Nursing Elites

1. Nurse Junko and _______ will review the patient’s chart.

• A. She
• B. Them
• C. Me
• D. Him

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'A: She.' In this sentence, 'She' is the correct pronoun to use as the subject since it refers to Nurse Junko, who is one of the individuals performing the action. 'Them' (choice B), 'Me' (choice C), and 'Him' (choice D) are incorrect as they do not match the subject of the sentence, which is Nurse Junko.

2. Identify the correct sentence structure.

• A. The cat sleeping on the mat
• B. The cat is sleeping on the mat
• C. The mat that the cat is sleeping on
• D. Sleeping on the mat is the cat

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct sentence structure is 'The cat is sleeping on the mat.' This is a complete and grammatically correct sentence following a standard subject-verb-object structure. 'The cat' is the subject, 'is sleeping' is the verb, and 'on the mat' is the prepositional phrase describing where the action is taking place. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect. Option A is a sentence fragment lacking a verb; option C is a dependent clause lacking a main clause, and option D has a subject-verb inversion making it awkward and incorrect.

3. There was no _____ for the way she treated her boyfriend.

• A. Alibi
• B. Rational
• C. Reasonable
• D. Justification

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'D: Justification.' Justification means showing that an action is reasonable or right. In this context, it implies that there was no valid reason or excuse for the way she treated her boyfriend. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect. An 'alibi' is an excuse to explain one's whereabouts during a crime, not applicable here. 'Rational' means based on reason or logic, which does not fit the context of the sentence. 'Reasonable' means fair and sensible, but the sentence suggests a lack of valid explanation rather than fairness or sensibility.

4. What does 'internal' mean?

• A. Near the surface of the body
• B. Located within the body
• C. Outside the body
• D. Far from the body

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Internal means located within the body. When something is described as internal, it refers to being inside the body or contained within the boundaries of an organism. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they describe locations that are either near the surface, outside, or far from the body, respectively, which are not the meanings of 'internal.'

5. Which word is NOT USED CORRECTLY? It sure isn't going to rain during the next playoff.

• A. Ain't
• B. During
• C. Sure
• D. Playoff

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. 'Ain't' is not grammatically correct in formal writing or speech; it should be 'isn't.' 'Ain't' is considered slang and is not appropriate for formal contexts. The other choices ('During,' 'Sure,' 'Playoff') are used correctly in the sentence.
