1. It is required that he _____ payment immediately.

• A. make
• B. sends
• C. sent
• D. deliver

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'make.' In this context, 'make' is the correct verb to use with 'payment.' The sentence structure requires a base form of the verb after 'required that.' Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as 'sends,' 'sent,' and 'deliver' do not match the structure needed in this sentence.

2. Choose the meaning of the word projected in the following sentence: 'Treatment is projected to last three months or more.'

• A. Protruded
• B. Guaranteed
• C. Estimated
• D. Alleged

Correct answer: C

Rationale: In this context, 'projected' is used to indicate an estimation or prediction of the duration of the treatment. Therefore, it aligns closest in meaning to 'estimated.' Choice A, 'Protruded,' means to extend beyond or above a surface, which does not fit the context of the sentence. Choice B, 'Guaranteed,' means to provide assurance, which is not the intended meaning in the sentence. Choice D, 'Alleged,' means to claim without proof, which is not the correct interpretation in this context.

3. 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.

4. What does 'Parameter' mean?

• A. A constant variable
• B. A characteristic or constant factor
• C. A measurable limit
• D. A calculated risk

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'A characteristic or constant factor.' In the context of systems or experiments, a parameter is a fixed element that influences the behavior or outcome. It is not a variable like in choice A, which can change. Choice C, 'A measurable limit,' is incorrect as a parameter is not necessarily a physical limit but a defining factor. Choice D, 'A calculated risk,' is unrelated to the definition of a parameter.

5. What does 'Obsolete' mean?

• A. Innovative
• B. Outdated
• C. Effective
• D. Advanced

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'B: Outdated.' Obsolete refers to something that is outdated or no longer in use. 'Innovative' (choice A) means introducing new ideas or methods; 'Effective' (choice C) means successful in producing a desired result; 'Advanced' (choice D) means far on or ahead in development or progress. Therefore, 'Outdated' is the most appropriate antonym for 'Obsolete.'
