1. What is the correct subjunctive verb to complete the sentence? 'If I ___ you, I'd leave now.'

• A. Were
• B. Is
• C. Be
• D. Was

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Were.' In the subjunctive mood, we use 'were' for hypothetical or unreal situations. The sentence should read, 'If I were you, I'd leave now.' Choice B ('Is') is incorrect because it is not in the subjunctive form. Choice C ('Be') is incorrect as it is the base form and not the correct form for the subjunctive mood. Choice D ('Was') is incorrect as it is the past tense form and not used in the subjunctive mood.

2. Which term refers to the surgical removal of an organ's contents?

• A. Excretion
• B. Evisceration
• C. Incision
• D. Reduction

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B, 'Evisceration.' Evisceration specifically means the surgical removal of an organ's contents. Choice A, 'Excretion,' is the process of eliminating waste products from the body and is not related to surgical procedures. Choice C, 'Incision,' refers to the act of cutting into the body, commonly done in surgeries but not specifically related to removing organ contents. Choice D, 'Reduction,' generally means to make something smaller or lessen its size, which is not the term used for the surgical removal of an organ's contents.

3. Choose the meaning of the word 'quarantine' in the following sentence: 'The patients are under quarantine until further notice.'

• A. A specialist's care
• B. Experimental drug therapy
• C. Imprisonment in a rehabilitation unit
• D. Confinement away from the general population

Correct answer: D

Rationale: In this sentence, the word 'quarantine' is used to convey the idea that the patients are isolated or separated from the general population. Quarantine is often implemented to prevent the spread of diseases or infections, and in this context, it implies confinement or isolation to ensure the safety of others. The other choices are incorrect because 'A' refers to specialized medical attention, 'B' refers to a specific medical treatment, and 'C' implies being held against one's will in a rehab facility, none of which capture the meaning of 'quarantine' as used in the sentence provided.

4. Which part of the sentence contains a typographical error?

• A. To a
• B. Very strong
• C. Being
• D. Went from

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. The phrase 'Went form' contains a typographical error. It should be 'went from' to indicate the change in condition correctly. Choice A 'To a,' choice B 'Very strong,' and choice C 'Being' are grammatically correct and do not contain any typographical errors in the given sentence.

5. Another word for UNDER OBSERVATION is?

• A. Cognition
• B. Isolation
• C. Surveillance
• D. Assessment

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C, 'Surveillance,' which means 'under observation.' 'Cognition' (A) refers to mental processes, 'Isolation' (B) means being separated from others, and 'Assessment' (D) is the evaluation of something, none of which directly relate to being observed.
