1. A symptom that is exacerbated is ______

• A. Improving
• B. Made worse
• C. Stayed the same
• D. Ameliorated

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B, 'Made worse.' When a symptom is exacerbated, it means that it is becoming more severe or intense. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect. A is the opposite of exacerbated as improving means getting better, C means remaining unchanged, and D means to make something better or improve, which is the opposite of exacerbate.

2. What is the CORRECT CONTRACTION for 'will not'?

• A. Won't
• B. Willn't
• C. Wouldn't
• D. Will'nt

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct contraction for 'will not' is 'won't'. 'Willn't' (Choice B) is not a standard contraction in English. 'Wouldn't' (Choice C) is the contraction for 'would not,' not 'will not.' 'Will'nt' (Choice D) is not a recognized contraction in English. Therefore, 'won't' is the correct choice as the contraction for 'will not.'

3. 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.

4. After robbing the bank, _____.

• A. the thief fled
• B. he escaped
• C. they hid
• D. they fled

Correct answer: A

Rationale: After robbing the bank, 'the thief fled' is the correct choice as it logically follows the action of robbing a bank. The singular pronoun 'he' in choice B is not appropriate as 'the thief' is singular. Choices C and D use 'they,' which is a plural pronoun and does not agree with 'the thief,' making them grammatically incorrect.

5. What does 'Impaired' mean?

• A. Increased capability
• B. Diminished or lacking usual quality
• C. Hyperactive
• D. Stronger than usual

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The term 'Impaired' means diminished or lacking usual quality. This choice is correct as it accurately reflects the meaning of the word. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect. Choice A, 'Increased capability,' is the opposite of impaired. Choice C, 'Hyperactive,' refers to excessive activity rather than a lack of usual quality. Choice D, 'Stronger than usual,' does not capture the meaning of impaired.
