1. The word 'massive' in line 4 is closest in meaning to?

• A. Dense
• B. Impressive
• C. Huge
• D. Unavoidable

Correct answer: C

Rationale: In the context of the passage, 'massive' is used to describe the size of the collision that formed the Moon, indicating something very large or huge. While 'dense' means closely compacted, 'impressive' means evoking admiration, 'huge' is the closest synonym to 'massive' in this context. 'Unavoidable' does not convey the same meaning as 'massive' in this sentence, making it incorrect.

• A. “Medical Treatment for Gout”
• B. “Uric Acid Affects the Joints”
• C. “Risk Factors for One Type of Arthritis”

3. Which of the following is not listed as a detail in the passage about Yoga?

• A. Improved circulation.
• B. Strengthening of core muscles.
• C. Stress reduction.
• D. Fortification of immune system.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The passage outlines several benefits of yoga, such as improved circulation, strengthened core muscles, and reduced stress. However, it does not mention the fortification of the immune system, which is not discussed in the context of the benefits of yoga. This makes D the correct answer, as it is the only option not supported by the passage.

4. A vegetarian diet is said to lower all of the following EXCEPT ___________.

• A. The need for protein
• B. The percentage of body fat
• C. The risk of heart disease
• D. Cholesterol

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The passage suggests that a vegetarian diet can provide sufficient protein and lower body fat, heart disease risk, and cholesterol, but it does not suggest that it lowers the need for protein.

5. What is the meaning of the word 'established' as used in the first paragraph?

• A. Created
• B. Ascertained
• C. Founded
• D. Reputable

Correct answer: C

Rationale: In this context, 'established' means 'founded' or set up for a long time. The word is used to indicate that phototherapy has been a recognized and in place form of medicine for over a century. 'Created' (choice A) is incorrect as it implies the initial invention of phototherapy, which is not the intended meaning here. 'Ascertained' (choice B) means to find out for certain, which does not match the context of how phototherapy has been practiced. 'Reputable' (choice D) means having a good reputation, which is not the same as being long-standing or founded.
