Question 3 of 5
In the sentence, 'The masked villain silently laughed while watching the hero struggle to escape,' what part of speech is the word 'silently'?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The word 'silently' is an adverb in this sentence as it modifies the verb 'laughed' by describing how the villain laughed. Adverbs often describe how, when, where, or to what extent an action is performed. In this case, 'silently' describes the manner in which the villain laughed, making it an adverb. Adjectives describe nouns, verbs show action or state of being, prepositions show relationships between words in a sentence, and adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs.

Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is 'children's.' In this context, the sentence is referring to books that belong to or are associated with children. To show possession, an apostrophe is used followed by the letter 's.' Therefore, 'children's' is the correct form to indicate that the books are related to children.
Question 5 of 5
What is the term for the spaces between the ribs that contain the veins?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct term for the spaces between the ribs that contain the veins is 'intercostal spaces.' Intercostal spaces are the specific anatomical regions between the ribs where the veins are located. The term 'costal spaces' in option B is incorrect as 'costal' pertains to the ribs themselves, not the spaces between them. Option C, 'spaces,' is too general and does not identify the anatomical location. Option D, 'inter spaces,' is not a valid anatomical term. Therefore, the correct answer is 'intercostal spaces,' which precisely describes the spaces between the ribs.
