1. What is the best description of the term Gravid?

• A. Thin
• B. Expecting a child
• C. Infected
• D. Healing

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The term 'Gravid' means being pregnant or expecting a child. Therefore, the correct answer is B. Choice A, 'Thin,' is incorrect as it does not relate to the term Gravid. Choice C, 'Infected,' is also incorrect as it is not a relevant description of the term. Choice D, 'Healing,' is unrelated to the term Gravid and is therefore incorrect.

2. What does the word 'furnished' mean in the context of the apartment?

• A. Fully renovated
• B. Equipped with furniture
• C. Includes utilities
• D. Has modern decor

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In real estate, when an apartment is described as 'furnished,' it means that it comes equipped with furniture. This typically includes essential items like beds, sofas, dining tables, and more. Therefore, 'Equipped with furniture' is the correct meaning of 'furnished' in this context. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because being 'furnished' specifically refers to the presence of furniture in the apartment, not renovation status, utilities, or decor style.

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. When patients are being counseled, what is happening?

• A. They are being discharged
• B. They are being advised
• C. They are being neglected
• D. They are being comforted

Correct answer: B

Rationale: When patients are being counseled, they are being advised or guided. Counseling involves providing support, guidance, and advice to help patients cope with their challenges. Choice A is incorrect because counseling is not about discharging patients. Choice C is incorrect because counseling is the opposite of neglect; it is actively providing support. Choice D is incorrect because while comfort may be a part of counseling, the primary focus is on providing guidance and advice to address issues, not just comfort.

5. What does Consistency refer to?

• A. Color of a fluid
• B. Degree of viscosity, how thick or thin a fluid is
• C. Taste of a fluid
• D. Smell of a fluid

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Consistency refers to the degree of viscosity of a fluid, indicating how thick or thin it is. Viscosity is the resistance of a fluid to flow, and it determines its consistency. Choices A, color, C, taste, and D, smell, are not related to consistency. Color, taste, and smell are sensory attributes that do not define the physical property of consistency in fluids.
