix, not an adjective-forming suffix. Choice B ('-ible') is used to form adjectives meaning 'capable of' but is not the correct choice in this context. Choice D ('-er') is typically used to form agent nouns rather than adjectives.

5. Write a research report about a national park in the United States that is experiencing threats.

• A. Florida's Everglades National Park is threatened with a rising sea level as restoration efforts lag.
• B. The Grand Canyon is a steep-sided canyon carved by the Colorado River in Arizona, United States.
• C. Every year someone falls over the edge of Going-to-the-Sun Road at Glacier National Park.
• D. My visit to Acadia National Park last summer was one of the most interesting trips I've ever taken.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Choice A is the correct answer as it directly addresses the writing prompt by focusing on a specific threat faced by a national park in the United States, which is the rising sea level affecting Florida's Everglades National Park. This choice provides a clear thesis statement for a research report on the topic. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect. Choice B provides general information about the Grand Canyon but does not discuss any threats it is facing. Choice C is not relevant to the prompt as it talks about accidents on a specific highway within Glacier National Park rather than broader threats to the park itself. Choice D is about a personal experience at Acadia National Park and does not address any threats the park may be experiencing.
