1. Which word is NOT USED CORRECTLY in the sentence? They're going to the mall to pick up there uniforms for their coach.
- A. Their
- B. Going
- C. They're
- D. There
Correct answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D, 'There.' In this context, 'There' is incorrect as it should be replaced with 'their' to show possession, referring to the uniforms belonging to the team. 'Their' (choice A) is used correctly to indicate possession. 'Going' (choice B) and 'They're' (choice C) are also used correctly in the sentence.
2. What is the meaning of 'carnivore'?
- A. hungry
- B. meat-eating
- C. infected
- D. demented
Correct answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'meat-eating.' The term 'carnivore' specifically refers to an animal that primarily consumes meat. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because 'hungry' means feeling the need to eat, 'infected' refers to being affected by a disease or pathogen, and 'demented' means to be mentally disturbed.
3. Which phrase correctly completes the sentence? 'As we celebrated the start of the evening festivities, our glasses ___ and a toast was made by our host.'
- A. Were risen
- B. Were rose
- C. Were raised
- D. Arose
Correct answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is 'Were raised.' This phrase is the correct passive form, indicating the action of lifting the glasses during the toast. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because 'were risen' is not grammatically correct, 'were rose' is not the appropriate verb form, and 'arose' does not convey the action of lifting the glasses as required in the sentence.
4. Which sentence uses the VERB correctly?
- A. I saw you standing in line at the Tilt-A-Whirl at the country fair.
- B. I sang the national anthem before the country fair moto-cross race.
- C. I ran toward the country fair arena with Nibbles the Rabbit.
- D. I wore a white shirt and dark jeans to show my goat at the country fair.
Correct answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: 'I wore a white shirt and dark jeans to show my goat at the country fair.' 'Wore' is the correct past tense form of 'wear.' Choice A is incorrect as 'seen' should be 'saw,' which is the correct past tense of 'see.' Choice B is incorrect as 'sung' should be 'sang,' the correct past tense of 'sing.' Choice C is incorrect as 'ran' is the correct verb, but the question specifically asks for the correct use of a verb, not just any verb.
5. What is the correct verb to complete the sentence? 'Economics ___ my least favorite subject at school.'
- A. Is
- B. Been
- C. Am
- D. Are
Correct answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'Is.' In this sentence, 'Economics' is being treated as a singular subject, so the verb should also be singular. 'Is' is the correct singular form of the verb to agree with the singular subject 'Economics.' Choice B, 'Been,' is incorrect because it is the past participle form of the verb 'be' and does not agree with the singular subject 'Economics.' Choice C, 'Am,' is incorrect because it is the first-person singular form of the verb 'be' and does not agree with the singular subject 'Economics.' Choice D, 'Are,' is incorrect because it is the plural form of the verb 'be' and does not agree with the singular subject 'Economics.'
