1. Hampton was quickly attracted to the Black Panther Party’s approach to the fight for equal rights for African Americans. Which of the following options uses the possessive form correctly?

• A. NO CHANGE
• B. Black Panther Party's approach
• C. Black Panther Party's approach
• D. Black Panther Party's approach

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Choice A, 'NO CHANGE,' is the correct answer. 'Party’s' is correctly used to show the possessive form, indicating the approach belongs to the Black Panther Party. Choices B, C, and D incorrectly use plural forms ('Parties' or 'Partys') or unnecessary apostrophes ('Partys’'), which do not accurately convey the possessive form needed in this context.

2. Which version of the sentence is correct grammatically?

• A. I had seen her before, but yesterday was the first time I saw her indoors.
• B. I had saw her before, but yesterday was the first time I seen her indoors.
• C. I had seen her before, but yesterday was the first time I seen her indoors.
• D. I had saw her before, but yesterday was the first time I saw her indoors.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct sentence is: 'I had seen her before, but yesterday was the first time I saw her indoors.' In this sentence, the correct past participle form of 'see' is used, which is 'seen' in the past perfect tense ('I had seen') and 'saw' in the simple past tense ('I saw'). Choices B, C, and D contain incorrect past participle and past tense forms of the verb 'see,' making them grammatically incorrect. Choice A is the only option that uses the correct past participle 'seen' and the correct simple past tense 'saw.' Therefore, it is the grammatically correct version of the sentence.

3. What is the part of speech of the word 'fresh' in the sentence: 'We need to come up with a fresh approach to this problem'?

• A. Noun
• B. Verb
• C. Adverb
• D. Adjective

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The word 'fresh' is an adjective in this sentence. Adjectives modify or describe nouns, and in this case, 'fresh' describes the noun 'approach.' A noun refers to a person, place, thing, or idea (e.g., 'apple'). A verb is a word that expresses action or state of being (e.g., 'run'). An adverb usually modifies a verb, an adjective, or another adverb by providing more information about how, when, where, or to what extent something is done (e.g., 'quickly'). In this sentence, 'fresh' is not a noun, verb, or adverb, making 'adjective' the correct choice.

4. Identify the adjective in the following sentence: The colorful sunset painted the sky with vibrant hues.

• A. sunset
• B. with
• C. colorful
• D. painted

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 'C - colorful.' Adjectives are words that describe or modify nouns or pronouns. In this sentence, 'colorful' describes the noun 'sunset,' making it the adjective in the sentence. Choice A, 'sunset,' is a noun, not an adjective. Choice B, 'with,' is a preposition. Choice D, 'painted,' is a verb, not an adjective. Therefore, the correct answer is 'C - colorful.'

5. Which of the following words is spelled correctly?

• A. Miniscool
• B. Miniature
• C. Maintenance
• D. Millennium

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Millennium.' 'Millennium' is spelled correctly, referring to a period of 1000 years. Choice A, 'Miniscool,' and Choice B, 'Miniature,' are misspelled. Choice C, 'Maintenance,' is a commonly misspelled word, but in this case, it is spelled correctly. However, the correct spelling requested in the question is 'Millennium.'
