1. Replete is best defined as being ___________.

• A. hardy
• B. quiet
• C. full
• D. sad

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Replete means filled to the utmost capacity or complete in every detail. Therefore, the best definition of replete from the given choices is 'full.' Choice A, 'hardy,' does not accurately reflect the meaning of replete. Choice B, 'quiet,' is unrelated to the definition of replete. Choice D, 'sad,' is also not synonymous with the term replete.

• A. Deceptive
• B. Straightforward
• C. Complex
• D. Untrustworthy

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Straightforward.' Guileless means innocent, sincere, and without deceit. It describes someone who is honest and straightforward in their actions and speech. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect. 'Deceptive' means misleading or dishonest, 'Complex' means having many intricate parts, and 'Untrustworthy' means not reliable or trustworthy, all of which are opposite in meaning to guileless.

Rationale: An audit check is a process of reviewing and inspecting financial records, transactions, or processes to ensure accuracy and compliance with established guidelines. It involves examining information systematically and thoroughly to verify its completeness and reliability. Option D, "A review or inspection," best describes an audit check. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not relate to the process of auditing financial records for accuracy and compliance.

• A. Sympathetic
• B. Exhausted
• C. Scornful

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The word 'contemptuous' means showing disdain or scorn for something or someone. Therefore, the word 'scornful' is the most closely related synonym to 'contemptuous' in this list. 'Sympathetic' means showing compassion, 'exhausted' means very tired, and 'insensitive' means lacking empathy. These options do not convey the same meaning as 'contemptuous'.

• A. Widespread
