1. Select the sentence in which 'legal' is used as an adjective.

• A. He is a legal resident of the United States
• B. This is a legal action
• C. That action was legal
• D. He acted in a legal way

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'He is a legal resident of the United States.' In this sentence, 'legal' is used to describe the type of resident he is, making it an adjective. The other choices use 'legal' as part of a noun phrase or an adverbial phrase, not as an adjective. Choice B uses 'legal' to describe the type of action, making it a noun adjunct. Choice C uses 'legal' to describe the legality of the action, making it part of an adjectival phrase. Choice D uses 'legal' to describe the manner in which he acted, making it an adverb.

2. What does Debilitating mean?

• A. Incapacitating
• B. Weakening
• C. Empowering
• D. Strengthening

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'Incapacitating.' Debilitating means causing incapacity or weakness, making choice A the most appropriate. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they represent the opposite of what debilitating means. Weakening (choice B), Empowering (choice C), and Strengthening (choice D) all convey a sense of increasing strength or ability, which is the opposite of the meaning of debilitating.

3. What does the word 'furnished' mean in the context of the apartment?

• A. Fully renovated
• B. Equipped with furniture
• C. Includes utilities
• D. Has modern decor

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In real estate, when an apartment is described as 'furnished,' it means that it comes equipped with furniture. This typically includes essential items like beds, sofas, dining tables, and more. Therefore, 'Equipped with furniture' is the correct meaning of 'furnished' in this context. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because being 'furnished' specifically refers to the presence of furniture in the apartment, not renovation status, utilities, or decor style.

4. Which word describes a person's music collection who listens to a mixture of genres from punk rock to classical?

• A. Theoretical
• B. Relevant
• C. Mélange
• D. Cacophony

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The word 'mélange' refers to a mixture or medley of different elements, which perfectly fits the description of someone who listens to various music genres. It implies diversity in their collection, covering a broad range of styles from punk rock to classical music. Choice A, 'Theoretical,' does not relate to music collections and is more aligned with concepts and hypotheses. Choice B, 'Relevant,' does not capture the idea of a varied music collection. Choice D, 'Cacophony,' refers to a harsh, discordant mixture of sounds, which does not represent a music collection with a variety of genres.

5. The ETIOLOGY of the flu epidemic of 1918 remains unknown to this day.

• A. Pathology
• B. Transmission
• C. Etiology
• D. Mortality rate

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The term 'etiology' refers to the cause or origins of a disease. In this context, the question is asking for the underlying reason or cause of the flu epidemic of 1918. Therefore, the correct answer is C. 'Etiology.' Choice A, 'Pathology,' is incorrect as it refers to the study of diseases rather than the cause itself. Choice B, 'Transmission,' is incorrect as it relates to how a disease spreads rather than its cause. Choice D, 'Mortality rate,' is incorrect as it refers to the number of deaths caused by a disease rather than the cause of the disease itself.
