1. If you are an assiduous worker, you are probably ______.

• A. Lazy
• B. Industrious
• C. Inconsistent
• D. Procrastinating

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B, 'Industrious.' Assiduous means showing great care and perseverance in your work, which aligns with being industrious. Choice A, 'Lazy,' is incorrect as it is the opposite of assiduous. Choice C, 'Inconsistent,' does not directly relate to being assiduous, and choice D, 'Procrastinating,' suggests delaying tasks which is contrary to being assiduous.

2. What does Flaccid mean?

• A. Rigid
• B. Limp or lacking tone
• C. Tense
• D. Swollen

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Limp or lacking tone.' Flaccid refers to something that is lacking firmness or muscle tone. Choice A, 'Rigid,' is incorrect as it is the opposite of flaccid. Choice C, 'Tense,' is also incorrect as it implies stiffness or tightness, which is different from being flaccid. Choice D, 'Swollen,' is unrelated to the meaning of flaccid.

3. What does 'Excess' mean?

• A. Less than what is needed or usual
• B. More than what is needed or usual
• C. Equal to the amount needed
• D. Below average

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'More than what is needed or usual.' Excess refers to an amount that surpasses what is required or typical. Choice A is incorrect because 'less than what is needed or usual' is the opposite of excess. Choice C is incorrect as 'equal to the amount needed' does not imply excess. Choice D is incorrect as 'below average' does not capture the essence of excess.

4. Which word is NOT used correctly in the sentence? "You should always do the write thing."

• A. Do
• B. Always
• C. Write
• D. Should

Correct answer: C

Rationale: "Write" is incorrect in this context. It should be "right," referring to the correct or moral action.

5. What is the meaning of Contrite?

• A. Guilty
• B. Regretful
• C. Shameful
• D. Pleased

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Regretful.' Contrite means feeling regret or remorse. 'Guilty' (A) refers to being responsible for a wrongdoing, not necessarily feeling remorseful. 'Shameful' (C) means feeling ashamed, which is related but not the same as feeling regret. 'Pleased' (D) means feeling satisfied or happy, which is the opposite of contrite.
