Select the word or phrase that makes this sentence grammatically correct: 'After waking up, Dean eyed the cheesecake ____.'

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct adverb to describe Dean's action of eyeing the cheesecake is 'hungrily.' Adverbs modify verbs, in this case, 'eyed,' making the sentence grammatically correct. 'Hungry' (choice A) is an adjective and does not fit the sentence structure. 'Hungriest' (choice B) is a superlative adjective and is not suitable to modify the verb 'eyed.' 'More hungry' (choice D) is a comparative construction and is also not the correct form to modify the verb.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct word that should replace 'among' in the sentence is 'between' when referring to a distinction between two things. 'Among' is used when referring to more than two items or when the items are part of a group. In this context, 'between' is more appropriate as there are only two treatment protocols being compared.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The word 'hear' is misspelled; it should be 'here.' In the context of the sentence provided, 'hear' does not fit logically and should be replaced with 'here' to convey the intended meaning. 'Climate,' 'inappropriate,' and 'skiing' are all spelled correctly and are appropriate in the context of the sentence. 'Hear' is a homophone and does not make sense in this context.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: In this sentence, 'who' is the correct pronoun to refer to 'Children,' indicating that children are the ones who obey their parents. Using 'who' makes the sentence grammatically correct by connecting the subject 'children' with the verb 'obey.' The pronoun 'which' is used for things, not people, so it is incorrect. 'Should' and 'to' do not fit in the context of the sentence and do not provide the necessary connection between 'children' and 'obey.' Therefore, the correct choice is 'who.'

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The word 'recipe' in the sentence should be 'receipt.' In this context, 'receipt' refers to a proof of payment, whereas 'recipe' is a set of instructions for preparing a dish. Therefore, 'receipt' is the correct word to use in the given sentence. Choice A, 'ringing,' is used correctly as it means the process of totaling the cost of the items. Choice B, 'cashier,' is also used correctly to refer to the person handling the transaction. Choice D, 'change,' is appropriately used to indicate the money returned after payment.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Our.' In this sentence, the possessive pronoun 'Our' is needed to show ownership and make the sentence grammatically correct. 'Screaming our took the shopkeeper by surprise' indicates that the shopkeeper was surprised by the screaming of a group or individuals related to 'our.' Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they are pronouns referring to people ('We', 'They', 'Them'), not possessive pronouns that indicate ownership.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct word to fill in the blank is 'break.' In this context, 'break' refers to a pause or rest, which is what Dr. Capra needed after completing the intense surgery. 'Brake' (choice A) refers to a device used to slow or stop a vehicle. 'Brink' (choice C) means the edge or verge of something. 'Broke' (choice D) is the past tense of 'break' and is grammatically incorrect in this sentence.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The sentence is in the past tense, indicating that the action occurred before the present moment. 'Began' is the correct past tense form of the verb 'begin' in this context. It shows that Stan started reviewing his class notes in the past. Choice A ('begins') is incorrect as it represents present tense. Choice B ('begun') is incorrect as it is the past participle form and does not fit the sentence structure. Choice C ('begin') is incorrect as it is the base form of the verb and not appropriate for the past tense context of the sentence.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct phrase to complete the sentence is 'toward peace was.' In this context, 'toward peace' is the appropriate prepositional phrase to indicate the direction or goal of the work being done. Additionally, the verb tense should be in the past tense ('was') to match the structure of the sentence. Choice A and C are incorrect because 'to peace' does not convey the intended sense of direction or goal. Choice D is incorrect as 'am' is present tense, which does not agree with the past tense structure of the sentence.
