1. My mother and _____ went shopping for clothes yesterday.

• A. me
• B. I
• C. myself
• D. mine

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'I'. In this sentence, 'I' is the subject pronoun that should be used to complete the sentence correctly. 'Me' is an object pronoun, 'myself' is a reflexive pronoun, and 'mine' is a possessive pronoun, none of which are suitable in this context.

2. The bad smell made him __________.

• A. Gag
• B. Enjoy
• C. Remember
• D. Attach

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The bad smell would likely make him gag, which is a physical reaction to an unpleasant odor. Gagging is a common response to strong or foul smells as the body seeks to expel the offending odor. Enjoy, Remember, and Attach do not accurately reflect a likely reaction to a bad smell.

3. What does 'deteriorating' mean?

• A. Improving
• B. Worsening
• C. Staying the same
• D. Fluctuating

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B, 'Worsening.' Deteriorating refers to something getting worse over time, not improving (choice A), staying the same (choice C), or fluctuating (choice D).

4. What does 'Compensatory' mean?

• A. Harmful
• B. Offsetting or making up for something
• C. Adding unnecessary work
• D. Hindering

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The term 'Compensatory' means offsetting or making up for something. In this context, it refers to the act of providing something in order to make up for a deficiency or loss. It is not related to being harmful, hindering, or adding unnecessary work. 'Harmful' (Choice A), 'Adding unnecessary work' (Choice C), and 'Hindering' (Choice D) are incorrect as they do not align with the meaning of 'Compensatory.'

5. To censure something is to __________.

• A. inspect it
• B. denounce it
• C. admire it
• D. overlook it

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To censure something means to criticize or express strong disapproval of it. When something is censured, it is condemned or denounced for its actions or behavior. 'Inspect it' (Choice A) means to examine closely, 'admire it' (Choice C) means to regard with respect or warm approval, and 'overlook it' (Choice D) means to fail to notice or consider something. These choices do not align with the meaning of censure, making 'denounce it' (Choice B) the correct answer.
