1. An apartment is advertised as being furnished. What does the sentence mean?

• A. It is equipped with articles
• B. It has just been repainted
• C. The first month’s rent must be paid in advance
• D. The utility bills are included in the rental cost

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'It is equipped with articles.' In real estate terms, when an apartment is advertised as 'furnished', it means that the apartment comes equipped with furniture and other necessary items. This choice directly reflects the meaning of a furnished apartment. The other choices are incorrect because being furnished does not imply that the apartment has just been repainted (B), requires the first month’s rent to be paid in advance (C), or includes utility bills in the rental cost (D).

2. Which word correctly completes the sentence? 'Most children must learn for ___ the importance of good manners.'

• A. Themself
• B. Theirself
• C. Theirselves
• D. Themselves

Correct answer: D

Rationale: 'Themselves' is the correct reflexive pronoun to use when referring to 'children' in the plural form. The other options, 'themself,' 'theirself,' and 'theirselves' are not grammatically correct as they do not match the plural subject 'children.'

3. What does Debilitating mean?

• A. Incapacitating
• B. Weakening
• C. Empowering
• D. Strengthening

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'Incapacitating.' Debilitating means causing incapacity or weakness, making choice A the most appropriate. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they represent the opposite of what debilitating means. Weakening (choice B), Empowering (choice C), and Strengthening (choice D) all convey a sense of increasing strength or ability, which is the opposite of the meaning of debilitating.

4. What does 'Obsolete' mean?

• A. Innovative
• B. Outdated
• C. Effective
• D. Advanced

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'B: Outdated.' Obsolete refers to something that is outdated or no longer in use. 'Innovative' (choice A) means introducing new ideas or methods; 'Effective' (choice C) means successful in producing a desired result; 'Advanced' (choice D) means far on or ahead in development or progress. Therefore, 'Outdated' is the most appropriate antonym for 'Obsolete.'

5. What is the meaning of SOPORIFIC?

• A. Causing excitement
• B. Inducing sleep
• C. Inhibiting pain
• D. Relieving pain

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Inducing sleep.' The term 'soporific' refers to something that causes sleepiness or drowsiness, leading to sleep. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately represent the meaning of soporific. Choice A is the opposite since it means causing excitement, not drowsiness. Choices C and D are related to pain relief, which is not the primary association with the term soporific.
