1. What does Collusion refer to?

• A. Agreement
• B. Conspiracy
• C. Misunderstanding
• D. Honesty

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Collusion refers to a secret agreement or conspiracy, often for deceitful or illegal purposes. While choices A, C, and D may involve some level of agreement or understanding, collusion specifically implies a secretive and usually dishonest arrangement, making choices A, C, and D incorrect in this context.

2. When you add sugar to it, your cup of coffee becomes not only sweet but also _____.

• A. fattening
• B. healthy
• C. rich
• D. flavorful

Correct answer: A

Rationale: When sugar is added to coffee, it not only becomes sweet but also 'fattening' due to the extra calories added. The term 'fattening' specifically refers to the potential weight gain associated with consuming sugary drinks. Choices B, C, and D do not accurately describe the impact of adding sugar to coffee. 'Healthy' is incorrect because adding sugar typically does not make a beverage healthier. 'Rich' and 'flavorful' may suggest taste qualities but do not address the caloric impact of sugar.

3. If someone is disseminating information, what are they doing?

• A. Hiding it
• B. Broadcasting it
• C. Destroying it
• D. Withholding it

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Broadcasting it.' Disseminating information means spreading or sharing it widely to reach a broader audience. Choice A, 'Hiding it,' is incorrect as disseminating involves making information known, not concealing it. Choice C, 'Destroying it,' is incorrect as disseminating means to distribute, not to eliminate. Choice D, 'Withholding it,' is incorrect because withholding information means keeping it back rather than sharing it openly.

4. The ankle bone may be called the ___________.

• A. talus
• B. talon
• C. fascia
• D. fascine

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The ankle bone is commonly known as the talus, which is a prominent bone in the human foot that forms the lower part of the ankle joint. It plays a crucial role in supporting body weight and allowing the foot to move in various directions. The terms talon and fascine are not accurate when referring to the ankle bone. Talon usually refers to the claw of a bird or animal, while fascine is a bundle of sticks used in construction or military engineering. Fascia, on the other hand, is a band of connective tissue and not a bone.

5. What is a diagnostic test?

• A. One that locates a cure
• B. One that looks for a cause
• C. One that examines the skin
• D. One that is performed on doctors

Correct answer: B

Rationale: A diagnostic test is a medical test or procedure performed to identify the cause of a health problem, disease, or condition. It helps healthcare providers make accurate diagnoses and determine appropriate treatments for patients. Choice A is incorrect because a diagnostic test does not locate a cure but rather aims to identify the cause of a health issue. Choice C is incorrect as a diagnostic test is not specifically for examining the skin but can involve various types of tests on different parts of the body. Choice D is incorrect as a diagnostic test is not performed on doctors but on patients to diagnose their health conditions.
