1. Which of the following types of writing would include a bibliography of sources at the end?

• A. An article for a school paper
• B. A research paper on the Great Migration
• C. A short story for a magazine
• D. A personal essay about someone's father

Correct answer: B

Rationale: A research paper typically includes a bibliography of sources to document the research conducted. In this case, a research paper on the Great Migration would require a bibliography to cite the sources used. Choices A, C, and D do not typically require a bibliography as they are not research-based and focus more on personal or fictional content.

2. Based on the evidence found, electrical stimulation may be a potential therapy for OSAS, warranting further clinical trial. Which type of document is this sentence most likely from?

• A. Motivational speech
• B. Business memo
• C. Scientific journal article
• D. Personal blog

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The sentence discusses evidence and clinical trials related to a specific therapy, indicating a scientific context. Scientific journal articles are known for presenting research findings, discussing evidence, and proposing further studies, making them the most suitable source for this type of information. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because a motivational speech is more focused on inspiring and encouraging, a business memo typically deals with internal communication in organizations, and a personal blog reflects individual opinions or experiences, none of which align with the content and tone of the sentence provided.

3. In the sentence, “We will depart as a class, but when we arrive we will split up into small groups,” which part(s) is/are prepositional phrase(s)?

• A. “as a class”
• B. “when we arrive”
• C. “into small groups”
• D. (a) and (c) but not (b)

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The prepositional phrases in the sentence are 'as a class' and 'into small groups,' making choices (a) and (c) correct. The phrase 'when we arrive' is not a prepositional phrase but rather a subordinate clause indicating a time. Prepositional phrases typically begin with a preposition (as, into) and end with a noun, pronoun, gerund, or clause. Therefore, the correct answer is option D, as it correctly identifies the prepositional phrases in the sentence.

4. How should the following sentence be correctly punctuated: 'She asked me if I wanted to go to the movies with her'?

• A. She asked me, if I wanted to go to the movies with her.
• B. She asked me: if I wanted to go to the movies with her?
• C. She asked me, if I wanted, to go to the movies with her.
• D. She asked me if I wanted to go to the movies with her.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because it uses a question mark within the quoted material as it is a direct question. In this case, the sentence is a reported question, so it does not need additional punctuation within the reported speech. Choice A is incorrect as it incorrectly adds a comma before 'if.' Choice B is incorrect because a colon is not appropriate before 'if' in this context. Choice C is incorrect as it adds an unnecessary comma after 'wanted.'

5. Select the correct words to complete the following sentence: I have ____________ due tomorrow.

• A. many homework
• B. many homeworks
• C. a lot of homework
• D. a lot of homeworks

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 'C: a lot of homework'. In this case, 'homework' is an uncountable noun, so it does not take a plural form like 'homeworks'. The phrase 'a lot of' is used to quantify uncountable nouns, making it the appropriate choice in this context. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because 'homework' should not be pluralized, and the phrase 'many' is not suitable for uncountable nouns.
