1. 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.

2. Which of the following requires a citation?

• A. Things that are easily observed
• B. A summary at the end of a project
• C. A personal experience that relates to the topic
• D. A direct quotation from a reference source

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. A direct quotation from a reference source always requires a citation to give credit to the original author. Choices A, B, and C do not necessarily require citations. Choice A refers to information that is common knowledge or easily observed, which does not need a citation. Choice B pertains to summarizing information in one's own words, which should be attributed to the original source but does not require a direct citation. Choice C involves sharing a personal experience, which does not require a citation unless it includes specific data or information that needs to be attributed to a source.

3. In the sentence 'The very lively lady was riding a beautiful parade float,' what part of speech is 'lively'?

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

Correct answer: C

Rationale: 'Lively' is an adjective in this sentence as it describes the noun 'lady.' It is used to provide more information about the characteristics of the lady, indicating how she is lively. This makes 'adjective' the correct answer. The other options are incorrect: 'Verb' is a word that expresses an action or state of being, 'Adverb' modifies a verb, an adjective, or another adverb, and 'Noun' is a person, place, thing, or idea.

4. In which of the following situations would you use formal language?

• A. Texting a friend
• B. A family reunion
• C. Skyping your grandparents
• D. At a Parent-Teacher meeting

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: At a Parent-Teacher meeting. A Parent-Teacher meeting is a formal setting where professional communication is expected. Using formal language in this context shows respect and professionalism. Choices A, B, and C involve informal or casual situations where using formal language may not be necessary or appropriate. Texting a friend, attending a family reunion, or Skyping with grandparents are typically more informal interactions where a more relaxed communication style is acceptable.

5. Based on his work and goals, how should the sentence 'Fred Hampton desired to see lasting social change for African Americans through nonviolent means and community recognition.' be best introduced?

• A. NO CHANGE
• B. Unfortunately,
• C. Finally,
• D. As a result,

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'D: As a result.' This choice effectively ties Hampton's desire for social change to his ongoing efforts and achievements. 'As a result' indicates a logical connection between Hampton's aspirations and the actions he took to achieve them. Choices B, C, and A are incorrect because they do not provide a suitable transition that connects Hampton's goals with his actions or achievements. 'Unfortunately' (choice B) introduces a negative connotation that is not appropriate in this context. 'Finally' (choice C) suggests a chronological sequence rather than a cause-and-effect relationship. 'NO CHANGE' (choice A) does not establish a clear link between Hampton's desires and his efforts for social change.
