1. What does it mean when an apartment is advertised as being furnished?

• A. It is equipped with articles of furniture
• B. It has a high level of decor
• C. It includes utilities like water and electricity
• D. It is fully renovated

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Choice A, 'It is equipped with articles of furniture,' correctly defines a furnished apartment. When an apartment is advertised as furnished, it means that it comes with essential furniture such as beds, tables, chairs, and other necessary items. Choice B is incorrect because being furnished does not necessarily relate to the decor level of the apartment. Choice C is incorrect as utilities like water and electricity are not typically included in the term 'furnished.' Choice D is also incorrect because being furnished does not imply that the apartment is fully renovated, which refers to structural improvements rather than furniture.

2. What is another word for compendium?

• A. Collection
• B. Aptitude
• C. Conclusion
• D. Humor

Correct answer: A

Rationale: A compendium is a collection of concise but comprehensive information on a particular subject. Therefore, another word for compendium is "collection." The term "aptitude" refers to a natural ability to do something, not synonymous with compendium. "Conclusion" is a decision or judgment reached after considering the facts, not related to a compendium. "Humor" refers to the quality of being amusing or comic, not a synonym for compendium.

3. Which word is NOT USED CORRECTLY? It sure isn't going to rain during the next playoff.

• A. Ain't
• B. During
• C. Sure
• D. Playoff

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. 'Ain't' is not grammatically correct in formal writing or speech; it should be 'isn't.' 'Ain't' is considered slang and is not appropriate for formal contexts. The other choices ('During,' 'Sure,' 'Playoff') are used correctly in the sentence.

4. Which phrase is NOT used correctly in the sentence?

• A. Do to
• B. Stay was
• C. Client's
• D. Superinfection

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. "Do to" should be corrected to "due to" in this context. The sentence should read, "The client's hospital stay was prolonged, due to a superinfection." The phrase "due to" is the appropriate choice to indicate the cause of the prolonged hospital stay. Choices B, C, and D are all used correctly in the sentence and do not contain any errors.

5. What does concave mean?

• A. Rounded inward
• B. Rounded outward
• C. Straight
• D. Flat

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Concave means rounded inward. When something is concave, it curves inwards like the interior of a bowl. Choice B, 'Rounded outward,' is incorrect as this describes a convex shape, not concave. Choice C, 'Straight,' is incorrect as concave refers to a curved shape, not a straight one. Choice D, 'Flat,' is also incorrect as it does not describe the inward curve characteristic of concave shapes.
