• A. Scheduling
• B. Contracting
• C. Traveling
• D. Charging

Correct answer: A

Rationale: In this context, 'booking' refers to scheduling appointments for bone density tests. The correct choice is 'A: Scheduling' because in the given text, women are booking bone density tests to ensure their bone health. 'Contracting' (Choice B) is incorrect as it does not fit the context of making appointments. 'Traveling' (Choice C) and 'Charging' (Choice D) are also irrelevant to the context of scheduling appointments for medical tests.

Rationale: Based on the extract provided, the author discusses the effects of different voice qualities on others but does not express any preference or reaction towards specific voices. The author emphasizes the negative impact of harsh tones and provides insights into how voice qualities can influence perceptions. As a result, it can be inferred that the author has no particular reactions to different voices. Choices A and B are incorrect as there is no mention of the author's public speaking experience or preference for specific voice qualities in the passage.

• A. Subjects were given mild stressors.
• B. Lemon and lavender scents were tested.
• C. Vanilla worked better than lemon for stress.
• D. The study took place at Ohio State University.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The passage does not support the idea that vanilla worked better than lemon for stress relief; instead, it focuses specifically on lemon and lavender as the tested scents. The absence of this information regarding vanilla makes C the correct answer, as it is not included in the details provided in the passage.

5. What is the meaning of the word 'emitting' as it is used in the second paragraph?

• A. Repelling
• B. Releasing
• C. Closing
• D. Charging

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In the context provided, 'emitting' means releasing, specifically referring to the electric currents being released in the body. The passage describes how electric currents are constantly being emitted in the body and can be detected on the body's surface, ultimately recorded by an electrocardiograph. This process is about the release of electric impulses, making 'releasing' the correct interpretation. Choice A, 'Repelling,' implies pushing away, which is not the intended meaning in this context. Choice C, 'Closing,' and Choice D, 'Charging,' do not align with the context of electric currents being emitted.
