1. What is the correct way to write "25th anniversary" as a word?

• A. Twenty-fiveth anniversary
• B. Twenty Fiveth Anniversary
• C. Twenty fifth anniversary
• D. twenty-fifth anniversary

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Ordinals (numbers with "th", "st", "nd", etc.) are generally written as words when used before nouns. Option (d) is correct.

2. Unlike a traditional comic book, a graphic novel is released as one single publication, either in the form of one long story or an anthology. Which of the following is an appropriate synonym for traditional as it is used in the sentence?

• A. old-fashioned
• B. conventional
• C. expensive
• D. popular

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In this context, 'traditional' is used to describe the characteristic of a comic book that follows long-established conventions. The word 'conventional' is the most appropriate synonym because it implies something that follows standard or established practices. 'Old-fashioned' suggests something outdated, which is not the intended meaning here. 'Expensive' and 'popular' do not relate to the context of how comic books are released and do not align with the meaning of 'traditional' in this specific context.

3. Which of the following root words would be used in a word related to the body?

• A. corp
• B. auto
• C. man
• D. bio

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The root word 'corp' is related to the body as it comes from the Latin word 'corpus,' meaning body. Words like 'corporal' and 'corporation' are derived from this root, linking them to the body in some manner. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect. 'Auto' relates to self or automatic, 'man' pertains to human or hand, and 'bio' is associated with life or living organisms, none of which directly signify the body.

4. Which of the following is the plural form of the word 'chief'?

• A. chiefs
• B. chieves
• C. chievs
• D. chiefes

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'chiefs.' 'Chief' follows the standard rule for forming the plural by adding an 's' at the end. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not follow the standard pluralization rule for the word 'chief.' 'Chieves,' 'chievs,' and 'chiefes' are not valid plural forms of 'chief.'

5. His skill on the soccer field made him an _______ member of the team.

• A. indispensable
• B. indispensable
• C. indispensable
• D. indispensable

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct spelling is 'indispensable,' which means absolutely necessary. In this context, it implies that his skill on the soccer field is crucial and vital for the team's success. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect due to misspellings that do not accurately convey the intended meaning.
