Question 3 of 5
Which of the following is the correct tense used in the bold part in this sentence? My grandpa WILL BE WRITING a memoir...
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A, Future progressive. 'Will be writing' indicates an ongoing action that will occur in the future, which is the future progressive tense. Choice B, Past perfect, is incorrect as it refers to an action completed before a specified time in the past.

Question 4 of 5
What is the most likely context of the following conversation: 'Yup, you too... hey wait, what are you up to tonight, anyways?'
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The informal tone and casual language, such as 'hey wait' and 'what are you up to tonight, anyways?' suggest that the speaker is a friend inquiring about the plans of another friend. This type of conversation is typical among peers and not in a professional setting, ruling out choices A and D. Choice B is incorrect because there is no indication of a debate or formal speech practice in the conversation.
Question 5 of 5
Which word in the following sentence is a homophone of 'I'll'?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: 'Aisle' is the correct answer. A homophone is a word that is pronounced the same as another word but has a different meaning or spelling. In this sentence, 'I'll' is a homophone of 'aisle' as they sound the same but have distinct definitions and spellings. Choices A, C, and D do not fit the criteria of being homophones of 'I'll'.
