1. You _________ on your final exam.

• A. Worked
• B. Forgot
• C. Did well
• D. Done good

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 'C: Did well.' This phrase is commonly used to describe performance on an exam. 'Worked' does not fit the context of exam performance. 'Forgot' is incorrect as it implies forgetting something related to the exam. 'Done good' is grammatically incorrect; the correct form is 'done well.' Therefore, 'Did well' is the most appropriate choice in this context.

2. Select the word that makes the following sentence grammatically correct. One of the students ___________ completed the course.

• A. have
• B. has
• C. are
• D. is

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct word to use in this sentence is 'has' because 'One of the students' is singular, so it should be followed by a singular verb. The word 'has' is the correct singular form of the verb in this context. Choice A 'have' is plural, Choice C 'are' is also plural, and Choice D 'is' does not agree in number with the subject 'students'. Therefore, 'has' is the only correct choice here.

3. Select the word or phrase that will make the sentence grammatically correct. The village is not very far _________ the railway station.

• A. to
• B. from
• C. by
• D. next

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct preposition to use in this sentence is 'from.' When referring to the distance between two locations, we use 'from' to indicate the starting point and 'to' to indicate the destination. In this case, the village is not very far from the railway station, showing the distance between the two places. Choice A ('to') is incorrect as it implies the village is far in the direction of the railway station. Choice C ('by') is incorrect as it suggests proximity rather than distance. Choice D ('next') is incorrect as it indicates the location of the village in relation to the railway station, not the distance between them.

4. Select the phrase that will make this sentence grammatically correct. As the concert ended, my friends ___________.

• A. ask for a ride home
• B. asked for a ride home
• C. have asked for a ride home
• D. are asking for a ride home

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The sentence is in past tense ('As the concert ended'). Therefore, the correct verb form to use is 'asked,' as it agrees with the past tense of the sentence. Choice A is incorrect because 'ask' is not in agreement with the past tense context. Choice C is incorrect because 'have asked' is present perfect tense, not past tense. Choice D is incorrect because 'are asking' is present continuous tense, not past tense.

5. Which of the following words or phrases fits best in the following sentence? If you ever ___________ at County Medical, you would know how grueling a shift there can be.

• A. work
• B. are working
• C. had worked
• D. working

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The word 'work' (option A) is the most suitable choice for the sentence. The sentence is in the simple present tense and is discussing a general scenario or experience. The present simple tense is used to describe habits, routines, or general truths. Therefore, the word 'work' best fits in this context to indicate a general experience at County Medical without specifying a particular timeframe. Choices B, C, and D create incorrect tenses or imply specific past actions, which do not align with the intended meaning of the sentence.
