1. What is the meaning of 'Exemplary'?

• A. Disappointing
• B. Praiseworthy
• C. Ordinary
• D. Unacceptable

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Praiseworthy.' Exemplary is used to describe something that is commendable, outstanding, or worthy of praise. Therefore, the meaning of 'Exemplary' is praiseworthy, not disappointing, ordinary, or unacceptable. Choice A is incorrect because 'Disappointing' is the opposite of 'Exemplary.' Choice C is incorrect as 'Ordinary' does not reflect the exceptional nature of 'Exemplary.' Choice D is incorrect as 'Unacceptable' is the opposite meaning of 'Exemplary.'

2. Which part of the sentence contains a typographical error?

• A. To a
• B. Very strong
• C. Being

Rationale: The correct answer is D. The phrase 'Went form' contains a typographical error. It should be 'went from' to indicate the change in condition correctly. Choice A 'To a,' choice B 'Very strong,' and choice C 'Being' are grammatically correct and do not contain any typographical errors in the given sentence.

3. Replete is best defined as being ___________.

Choice A, 'hardy,' does not accurately reflect the meaning of replete. Choice B, 'quiet,' is unrelated to the definition of replete. Choice D, 'sad,' is also not synonymous with the term replete.

4. A patient who is querulous might be guilty of ______.

• A. Stealing
• B. Questioning

Rationale: The correct answer is D, 'Complaining.' 'Querulous' means complaining in a petulant or whining manner. This word describes someone who is constantly finding fault and is difficult to please. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because 'querulous' specifically refers to complaining behavior, not stealing, questioning, or overeating.

5. What is the best description for the term anodyne?

• A. Emulsified
