1. He tried to remember the names of all the people who were there that night.

• A. that
• B. who
• C. which
• D. whom

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In this context, 'who' is the correct relative pronoun to refer to people. 'That' is used for things, 'which' is used for animals or things, and 'whom' is an object pronoun, not needed in this sentence. Therefore, 'who' is the most appropriate choice.

2. What is the description of the word ENVIRONMENT?

• A. The major ideas of the quality of life.
• B. The assistance found outside the family.
• C. The elements inside and outside of a person.
• D. The positive and negative aspects of a home.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C because the environment refers to the surroundings or conditions in which a person, animal, or plant lives or operates, encompassing both internal and external factors. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately define the concept of 'environment.' Choice A is too broad and does not specifically address the components of an environment. Choice B is vague and does not capture the entirety of what an environment entails. Choice D is limited in scope, focusing solely on a home environment rather than the broader concept of environment.

3. What is another word for deluge?

• A. Earthquake
• B. Dimness
• C. Downpour
• D. Chasm

Correct answer: C

Rationale: A "deluge" is a sudden and heavy rainfall or flood, so the word that is most closely related in meaning to "deluge" is "downpour," which also refers to a heavy and sustained rainfall. The other choices, "earthquake," "dimness," and "chasm," do not relate to a flooding or heavy rainfall situation.

4. What does the word Trepidation mean?

• A. Fear
• B. Misgivings
• C. Confidence
• D. Doubt

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Misgivings'. Trepidation is defined as a feeling of fear or anxiety about something that may happen. Choice A ('Fear') is too broad and does not capture the specific sense of unease that trepidation conveys. Choice C ('Confidence') is the opposite of what trepidation represents. Choice D ('Doubt') is related to uncertainty but does not fully encapsulate the sense of fear and anxiety associated with trepidation.

5. What does Latent mean?

• A. Easily seen
• B. Present but not active or visible
• C. Quick to react
• D. Actively growing

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Present but not active or visible.' Latent refers to something that is existing but not yet developed or manifest. Choice A, 'Easily seen,' is incorrect as latent implies the opposite - not easily seen. Choice C, 'Quick to react,' is incorrect as latent does not imply a quick reaction but rather a hidden or dormant state. Choice D, 'Actively growing,' is incorrect as latent suggests the opposite - not actively growing but rather inactive or concealed.
