• A. Fail
• B. Offer
• C. Experience

Rationale: In this context, the word 'undergo' means to experience or go through a process. When someone undergoes something, it implies they are subjected to it or experiencing it.

• A. Won't
• B. Willn't
• C. Wouldn't
• D. Will'nt

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct contraction for 'will not' is 'won't'. 'Willn't' (Choice B) is not a standard contraction in English. 'Wouldn't' (Choice C) is the contraction for 'would not,' not 'will not.' 'Will'nt' (Choice D) is not a recognized contraction in English. Therefore, 'won't' is the correct choice as the contraction for 'will not.'

5. What is the word part placed before a word to change its meaning?

• A. Prefix
• B. Affix
• C. Suffix
• D. Vocab

Correct answer: A

Rationale: A prefix is the correct answer. A prefix is a word part attached at the beginning of a word to modify its root word, changing the definition or grammatical function of the word. Examples of prefixes include "un-" in "unhappy," "re-" in "redo," and "pre-" in "preview." Choice B, "Affix," is incorrect because while a prefix is a type of affix, not all affixes are prefixes. Choice C, "Suffix," is incorrect as a suffix is a word part added at the end of a word to change its meaning. Choice D, "Vocab," is incorrect as it refers to vocabulary or words related to a particular subject rather than a word part placed before a word.
