1. What is the CORRECT CONTRACTION for 'will not'?

• 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.'

2. What is the meaning of Gender?

• A. A medical condition
• B. Sex of an individual
• C. Emotional state
• D. A psychological term

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Gender refers to the biological and social characteristics that define male and female identities. It is not a medical condition, emotional state, or psychological term. The term 'gender' specifically relates to the sex of an individual, distinguishing between traits associated with being male or female. Therefore, the correct answer is B.

3. Another word for ANTICIPATE is?

• A. Predict
• B. Evaluate
• C. Compare
• D. Forestall

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'Predict.' Anticipate means to expect or foresee something happening in the future. 'Predict' is a synonym for anticipate as both involve forecasting or making an inference about a future event. 'Evaluate' means to assess or judge something, 'Compare' means to note similarities and differences, and 'Forestall' means to prevent or hinder something. These words do not have the same meaning as 'Anticipate.'

4. To which part of the human body does 'superior' refer?

• A. Top
• B. Bottom
• C. Front
• D. Back

Correct answer: A

Rationale: In human anatomy, the term 'superior' refers to a position or structure that is closer to the top of the body or situated above another structure in relation to the standard anatomical position. This means that choice A, 'Top,' is the correct answer as it accurately reflects the anatomical meaning of 'superior.' Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they refer to different anatomical directions that are not synonymous with 'superior.' 'Bottom' (choice B) refers to 'inferior,' 'Front' (choice C) relates to 'anterior,' and 'Back' (choice D) corresponds to 'posterior.'

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.
