Question 1 of 5
John Smith was the man ____ photographed the landscape.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: In this sentence, 'who' is the correct relative pronoun to refer to a person, John Smith. 'Who' is used for subjects, while 'whom' is used for objects. 'Which' is used for things or animals, and 'that' can refer to both people and things, but 'who' is the most appropriate choice here as it refers specifically to a person, John Smith, who is the one performing the action of photographing the landscape.
Question 2 of 5
Which of the following suffixes would change the verb 'manage' into an adjective?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct suffix to change the verb 'manage' into an adjective is '-able.' When added to 'manage,' it forms the adjective 'manageable,' which means capable of being managed. Choice A ('-ed') is a past participle suffix, not an adjective-forming suffix. Choice B ('-ible') is used to form adjectives meaning 'capable of' but is not the correct choice in this context. Choice D ('-er') is typically used to form agent nouns rather than adjectives.
Question 3 of 5
Which of the following examples is a correctly punctuated compound sentence?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Option A presents a correctly punctuated compound sentence. It consists of two independent clauses 'Condors are protected by laws' and 'many people fear they will soon become extinct,' which are appropriately joined by a comma and the coordinating conjunction 'but.' In contrast, in option B, the sentence only lists items without independent clauses. Option C combines phrases without independent clauses, and Option D incorrectly uses a comma before the coordinating conjunction 'but' without an independent clause following it.
Question 4 of 5
Which of the following is important to do while writing the first draft of a research paper?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: When writing the first draft of a research paper, it is crucial to include the complete structure, which consists of the introduction, body, and conclusion. This approach helps in organizing your thoughts and ideas cohesively, ensuring that your paper flows logically. Choice A is not directly related to the drafting process. Choice B suggests an incorrect sequence by proposing to write the conclusion first, which should actually be crafted after the body of the paper. Choice D is important but typically done during the editing and revision stages rather than in the initial draft.
Question 5 of 5
Ibexes are wild mountain goats that live in the Alps and the mountains of Asia. They climb very steep slopes. They are sure-footed and can easily leap from rock to rock. In winter, they replace their summer coat with thicker hair and a wooly undercoat.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is 'Ibexes have adapted to life in the mountains' because it serves as a concluding sentence that summarizes the content of the paragraph. This statement encapsulates the information provided about ibexes living in the Alps and Asian mountains, climbing steep slopes, being sure-footed, and changing their coats in winter. Choice A is incorrect because the text does not specifically mention their agility. Choice B is incorrect as the text only mentions the Alps and Asian mountains, not lowlands. Choice C is also incorrect as the text mentions ibexes climbing steep slopes, not just liking to do so.
