1. Which word is not used correctly in the context of the following sentence: 'There is no real distinction between the two treatment protocols recommended online.'

• A. real
• B. among
• C. protocols
• D. online

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct word that should replace 'among' in the sentence is 'between' when referring to a distinction between two things. 'Among' is used when referring to more than two items or when the items are part of a group. In this context, 'between' is more appropriate as there are only two treatment protocols being compared.

2. Which word is not spelled correctly in the context of the following sentence? Nothing can be more delightful than a late-night swim in the reservoir.

• A. Nothing
• B. delightful
• C. then
• D. reservoir

Correct answer: C

Rationale: In the context of the sentence, the word 'then' is used incorrectly. The correct word that should be used is 'than,' which is used to make comparisons. The sentence should read, 'Nothing can be more delightful than a late-night swim in the reservoir.' The other choices 'Nothing,' 'delightful,' and 'reservoir' are spelled correctly and are contextually appropriate in the sentence.

3. Select the word or phrase that makes the following sentence grammatically correct. If Angela attends the seminar tomorrow, she ___________ the employee discount.

• A. gave
• B. gives
• C. will given
• D. will be given

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'D: will be given.' In the sentence, the future passive voice is needed to convey that Angela will receive the employee discount if she attends the seminar. 'Will be given' is the appropriate phrase to express this passive construction. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not form the correct future passive structure required in the sentence.

4. Select the word or phrase that makes the following sentence grammatically correct. After ___________ for an entire afternoon, the resident felt revitalized.

• A. having rest
• B. resting
• C. rested
• D. rest

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'B - resting' because it is the present participle form of the verb 'rest' and fits appropriately in the sentence structure 'After resting for an entire afternoon, the resident felt revitalized.' The present participle is used to show an ongoing action that happened before the feeling of revitalization. Choice A 'having rest' is incorrect as it does not convey the continuous action needed in this context. Choice C 'rested' is incorrect as it is the past tense form and does not match the tense of the sentence. Choice D 'rest' is incorrect as it is the base form of the verb and does not provide the needed -ing form for the sentence.

5. You _________ on your final exam.

• A. Worked
• B. Forgot
• C. Did well
• D. Done good

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 'C: Did well.' This phrase is commonly used to describe performance on an exam. 'Worked' does not fit the context of exam performance. 'Forgot' is incorrect as it implies forgetting something related to the exam. 'Done good' is grammatically incorrect; the correct form is 'done well.' Therefore, 'Did well' is the most appropriate choice in this context.
