Question 1 of 5
Which of the following nouns is written in the correct plural form?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: potatoes. "Potatoes" is the correct plural form of the noun "potato" because it follows the standard English pluralization rule by adding "-es" to form the plural. In contrast, choices A, B, and C have irregular plural forms; "vertebrae" is the plural of "vertebra," "geese" is the plural of "goose," and "octopuses" is an incorrect plural form of "octopus" as the correct plural is "octopi" or "octopodes." Therefore, "potatoes" is the only noun in the list that is written in the correct plural form based on standard English pluralization rules.
Question 2 of 5
Typically, water that has evaporated remains in the sky in cloud form for less than ten days before falling to Earth again as precipitation. Which of the following parts of speech is 'remains' as used in the sentence?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The word "remains" is a verb in the sentence. Here's why: 1. Function: It is the main verb in the sentence, indicating the action of the water staying in the sky. 2. Action: Verbs show actions or states of being, and "remains" shows the state of the water staying. 3. Inflection: Verbs can be inflected to show tense, mood, aspect, and agreement. In this case, "remains" is inflected for present tense. 4. Context: The word "remains" fits the sentence structure as a verb, connecting the subject (water) to the predicate (staying in the sky). In summary, 'remains' is a verb because it functions as the main action in the sentence, showing the state of the water, and fits the context and structure of the sentence. The other choices (noun, adjective, adverb) do not accurately describe the function of 'remains' in the
Question 3 of 5
Which of the following root words would be used in a word related to the body?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: corp. The root word "corp" is derived from the Latin word "corpus," which means body. Therefore, it is directly related to the body. Choices B (auto), C (man), and D (bio) are not related to the body. Auto pertains to self or automatic, man refers to human beings, and bio is related to life or living organisms. Therefore, A is the correct choice for a word related to the body.
Question 4 of 5
What is the complete subject in the sentence: Sandra's principal reason for choosing the job was that it would be full-time and would offer benefits?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The complete subject in a sentence includes the main noun along with all the words that describe or modify it. In this sentence, the main noun is "reason," and the words that describe it are "Sandra's principal for choosing the job." Therefore, the complete subject is "Sandra's principal reason for choosing the job" (Option A). Option B is incorrect because it is missing the crucial part "for choosing the job." Option C is incorrect as it lacks the entire descriptive phrase. Option D is incorrect as it only includes the person's name without any additional details about the reason.
Question 5 of 5
Which of the following sentences has the correct subject-verb agreement?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B - "The employer decided that he could not, due to the high cost of health care, afford to offer other benefits to his employees." The subject "employer" is singular and agrees with the singular verb "decided." "He" is the singular pronoun that correctly refers back to the singular subject. The verb "could not afford" is in agreement with the singular subject "employer." Choice A has a plural subject "horse breed" and a singular verb "has," which is incorrect. Choice C has a singular subject "Puerto Rico" and a plural verb "includes," which is incorrect. Choice D has a singular subject "Each" and a singular verb "decides," but the pronoun "they" is incorrectly used instead of "he or she."
