Correct Answer: B

Rationale: In this sentence, the correct word to use after 'and' is a pronoun that would refer to Nurse Junko as another person. Since 'Nurse Junko' is a singular female subject, the appropriate pronoun to use is 'she.' Therefore, the correct choice is 'she.' Choice 'A' ('me') is incorrect because it is an object pronoun, not a subject pronoun. Choice 'C' ('them') is incorrect because it is a plural pronoun and does not agree with the singular subject 'Nurse Junko.' Choice 'D' ('him') is incorrect because it is a masculine pronoun, while the subject 'Nurse Junko' is a singular female, so the pronoun should be feminine.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The sentence is written in the first-person point of view, so the appropriate pronoun to use as a substitute for 'Francesca, Bill, and I' would be 'we.' This choice maintains the correct subject-verb agreement and ensures consistency in the sentence structure by keeping the pronoun in the nominative case. Choice A, 'They,' is incorrect as it changes the subject of the sentence, leading to a lack of agreement between the pronoun and the verb. Choices C and D, 'Them' and 'Us,' are both objective pronouns and do not fit the role of the subject in this sentence.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct pronouns to use as objects of the verb 'told' are 'her' and 'me.' Therefore, the grammatically correct sentence is: 'Dr. Chu told her and me to take a break for lunch.' 'Her' is used as the object form of 'she,' and 'me' is the object form of 'I' in this context. Choice A is incorrect because 'me' should come before 'her' in the sentence. Choice C is a duplicate of the correct answer. Choice D is incorrect because 'she' should be 'her' and 'I' should be 'me' to function as objects in the sentence.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: In the sentence provided, the word 'lay' is used incorrectly. The correct past tense of 'lay' in this context should be 'lay.' Therefore, the sentence should read, 'Dr. Leo laid the paperwork out upon the table for us to view.' 'Laid' is the past participle of 'lay' when it requires an object. In this sentence, 'lay' is the correct choice as it is used without an object. The other choices ('upon,' 'us,' 'view') are used appropriately in the sentence and do not contain any errors.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The verb 'raised' should be used in the past tense to match the past event (lecture was over). Therefore, the correct phrase is 'raised their hands to ask questions.' In English, when referring to a past event, the past tense of the verb is typically used to maintain proper grammar and clarity. Choice A is incorrect because it uses the present tense 'raise' instead of the past tense. Choice C is incorrect as it uses the present perfect tense 'have raised,' which is not suitable for a simple past event. Choice D is incorrect as it uses the present continuous tense 'are raising,' which is not appropriate for a completed past action.
