1. Which of the following sentences is written in the passive voice?

• A. The homework was completed by the student
• B. The student completed the homework
• C. The teacher is grading the papers
• D. The store opens at 9 AM

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'The homework was completed by the student.' This sentence is in the passive voice because the subject (homework) is being acted upon by the student. In passive voice constructions, the subject receives the action rather than performing it. Choices B, C, and D are in active voice where the subject performs the action. In choice B, 'The student completed the homework,' the subject (student) is the one performing the action of completing the homework.

2. TO GATHER TOGETHER means to ?

• A. Semblance
• B. Assembly
• C. Appearance
• D. Assemble

Correct answer: D

Rationale: TO GATHER TOGETHER means to bring things or people together in one place. The word "assemble" is synonymous with gathering together and is the most appropriate choice among the given options.

3. Long before his death, Pablo Picasso became one of the most important artists in history.

• A. become
• B. became
• C. been
• D. had become

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Became.' In this sentence, we need the simple past tense 'became' to describe the action that occurred in the past. 'Become' (choice A) is incorrect as it is the base form of the verb and doesn't fit the sentence structure. 'Been' (choice C) is incorrect as it is the past participle and doesn't match the sentence context. 'Had become' (choice D) is unnecessary as the sentence doesn't require the past perfect tense.

4. Her mother asked her what she would do after she _____.

• A. graduated
• B. completes
• C. finishes
• D. finished

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'graduated.' In reported speech, the verb tense often shifts back, so 'graduated' (past tense) is the appropriate choice here. 'Completes' (present tense), 'finishes' (present tense), and 'finished' (past tense) are incorrect as they do not match the reported speech context where the verb tense typically shifts back. Therefore, 'graduated' is the most suitable choice to complete the sentence.

5. Everyone thought that was the __________ test of the whole course.

• A. Most easiest
• B. Most easy
• C. Easiest
• D. Easy

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'Easiest.' The word 'easiest' is the correct superlative form of 'easy,' which is used to compare one item against others in terms of degree. 'Most easiest' and 'most easy' are grammatically incorrect. Choice D, 'Easy,' is incorrect as it is not a superlative form and does not convey a comparison of the test against others in the course.
