Question 1 of 5
Which of the following sentences correctly uses apostrophes?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Choice A, 'Our home's roof needs repairing,' is the correct answer as it correctly uses the apostrophe to indicate possession. In this sentence, the apostrophe is used to show that the roof belongs to the home. Choice B is incorrect because it should be 'My grandparents' families' to show that multiple families belong to the grandparents. Choice C is incorrect as the sentence should be 'There are many parks located across the country' without using an apostrophe. Choice D is incorrect because it should be 'All of the women's things' to indicate possession by the women.
Question 2 of 5
According to the prefix 'intra-,' which of the following is the best definition of the word 'intravenous'?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The prefix 'intra-' means 'within,' so 'intravenous' refers to something within veins. Choice A, 'Across veins,' is incorrect as 'intra-' does not indicate movement across but within. Choice B, 'Between veins,' is incorrect because 'intra-' does not imply a relationship between two separate veins. Choice D, 'Outside veins,' is incorrect as 'intra-' signifies something inside or within, not outside.

Question 5 of 5
Which sentence correctly answers the question: What were you doing when the thunderstorm started?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is 'C: I was mowing the lawn.' This sentence correctly uses the past continuous tense to indicate an action that was in progress at a specific time in the past when the thunderstorm started. Choice A 'I mowed the lawn' is in simple past tense, not past continuous, and does not convey the ongoing nature of the action.

Choice D 'I have mowed the lawn' is in present perfect tense, not past continuous, and does not convey the ongoing action at a specific past time.
