1. Fred Hampton desired to see lasting social change for African American people through nonviolent means and community recognition. Which of the following is the best way to start this sentence?

• A. NO CHANGE
• B. Unfortunately,
• C. Finally,
• D. As a result,

Correct answer: D

Rationale: 'As a result' correctly introduces the cause-and-effect relationship in the sentence. In this context, 'As a result' signifies that Fred Hampton's desire for lasting social change through nonviolent means and community recognition led to a specific outcome or consequence. The other choices, 'Unfortunately,' 'Finally,' and 'NO CHANGE,' do not fit the context as they do not convey the cause-and-effect relationship intended in the sentence.

2. Hampton's greatest achievement as the leader of the BPP may be his fight against street gang violence in Chicago. Which of these, if any, is misspelled?

• A. None of these are misspelled.
• B. greatest
• C. achievement
• D. leader

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. All the words in the sentence are spelled correctly, so there is no misspelling present. 'Greatest,' 'achievement,' and 'leader' are all spelled correctly. Choice B, 'greatest,' is correctly spelled as it refers to the highest rank or importance. Choice C, 'achievement,' is also spelled correctly, denoting something accomplished successfully. Choice D, 'leader,' is the correct spelling for a person who leads or commands a group.

3. Which of the following is the plural of the word chief?

• A. Chiefs
• B. Chieves
• C. Chievs
• D. Chiefes

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Chiefs.' When making the word 'chief' plural, the correct form is 'Chiefs.' Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not follow the standard rules for forming plurals in English. 'Chieves,' 'Chievs,' and 'Chiefes' are not valid plural forms of 'chief.' It's important to understand the basic rules of pluralization in English to form correct plural nouns.

4. Which of the following words is a synonym for 'happy'?

• A. Sad
• B. Joyful
• C. Angry
• D. Tired

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'B: Joyful.' 'Joyful' is a synonym for 'happy' as both words convey feelings of pleasure, contentment, and delight. Choice 'A: Sad' is incorrect as it is an antonym of 'happy,' representing feelings of sorrow or unhappiness. 'Angry' in choice 'C' and 'Tired' in choice 'D' are also incorrect as they represent different emotional states and do not share the same meaning as 'happy.'

5. Which of the following words in the sentence is an adverb? We should go outside.

• A. We
• B. should
• C. go
• D. outside

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The word 'outside' is the adverb in the sentence. An adverb is a word that modifies a verb, adjective, or another adverb. In this sentence, 'outside' modifies the verb 'go' by indicating the location where the action is taking place. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because 'We' is a pronoun, 'should' is a modal verb, and 'go' is the main verb in the sentence, none of which function as adverbs.
