1. What does 'Excess' mean?

• A. Less than what is needed or usual
• B. More than what is needed or usual
• C. Equal to the amount needed
• D. Below average

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'More than what is needed or usual.' Excess refers to an amount that surpasses what is required or typical. Choice A is incorrect because 'less than what is needed or usual' is the opposite of excess. Choice C is incorrect as 'equal to the amount needed' does not imply excess. Choice D is incorrect as 'below average' does not capture the essence of excess.

2. The physician started to perform the operation, but the patient was not yet completely _____ anesthesia.

• A. under
• B. within
• C. with
• D. over

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'under' as it is commonly used to describe the state of being affected by anesthesia. The patient is 'under' anesthesia, not 'within,' 'with,' or 'over' it. 'Within' typically refers to being inside something, 'with' indicates being accompanied by something, and 'over' suggests being above or on top of something. Therefore, in the context of the sentence, 'under' is the most appropriate choice.

3. Medicine that is given in inhalant form is ___________.

• A. dissolved
• B. injected
• C. taken orally
• D. breathed in

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Medicine that is given in inhalant form is intended to be breathed in, typically through the mouth or nose. This allows the medication to reach the lungs directly and be absorbed into the bloodstream quickly. Examples of medications given in inhalant form include inhalers used for conditions like asthma and nebulizers for respiratory treatments. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because medicine in inhalant form is not dissolved, injected, or taken orally; instead, it is inhaled to reach the lungs.

4. What is the meaning of Regulations?

• A. Rules for Conduct
• B. Official Standards
• C. Personal Guidelines
• D. Suggestions

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Regulations refer to rules or directives established by authorities to govern conduct or actions. Therefore, the correct answer is A - 'Rules for Conduct.' Choice B, 'Official Standards,' is incorrect as regulations go beyond just setting standards to include specific rules for behavior. Choice C, 'Personal Guidelines,' is incorrect as regulations are not individualized but are generally applicable rules. Choice D, 'Suggestions,' is incorrect as regulations are mandatory and carry legal weight, unlike suggestions which are optional and not binding.

5. What is the meaning of Gender?

• A. A medical condition
• B. Sex of an individual
• C. Emotional state
• D. A psychological term

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Gender refers to the biological and social characteristics that define male and female identities. It is not a medical condition, emotional state, or psychological term. The term 'gender' specifically relates to the sex of an individual, distinguishing between traits associated with being male or female. Therefore, the correct answer is B.
