1. What does 'External' refer to?

• A. Inside the body
• B. Located outside the body
• C. Exposed internally
• D. Near the skin

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The term 'External' refers to something that is located outside the body. In this context, it specifically denotes a position or location that is beyond the confines of the body's boundaries. Choice A is incorrect as 'External' means outside, not inside. Choice C is incorrect as it confuses the internal exposure with external positioning. Choice D is incorrect as 'External' does not necessarily mean near the skin, but rather outside the body.

2. What is the emotional state of the man after becoming an invalid?

• A. Dejected
• B. Shamefully fearful
• C. Injured
• D. Symbiotic

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Dejected. After becoming INVALID, one is likely to feel dejected, meaning sad and disheartened due to feeling invalidated or rejected. It is a common emotional response to a situation where one's worth or validity is questioned or denied. Option B, shamefully fearful, does not directly relate to the emotional state associated with being an invalid. Option C, injured, does not capture the emotional aspect but rather focuses on the physical condition. Option D, symbiotic, refers to a mutually beneficial relationship between two different organisms and is not relevant to the emotional state of an individual after becoming an invalid.

3. A UTI is likely to involve the ___________.

• A. bones
• B. throat
• C. stomach
• D. bladder

Correct answer: D

Rationale: A UTI (Urinary Tract Infection) is likely to involve the bladder. A urinary tract infection is an infection in any part of the urinary system, which includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. The most common type of UTI is a bladder infection where bacteria enter the bladder and cause inflammation and infection. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because a UTI specifically affects the urinary tract system and not the bones, throat, or stomach.

4. Which word means to suggest, to hint, to express indirectly?

• A. Imply
• B. Infer
• C. Opinion
• D. Latter

Correct answer: A

Rationale: 'Imply' means to suggest or indicate something indirectly. In this context, 'Infer' (choice B) is incorrect as it means to deduce or conclude information based on evidence and reasoning, not to suggest. 'Opinion' (choice C) refers to a personal view or judgment, not the act of suggesting indirectly. 'Latter' (choice D) means the second of two things mentioned.

5. The patients are under 'quarantine'. What does this mean?

• A. Confinement away from the general population
• B. A specialist’s care
• C. Experimental drug therapy
• D. Imprisonment in a rehabilitation unit

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'Confinement away from the general population.' Quarantine refers to keeping someone isolated from the general population to prevent the spread of disease. Choice B, 'A specialist’s care,' is incorrect as it refers to medical treatment by a specialist, not isolation. Choice C, 'Experimental drug therapy,' is incorrect as it involves the administration of new drugs for research purposes, not isolation. Choice D, 'Imprisonment in a rehabilitation unit,' is incorrect as it implies being detained in a rehabilitation facility, not isolation for health reasons.
