Question 1 of 5
Which of the following pieces of writing should include citations?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A because when writing a comparison of two different Shakespeare plays, it is important to cite specific quotes or references to support your analysis. Citations help to give credit to the original sources and lend credibility to your arguments. In contrast, choices B, C, and D do not necessarily require citations as they are based on personal opinions, observations, or experiences rather than on external sources or research. Choice B is a news article that should cite sources but is not the focus of the question. Choices C and D are personal descriptions or essays that are based on personal thoughts and experiences, hence do not require citations.
Question 2 of 5
Choose the correct form of the verb: 'She ______ the best student in her class.'
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: is. In this sentence, "She" is the subject, which is singular. Therefore, the correct verb form to use with a singular subject is "is." The verb "is" is the present tense form of the verb "to be" that agrees with the singular subject "She." Summary: - Choice B: are is incorrect because it is the plural form of the verb "to be" and does not agree with the singular subject "She." - Choice C: were is incorrect because it is the past tense form of the verb "to be" and does not fit the present tense context of the sentence. - Choice D: am is incorrect because it is the first-person singular form of the verb "to be" and does not match the third-person singular subject "She."
Question 3 of 5
Which sentence contains a homonym?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: "I can't bear to see this." This sentence contains the homonym "bear," which can mean to endure or to carry. In this context, "bear" is used to express the inability to tolerate something. The other choices do not contain homonyms. A and D use "bear" in the sense of carrying or having a resemblance, while B refers to the animal "bear." Thus, C is the correct answer as it demonstrates the use of the homonym "bear" with a different meaning.
Question 4 of 5
Which of the following is a correctly punctuated simple sentence?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A because it contains a subject (Leah and Jerry) and a verb phrase (spent the last few hours in the garden smelling the roses and tulips) that forms a complete thought. The sentence is properly punctuated with a comma separating the two actions. B is incorrect as it is a compound sentence, C is incorrect as it is a complex sentence, and D is incorrect as it is a complex sentence with a dependent clause. A is the only choice that is a simple sentence with correct punctuation.
Question 5 of 5
Select the meaning of the word 'intransigent' in the sentence: 'Jolie has remained intransigent in her stance on the issue.'
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Stubborn. 'Intransigent' means unwilling to compromise or change one's views. In the sentence, Jolie's unwavering stance on the issue indicates stubbornness. Indefinite (B) means unclear or vague, which does not fit the context. Passionate (C) means having strong emotions or beliefs, but it doesn't capture the refusal to compromise. Outspoken (D) means vocal or candid, which is not the same as being unyielding.
