1. What is the best description for the abbreviation LDL?

• A. A group of denominations
• B. A type of lipoprotein
• C. Self-care mobility skills
• D. A certain digital value

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: A type of lipoprotein. LDL stands for Low-density lipoprotein, which is a type of lipoprotein that carries cholesterol through the bloodstream. LDL is often referred to as 'bad' cholesterol because high levels of LDL can lead to plaque buildup in the arteries, increasing the risk of heart disease and stroke. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately describe the abbreviation LDL.

2. The interns observed the CONTOURS of the patients' rash. What does Contours mean?

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

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Shape.' Contours refer to the outline or shape of something. In this context, the interns were observing the shape or outline of the patients' rash, not the color, size, or texture. Colors, sizes, and textures are not typically described as contours, making choices A, C, and D incorrect.

3. If you are an assiduous worker, you are probably ______.

• A. Lazy
• B. Industrious
• C. Inconsistent
• D. Procrastinating

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B, 'Industrious.' Assiduous means showing great care and perseverance in your work, which aligns with being industrious. Choice A, 'Lazy,' is incorrect as it is the opposite of assiduous. Choice C, 'Inconsistent,' does not directly relate to being assiduous, and choice D, 'Procrastinating,' suggests delaying tasks which is contrary to being assiduous.

4. An apartment is advertised as being furnished. What does the sentence mean?

• A. It is equipped with articles
• B. It has just been repainted
• C. The first month’s rent must be paid in advance
• D. The utility bills are included in the rental cost

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'It is equipped with articles.' In real estate terms, when an apartment is advertised as 'furnished', it means that the apartment comes equipped with furniture and other necessary items. This choice directly reflects the meaning of a furnished apartment. The other choices are incorrect because being furnished does not imply that the apartment has just been repainted (B), requires the first month’s rent to be paid in advance (C), or includes utility bills in the rental cost (D).

5. What is tepid bathwater?

• A. Water that is salty
• B. Water that is lukewarm
• C. Water that is icy
• D. Water that is half-full

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Tepid bathwater refers to water that is neither too hot nor too cold, but rather lukewarm in temperature. It is a comfortable and soothing temperature for bathing or soaking. Choice A is incorrect because tepid water is not salty. Choice C is incorrect because icy water is cold, not tepid. Choice D is incorrect as half-full refers to the quantity of water, not its temperature.
