1. What is the meaning of Collusion?

• A. Cooperation
• B. Conspiracy
• C. Separation
• D. Rejection

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Conspiracy.' Collusion refers to a secret agreement or conspiracy, often for deceitful or illegal purposes. Choice A, 'Cooperation,' is incorrect as collusion implies a deceptive or dishonest agreement, not a genuine cooperation. Choice C, 'Separation,' is incorrect as it denotes the opposite of collusion, which involves working together secretly. Choice D, 'Rejection,' is unrelated to collusion, which involves secret cooperation for deceptive purposes.

2. What is another word for toxin?

• A. Impurity
• B. Element
• C. Remedy
• D. Poison

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, Poison. A toxin is a harmful substance that can cause illness or death, and poison is a synonym commonly used to refer to such substances. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because impurity refers to something being dirty or unclean, an element is a pure substance that cannot be broken down further, and a remedy is a solution or treatment for a problem, not a harmful substance like a toxin.

3. If a pharmacy is in compliance, it __________.

• A. shows flexibility
• B. receives criticism
• C. meets requirements
• D. has been disciplined

Correct answer: C

Rationale: When a pharmacy is in compliance, it means that it is meeting all the necessary requirements in terms of regulations, standards, and guidelines. Compliance indicates that the pharmacy is following the established rules and procedures to ensure the safety and quality of its services, products, and operations. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because compliance does not imply flexibility, criticism, or discipline; rather, it signifies adherence to set regulations and standards.

4. It seems like the sun _____ on Saturday.

• A. never shines
• B. never shone
• C. rarely shines
• D. sometimes shines

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'never shone' as the sentence is discussing a past event (Saturday). 'Never shone' is the correct past tense form to describe the sun not shining on a specific day in the past. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not provide the appropriate past tense form needed in this context. 'Never shines' is present tense, 'rarely shines' implies occasional shining, and 'sometimes shines' suggests occasional shining as well, none of which accurately convey the past event of the sun not shining on Saturday.

5. Choose the meaning of the word 'contravene' in the following sentence: 'Did the interns contravene the doctor’s orders?'

• A. Comply with
• B. Misjudge
• C. Comprehend
• D. Disregard

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The word 'contravene' in this sentence means to go against or disobey. Therefore, the correct meaning is closest to 'disregard.' The interns did not follow or comply with the doctor's orders, indicating that they contravened them. 'Comply with' (Choice A) is the opposite of 'contravene,' 'misjudge' (Choice B) and 'comprehend' (Choice C) do not accurately reflect the meaning of 'contravene' in this context.
