• A. The suspect remained detained while the police conducted their inquisition.
• B. The suspect remained detained while the police conducted their inquisition.
• C. The suspect remained detained while the police conducted their inquisition.
• D. The suspect remained detained while the police conducted their inquisition.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct version of the sentence is option D: 'The suspect remained detained while the police conducted their inquisition.' This option is correct as it does not contain any misspelled words. 'Inquisition' is spelled correctly in this option, while the other options have misspelled variations of the word. Option A, B, and C all contain misspelled versions of 'inquisition,' making them incorrect choices.

2. Which word correctly completes the sentence: 'He was _____ by the kindness of strangers.'

• A. affected
• B. infected
• C. effected
• D. defected

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 'effected.' In this context, 'effected' means to produce a result or impression, which aligns with the emotional impact of the strangers' kindness. The other choices are incorrect: A) 'affected' might seem plausible, but 'effected' is a better fit as it implies a direct result. B) 'infected' is incorrect as it implies a negative or harmful impact, which is not the intended meaning. D) 'defected' means to abandon allegiance, which is not relevant in the given sentence.

3. Which of the following sentences contains proper capitalization?

• A. Last summer, my family went on a trip to Niagara Falls in New York.
• B. Last summer, my family went on a trip to Niagara Falls in New York.
• C. Last summer, my family went on a trip to Niagara Falls in New York.
• D. Last summer, my family went on a trip to Niagara Falls in New York.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct sentence follows proper capitalization rules where the words 'summer,' 'Niagara Falls,' and 'New York' are capitalized appropriately. In options A, B, and D, there are inconsistencies in capitalization where either 'summer,' 'Niagara Falls,' or 'New York' are not capitalized correctly. Therefore, option C is the correct choice.

4. Select the meaning of the highlighted word in the sentence based on the context clues: If you wake up outside in your pajamas in the middle of the night, you may be a 'somnambulist'.

• A. Explorer
• B. Magician
• C. Insomniac
• D. Sleepwalker

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: 'Sleepwalker'. The word 'somnambulist' refers to a sleepwalker, as indicated by the context of waking up outside in pajamas in the middle of the night. A sleepwalker is someone who walks while asleep, and this matches the situation described in the sentence. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not align with the behavior of walking during sleep, which is characteristic of a somnambulist/sleepwalker.

5. Which of the following sentences contains an indirect object?

• A. Melissa walked to the grocery store for milk.
• B. Dante skimmed the magazine while waiting in the lobby.
• C. Jorge assigned the class some math problems.
• D. Sara went to the movie with Amal.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: In sentence C, 'Jorge assigned the class some math problems,' 'the class' is the indirect object receiving the direct object 'some math problems.' In this sentence, 'the class' is the recipient of the action, making it the indirect object. The other choices do not contain an indirect object. In sentences A, B, and D, there are no instances of an indirect object. Therefore, the correct answer is C.
