1. In the address 'Mr. Ryan, 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., Washington, DC 20003,' which word is the salutation?

• A. 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
• B. 20003 (Area code)
• C. Ryan
• D. Mr.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'D - Mr.' The salutation is the formal title used before a person's name, which in this case is 'Mr.' Other choices are incorrect as '1600 Pennsylvania Ave.' is the street address, '20003' is the zip code, and 'Ryan' is the recipient's name.

2. What action describes what a cat, who is clearly scared of a Rottweiler, will do when the dog enters the room?

• A. Cower
• B. Engender
• C. Enhance
• D. Replicate

Correct answer: A

Rationale: When a cat cowers, it means the cat is crouching down or trying to make itself look smaller in fear or apprehension of something, in this case, the Rottweiler. Hence, the word 'cower' accurately describes what the cat would do when faced with a Rottweiler entering the room. The other choices are incorrect: 'Engender' means to cause or give rise to, 'Enhance' means to improve or increase the quality or value of something, and 'Replicate' means to duplicate or reproduce something.

3. What does Exposure mean?

• A. Protection from external elements
• B. Contact
• C. Absorption
• D. Isolation

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Exposure refers to coming into contact with external elements. Choice A is incorrect as exposure does not imply protection but rather contact. Choice C, absorption, refers to the process of soaking up or taking in something. Choice D, isolation, means being separated or kept apart from others, which is not synonymous with exposure.

4. Another word for SITE is?

• A. Severity
• B. Location
• C. Fortunate
• D. Appearance

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Another word for 'SITE' is 'Location.' In this context, 'site' typically refers to a place or area, making 'Location' the most appropriate synonym among the given choices. Choice A, 'Severity,' does not relate to the meaning of 'site' as a place or area. Choice C, 'Fortunate,' and Choice D, 'Appearance,' are also unrelated to the concept of 'site,' making them incorrect choices.

5. A treatment that is detrimental is ___________.

• A. risk-free
• B. destructive
• C. agonizing
• D. effective

Correct answer: B

Rationale: A treatment that is detrimental is considered destructive because it causes harm or damage rather than benefiting the individual. In this context, 'detrimental' implies that the treatment has negative effects and is harmful rather than helpful. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because a detrimental treatment is not risk-free, agonizing, or effective; instead, it is harmful and damaging.
