1. 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.

2. 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.

3. Choose the meaning of the word 'coterie' in the following sentence: 'Julia and her coterie are often out at local clubs until the wee hours.'

• A. A close group of friends
• B. An extended family
• C. An engaged person
• D. A manager or director

Correct answer: A

Rationale: In this context, the word 'coterie' refers to a small group of people who share similar interests or activities, typically a close-knit circle of friends. The other choices are incorrect. 'An extended family' refers to relatives beyond the nuclear family, 'an engaged person' is someone committed to be married, and 'a manager or director' are job roles unrelated to the context of the sentence.

4. Precipitous is best defined as being ___________.

• A. damp
• B. gentle
• C. swift
• D. dull

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Precipitous is best defined as being swift, meaning sudden, rapid, or happening quickly. It is often used to describe a steep and very steep drop or rise. The word does not refer to being damp, gentle, or dull. 'Damp' means slightly wet, 'gentle' means mild or moderate, and 'dull' means lacking interest or excitement.

5. It is required that he _____ payment immediately.

• A. make
• B. sends
• C. sent
• D. deliver

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'make.' In this context, 'make' is the correct verb to use with 'payment.' The sentence structure requires a base form of the verb after 'required that.' Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as 'sends,' 'sent,' and 'deliver' do not match the structure needed in this sentence.
