Only his truest and most ______ fans remained faithful followers following the news of his steroid use.

  1. reticent
  2. vocal
  3. demonstrative
  4. boisterous
  5. ardent

Answer(s): E

Explanation:

Only Choice E represents something other than volume or noise. "Ardent, " or characterized by warmth of feeling is the stand-alone qualifier.



It was her need to ______ that caused her to become an ______; the belief that the government was corrupt and the constant censorship being the two principal causes for move.

  1. express. . .outcast
  2. release. . .icon
  3. expose. . .outsider
  4. expatiate. . .expatriate
  5. control. . .anarchist

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

We're looking for a cause-and-effect relationship here, and that relationship has to do with the beliefs about the corrupt government and the fact that she is constantly censored. Someone who is censored has a need to present, and toward that end, Choices A, B, C, and D all qualify. Since we also know that her action involved moving, we can reduce the choices based on the second blank to Choices C and D.
Further looking at the result of her actions and the subtleties of the sentence, we find that the censorship is recurring. So, in fine-tuning the first blank, we look for the word that best indicates a repetitive action.
That choice is D, "expatiate, " which means to speak or write at length indicating often, making Choice D the best selection.



Not desirous of meeting his Maker in the middle of a poker game, Doc Holiday ______ placed an ace inside his vest as Bat Masterson shuffled the remaining cards.

  1. suspiciously
  2. coyly
  3. overtly
  4. furtively
  5. brazenly

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

Clearly, we're looking for a word that suggests not drawing attention to oneself or causing a distraction away from the shuffling. Choice B, "coyly, " might look like a possibility, but there is nothing shy or pretending shyness about hiding an ace in your vest opposite Bat Masterson. Choice D, "furtively, " which means slyly or secretly done is the best choice.



Given ______ politicians can generally raise campaign financing easier than challengers, Lt. Governor James should have the advantage.

  1. honest
  2. incumbent
  3. entrepreneurial
  4. opulent
  5. gregarious

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Choice E, "gregarious, " is an excellent distractor as it means social or companionable; a good trait for a politician to be sure, especially if he is raising money. But the gist of the sentence is not about qualifying a politician except in light of him or her being in office as opposed to a challenger. Choice B, "incumbent, " best qualifies for this distinction.



Following the completion of an unusually arduous day at the office, Sue happily enjoyed the ______ experience of relaxing in the hot tub while watching television learning that she just won the state lottery.

  1. erratic
  2. superfluous
  3. halcyon
  4. untoward
  5. geriatric

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

We're looking for a word that describes a most pleasant experience that causes much joy and is an offset to a difficult day. Choice C, "halcyon, " meaning prosperous or most pleasant certainly fits the bill on both counts-- pleasant hot tub and prosperous winning of the lottery.

question 14 - run terraform import: this is the recommended best practice for bringing manually created or destroyed resources under terraform management. you use terraform import to associate an existing resource with a terraform resource configuration. this ensures that terraform is aware of the resource, and you can subsequently manage it with terraform.

i just took my oracle exam and let me tell you, this exam dumps was a lifesaver! without them, iam not sure i would have passed. the questions were tricky and the answers were obscure, but the exam dumps had everything i needed. i would recommend to anyone looking to pass their oracle exams with flying colors (and a little bit of cheating) lol.
