1. What is the description of the word ENVIRONMENT?

• A. The major ideas of the quality of life.
• B. The assistance found outside the family.
• C. The elements inside and outside of a person.
• D. The positive and negative aspects of a home.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C because the environment refers to the surroundings or conditions in which a person, animal, or plant lives or operates, encompassing both internal and external factors. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately define the concept of 'environment.' Choice A is too broad and does not specifically address the components of an environment. Choice B is vague and does not capture the entirety of what an environment entails. Choice D is limited in scope, focusing solely on a home environment rather than the broader concept of environment.

2. A UTI is likely to involve the ___________.

• A. bones
• B. throat
• C. stomach
• D. bladder

Correct answer: D

Rationale: A UTI (Urinary Tract Infection) is likely to involve the bladder. A urinary tract infection is an infection in any part of the urinary system, which includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. The most common type of UTI is a bladder infection where bacteria enter the bladder and cause inflammation and infection. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because a UTI specifically affects the urinary tract system and not the bones, throat, or stomach.

3. What does oral mean?

• A. Through the skin
• B. Given through or affecting the mouth
• C. Injected
• D. Absorbed through digestion

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Given through or affecting the mouth.' Oral medications are those that are taken by mouth. Choice A is incorrect as 'Through the skin' refers to something being absorbed through the skin, not through the mouth. Choice C, 'Injected,' is incorrect as oral administration does not involve injection but rather ingestion. Choice D, 'Absorbed through digestion,' is partially correct in that oral medications are indeed absorbed through the digestive system, but the term 'oral' specifically refers to the mouth in this context.

4. Which phrase best completes the sentence: 'Despite _____, he managed to complete the race.'

• A. his injury
• B. his condition
• C. his pain
• D. his fatigue

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'A: his injury.' In the context of completing a race, an injury would be a significant obstacle to overcome. While choices B, C, and D could also pose challenges, an injury is the most severe hindrance that would make completing a race particularly difficult. His condition, pain, or fatigue may affect performance, but they are not as directly impactful as an injury in this scenario.

5. What does it mean to critique something?

• A. Dislike
• B. Appraise
• C. Ignore
• D. Condemn

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To critique something means to evaluate or appraise it, looking at its strengths and weaknesses. Choice A, 'Dislike,' is incorrect because critiquing involves a more detailed analysis than simply expressing a negative feeling. Choice C, 'Ignore,' is incorrect as critiquing involves paying attention and analyzing the subject, not disregarding it. Choice D, 'Condemn,' is incorrect as it implies a strong disapproval rather than a thoughtful evaluation.
