• A. To ignore something
• B. To stick to something
• C. To go against something
• D. To pull apart

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'To stick to something.' Adhere means to stay attached or stick to something. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect. Choice A 'To ignore something' is the opposite of adhere, choice C 'To go against something' means to oppose rather than stick to, and choice D 'To pull apart' is the opposite of sticking together.

2. What does 'Flushed' refer to?

• A. Swollen
• B. Reddened or ruddy appearance
• C. Discolored
• D. Pale

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Reddened or ruddy appearance.' When someone is flushed, it means they have a red or ruddy complexion, often due to embarrassment, anger, or a physical reaction. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because 'flushed' specifically refers to a red or ruddy appearance, not swelling, discoloration, or paleness.

3. What does 'Cease' mean?

• A. Start
• B. Come to an end
• C. Pause
• D. Skip

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Come to an end.' Cease means to stop or come to an end. Choice A, 'Start,' is the opposite of what Cease means. Choice C, 'Pause,' implies a temporary stop, which is not the same as coming to an end. Choice D, 'Skip,' means to omit or bypass, which is different from the meaning of Cease.

4. What does 'Aggregate' mean?

• A. A part of the whole
• B. A sum total of many things
• C. A small fraction
• D. A gradual reduction

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'A sum total of many things.' Aggregate refers to the total or sum of different elements or components. Choice A, 'A part of the whole,' is incorrect as aggregate does not refer to just a part but the whole combined. Choice C, 'A small fraction,' is incorrect as aggregate denotes a larger amount, not a small fraction. Choice D, 'A gradual reduction,' is incorrect as aggregate does not imply reduction but rather accumulation or combination.

5. HPV is likely to involve the ___________.

• A. skull and spine
• B. mucous membranes
• C. kidneys
• D. heart

Correct answer: B

Rationale: HPV, which stands for Human Papillomavirus, is a virus that commonly affects the skin and mucous membranes. It primarily targets the genital area but can also infect the mouth and throat through oral-genital contact. Therefore, the most likely involvement of HPV is with the mucous membranes, making option B the correct choice. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because HPV does not typically affect the skull, spine, kidneys, or heart.
