1. 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.

2. What does inhibiting mean?

• A. Blocking
• B. Hindering
• C. Energizing
• D. Slowing down improvement

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Hindering.' Inhibiting means to hinder or slow down a process rather than actively block or energize it. Hindering implies causing a delay or obstruction, which aligns closely with the meaning of inhibiting. Choices A and C are incorrect because inhibiting does not necessarily mean completely blocking or energizing a process. Choice D is incorrect as it specifically mentions improvement, which is not always the focus of inhibiting.

3. Identify the dependent clause in this sentence: 'The mother dog left her bed as soon as the puppies were ____.'

• A. slept
• B. sleeping
• C. awake
• D. sleep

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'B: sleeping.' In the sentence, 'as soon as the puppies were sleeping' functions as the dependent clause. A dependent clause is a group of words that contains a subject and a verb but cannot stand alone as a sentence. Choices A, C, and D do not form a dependent clause in the sentence provided. 'Slept' (A) is a verb in the past tense, 'awake' (C) is an adjective, and 'sleep' (D) is a noun. Therefore, 'sleeping' (B) is the only choice that correctly forms the dependent clause in this sentence.

4. Choose the meaning of the word 'yaw' in the following sentence: 'The robotic arm may yaw too much and need adjusting.'

• A. To gape open
• B. To move up and down
• C. To close tightly
• D. To move side to side

Correct answer: D

Rationale: In this sentence, the term 'yaw' refers to a movement where the robotic arm moves side to side. The context suggests that the arm is exhibiting too much of this side-to-side movement and requires adjustment to rectify the issue. Choice A, 'to gape open,' is incorrect as 'yaw' does not imply opening. Choice B, 'to move up and down,' is incorrect as 'yaw' specifically refers to side-to-side movement. Choice C, 'to close tightly,' is incorrect as it does not relate to the movement described in the sentence.

5. Which word is NOT GRAMMATICALLY CORRECT? During the time he lived in New York, he worked as a writer, an editor, and a library.

• A. An
• B. Library
• C. As
• D. During

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The word 'library' is incorrect in this context. It should be 'librarian' to be grammatically correct. The other choices ('an,' 'as,' 'during') are all grammatically correct and fit appropriately in the sentence.
