Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Me. In the sentence, "My sister gave the chocolate bar to my friend and me," 'me' is the correct pronoun to use as the object of the verb 'gave.' The pronoun 'me' is used when the person is the object of the action. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because 'myself' is a reflexive pronoun used for emphasis or to refer back to the subject, 'us' is the object pronoun for plural, and 'we' is a subject pronoun.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: offensive. The word 'repugnant' means causing a strong feeling of dislike or disgust, which aligns with the definition of offensive. Choice A, destructive, refers to causing harm or damage, which is not the direct meaning of 'repugnant.' Choice B, selective, pertains to choosing carefully based on preferences, not related to 'repugnant.' Choice C, collective, refers to a group or whole, which is unrelated to the negative connotation of 'repugnant.' Therefore, the best-fitting choice is D, offensive, as it captures the essence of the word 'repugnant' accurately.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Themselves. In the sentence, 'Most children must learn for themselves the importance of good manners,' 'themselves' is the reflexive pronoun that correctly refers back to the subject 'children.' 'Themself' (A) and 'theirself' (B) are non-standard forms and are not grammatically correct. 'Theirselves' (C) is also incorrect as 'theirs' is a possessive pronoun, not a reflexive pronoun. Therefore, D is the only grammatically correct option that maintains subject-verb agreement and properly refers back to the subject in the sentence.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because the verb "wore" agrees with the subject "I" in past tense. The other choices have verbs that do not match the subject or are not in the correct tense. A has "saw" which is the past tense of "see" but the subject is "I" not "you." B has "sang" which is the past tense of "sing" but again the subject is "I" not "the national anthem." C has "ran" which is the past tense of "run" but the subject is "I" not "Nibbles the Rabbit."

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: form. In the context of the sentence, the word "form" is not spelled correctly. The sentence describes a nurse looking for a missing patient, so the correct spelling should be "room" instead of "form." The other choices (A: patient, C: nurse, D: missing) are spelled correctly and are relevant to the context of the sentence. Therefore, the word "form" is the only one that is misspelled in this context.
