1. Select the word or phrase that makes the following sentence grammatically correct. Miguel and I are waiting to ___________ with the doctor.

• A. be met
• B. meeting
• C. met
• D. meet

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The verb 'meet' is the correct option in this context as it completes the sentence structure 'waiting to meet with the doctor' in a grammatically correct way. The sentence requires an infinitive verb form to convey the intended meaning of Miguel and I waiting to have a meeting or appointment with the doctor. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because 'be met' changes the meaning, 'meeting' is a gerund form which doesn't fit the sentence structure, and 'met' is a past tense form that doesn't match the present tense context of the sentence.

2. Select the word that makes the following sentence grammatically correct. One of the students ___________ completed the course.

• A. have
• B. has
• C. are
• D. is

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct word to use in this sentence is 'has' because 'One of the students' is singular, so it should be followed by a singular verb. The word 'has' is the correct singular form of the verb in this context. Choice A 'have' is plural, Choice C 'are' is also plural, and Choice D 'is' does not agree in number with the subject 'students'. Therefore, 'has' is the only correct choice here.

3. Select the word or phrase that makes the following sentence grammatically correct. After ___________ for an entire afternoon, the resident felt revitalized.

• A. having rest
• B. resting
• C. rested
• D. rest

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'B - resting' because it is the present participle form of the verb 'rest' and fits appropriately in the sentence structure 'After resting for an entire afternoon, the resident felt revitalized.' The present participle is used to show an ongoing action that happened before the feeling of revitalization. Choice A 'having rest' is incorrect as it does not convey the continuous action needed in this context. Choice C 'rested' is incorrect as it is the past tense form and does not match the tense of the sentence. Choice D 'rest' is incorrect as it is the base form of the verb and does not provide the needed -ing form for the sentence.

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 word or phrase that makes the following sentence grammatically correct. If Angela attends the seminar tomorrow, she ___________ the employee discount.

• A. gave
• B. gives
• C. will given
• D. will be given

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'D: will be given.' In the sentence, the future passive voice is needed to convey that Angela will receive the employee discount if she attends the seminar. 'Will be given' is the appropriate phrase to express this passive construction. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not form the correct future passive structure required in the sentence.
