Which word is not spelled correctly in the context of the following sentence? The itinerant teacher moved continually from one school to another within the district.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The word 'iterate' is not spelled correctly in the sentence. The correct word that should be used here is 'itinerant,' which means constantly traveling from place to place, especially for work. In this context, 'iterate' does not fit as it means to repeat a process or utterance. 'Continually' is spelled correctly and means happening without interruption. 'Within' and 'district' are also spelled correctly and are used appropriately in the sentence. Therefore, choice A is the correct answer.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: In this sentence, the correct word to use after 'and' is a pronoun that would refer to Nurse Junko as another person. Since 'Nurse Junko' is a singular female subject, the appropriate pronoun to use is 'she.' Therefore, the correct choice is 'she.' Choice 'A' ('me') is incorrect because it is an object pronoun, not a subject pronoun. Choice 'C' ('them') is incorrect because it is a plural pronoun and does not agree with the singular subject 'Nurse Junko.' Choice 'D' ('him') is incorrect because it is a masculine pronoun, while the subject 'Nurse Junko' is a singular female, so the pronoun should be feminine.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: In the sentence, 'The nurse told Silvio's family that visiting hours were over, but Silvio's family could come back early tomorrow morning,' the second occurrence of 'Silvio's family' can be effectively substituted with the word 'them' to avoid repetition and improve clarity. Using 'them' in this context helps to make the sentence more concise and less redundant, enhancing the overall flow and readability. Choice B ('us') is incorrect as it would imply that Silvio's family could come back early tomorrow morning to the speaker and others, which is not the intended meaning. Choice C ('they') is incorrect as it would shift the subject from 'Silvio's family' to a third-person perspective, altering the original meaning. Choice D ('those') is incorrect as it does not appropriately refer back to 'Silvio's family' in a clear and concise manner.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The word 'whom' should be used instead of 'who' in the sentence to make it grammatically correct. 'Who' is used as the subject of a sentence, while 'whom' is used as the object. Therefore, the correct form of the sentence should be: 'For whom was that email intended?' Choices A, C, and D are used correctly in the sentence and do not need any changes.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The word 'because' indicates the reason or cause for something. In this context, it logically connects the meteorologist's forecast of rain with Sheila bringing her umbrella to work. The conjunction 'because' explains the relationship between the rain forecast and Sheila's action of bringing an umbrella, making it the most suitable word for the sentence. Choices B, C, and D do not fit the context as they do not provide a logical reason for Sheila's action.
