    We plan to hire someone who write well, design brochures, and who can assist with opening and closing the office.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement is false because the sentence is grammatically incorrect. It should say "who can write well" instead of "who write well." Additionally, the sentence lacks parallel structure, as it lists two specific skills (writing and designing brochures) and then switches to a general task (assisting with opening and closing the office).

  • 12. 

    All the ladies and males in attendance enjoyed the presentation by Josephine.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The statement says that "All the ladies and males in attendance enjoyed the presentation by Josephine." This implies that every single person, both ladies and males, enjoyed the presentation. However, it is highly unlikely that every single person in a group would have the same opinion or experience. Therefore, it is more reasonable to assume that not everyone enjoyed the presentation, making the statement false.

    Peter Gotlieb, who was born in Germany 25 years ago, will be our new account representative.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The given statement is false because the information provided does not indicate that Peter Gotlieb will be the new account representative. The statement only provides information about Peter's birthplace and age, but it does not mention anything about his role or position in the company. Therefore, we cannot conclude that he will be the new account representative based on the given information.

    Rate this question:

  • 14. 

    Running late, we forgot that we had a noon luncheon with Peter at noon.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true because it states that the person running late forgot about a noon luncheon with Peter at noon. The repetition of the word "noon" emphasizes the fact that the person forgot about the specific time of the luncheon, which was also at noon. Therefore, the statement is true as it highlights the forgetfulness of the person and the coincidence of the luncheon and the time.

    Rate this question:
