1. Which sentence contains a subject-verb agreement error?

• A. The group of students is very smart
• B. The team of players is winning
• C. The list of items is on the table
• D. The pile of books is heavy

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'B: The team of players is winning.' The error in this sentence is a subject-verb agreement issue. 'Team' is a singular noun, so it should take a singular verb 'is' instead of 'are.' The subject-verb agreement rule states that singular subjects should be paired with singular verbs, while plural subjects should be paired with plural verbs. Choices A, C, and D all demonstrate correct subject-verb agreement as they correctly match singular subjects ('group,' 'list,' 'pile') with singular verbs ('is,' 'is,' 'is').

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. Which part of the sentence contains a typographical error?

• A. To a
• B. Very strong
• C. Being
• D. Went from

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. The phrase 'Went form' contains a typographical error. It should be 'went from' to indicate the change in condition correctly. Choice A 'To a,' choice B 'Very strong,' and choice C 'Being' are grammatically correct and do not contain any typographical errors in the given sentence.

4. Which term refers to someone who has come to settle in the United States?

• A. Immigrate
• B. Migrate
• C. Immigrant
• D. Emigrant

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 'C: Immigrant.' An immigrant is a person who comes to live permanently in a foreign country, such as the United States. Choice A, 'Immigrate,' refers to the action of entering a foreign country to live there. Choice B, 'Migrate,' means to move from one place to another. Choice D, 'Emigrant,' is someone who leaves their own country to settle permanently in another.

5. What is the meaning of Contrite?

• A. Guilty
• B. Regretful
• C. Shameful
• D. Pleased

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Regretful.' Contrite means feeling regret or remorse. 'Guilty' (A) refers to being responsible for a wrongdoing, not necessarily feeling remorseful. 'Shameful' (C) means feeling ashamed, which is related but not the same as feeling regret. 'Pleased' (D) means feeling satisfied or happy, which is the opposite of contrite.
