Question 3 of 5
The _____ student was not well liked by his peers.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is 'Detestable.' In this context, 'detestable' means deserving intense dislike, which fits the sentence describing a student who is not well-liked. 'Geniality' (choice A) means warmth and friendliness, which is the opposite of what is described in the sentence. 'Affably' (choice B) means in a friendly and pleasant manner, which doesn't convey the idea of being disliked. 'Gregarious' (choice C) means sociable and outgoing, which is also not suitable for describing someone who is not well-liked.
Question 4 of 5
An apartment is advertised as being furnished. What does the sentence mean?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'It is equipped with articles.' In real estate terms, when an apartment is advertised as 'furnished', it means that the apartment comes equipped with furniture and other necessary items. This choice directly reflects the meaning of a furnished apartment. The other choices are incorrect because being furnished does not imply that the apartment has just been repainted (B), requires the first month's rent to be paid in advance (C), or includes utility bills in the rental cost (D).
Question 5 of 5
What does the quoted word 'impervious' mean in the following sentence?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'Not affected.' In the context provided, 'impervious' means that the client is not affected by pain. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately capture the meaning of 'impervious' in this context. 'Coping well' implies dealing with pain effectively, 'enjoying' does not reflect being unaffected by pain, and 'very sensitive' is the opposite of what 'impervious' means.
