Question 1 of 5
Which of the following prefixes attached to a root would indicate a sequence of events?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'Sub-'. The prefix 'Sub-' indicates something that comes after or follows, suggesting a sequence of events. When attached to a root word, 'Sub-' implies a subsequent action or event. In contrast, 'Anti-' denotes opposition or against, 'Co-' signifies partnership or joint action, and 'Post-' means after in time or order. Therefore, 'Sub-' is the most suitable prefix for indicating a sequence of events among the options provided.
Question 2 of 5
In the sentence 'Taylor sat under the tree,' what is the subject?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The subject of a sentence is the person, place, thing, or idea that is performing the action or being described. In the sentence 'Taylor sat under the tree,' 'Taylor' is the one performing the action 'sat,' making 'Taylor' the subject of the sentence. Therefore, 'D: Taylor' is the correct answer.
Question 3 of 5
Which of the following sentences demonstrates proper subject-verb agreement?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D, 'The boy or the girls come to school late.' This sentence demonstrates proper subject-verb agreement. When using 'or' to connect subjects, the verb should agree with the subject closest to it. In this case, 'come' agrees with 'girls,' making it the correct choice for subject-verb agreement. The other options have subject-verb agreement errors: Option A should be 'The boys and girl visit my house' to match 'visit' with the plural subject 'boys and girl'; Option B should be 'The boys or the girls sing in the choir' to match 'sing' with the plural subject 'boys or the girls'; Option C should be 'The boys and girl in our club are in the cafe' to match 'are' with the plural subject 'boys and girl.'
Question 4 of 5
Which of the following is the correct definition for the prefix 'inter' as used in words like 'interstate' or 'international'
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The prefix "inter-" means "between or among," as seen in words like "interstate" (between states) and "international" (between nations).
Question 5 of 5
Which of the following sentences demonstrates proper subject-verb agreement?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: In sentence D, 'Physics' is a singular subject, so the verb 'is' correctly agrees with it. The other sentences contain subject-verb agreement errors. In sentence A, 'sciences' is plural, so 'are' should be used instead of 'is'. In sentence B, 'News' is singular, so 'travels' should be used instead of 'travel'. In sentence C, 'Measles' is singular, so 'spreads' should replace 'spread'. Therefore, only sentence D demonstrates proper subject-verb agreement.
