1. If a doctor has an EXEMPLARY record, her work is ______

• A. Ordinary
• B. Praiseworthy
• C. Disappointing
• D. Confusing

Correct answer: B

Rationale: An exemplary record signifies work that is praiseworthy, exceptional, or outstanding. Therefore, the correct answer is 'B: Praiseworthy.' Choices 'A: Ordinary,' 'C: Disappointing,' and 'D: Confusing' do not align with the meaning of having an exemplary record and are thus incorrect.

2. What does 'Discrete' mean?

• A. Continuous
• B. Distinct or separate
• C. Mixed
• D. Combined

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B, 'Distinct or separate.' Discrete refers to something that is individually separate and distinct, not continuous (choice A), mixed (choice C), or combined (choice D). In mathematics and other fields, discrete items are countable and distinct from each other.

3. The ETIOLOGY of the flu epidemic of 1918 remains unknown to this day.

• A. Pathology
• B. Transmission
• C. Etiology
• D. Mortality rate

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The term 'etiology' refers to the cause or origins of a disease. In this context, the question is asking for the underlying reason or cause of the flu epidemic of 1918. Therefore, the correct answer is C. 'Etiology.' Choice A, 'Pathology,' is incorrect as it refers to the study of diseases rather than the cause itself. Choice B, 'Transmission,' is incorrect as it relates to how a disease spreads rather than its cause. Choice D, 'Mortality rate,' is incorrect as it refers to the number of deaths caused by a disease rather than the cause of the disease itself.

4. Everyone thought that was the __________ test of the whole course.

• A. Most easiest
• B. Most easy
• C. Easiest
• D. Easy

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'Easiest.' The word 'easiest' is the correct superlative form of 'easy,' which is used to compare one item against others in terms of degree. 'Most easiest' and 'most easy' are grammatically incorrect. Choice D, 'Easy,' is incorrect as it is not a superlative form and does not convey a comparison of the test against others in the course.

5. 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.
