Question 1 of 5
Which of the following sentences is an example of the third person narrative voice?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A because it is written in the third person. Third person narrative voice uses pronouns like 'he,' 'she,' 'it,' or 'they' to describe characters or events, maintaining a sense of distance from the narrator's personal perspective. In this sentence, 'He was scared when he got on the plane,' the subject 'he' is being described from an external viewpoint. This narrative style allows the narrator to present events objectively without inserting personal opinions or experiences, enhancing the reader's ability to focus on the story's characters and plot.

Question 2 of 5
Which of the following best represents the meaning of the word 'indiscriminate'?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D, 'miscellaneous.' 'Indiscriminate' means done at random or without careful judgment. In this context, 'miscellaneous' is the closest synonym representing this lack of discrimination or selectivity. The other options do not accurately capture the essence of 'indiscriminate.' 'Selective' implies making choices, the opposite of 'indiscriminate.' 'Noisy' and 'distinct' are unrelated to the meaning of 'indiscriminate.' Therefore, 'miscellaneous' is the most appropriate choice that aligns with the definition of 'indiscriminate.'
Question 3 of 5
Which of the following sentences is a complex sentence?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: A complex sentence contains an independent clause and at least one dependent clause. In choice A, 'When Jung-hoon found a seat on the bus' is the dependent clause, and 'he hoped he would have a quiet ride' is the independent clause, making it a complex sentence. Choices B, C, and D do not contain this structure; therefore, they are not complex sentences. Choice B is a compound sentence with two independent clauses joined by a coordinating conjunction. Choice C is a simple sentence with only one independent clause. Choice D is also a simple sentence with only one independent clause.

Question 4 of 5
Using the sentences above, which of the following sentence orders best forms an organized, logical paragraph?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct order to form a logical paragraph is 3, 4, 2, 1. Starting with sentence 3 sets the scene by mentioning the dog and owner asleep in their home. Then, sentence 4 introduces the conflict with an intruder breaking into the house. Sentence 2 follows logically as it describes the dog's protective response to the intruder. Finally, sentence 1 concludes the paragraph by emphasizing the bond between a dog and its owner. This sequence flows logically and cohesively, making option C the correct choice.

Question 5 of 5
Which of the following sentences would be the best topic sentence for the paragraph?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The best topic sentence for the paragraph should introduce the main idea of the benefits of a daily walk, focusing on both physical and psychological aspects.
