Question 1 of 9

Another word for ASSURED is?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The word 'assured' means to have made certain or confident of something. 'Confirmed' is a synonym that aligns with this meaning. Therefore, the correct answer is A, 'Confirmed the truth of.' Choice B, 'Sympathized with,' does not have a similar meaning to 'assured.' Choice C, 'Denied the truth of,' is the opposite in meaning to 'assured.' Choice D, 'Made known to,' does not convey the same sense of certainty as 'assured.'

Question 2 of 9

He had already finished studying at a(n) _____ when he was called to join the army.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: In the context provided, the correct answer is 'university.' The term 'university' is used to refer to higher education institutions that offer undergraduate and postgraduate degrees. While 'academy,' 'college,' and 'institute' are also types of educational institutions, 'university' is the most fitting choice here as it best aligns with the idea of completing higher education before joining the army.

Question 3 of 9

Identify the sentence with a misplaced modifier.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A because the phrase 'walking to school' seems to modify 'a dollar,' which is illogical. The intended meaning is that the child found the dollar while walking to school. In sentence B, the modifier is correctly placed at the beginning of the sentence, indicating that the child found the dollar while walking to school. Choices C and D do not contain any misplaced modifiers.

Question 6 of 9

Caudal refers to which part of the human torso?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Caudal refers to the bottom part of the torso. In anatomical terms, 'caudal' means situated near or toward the tail or the hind part of the body. This term is commonly used in anatomy to describe structures closer to the feet or lower part of the body. Therefore, 'Bottom' is the correct answer as it best represents the caudal region. Choices 'Top,' 'Middle,' and 'Front' do not accurately describe the caudal aspect of the human torso.

Question 7 of 9

What does Latent mean?

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Present but not active or visible.' Latent refers to something that is existing but not yet developed or manifest. Choice A, 'Easily seen,' is incorrect as latent implies the opposite - not easily seen. Choice C, 'Quick to react,' is incorrect as latent does not imply a quick reaction but rather a hidden or dormant state. Choice D, 'Actively growing,' is incorrect as latent suggests the opposite - not actively growing but rather inactive or concealed.
