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.

the correct answer to q8 is b. explanation since the mule app has a dependency, it is necessary to include project modules and dependencies to make sure the app will run successfully on the runtime on any other machine. source code of the component that the mule app is dependent of does not need to be included in the exported jar file, because the source code is not being used while executing an app. compiled code is being used instead.
