Test on Mastering English: Grammar and Vocabulary

Question 1: The study materials suggest that a parent who is too rebellious is a common example of parent behavior.

A. Ano

B. Ne

Explanation: The study materials list examples of parent behavior as 'A parent who is too strict', 'A parent who is too lenient', and 'A parent who is overprotective'. 'Rebellious' is listed as a behavior for a teenager, not a parent.

Question 2: Which of the following behaviors are explicitly mentioned as examples related to parent-teen dynamics within the provided study materials?

A. A parent who is too strict

B. A teenager who is rebellious

C. A parent who is overprotective

D. A teenager who is dishonest

Explanation: The study materials in section E, 'PROVIDE EXAMPLES', explicitly list 'A parent who is too strict', 'A teenager who is rebellious', and 'A parent who is overprotective' as behaviors to describe. The material mentions 'Becoming a trustworthy' which appears to be a typo and doesn't explicitly list 'A teenager who is dishonest' as an example of bad behavior in the same clear manner as the other options are presented.

Question 3: Will families and society be responsible for paying for the long-term care of people who can no longer live independently?

A. Ano

B. Ne

Explanation: The study materials include a critical thinking question asking, 'Who will pay for long-term care of people who can no longer live independently?' and lists 'Families and society' as a correct answer option. The text also indicates that 'more institutions will need to be built for their care, more medications provided for their treatment, and more caregivers too will be able to feel daily life,' implying a societal burden.

Question 4: According to the study materials, why will institutional care for the elderly represent an immense social change?

A. Because it will primarily involve informal home care from younger relatives.

B. Because more institutions will need to be built for the constant care of dementia patients.

C. Because it will reduce the overall number of elderly people in the population.

D. Because fewer medications will be provided for their treatment.

Explanation: The study materials state, 'Because most dementia patients eventually need constant care and help with the most basic activities of daily living, more institutions will need to be built for their care...' and then concludes, 'Institutional care for the elderly will represent an immense social change.' This directly links the need for more institutions for constant care to the immense social change.

Question 5: The passive sentence "Injured birds must be protected" would be correctly changed to active voice as "Veterinarians must protect injured birds."

A. Ano

B. Ne

Explanation: The study materials do not provide a specific active voice conversion for "Injured birds must be protected" using "Veterinarians." However, based on the other examples converting passive to active, the subject of the active sentence would typically be a general agent like "People" or the implied agent. For instance, "Homeless pets can be adopted by families" correctly becomes "Families can adopt homeless cats" in Exercise A, implying the agent. There is no information to suggest veterinarians are the exclusive or primary agents for protecting injured birds according to the provided text.
