1. Which verb form best completes the sentence?

• A. Going
• B. Go
• C. Have
• D. Having

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Having.' In the sentence 'I am looking forward to having my birthday party next week,' 'having' is the correct present participle form of the verb 'have' to indicate an anticipated event. Choice A 'Going' is incorrect as it does not match the structure of the sentence. Choice B 'Go' is incorrect as it is the base form of the verb and does not fit grammatically. Choice C 'Have' is incorrect as it is the base form and does not convey the future action in the sentence.

2. What is the meaning of incorrigible?

• A. Curable
• B. Incurable
• C. Treatable
• D. Temporary

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Incurable.' Incorrigible refers to something or someone that is beyond correction or incurable. It implies a persistent behavior or trait that is difficult or impossible to change. Choice A, 'Curable,' is incorrect because incorrigible means the opposite - not capable of being cured. Choice C, 'Treatable,' is incorrect because incorrigible implies a condition that is resistant to treatment. Choice D, 'Temporary,' is incorrect as incorrigible suggests a long-lasting or permanent state, not something temporary.

3. Which term refers to someone who has come to settle in the United States?

• A. Immigrate
• B. Migrate
• C. Immigrant
• D. Emigrant

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 'C: Immigrant.' An immigrant is a person who comes to live permanently in a foreign country, such as the United States. Choice A, 'Immigrate,' refers to the action of entering a foreign country to live there. Choice B, 'Migrate,' means to move from one place to another. Choice D, 'Emigrant,' is someone who leaves their own country to settle permanently in another.

4. Which word correctly completes the sentence? "Be careful not to ___ the bottle while you carry it to the table."

• A. Brak
• B. Break
• C. Brick
• D. Brake

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is "Break." In this context, 'break' is the appropriate word as it means to damage or shatter something. The other choices are incorrect: 'Brak' is a misspelling, 'Brick' is unrelated to the context of the sentence, and 'Brake' refers to a device used to slow down or stop movement, which is not relevant to carrying a bottle to the table.

5. A condition that is chronic is ___________.

• A. harmless
• B. critical
• C. contagious
• D. recurring

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, 'recurring.' A chronic condition is one that is ongoing or long-lasting, implying that it persists or recurs over a prolonged period of time. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because chronicity does not necessarily imply harmlessness, criticality, or contagion; rather, it refers to the persistent or recurring nature of the condition.
