Question 1 of 4

During the storm, the glass in three of the windows ___________.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Were broken.' In this sentence, the subject 'glass in three of the windows' is plural, so the correct verb form should also be plural, which is 'were broken.' The verb 'broken' in the original sentence is in the past participle form, which is used correctly in the corrected answer choice 'D.' Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not match the subject in number ('glass in three of the windows') and do not use the correct past participle form of the verb.

Question 2 of 4

The nurse did not think that the symptoms ___________ an emergency room visit.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: In this sentence, the word that best fits is 'warranted,' meaning that the symptoms did not justify or necessitate an emergency room visit. 'Desired' means wanted or wished for, 'Guaranteed' means assured, and 'Should have been' is not the appropriate phrase in this context. Therefore, 'warranted' is the correct choice for this question.

Question 3 of 4

The mailperson's job is to put the __________ in every mailbox on the block.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: In this context, 'Envelopes' is the correct choice as it refers to the items (envelopes) that the mailperson is responsible for delivering. The other choices are incorrect: 'Mail' (Choice B) is too general and does not specify the items to be delivered, 'Block' (Choice C) is the location and does not make sense in the context of delivering mail, and 'Every' (Choice D) is an adjective that does not complete the sentence logically.

Question 4 of 4

The student ___________ for the final exam.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Was studying,' which is the past continuous form describing an action that was happening at a specific time in the past. Choice B, 'Didn't study,' is incorrect because it's in simple past tense, not the continuous form required by the context. Choice C, 'Studied hard,' is incorrect as it lacks the continuous aspect required by the context. Choice D, 'Would have studied,' is in the wrong tense; it is a hypothetical past action, not an action in progress in the past.
