Try each one, then open the answer. These ten stay the same; the test draws new ones every time.
Answer: C. A chapter is a section of a novel, as a verse is a section of a poem (part to whole). 'Sentence : word' and 'library : book' run from whole to part, the wrong way round.
Answer: B. After 'It would be' an adjective completes the sentence: foolish. 'Foolishly' is an adverb and 'foolishness' a noun; neither fits 'It would be ___ to ignore'.
Answer: B. Exhausted is an extreme degree of tired, as ravenous is an extreme degree of hungry. 'Sad : unhappy' are synonyms of equal strength, and 'sleepy : awake' are opposites.
Answer: B. The negative prefix in- changes to il- before a word beginning with l: illegal, illogical, illiterate. The other forms do not exist in English.
Answer: D. Scalding is a much stronger degree of warm, as drenched is a much stronger degree of damp. 'Bright : dim' is a pair of opposites and 'quick : fast' a pair of synonyms.
Answer: A. An archipelago is a group of islands, as a chain is a series of links (whole to part). 'Page : book' and 'sand : beach' run from part to whole, the wrong way round.
Answer: A. The blank describes the past participle 'located' (how it is located), so an adverb is needed: conveniently. 'Convenient' would need to describe a noun, as in 'a convenient location'.
Answer: C. A saw is the tool a carpenter works with, as a scalpel is the tool of a surgeon (worker to tool). A novel is what an author produces, not a tool.
Answer: C. A needle is the tailor's tool, as a hammer is the blacksmith's (worker to tool). A field is where a farmer works, and bread is what a baker makes.
Answer: B. Eloquent describes someone who speaks fluently and persuasively: well-spoken. 'Elegant' is only a look-alike.
