Which of the following sentences uses the correct form of the verb?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is 'She was going to the store.' This sentence uses the correct form of the past continuous tense, which is appropriate for describing an action in progress in the past. Choice A is the only option that uses the correct verb form. Choice C uses the present perfect tense, which is not suitable for describing a past action in progress. Choice D is incorrect as it lacks the auxiliary verb 'has' in the sentence structure.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Restrict.' To stanch a wound means to stop or restrict the flow of blood. Choice A, 'Expand,' is incorrect as it means to make something larger. Choice C, 'Release,' is incorrect as it means to set something free. Choice D, 'Avoid,' is incorrect as it means to keep away or prevent something.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Cure. A panacea is a remedy or cure for all diseases. While 'poison' (choice A) is the opposite of a cure, 'treatment' (choice C) is a general approach to addressing an illness rather than a universal solution, and 'remedy' (choice D) is synonymous with cure but not as closely related to the concept of a universal remedy as 'cure'.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B, 'Destructive.' Pernicious means causing great harm or damage. Choice A, 'Harmless,' is the opposite of pernicious. Choice C, 'Infectious,' refers to the ability of a disease to spread. Choice D, 'Helpful,' is also the opposite of pernicious and does not capture the negative connotation associated with the term.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Exhausted.' Lethargic describes a state of feeling sluggish or lacking energy, which aligns with being exhausted. Choice A, 'Energetic,' is the opposite of lethargic. Choice C, 'Restless,' implies a different state of agitation than lethargy. Choice D, 'Hyperactive,' describes excessive activity, which contrasts with the lethargic state.
