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. There was no _____ for the way she treated her boyfriend.

• A. Alibi
• B. Rational
• C. Reasonable
• D. Justification

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'D: Justification.' Justification means showing that an action is reasonable or right. In this context, it implies that there was no valid reason or excuse for the way she treated her boyfriend. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect. An 'alibi' is an excuse to explain one's whereabouts during a crime, not applicable here. 'Rational' means based on reason or logic, which does not fit the context of the sentence. 'Reasonable' means fair and sensible, but the sentence suggests a lack of valid explanation rather than fairness or sensibility.

3. What is the meaning of Hygiene?

• A. General cleanliness and good health practices
• B. Measures contributing to cleanliness and good health
• C. A measure of dietary health
• D. A type of infection

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Measures contributing to cleanliness and good health.' Hygiene encompasses practices that promote cleanliness and overall good health, such as washing hands, maintaining personal hygiene, and keeping the surroundings clean. Choice A has been revised to 'General cleanliness and good health practices' to better reflect the concept of hygiene. Hygiene goes beyond just cleanliness to include specific measures for maintaining health. Choice C is incorrect as hygiene is not specifically related to dietary health; it is more about cleanliness and health practices. Choice D is incorrect as hygiene is not a type of infection; it is about preventing infections through proper practices.

4. Another word for the gonads might be the ___________.

• A. sperm
• B. vagina
• C. testes
• D. pelvis

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Another word for the gonads would be the testes in males and ovaries in females. The gonads are the primary reproductive organs that produce gametes (sperm in males and eggs in females) and sex hormones. The term 'testes' specifically refers to the male gonads, while 'ovaries' would refer to the female gonads. Therefore, 'testes' is the correct answer as it directly relates to the male gonads, making choices A, B, and D incorrect.

5. What is another word for PRECAUTION?

• A. Rule
• B. Routine procedure
• C. Preventive measure
• D. Habit

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 'C: Preventive measure.' A precaution is a preventive action taken to avoid harm or danger. 'Rule' (A) and 'Habit' (D) do not capture the essence of being cautious to prevent something negative. 'Routine procedure' (B) is related to a regular way of doing things, but it does not specifically imply taking action to prevent harm.
