1. The US __________ most of its silicone chips from Japan and China to stay competitive in the tech market.

• A. Deports
• B. Exports
• C. Reports
• D. Imports

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The US imports most of its silicone chips from Japan and China, indicating that the silicone chips are being brought into the US from these countries. 'Imports' refers to the act of bringing goods or services into one country from another, which accurately describes the scenario described in the question. The other choices are incorrect: 'Deports' means expelling individuals from a country, 'Exports' mean sending goods to another country, and 'Reports' mean providing information or data.

2. To cauterize a wound is to ___________.

• A. soothe it
• B. cover it
• C. stitch it
• D. burn it

Correct answer: D

Rationale: To cauterize a wound is to use heat or a chemical to burn the wound in order to stop bleeding and prevent infection. This process helps seal off blood vessels and close the wound by burning the affected tissue. Choice A, 'soothe it,' is incorrect because cauterization involves burning the wound, which is a controlled way of treating it, not soothing it. Choice B, 'cover it,' is incorrect as cauterization involves a more aggressive approach than just covering the wound. Choice C, 'stitch it,' is incorrect as it refers to using sutures to close a wound, which is different from cauterization that involves burning the wound to seal it.

3. What does respite mean?

• A. Rest
• B. Relief
• C. Pain
• D. Burden

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Respite means a period of rest or relief. It refers to a temporary break or relief from something challenging or stressful. It is a time to relax and recharge, providing a sense of ease or comfort rather than pain or burden. 'Rest' (choice A) is related to respite but does not capture the aspect of temporary relief. 'Pain' (choice C) and 'Burden' (choice D) are opposite in meaning to respite, as they signify discomfort and heaviness, respectively, which are not synonymous with the concept of respite.

4. What is the best description for an assembled product in the following sentence? The provisions apply to any “electronic product,” which is defined as any manufactured or assembled product (or component, part, or accessory of such product) that, when in operation, (i) contains or acts as part of an electronic circuit and (ii) emits electronic product radiation.

• A. A product that is collected
• B. A product that is legislated
• C. A product that is put together
• D. A product that is agreed upon

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The best description for an assembled product in the given sentence is "a product that is put together," as assembling refers to the action of putting together various parts or components to create a finished product. The sentence mentions that the provisions apply to any "assembled product" along with components, parts, or accessories of the product. Choice A, 'A product that is collected,' is incorrect as collecting does not imply assembling. Choice B, 'A product that is legislated,' is incorrect as legislation is related to laws and regulations, not the physical process of assembling. Choice D, 'A product that is agreed upon,' is incorrect as agreeing upon a product is unrelated to the physical act of assembling it.

5. The patient made a ritual of arranging the food on his plate. Which word best describes the patient's behavior of arranging the food on his plate?

• A. Formal
• B. Ritualistic
• C. Formalizing
• D. Ritual

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The word 'ritualistic' is an adjective that describes actions or behaviors performed in a habitual or symbolic manner, often resembling a ritual. In this context, it best describes the patient's behavior of repeatedly and meticulously arranging food on the plate. 'Formal' (Choice A) does not capture the habitual or symbolic aspect of the behavior. 'Formalizing' (Choice C) is a verb form and does not describe the behavior itself. 'Ritual' (Choice D) is a noun and does not fit as well here since the question is asking for an adjective to describe the behavior.
