LEGIBLE

  1. Law-like
  2. Political
  3. Legal
  4. Regulated
  5. Readable

Answer(s): E

Explanation:

The word “legible” comes from the Latin “legere” meaning to read. The English word means clear and readable. It is related to the word “lector,” which means reader. Often people will talk about “legible handwriting,” but the word can be used to describe print words that are likewise readable.



“Immersed” most closely means __________.

  1. drowned
  2. available
  3. absorbed
  4. urgent
  5. critical

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The “-mersed” portion of this word is related to similar forms found in English words like “submerge” and “emerge.” It is derived from the Latin for to dip. The prefix “im-” is a version of “in.” Although “immersion” can describe the process of dunking someone into water, it likewise can mean that someone is completely absorbed in some activity. Consider a sentence like: “He was immersed in programming, little aware of anything in the world other than himself and his computer.” Likewise, we sometimes speak of people studying languages “by immersion,” that is, by living in the context of the language and using only the language being learned instead of their native languages for communication.



“Amble” most closely means __________.

  1. run
  2. transport
  3. move
  4. saunter
  5. capable

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The word “amble” comes from the Latin for “to walk,” which is found in English words like “ambulatory” and “ambulate.” It means “to walk in a relaxed manner.” Among the options, “saunter” best describes such walking. One might say, “She ambled about the county paths, not wishing to hurry past any of the beauties of the autumn scenery.”



Select the answer choice that is closest in meaning to the word in capital letters.
DILIGENT

  1. meticulous
  2. overachieving
  3. energetic
  4. reliable
  5. persnickety

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Someone who is "diligent" pays attention to the details of something. For instance, a diligent student is one who studies much and does his or her work in a thorough manner. The word comes from the Latin for to love or take delight in, which is found in the word “predilection,” meaning a preference for something. If someone is "diligent," that person probably has a love for the activity on which he or she is focusing. A "meticulous" person is very careful regarding details, so this is the best option for this word.
