1. The car that he had seen at the Ford dealer was the one that he finally decided to _____.

• A. buy
• B. rent
• C. lease
• D. sell

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'buy' because it is the appropriate verb for purchasing a car. In this context, the person saw a car at the Ford dealer and decided to buy it, indicating ownership. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because 'rent,' 'lease,' and 'sell' do not fit the context of deciding to acquire a car for ownership. Renting and leasing involve temporary possession, while selling involves transferring ownership to another party.

2. Select the word that means 'on both sides.'

• A. bilateral
• B. insufficient
• C. bicuspid
• D. congruent

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'bilateral.' 'Bilateral' means having two sides or affecting both sides. 'Insufficient' means not enough or inadequate, 'bicuspid' refers to a two-pointed tooth, and 'congruent' means in agreement or harmony. Therefore, 'bilateral' is the only word among the choices that specifically relates to being on both sides.

3. What does Consistency refer to?

• A. Color of a fluid
• B. Degree of viscosity, how thick or thin a fluid is
• C. Taste of a fluid
• D. Smell of a fluid

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Consistency refers to the degree of viscosity of a fluid, indicating how thick or thin it is. Viscosity is the resistance of a fluid to flow, and it determines its consistency. Choices A, color, C, taste, and D, smell, are not related to consistency. Color, taste, and smell are sensory attributes that do not define the physical property of consistency in fluids.

4. If a patient's condition is deteriorating, he is ______.

• A. Improving
• B. Getting worse
• C. Stabilizing
• D. Reversing

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'B: Getting worse.' When a patient's condition is deteriorating, it means that their health is declining or worsening. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because improving, stabilizing, and reversing all indicate positive changes or holding steady, which are the opposite of deteriorating.

5. 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.
