1. Before his death at age 82, comedian Rodney Dangerfield's motto was, 'I don't get _____.'

• A. respect
• B. sympathy
• C. attention
• D. care

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'A: respect.' Rodney Dangerfield was famously known for his catchphrase 'I don't get no respect,' which perfectly aligns with the concept of respect being his motto. The other choices, 'B: sympathy,' 'C: attention,' and 'D: care,' do not accurately capture Dangerfield's well-known persona and catchphrase. Therefore, 'A: respect' is the most suitable answer.

2. What does Depth mean?

• A. The thickness of an object
• B. Downward measurement from a surface
• C. The length of a surface
• D. The area between two points

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Depth refers to the distance or downward measurement from a surface. It is not the thickness of an object (Choice A), as thickness is the measure of how thick or thin an object is, not necessarily related to depth. Additionally, it is not the length of a surface (Choice C) because length typically refers to the longest dimension of an object rather than its depth. Finally, it is not the area between two points (Choice D) because area is a measure of the space within a boundary defined by points, while depth specifically refers to the vertical distance below a surface.

3. An inability to be lucid in the early morning means the person is unable to behave in which way?

• A. Coherent
• B. Speculative
• C. Furtive
• D. Animated

Correct answer: A

Rationale: An inability to be lucid in the early morning means the person is unable to behave in a coherent way. Lucidity refers to clarity of thought and coherence in one's behavior or speech. If someone is not lucid, they may be confused, disoriented, or unable to express themselves clearly. Therefore, the correct choice is A. Coherent. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because being unable to be lucid does not necessarily mean the person is behaving in a speculative, furtive, or animated way.

4. What is another word for ADHERE?

• A. Remain intact
• B. Loosen
• C. Hold fast
• D. Position next to

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 'C: Hold fast.' 'Adhere' means to stick firmly to something, which aligns with 'hold fast.' Choices A, B, and D are incorrect. 'Remain intact' does not capture the idea of sticking to something, 'loosen' is the opposite of 'adhere,' and 'position next to' does not convey the sense of sticking or clinging.

5. What does Medial mean?

• A. Away from the midline
• B. Toward the midline
• C. At the side
• D. Below the body

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Medial means toward the midline of the body. In anatomical terms, 'medial' refers to positions closer to the midline of the body, which divides the body into left and right halves. Choice A is incorrect as it describes 'lateral,' which means away from the midline. Choice C is incorrect as it describes 'lateral' or 'side.' Choice D is incorrect as it describes 'inferior,' which means below or lower in position.
