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.

2. In the context of the passage, 'accommodate' means to

• A. Arrange lodging for
• B. Contain
• C. Make allowances for
• D. Excuse

Correct answer: C

Rationale: In this context, 'accommodate' means to make allowances for different focal points of vision. The passage explains that the function of the lens is to adjust for different focal points so that sensory data can be correctly directed to the retina for interpretation into images by the brain. This aligns with the meaning of 'make allowances for' as it indicates adapting to or accommodating different needs or requirements. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because in the context of the passage, 'accommodate' specifically refers to adjusting for different focal points of vision rather than arranging lodging, containing, or excusing.

3. The information presented in this article is?

• A. Against eating and drinking
• B. Against drinking alcohol
• C. Against eating rich foods
• D. Unbiased and informative.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The information presented in the article is unbiased in its approach. While the article highlights the potential issues related to overeating and alcohol abuse, it does not explicitly advocate against eating and drinking, drinking alcohol, or eating rich foods. The primary focus is on the negative consequences of overeating and alcohol abuse, making choice D, 'Unbiased and informative,' the correct answer. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they are not supported by the content of the article; it merely discusses the risks associated with overeating and alcohol abuse without taking a stand against them.

4. Which is the best title for this passage?

• A. “Medical Treatment for Gout”
• B. “Uric Acid Affects the Joints”
• C. “Risk Factors for One Type of Arthritis”
• D. “Nurse-Led Care Aids Gout Patients”

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The passage focuses on how nurse-led care, including holistic education and lifestyle advice, can aid patients with gout.

5. The author seems to?

• A. Oppose drinking alcohol
• B. Favor a strict diet
• C. Oppose regulation of personal habits
• D. Advocate moderation and balance

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The passage does not explicitly state the author's stance on alcohol consumption or dieting. However, the description of playing Bridge emphasizes qualities like time, effort, and attention to become proficient. This suggests that the author likely favors moderation and balance in one's approach to activities, rather than extremes like excessive drinking or strict dieting. Choice A is incorrect because the author does not express opposition to drinking alcohol. Choice B is incorrect as there is no indication of the author favoring a strict diet. Choice C is incorrect as there is no direct mention of opposing regulation of personal habits in the passage.
