Which of the following types of writing would include a bibliography of sources at the end?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: A research paper typically includes a bibliography of sources to document the research conducted. In this case, a research paper on the Great Migration would require a bibliography to cite the sources used. Choices A, C, and D do not typically require a bibliography as they are not research-based and focus more on personal or fictional content.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'D: Repeat.' 'Reiterate' means to say something again, making 'repeat' a synonym. 'Refine' means to improve, 'relegate' means to dismiss to an inferior position, and 'regale' means to entertain or amuse, which do not align in meaning with 'reiterate.'

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The complete predicate is 'explained that we would be the next to see the doctor.' In a sentence, the complete predicate includes the main verb (explained) and all the words that complete its meaning (that we would be the next to see the doctor). Choices B, C, and D do not constitute the complete predicate as they do not include the main verb 'explained' and all associated words that complete its meaning.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B. 'Apology' transforms into 'apologize' when the suffix is added, changing the word from a noun to a verb. In this case, the suffix '-ize' is added to the noun 'apology' to form the verb 'apologize.' Choices A, C, and D do not involve a transformation from a noun to a verb when a suffix is added. 'Biology' and 'biologist' are related but not in a noun-to-verb transformation. 'Happy' and 'happily' involve an adjective-to-adverb transformation. 'Mineral' and 'mineralogy' are related terms in the same field but do not show a noun-to-verb change.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is 'C: Email message starting with 'Dear Professor:'. In academic settings, it is essential to use formal and respectful language when addressing instructors. Starting the email with 'Dear Professor:' demonstrates professionalism and respect. Choice A is too informal for a professional setting. Choice B is vague and lacks the necessary level of formality. Choice D showcases unprofessional behavior by not acknowledging missing the appointment until later.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The simple subject is the noun or pronoun that the sentence is about. In this sentence, the subject is 'man' because it is the entity performing the action of watching. 'The flustered man' is a noun phrase but not the simple subject as it includes an article and an adjective. 'Watched' is a verb and 'train' is the object of the action, not the subject. Therefore, 'man' is the correct simple subject in this sentence.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct use of quotation marks involves enclosing the exact words of a speaker, with punctuation placed inside the quotes. Choice A is the correct answer as it correctly uses quotation marks to enclose the spoken words 'Did you finish your homework?' with the appropriate punctuation inside the quotes. Choices B, C, and D incorrectly position the quotation marks or omit necessary punctuation, making them grammatically incorrect. In choice B, the closing quotation mark is missing. In choice C, the punctuation is placed outside the closing quotation mark, and in choice D, the quotation mark is incorrectly placed after 'homework,' disrupting the flow of the quoted speech.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct suffix to change the verb 'manage' into an adjective is '-able.' When added to 'manage,' it forms the adjective 'manageable,' which means capable of being managed. Choice A ('-ed') is a past participle suffix, not an adjective-forming suffix. Choice B ('-ible') is used to form adjectives meaning 'capable of' but is not the correct choice in this context. Choice D ('-er') is typically used to form agent nouns rather than adjectives.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: When writing the first draft of a research paper, it is crucial to include the complete structure, which consists of the introduction, body, and conclusion. This approach helps in organizing your thoughts and ideas cohesively, ensuring that your paper flows logically. Choice A is not directly related to the drafting process. Choice B suggests an incorrect sequence by proposing to write the conclusion first, which should actually be crafted after the body of the paper. Choice D is important but typically done during the editing and revision stages rather than in the initial draft.
