    Read the following scenarios carefully and answer the corresponding questions.Scenario #1Dr. Jennifer Hathaway, a primary care physician in a suburb of Chicago starts her day with 25 files piled on her desk, representing the 25 patients that she will see in the next eight hours. Her first patient is Eleanor, a healthy 45-year-old woman, who works as a software engineer. Eleanor is waiting for the doctor in the examining room after Dr. Smith’s medical assistant has taken her vitals and weight, draws blood and does an EKG, which she attaches to Eleanor’s chart. Eleanor has also filled in an update form that has been placed at the front of her chart.Dr. Hathaway enters the examining room, carrying Eleanor’s file. She gives it a quick glance noting Eleanor’s weight, blood pressure, and a note about headaches. She greets Eleanor, shakes her hand and warmly welcomes her back for her annual visit, observing stress in Eleanor’s face and a slight tremor in the handshake. Eleanor has been a patient for the past 10 years, and they banter back and forth about her general health and her family. While examining Eleanor, Dr. Hathaway asks about any new issues or changes, as she has not had time to read the update form that Eleanor filled out. When she is finished Dr. Hathaway suggests that Eleanor get dressed, and meet her in her office.While she is waiting for Eleanor, Dr. Hathaway quickly reads her update form and skims through her record, seeking information from the last visit. As they talk Dr. Hathaway takes copious notes in longhand. She tells Eleanor that her blood pressure is quite high compared to a year ago and suggests that could be the cause of her headaches. She recommends that Eleanor start a hypertension medication and have a stress test. She writes out prescriptions and slips for lab work, which she hands to Eleanor, reassuring her that there is nothing to worry about.After the visit, Dr. Hathaway collects and reviews all of Eleanor’s labs and test results and within a couple of weeks she sends Eleanor a note indicating that her stress test and other blood work is normal, but her cholesterol is high. She encloses a prescription for a cholesterol medication and tells Eleanor to call if she has questions.Unfortunately, the cholesterol medication makes Eleanor dizzy so she calls the office the next day and leaves a message. Dr. Hathaway calls her back, but Eleanor is not there. It takes three days and two more rounds of telephone calls before the doctor and Eleanor connect. Dr. Hathaway tells Eleanor to immediately stop what she is taking and indicates that she will call a new drug into the pharmacy. There is no further communication between Dr. Hathaway and Eleanor until her next visit six months later.1.

    Scenario #2Dr. James Thatcher, who practices general medicine in a community just outside Atlanta, GA, is proud of the fact that, after much time, expense, and energy, his office has installed a new computer system with electronic records for all of his patients, a medications database, and e-prescribing capability. Dr. Thatcher and his staff spent a weekend in training to help them use and understand the new computer system.When his patient Dan, a retired 80-year-old contractor with asthma and high blood pressure, comes in for his six-month visit, he gives his medical card to an office attendant, who looks up his patient record on the computer and confirms his identity and birth date. Dan is still asked to fill out a paper update form that he struggles with as he tries to remember all of the dosages for his medications and recall his family medical history.As Dan enters the exam room, Dr. Thatcher is at the computer reviewing his electronic medical record (EMR). They talk for a few minutes and after examining Dan, the doctor notes the start of a bronchial infection. While Dan waits, Dr. Thatcher searches his new medication database to find the right antibiotic to treat Dan’s bronchitis. The computer returns with a list of three medications that would be appropriate, and flags one of the medications that Dan’s health plan will not accept. The doctor makes his choice and electronically transmits the prescription to Dan’s local pharmacy where the computer prints a concise set of instructions including a warning on potential side effects and directions about how Dan should take the drug.Once again Dr. Thatcher turns his attention to Dan and together they review Dan’s electronic medical record on the computer and discuss some of the most recent entries. Dr. Thatcher prints a list of web links where Dan can find information about the new prescription and other medical issues. Dan’s prescription is waiting when he arrives at the pharmacy on his way home.6. What does the office attendant do to check in Dan? 7. What type of records system does Dr. James Thatcher implement in his practice? 8. What does Dan struggle with on check-in? How could he be more prepared next time? 9.

    Correct Answer
    B. B. were his arrogant assumption that his constituents were incapable of understanding economic conditions
    Explanation
    The correct answer is B. were his arrogant assumption that his constituents were incapable of understanding economic conditions. This answer correctly identifies the subject-verb agreement in the sentence. The subject "his arrogant assumption" is singular, so it should be followed by the singular verb "was." Additionally, the adjective "arrogant" should be used in its singular form to agree with the singular noun "assumption."

    Correct Answer
    E. E. ; they seek sand, sun and palm trees, rather than centers of entertainment.
    Explanation
    The given correct answer is E. "; they seek sand, sun and palm trees, rather than centers of entertainment." This answer is correct because it maintains the parallel structure of the original sentence and correctly uses the semicolon to separate the two independent clauses. Additionally, it accurately conveys the meaning that holidaymakers are choosing to fly to remote islands in search of specific elements such as sand, sun, and palm trees, rather than seeking centers of entertainment.

    • E.

      E. these forms should be submitted

    Correct Answer
    B. B. that these forms be submitted
    Explanation
    The correct answer is B. that these forms be submitted. This is because the sentence is in the subjunctive mood, indicating a requirement or demand. In the subjunctive mood, the verb "should" is not necessary. Instead, the verb "be" is used after the word "that." Therefore, the correct form is "that these forms be submitted."

    • E.

      E. relief both for the victor and the vanquished side.

    Correct Answer
    B. B. as much relief among the victors as among the vanquished.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is B because it correctly compares the amount of relief experienced by the victors and the vanquished. The phrase "as much relief among the victors as among the vanquished" indicates that both sides felt the same level of relief when they saw the white flag being raised. The other options either use incorrect prepositions or do not properly compare the level of relief between the two sides.

    Explanation
    The best way to encourage innovative thinking is not to promise financial rewards for ideas, but to ensure that the person making the suggestion receives recognition for his contribution. This answer choice accurately reflects the original statement and maintains the same meaning. It emphasizes that recognition, rather than financial rewards, is the key factor in encouraging innovative thinking.

    Correct Answer
    A. A. her with whom you share your secrets, not me
    Explanation
    The correct answer is A. "her with whom you share your secrets, not me." This is the correct answer because the pronoun "whom" is used to refer to the object of the verb "share." Since "her" is the object of the verb, it is the correct pronoun to use. Additionally, "me" is the correct pronoun to use after the preposition "not."

    Explanation
    The difference between 989,987 and 232,432 is calculated by subtracting the smaller number from the larger number. In this case, when we subtract 232,432 from 989,987, we get 757,555.

    35. Find the difference: 7,342,343 - 56,433 =

    Correct Answer
    7, 285, 910
    Explanation
    The correct answer is obtained by subtracting 56,433 from 7,342,343. When subtracting the numbers, we start from the rightmost digit and work our way to the left. Subtracting 3 from 3 gives 0, subtracting 3 from 4 gives 1, subtracting 4 from 2 gives 8, subtracting 5 from 3 gives 8, subtracting 6 from 4 gives 8, and subtracting 5 from 7 gives 2. Therefore, the difference between 7,342,343 and 56,433 is 7,285,910.
