1. Place the four words in alphabetical order.

• A. Assemble, assembled, assembling, assembly
• B. Assembly, assemble, assembled, assembling
• C. Assemble, assembly, assembling, assembled
• D. Assemble, assembly, assembled, assembling

Correct answer: C

Rationale: In alphabetical order, 'Assemble, assembly, assembling, assembled' is correct. The alphabetical order is determined by the first letter of each word. The correct sequence starts with 'Assemble,' followed by 'assembly,' then 'assembling,' and finally 'assembled.' Choice A, B, and D do not follow the correct alphabetical order as the words are not arranged alphabetically.

2. Which phrase best completes the sentence: 'Despite _____, he managed to complete the race.'

• A. his injury
• B. his condition
• C. his pain
• D. his fatigue

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'A: his injury.' In the context of completing a race, an injury would be a significant obstacle to overcome. While choices B, C, and D could also pose challenges, an injury is the most severe hindrance that would make completing a race particularly difficult. His condition, pain, or fatigue may affect performance, but they are not as directly impactful as an injury in this scenario.

3. Select the meaning of the word 'dilation' in the sentence: 'The laboring mother was at 50% dilation.'

• A. Blood pressure
• B. Cervical opening
• C. Birth process
• D. Exhumation

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In the context provided, 'dilation' refers to the widening or opening of the cervix during labor as the woman progresses towards childbirth. Choice A, 'Blood pressure,' is incorrect as dilation does not relate to blood pressure. Choice C, 'Birth process,' is too broad and does not specifically define the term 'dilation.' Choice D, 'Exhumation,' is unrelated and does not fit the context of the sentence.

4. Select the meaning of the underlined word in the following sentence. Apply the gel on the gingival margin around the selected teeth using the blunt-tipped applicator included in the package.

• A. Edge
• B. Grease
• C. Incisor
• D. Cavity

Correct answer: A

Rationale: In this context, the word 'margin' refers to the border or edge of the gums around the teeth. The gel is supposed to be applied on the gingival margin, which means on the edge or border of the gums near the selected teeth. Choice B, 'Grease,' is incorrect as it does not relate to the application of gel on the gums. Choice C, 'Incisor,' refers to a type of tooth and is unrelated to the context of applying gel on the gingival margin. Choice D, 'Cavity,' is also unrelated as it refers to a decayed area in a tooth and not the border of the gums.

5. What does the word 'furnished' mean in the context of the apartment?

• A. Fully renovated
• B. Equipped with furniture
• C. Includes utilities
• D. Has modern decor

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In real estate, when an apartment is described as 'furnished,' it means that it comes equipped with furniture. This typically includes essential items like beds, sofas, dining tables, and more. Therefore, 'Equipped with furniture' is the correct meaning of 'furnished' in this context. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because being 'furnished' specifically refers to the presence of furniture in the apartment, not renovation status, utilities, or decor style.
