1. _______ having trouble with _______ new dog.

• A. There, their
• B. Their, there
• C. They’re, their
• D. Their, they’re

Correct answer: C

Rationale: In this sentence, the correct choices are 'They’re' and 'their.' 'They’re' is a contraction of 'they are,' which fits the context of the sentence as it suggests ownership of the dog. 'Their' is a possessive pronoun showing ownership. Choice A is incorrect as 'there' refers to a place and doesn't make sense in this context. Choice B is incorrect as the possessive pronoun 'their' should come before the noun 'dog'. Choice D is incorrect as 'they’re' should be used before the verb 'having trouble' to form a contraction for 'they are'.

2. A restricted diet is ___________.

• A. low in fat
• B. vegetarian
• C. banned
• D. limited

Correct answer: D

Rationale: A restricted diet is limited in some way, such as reducing the intake of certain foods, food groups, or nutrients. It may involve limitations on quantity, frequency, or types of foods consumed. This restriction could be related to health factors, allergies, sensitivities, ethical reasons, or personal preferences. Choice A, 'low in fat,' is too specific and does not encompass the broad concept of restriction in a diet. Choice B, 'vegetarian,' refers to a specific dietary pattern but does not necessarily indicate restriction. Choice C, 'banned,' is incorrect as it implies a complete prohibition rather than limitation, which is characteristic of a restricted diet.

3. Another word for UBIQUITOUS is?

• A. Widespread
• B. Last demand
• C. Uncertainty
• D. Finally reckoned

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The word "ubiquitous" means present, appearing, or found everywhere. Another word that closely relates to this meaning is "widespread," which also refers to something that is prevalent or found in many places. The other choices, such as "last demand," "uncertainty," and "finally reckoned," do not accurately represent the synonym for "ubiquitous."

4. To aspirate fluid, you might use a ___________.

• A. syringe
• B. beaker
• C. test tube
• D. flange

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To aspirate fluid, you would typically use a syringe. A syringe is a device consisting of a tube and a plunger, which allows you to draw fluids such as blood or medication into the tube by pulling back on the plunger. This action is called aspiration, and the syringe is a common tool for this purpose in various medical procedures. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they are not typically used for aspiration procedures. A beaker is a glass container used for holding liquids, a test tube is used for holding or mixing small quantities of substances, and a flange is a projecting rim or edge used for strength or for attaching to another object.

5. The doctor said he wanted to try other things before attempting an __________ procedure.

• A. Internal
• B. Painful
• C. Experimental
• D. Expensive

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The term 'invasive' refers to a procedure that involves entering the body, usually with a medical instrument or device. In the context provided, the doctor wants to try other non-invasive or less invasive options before resorting to an invasive procedure. 'Experimental' means untested or not yet proven to be effective, which aligns with the idea of exploring alternative methods before considering a more invasive approach. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not relate to the context of trying alternative procedures that are different from invasive ones.
