1. What is the CORRECT CONTRACTION for 'They are'?

• A. Their
• B. They're
• C. The're
• D. No contraction used

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct contraction for 'They are' is 'They're.' 'Their' is a possessive pronoun indicating ownership, not a contraction. 'The're' is not a valid contraction. 'No contraction used' is incorrect as there is a contraction for 'They are,' which is 'They're.'

2. 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.

3. Which sentence is NOT GRAMMATICALLY CORRECT?

• A. Because he did not examine the patient, the healthcare provider prescribed her with the wrong medication.
• B. The nurse decided to bathe the client, then trim his nails.
• C. The dietician, through negligence, made a mistake with the diet plan.
• D. Since the child was feeling ill, the nurse sent him home.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Choice B is incorrect due to the use of 'than' instead of 'then.' The correct word in this context is 'then' to indicate the order of actions. Choices A, C, and D are all grammatically correct. In choice A, the sentence structure is correct with a clear cause-effect relationship. Choice C is grammatically sound, describing the dietician's mistake. Choice D is also grammatically correct, showing a cause (the child feeling ill) leading to an effect (the nurse sending him home).

4. 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.

5. 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.
