2. Which of these things might be true of someone who is "incorrigible"?

Explanation

Someone who is "incorrigible" is unlikely to take suggestions. This means that they are resistant to advice or correction and are unlikely to change their behavior or beliefs based on the suggestions of others. The other options, such as liking canoes, changing their mind easily, or moving quickly, do not necessarily relate to the definition of "incorrigible".

Submit
3. What word is the best choice for a SYNONYM (word with the same meaning) of the following word: destroy

Explanation

The word "annihilate" is the best choice for a synonym of "destroy" because it means to completely destroy or obliterate something. It implies a total and irreversible destruction, similar to the meaning of "destroy". The other options, "latent", "facilitate", and "exodus", do not have the same meaning as "destroy".

Submit

Submit
5. Fill in the blank: Due to the sudden __________, the chairs were left in a tumble at the end of the concert.

Explanation

The word "exodus" means a mass departure or exit of people. In this context, the sudden exodus refers to a large number of people leaving the concert abruptly. This caused the chairs to be left in disarray or a tumble at the end of the event.

Submit
6. Fill in the blank with the best choice: As she grew older, Martha began to believe she had a _________ talent for archery, despite having always stayed away from weapons in her youth.

Explanation

As Martha grew older, she started to believe that she had a latent talent for archery. This means that she believed she had an undeveloped or hidden talent for archery, even though she had never been involved with weapons in her youth.

Submit
7. Choose the answer that best completes the analogy: ______ : aide :: enemy : foe

Explanation

The analogy in this question is between two pairs of words: "______ : aide" and "enemy : foe". The relationship between "enemy" and "foe" is that they are synonyms, meaning they have similar meanings. Therefore, to complete the analogy, we need to find a word that is synonymous with "aide". The word "accomplice" fits this criterion as it means a person who helps or assists someone in a wrongful act, just like an aide does.

Submit
8. Fill in the blank with the correct word: The bandit staged a ___________ raid on the military's stores.

Explanation

The word "brazen" is the correct answer because it means bold, shameless, or audacious. In the given sentence, it suggests that the bandit carried out a daring and audacious raid on the military's stores, showing no fear or concern for the consequences.

Submit
9. Choose the vocabulary word that best completes the analogy: _____ : peaceful :: hurricane : calm

Explanation

The word "militant" best completes the analogy because it is the opposite of "peaceful" just like "hurricane" is the opposite of "calm". A militant person is aggressive, combative, and involved in warfare or fighting, which is the opposite of being peaceful. Similarly, a hurricane is a violent and destructive storm, which is the opposite of being calm. Therefore, "militant" is the correct answer.

Submit
10. Choose the word that is the best choice for an ANTONYM (word with the opposite meaning) of: arbitrary

Explanation

The word "arbitrary" means based on personal whim or preference, lacking a clear reason or pattern. The antonym of arbitrary is "predictable," which means able to be foreseen or expected.
