1. Which verb form correctly completes the sentence? 'The shopper was angry when he realized he could have ___ it cheaper at the other store.'

• A. Get
• B. Could have got
• C. Could have gotten
• D. Might have get

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 'C) Could have gotten.' In this sentence, the verb form 'gotten' is the correct past participle form of 'get,' indicating a missed opportunity in the past. Choice A is incorrect because 'get' is the base form of the verb, not the past participle. Choice B is incorrect as 'got' is the past tense, not the past participle. Choice D is incorrect because 'get' is the base form, and 'might have get' is not the correct structure for this sentence.

2. What does it mean when an apartment is advertised as being furnished?

• A. It is equipped with articles of furniture
• B. It has a high level of decor
• C. It includes utilities like water and electricity
• D. It is fully renovated

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Choice A, 'It is equipped with articles of furniture,' correctly defines a furnished apartment. When an apartment is advertised as furnished, it means that it comes with essential furniture such as beds, tables, chairs, and other necessary items. Choice B is incorrect because being furnished does not necessarily relate to the decor level of the apartment. Choice C is incorrect as utilities like water and electricity are not typically included in the term 'furnished.' Choice D is also incorrect because being furnished does not imply that the apartment is fully renovated, which refers to structural improvements rather than furniture.

3. After robbing the bank, _____.

• A. the thief fled
• B. he escaped
• C. they hid
• D. they fled

Correct answer: A

Rationale: After robbing the bank, 'the thief fled' is the correct choice as it logically follows the action of robbing a bank. The singular pronoun 'he' in choice B is not appropriate as 'the thief' is singular. Choices C and D use 'they,' which is a plural pronoun and does not agree with 'the thief,' making them grammatically incorrect.

4. What does Debilitating mean?

• A. Incapacitating
• B. Weakening
• C. Empowering
• D. Strengthening

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'Incapacitating.' Debilitating means causing incapacity or weakness, making choice A the most appropriate. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they represent the opposite of what debilitating means. Weakening (choice B), Empowering (choice C), and Strengthening (choice D) all convey a sense of increasing strength or ability, which is the opposite of the meaning of debilitating.

5. Which sentence is correct?

• A. The physician wrote a prescription for the needed medicine
• B. The physician wrote a recommendation for the needed medicine
• C. The physician wrote a report for the needed medication
• D. The physician wrote a subscription for the needed medication

Correct answer: A

Rationale: A prescription is a written order from a physician or other licensed health practitioner for the preparation and administration of a medication. In this context, 'prescription' is the correct term for the document written by a physician to authorize the dispensing of medication. The other options (B, C, D) use incorrect terms such as 'recommendation,' 'report,' and 'subscription,' which do not accurately convey the action of a physician prescribing medication. Therefore, choice A is the correct answer as it accurately describes the action taken by the physician.
