• B. Wide open
• C. Narrow
• D. Sealed

2. HPV is likely to involve the ___________.

• A. skull and spine
• B. mucous membranes
• C. kidneys
• D. heart

Correct answer: B

Rationale: HPV, which stands for Human Papillomavirus, is a virus that commonly affects the skin and mucous membranes. It primarily targets the genital area but can also infect the mouth and throat through oral-genital contact. Therefore, the most likely involvement of HPV is with the mucous membranes, making option B the correct choice. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because HPV does not typically affect the skull, spine, kidneys, or heart.

3. What is another word for contemptuous?

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

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'.

4. 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.

5. Which sentence uses the word 'present' as an adjective?

• A. She gave a present to her friend
• B. She was present at the meeting
• C. She made a present for her friend
• D. The teacher presented the award

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The sentence 'She was present at the meeting' uses 'present' as an adjective. In this context, 'present' describes her state of being at the meeting. The other choices use 'present' as a verb (to give), a noun (a gift), and a verb (to show), making them incorrect in the context of looking for the adjective use of 'present'.
