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 term refers to the feelings a text creates in the reader?

• A. Tone
• B. Irony
• C. Mood
• D. Theme

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Mood.' Mood refers to the atmosphere or emotional setting created by a piece of literary work. It reflects the feelings and emotions evoked in the reader while experiencing the text. 'Tone' (choice A) refers to the attitude of the writer towards the subject or audience, 'Irony' (choice B) involves a contrast between what is expected and what actually occurs, and 'Theme' (choice D) is the central idea or message conveyed by the text.

3. What is the correct plural form of the noun 'class'?

• A. Class
• B. Class'
• C. Class's
• D. Classes

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct plural form of the noun 'class' is 'classes.' When forming the plural of 'class,' you add 'es' to the singular form. Choices A, B, and C do not correctly represent the plural form of 'class' and are therefore incorrect. Choice A is the singular form, choice B is incorrect as it includes an apostrophe, and choice C shows possession which is not required for pluralization.

• A. Twenty-fiveth anniversary

• A. Literary

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The passage represents professional writing because it is formal, work-related communication involving a request for input on a specific business-related matter. The passage's focus on internal accounting system reconfiguration and improvement of a specific program aligns with professional communication in a workplace setting. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect: A) 'Literary' writing typically focuses on creative expression and storytelling, which is not evident in this passage; C) 'Colloquial' writing is informal and conversational, unlike the formal tone of the passage; D) 'Scientific' writing involves research, data analysis, and objective facts, which are not present in the passage.
