1. What do contours refer to?

• A. Color
• B. Shape
• C. Size
• D. Texture

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Contours refer to the shape or outline of something. They represent the boundaries or curves that define the outer edges of an object or form. Colors, sizes, and textures do not encompass the concept of contours, making them incorrect choices in this context.

2. What does the word Querulous mean?

• A. Shouting
• B. Complaining
• C. Crying
• D. Praising

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Complaining.' Querulous is an adjective that describes someone who is constantly complaining or irritable. It is not related to shouting (Choice A) or crying (Choice C). Choice D, 'Praising,' is the opposite of the meaning of querulous and therefore incorrect.

3. What does Abstain mean?

• A. To voluntarily refrain from something
• B. To consume something
• C. To eat
• D. To encourage

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'To voluntarily refrain from something.' Abstain means to choose not to do or have something, especially something you like or enjoy. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because abstain does not mean to consume something, to eat, or to encourage. It specifically refers to the act of voluntarily refraining from an action or practice.

4. Her mother asked her what she would do after she _____.

• A. graduated
• B. completes
• C. finishes
• D. finished

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'graduated.' In reported speech, the verb tense often shifts back, so 'graduated' (past tense) is the appropriate choice here. 'Completes' (present tense), 'finishes' (present tense), and 'finished' (past tense) are incorrect as they do not match the reported speech context where the verb tense typically shifts back. Therefore, 'graduated' is the most suitable choice to complete the sentence.

5. Which phrase best completes the sentence: 'Despite _____, he managed to complete the race.'

• A. his injury
• B. his condition
• C. his pain
• D. his fatigue

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'A: his injury.' In the context of completing a race, an injury would be a significant obstacle to overcome. While choices B, C, and D could also pose challenges, an injury is the most severe hindrance that would make completing a race particularly difficult. His condition, pain, or fatigue may affect performance, but they are not as directly impactful as an injury in this scenario.
