1. He had to fill out a health history ____ before seeing the doctor.

• A. questionnaire
• B. questionaire
• C. questionnare
• D. questionairre

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'questionnaire.' A questionnaire is a set of questions used for gathering information. The incorrect choices B, C, and D have misspellings of the word 'questionnaire.' 'Questionaire,' 'questionnare,' and 'questionairre' are not correct spellings and may lead to confusion or misunderstanding. It is essential to use the correct spelling to ensure clear communication in healthcare settings.

2. When a researcher submits a paper for publication in a scientific journal, the editors give it to other scientists to review. Which of the following options best uses grammar to combine the sentences above for clarity?

• A. When a researcher submits a paper for publication in a scientific journal, the editors give it to other scientists to review.
• B. The editors give it to other scientists after a researcher submits a paper for publication in a scientific journal, and they review it.
• C. A researcher submits a paper for publication in a scientific journal, and then the scientists review the paper because the editors gave it to other scientists.
• D. The scientists review the paper after the editors give it to them when a researcher submits a paper for publication in a scientific journal.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: "When a researcher submits a paper for publication in a scientific journal, the editors give it to other scientists to review." This option provides a clear and concise way to combine the two sentences. It maintains the logical sequence of events: first, the researcher submits the paper, and then the editors pass it to other scientists for review. Option B introduces unnecessary complexity by separating the actions in a less fluid manner. Option C confuses the sequence of events by implying that the scientists review the paper because the editors already gave it to them, which is not the intended order of actions. Option D also disrupts the chronological order of events by placing the scientists' review before the editors give them the paper, making it less clear and accurate compared to the correct answer, option A.

3. His skill on the soccer field made him an _______ member of the team.

• A. indispensable
• B. indispensable
• C. indispensable
• D. indispensable

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct spelling is 'indispensable,' which means absolutely necessary. In this context, it implies that his skill on the soccer field is crucial and vital for the team's success. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect due to misspellings that do not accurately convey the intended meaning.

4. Select the context clue from the following sentence that helps you define the multiple meaning word formula: 'The mother gave her baby his formula after he woke up from his nap in the car.'

• A. mother
• B. baby
• C. nap
• D. car

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'B: baby.' In the sentence, 'baby' is the context clue that helps define the multiple meaning word 'formula.' Here, 'formula' refers to baby food, as babies typically consume formula. The word 'baby' directly relates to the context of feeding a baby with formula. Choice A, 'mother,' is not directly related to the meaning of 'formula' in this context. Choices C and D, 'nap' and 'car,' are also not directly connected to the meaning of 'formula' as they do not provide any relevant information about the word's meaning in this sentence.

5. Which of the following prefixes means 'with'?

• A. bio-
• B. per-
• C. con-
• D. trans-

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 'C: con-'. The prefix 'con-' means 'with', indicating being together or having a connection. - 'Bio-' means life or living organisms, not 'with'. - 'Per-' means through or completely, not 'with'. - 'Trans-' means across or beyond, not 'with'. Therefore, 'con-' is the only prefix among the options provided that signifies the meaning 'with'.
