1. 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.

2. Which statement indicates that the individual feels EMPATHY for the patient?

• A. I am also new to this town, so I understand how lost he feels here
• B. His symptoms are concerning and need to be addressed immediately
• C. He should follow the treatment plan strictly to get better
• D. I think he is exaggerating his pain to get attention

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Choice A, 'I am also new to this town, so I understand how lost he feels here,' demonstrates empathy towards the patient by showing the ability to relate to and understand the patient's feelings and experiences. Empathy involves understanding and sharing the feelings of another person, which is evident in this statement as the individual acknowledges and connects with the patient's emotional state. Choice B focuses on the urgency of addressing symptoms but lacks the emotional connection present in an empathetic response. Choice C emphasizes following a treatment plan without addressing the patient's emotional state. Choice D displays a lack of empathy by suggesting that the patient is exaggerating their pain for attention, showing a judgmental rather than understanding attitude.

3. 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.

4. What does the quoted word 'impervious' mean in the following sentence?

• A. Coping well
• B. Enjoying
• C. Not affected
• D. Very sensitive

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'Not affected.' In the context provided, 'impervious' means that the client is not affected by pain. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately capture the meaning of 'impervious' in this context. 'Coping well' implies dealing with pain effectively, 'enjoying' does not reflect being unaffected by pain, and 'very sensitive' is the opposite of what 'impervious' means.

5. What is another word for EXPEDITE?

• A. Transfer
• B. Rush
• C. Cancel
• D. Hold

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Rush. To expedite means to accelerate the progress or speed of something, to hasten or facilitate. 'Transfer' (choice A) means to move from one place to another, 'Cancel' (choice C) means to call off, and 'Hold' (choice D) means to keep or detain. Therefore, 'Rush' is the most appropriate synonym for expedite in this context.
