Question 1 of 5

Choice D, 'suppress,' means to prevent something from happening or to restrain.
Question 2 of 5
Which word correctly completes the sentence? 'I ___ the package on the table.'
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is 'C: Laid.' 'Laid' is the correct past tense form of 'lay,' which means to put something down. 'Layed' in choice A is incorrect as the past tense of 'lay' is 'laid,' not 'layed.'
Choice B, 'Drop,' is incorrect as it does not fit the context of placing something on the table.
Choice D, 'Lay,' is the base form of the verb and does not fit the sentence in the past tense.
Question 3 of 5
He tried to remember the names of all the people who were there that night.
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The word 'that' is the correct relative pronoun to use in this context to refer to the people who were present that night. 'Whom' is used for objects of a verb or preposition, 'which' is used for things, and 'whose' is a possessive pronoun.
Question 4 of 5
What is the correct verb to complete the sentence? 'Economics ___ my least favorite subject at school.'
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'Is.' In this sentence, 'Economics' is being treated as a singular subject, so the verb should also be singular. 'Is' is the correct singular form of the verb to agree with the singular subject 'Economics.'
Choice B, 'Been,' is incorrect because it is the past participle form of the verb 'be' and does not agree with the singular subject 'Economics.'
Choice C, 'Am,' is incorrect because it is the first-person singular form of the verb 'be' and does not agree with the singular subject 'Economics.'
Choice D, 'Are,' is incorrect because it is the plural form of the verb 'be' and does not agree with the singular subject 'Economics.'
Question 5 of 5
Which word is NOT used correctly in the sentence? 'A sentence must always begin with a capital letter, but many people forget this rule.'
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is 'D: Capitol.' In this context, 'Capitol' is incorrect as it refers to a building where a legislative body meets. The correct term for uppercase letters is 'capital.'
Choice A, 'must always,' is used correctly to emphasize the necessity of starting a sentence with a capital letter.
Choice B, 'simple,' is not the incorrect word in the sentence.
Choice C, 'forget,' is also used appropriately in the sentence to indicate the action of neglecting the rule.
