1. Which word is not spelled correctly in the context of the sentence? The chef rolled each meatball in a mixture of coarse flour and herbs.

• A. rolled
• B. coarse
• C. flour
• D. herbs

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct word should be 'coarse' instead of 'course' in this context. 'Coarse' means composed of relatively large parts or particles, which is the intended meaning in the sentence as it describes the type of flour used for the meatballs. On the other hand, 'course' means a route or direction taken, which does not fit the context here.

2. Later he spends $20 on bus tokens. How much is left from his original $100?

• A. $49.30
• B. $69.30
• C. $79.30
• D. $89.30

Correct answer: D

Rationale: If he spends $20 on bus tokens from his original $100, then the amount left is $100 - $20 = $80. The remaining 90% of $80 is calculated as $80 + 0.90 * $80 = $80 + $72 = $89.30. Therefore, the correct answer is $89.30. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not represent the correct calculation of the remaining amount after spending $20.

3. What is the boiling point of water in °C?

• A. 90°C
• B. 100°C
• C. 95°C
• D. 80°C

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 100°C. The boiling point of water in Celsius is 100°C, which is standard at sea level. This is the temperature at which water changes from a liquid to a gas phase under standard atmospheric pressure. Choice A (90°C), Choice C (95°C), and Choice D (80°C) are incorrect because they do not represent the standard boiling point of water at sea level.

4. Another word for CONSISTENCY is?

• A. Appearance
• B. Volatility
• C. Thickness
• D. Color

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Consistency refers to the quality of staying the same in behavior or level. Thickness is a synonym for consistency as it implies a state of being dense, compact, or solid throughout, which aligns with the idea of staying the same. Conversely, appearance, volatility, and color do not directly relate to the concept of consistency. 'Appearance' refers to how something looks, 'volatility' refers to how easily something changes, and 'color' refers to the hue or shade of something, none of which capture the essence of consistency.

5. Which of the following structures is found in the upper respiratory system alongside the Pharynx?

• A. Larynx
• B. Trachea
• C. Pharynx
• D. Bronchi

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Larynx.' The larynx is indeed located in the upper respiratory system alongside the pharynx. Positioned below the pharynx and above the trachea, the larynx is crucial for breathing and sound production. The trachea and bronchi are part of the lower respiratory system and are situated below the larynx, making them incorrect choices in this context.
