1. Which of the following verb forms correctly completes the sentence? His charismatic personality, organizational abilities, sheer determination, and rhetorical skills enable him to quickly rise through the chapter's ranks.

• A. NO CHANGE
• B. are enabling him to quickly rise
• C. enabled him to quickly rise
• D. will enable him to quickly rise

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Option C, 'enabled him to quickly rise,' is the correct choice. The sentence is referring to a past action, so the verb should be in the past tense. 'Enabled' is the correct past tense form of 'enable' in this context. Choice A ('NO CHANGE') is incorrect because it does not match the past tense required by the sentence. Option B ('are enabling him to quickly rise') is incorrect as it uses the present continuous tense, which is not suitable for the past action described. Choice D ('will enable him to quickly rise') is incorrect as it implies a future action, which is not consistent with the context of the sentence.

2. Which of the following makes a correction to an error in this sentence: The family sprinted through the airport, worryed they would miss their flight?

• A. 'family' should be 'families'
• B. 'worryed' should be 'worried'
• C. 'airport' should be 'airport'
• D. 'their' should be 'there'

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The error in the sentence lies in the misspelling of 'worryed,' which should be corrected to 'worried.' This choice addresses the grammatical mistake in the sentence. Choice A ('families') is incorrect as the sentence refers to a singular 'family.' Choice C ('airport' should be 'airport') is grammatically incorrect. Choice D ('their' should be 'there') is also incorrect; 'there' is used to indicate a place, while 'their' shows possession, neither of which is the error in the original sentence.

3. Which of the following facts would be the most relevant to include here?

• A. NO CHANGE; best as written
• B. was another activist group that
• C. had a lot of members that
• D. was another school that

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Option B provides relevant context by specifying that the BPP was another activist group. This clarification helps to establish a parallel between the BPP and the NAACP in terms of their function and purpose. Choice C is incorrect as the number of members is not the key point being compared in the sentence. Choice D is incorrect as it introduces an unrelated comparison involving schools, which is not relevant to the context provided in the sentence.

4. Though professional dental care is widely available in the developed world, the prevalence of cavities is much higher there. Which of the following parts of speech is widely used in the sentence?

• A. adjective
• B. noun
• C. adverb
• D. verb

Correct answer: C

Rationale: In the sentence, 'widely' is used as an adverb. It modifies the adjective 'available,' describing the extent to which professional dental care is available. An adverb can modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. In this case, 'widely' modifies the adjective 'available,' making it an adverb. Choice A, 'adjective,' is incorrect because 'widely' is not describing a noun. Choice B, 'noun,' is incorrect because 'widely' is not a noun. Choice D, 'verb,' is incorrect because 'widely' is not being used as a verb in the sentence.

5. What is the correct plural form of the noun 'class'?

• A. Class
• B. Class'
• C. Class's
• D. Classes

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct plural form of the noun 'class' is 'classes.' When forming the plural of 'class,' you add 'es' to the singular form. Choices A, B, and C do not correctly represent the plural form of 'class' and are therefore incorrect. Choice A is the singular form, choice B is incorrect as it includes an apostrophe, and choice C shows possession which is not required for pluralization.
