1.
A.
C.
B.
DAns:
C the answer is C
because the bound morphemes in, dis,un, and il connote negative meaning- for
example when we say inadequate, we mean that it is not adequate
2.
A.
C.
B.
D.
Ans: A- The answer is a, because all of the other given options connote Wrapping up a
particular text, while doing an Assumption means that we are trying to hypothesize.
3.
A.
C
B.
D. Ans:
D- The
answer is D because all the other options given are measures of temperature while meter is
a measure of length or distance.
4.
A.
C.
B.
D.
Ans: B the answer is letter B because the article the would connote that we are
pertaining to all poor people, and because of that the pronoun to be used must also plural in
form.
5.
A.
C
B.
D. Ans:
D the
given statement below includes an idiom and so one must not take it literally. The idiom used
in the sentence means to actively participate in a group endeavor, and so the answer is D.
6.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
B this
particular item concerns tag questions. The rule in using tag question is that when the first
statement is negative, the next statement must be positive and vice-versa. Having stated this,
the answer is B.
7.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
A Using our context clues abilities and the
archetypes of colors, we can easily state that the answer is letter A. the color White
symbolizes purity, and if we are to connect it with the word lie we can by all means say that
White Lies are lies without any intention to hurt other people.
8.

A.
C.
B.
DAns:
B at first one might think that the answer
is C to write, but upon examining deeply, we would have to consider B writing as another
possible answer. to write and writing are nominal (infinitive and gerund). Nominals are
verbs that function as nouns. Infinitives often times appear after an object of the sentence. It
would be awkward to say Did your mentor ask you writing a new one?, a better version of
this sentence would be Did your mentor ask you to write a new one?. In the given sentence,
the object was not given, so the best answer is a gerund, letter B.

9.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
D- the
answer is letter D cope although most would answer A cope up. D is the best answer since
that cope with means to adapt, while cope up with means to try to follow ones lead.

B.
answer is B where because we are pertaining to a place.

D. Ans:

B The

11.
A.
C.
B.

by a clause for example The towels you gave me are so wet that I cannot dry the tables
anymore.
12.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
B The
obvious answer is letter B, because among the options given it is the only word that ends with
ne.

13.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
C- The
apparent answer is C stage fright because all of the options given would not constitute to
the given symptoms in the question. There are also some contexts clues present such as
speaker, stage and spiel.
14.

B.
D. Ans:
B The answer is B
simile the statement is comparing the snake to the night using the word like.
Personification is when we give humanity attributes to inanimate objects. Metaphor is direct
comparison-meaning comparing without the use of like
or as. Apostrophe is addressing someone who is absent or deceased, inanimate or abstract
concepts.

B.
C.
D. Ans:

and translated into English by Edward Fitzgerald. It adheres to the carpe diem movement that
states that we should eat now drink and be merry for tomorrow youll die (Seize the day).
Having said this answer is letter C.
16.
A.
B.
C.
D. Ans:

which means prosperity and still waters which means peace, we can clearly state that the
answer is D.
17.
A.
B.
C.
D. Ans:
D The answer is D because the quotation
given states that is not enough for us to be eager in learning, but we must also treat it with
excitement and with much enthusiasm.

Situation

respectively then answer the questions below.

18.
A.
B.
C.
D. Ans:
B The answer is B. in the story, the mother of the main
character was sick for a very long time and so Ms. Mijares was obliged to take care of her
mother
19.
A.
B.
C.
D.

the small key that her husband never failed to treasure. So when Pedro left the key
accidentally, Soledad took the opportunity and she opened the chest and found the old things
of the first wife. Because of her jealous, she burnt all the things inside the chest.
20.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
The answer is A.
Telescoping is when the author would narrate an event and then would fats forward to the
next. Foreshadowing is giving clues about what is going to happen at the end of the story.
Flashback is narrating past events, and Stream of consciousness is a technique that has no
specific order.
Situation

Recall The Bolo and Without Seeing the Dawn by L. Paras Sulit and Stevan
Javanella respectively then answer the questions posted below.

21.
A.
B.
C.
D.
Ans: A The answer is A. in the short story The Bolo the main character treasures so much
the bolo that was given to her husband because it is symbol of the husbands true love
towards the main character.
22.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
A The
answer is A. Stevean Javanella is one of the prolific writers---novelists, for that matter in the
post war period.
23.
A.
B.
C.
D. Ans:
A option B is not the answer because it is loaded
question and at the same time a tag question---meaning, there is already an underlying and
expected answer option C is also not the answer because the question is not about
clarification but concern. In addition option c is not the answer because the words used did
not really show concern.
24.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
A Clearly, option
A is the answer since that the rest of the options started with Yes which means contradicts
the statement I dont agree with the report...
25.

A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
B The statement I am used to the
same tales is a common idio-matic. But if ever this is the first time you heard this statement, you
may use the phrase used to as a context clue.
26.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
B Options C and D seems off tangent to
the question, so we will just limit our choice to options A and b which are both common
utterances in terms of revenge. Option B is not the answer because An eye for an eye
connotes revenge, but in item number 26, it was said that the victim refused revenge. That is
why option A is the best answer.
27.
A.
B.
C.
D. Ans:
D Among the options given , A and C ate most unlikely,
so we will just limit it to options A and D. option B talks about the never ending cycle of
emerging leaders, while option D mentioned things like
history, matched, and leadersthus, making D the correct answer.

28.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
B This question
could also be under the Grammar section because this concerns consistency on tense. The
answer is N caught-up because clearly, the sentences in the past tense and not in the past
progressive (was Catching)because the action is not a continuing action in the past, nor in
the present tense( catch-up---because the other verbs in the statement are in the past tense,
and definitely not in the present perfect tense (has caught)because the action is no longer
happening at present and at the same time it ended not in the very recent past.
29.

A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
D in this particular question, we can immediately illuminate options A and C. We just
have to decide if which among B and D the correct answer B flourished could also be the
answer, but if we would think carefully, we should consider the clause when the scientific
discoveries started. We just have to remember that scientific discoveries would have to be
one of the reasons for the rebirth and without those discoveries; the renaissance would not
take place. Having said this, the word flourished is no longer appropriate.
30.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
A Constructivist
is the answer because this theory is about constructing new knowledge based on the prior
knowledge or schema.

31.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
A- Firstrate has always been an utterance expressing excellence. But if ever this is something new to
you and you dont have any idea about this, then the best thing to do is try the elimination
process. Take note that options B, C and D are in some ways related with each other, leaving
option a excellent isolated. Therefore, it is safe to say that A is the best answer.
32.

A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
B The answer is B because the word Pulchritude means physical beauty and grace.
But if ever you have no idea about the dictionary definition of this word, you can use your
context clues abilities. The word Venus is the most helpful clue. As we all know Venus is the
Roman goddess of beautythis fact will help us in determining the right answer.
33.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
B The
answer is B because herald means to usher in or to proclaim. But if ever you have no idea
about the dictionary definition of this word, just think about one famous Christmas song that
goes like hark the HERALD angel sing. At times our prior knowledge about words is useful
in trying to derive meaning from a given word.
34
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
B- the answer is B because the word
automate means to install or to convert to automation equipment. Thus, to operate
through machines is indeed the best answer.
35.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
D the answer is D
because reticent means reserved, taciturn (A) means habitually silent, reserved (B)
means self-restrained. Options A, B and C are almost synonymous, while D verbose means
wordy. It is also unlikely for a president to be reserved, since that being the head of an
organization/state requires a lot of verbal skills.
36.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
B- Hiatus
means gap, and clearly option B lapse is the nearest definition. But if you have no idea
about the dictionary meaning of hiatus, you may use your context clues abilities. By just
reading the statement you would have an idea that there is a gap of four years before the
persona was able to return to her country.
37.
A.
C.
b.
D. Ans:
B by using the elimination
method, we can easily know the best answer .Option A uncomplicated and option D simple
are in some ways synonymous- and so it is but proper to eliminate them from our choices.
Option C worldly should also be eliminated because a sophisticated thing doesnt mean that
it is worldly.
38.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
B Eureka has always
been an expression of an abrupt realization or discovery. But if ever you have no idea about
this expression, you may use the word Archimedes as your clue.
39.
A.
c.
B.
D. Ans:
C- The
word Excruciating has always been an adjective to describe extreme pain. Having said this,
option A (mild), B(slight), and D(endurable) are not appropriate to be used in the given
statement about fractured bones.
40.
A.
C.
C.
D. Ans:
C- At first reading,
we can already eliminate options A and D. we just have to decide whether compliant or
complement is the suitable answer. Compliment means an expression of admiration and
praise, while complement means a things\ that would complete the whole. Clearly the
answer is indeed option C-complement
41.

A.
c.
B.
D. Ans:
A The word Erratic means not
conforming to standards. It could also mean irregular thus making option A Inconsistent the
best answer

42.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
B- this is a
give-away question, but you must read it carefully. The answer is B- ductile because if a
material is ductile, it can be hammered into thin layers without being broken into pieces.
43.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
D Ersatz
means substitute. Given thus definition, we can say that the closest word to substitute is
option D-artificial. But if ever you dont have any idea about the dictionary definition, you
can easily answer this question by choosing the word that doesnt go along with the other
options. In thus particular item all of the options are quite synonymous except option D.
44.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
C
Without even knowing what the word hubhub means, since that most of the dictionaries
dont have this word on their list, we can use the classification method in determining the best
answer. Among the choices, option C- commotion is the only one not synonymous to the
other options given, making it the correct and best answer.
45.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
D
This question is again a give-away. Even without using the dictionary, we can easily answer
this particular item by just looking at the set of options. Option D honorable is the answer
because among the choices given, it is the only one that is positive.
46.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
D The
answer is D hesitate because the statement in this item is clearly stating that we should not
think twice for time is running out.
47.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
D The
word frivolous means void of significance and reason. It could also mean trivial or
unimportant. That is why option D worthless is the best answer.
48.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
D the answer is
courteously because among the choices given, this is the only attribute is expected from a
government employee.
49.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
B If we are
to use the process of elimination, we can easily remove options C and D. options a (lanky) and
B (Haggard) are the two possible answers. But if we are to think about it, lanky means
shrunken-making it inappropriate, and making option B the best answer.
50.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
B Gullible is the best
answer because normally, fairy tales and mystery novels have plots that are too fancy to
believe in making readers believe in the impossible and at times in the illogical.

51.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
C
According to Webster, Gloat means to look with cruel or triumphant satisfaction. Unlike the
other item where the option has distinction definitions, the options in this item would seem
like synonymous with each other. Scoff means to mock or to ridicule, Deride means to
treat with scornful mirth or to ridicule; Brag means to vaunt ones self; and belittle means
to disparage. But the answer is C Brag because Scoff and Deride are synonymous, while belittle
is just like depreciating something.
52.
Ans:

C.

D.

D the answer is D because the mentioned quotation clearly talks about procrastination

53.
A.
C.
C.
D. Ans:
D The answer is Benevolent dictator
because benevolence means acts of kindness and charity- thus making this the most
appropriate answer.

54.
A.
`
C.
B.
D. Ans:
D Lucid means
clear- making option C- ;thinking clearly the most appropriate answer.
55.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
Using the process of elimination, we can
immediately remove options B and C. The answer is D last defense because of the clause
provided in the statement in this particular item.
56.

A.
C.
B.
D.
Ans: C The answer is wither because most plants cant bloom, cant flower, and cant bear
fruits during winter.
57.
A.
B.
C.
D. Ans:
C the answer is C everyone will be questioning the
recipe because in terms of tense, this would appropriately complete the sentence. Option C is
in the future progressive tense- thus it connotes future action that is more recent and certain
compared to options A and B which are both in the simple future tense wherein we are not
certain if the action is certain or not. Remember that the differences between the simple
future tense and future progressive tense are in terms recent and certainly- the latter being
more recent and certain than the former.
58.

A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
A in the event is the obvious answer since that this
phrase is commonly used compared to the other options given. In addition, all the other
options, when supplied to the sentence make no sense.
59.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
C The answer is
Pronoun because all other given options are context words. Content words are those that
carry meaning nouns, verbs, adverbs, and adjectives are samples of this. On the other hand
functions words are those that dont have any meaning if isolated with the content words
preposition, conjunctions and pronouns are samples of this in addition, function words are just
there to give support to content words, and so, a sentence filled with function words would be
normally dull.
60.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
used to is the answer because this
phrase connotes an actions that was done consistently in the past while the other options that
used modals such as could and may connotes ability and possibility
61.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
B- This item concerns tense.
The answer has seated is in the present tense and it truly fits the thought of the sentence.
Remember that the present perfect tense connotes actions that started in the past and would
have two possible outcomes (1) still happening, (2) recently ended. In the sentence She ____
at the computer for 6 long hours, we are certain if the subject is still using the computer. You
might confuse this to be under the past perfect tense because of the sentence followed .
Finally, she took a break, remember that if the two independent clauses are not separated by
a period like. She___ at the computer for 6 long hours before she finally took a break then
we must use the past perfect tense. But in this item there are three separate sentences.
62.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
D In this item there are only
two separate sentences unlike item 52. In the sentence she ______ along with her superior
for a long time before she finally decided to look for a new position thyer are two past actions
(1) the missing action, and (2) decide D. The rule states that if there are two connected past
actions in a sentence (the 1st action was still in progress when the 2nd action happened) we
must already use the past perfect progressive tense.
63.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
C In this sentence ChunLi_____English for three years, but she will need more training to be more proficient.. We will
have to choose between present perfect tense or present perfect progressive tense. The
difference between the two is that in the former, although the action might still be happening
at present time, we are certain that it will end soon, while in the latter we are sure that the

action will still continue in the future. That is the reason why has been studying is the
answer.
64.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
C the answer is has been
working because the subject is singular that is why we cant use have. We must not also use
had because it is only used in sentences in the past perfect or past perfect progressive tenses.

65.

A.
B.
merely enumerating things

C.
D. Ans:

66.
A.
B.
C.
D. Ans:

D This item concerns parallelism, and option D is the

C And is the answer because we are just

67.

A.
C.
B
D. Ans:
B- We Filipinos are fond of using fill-out, but the standard rule is fill-in. That is why
option b is the most appropriate answer.
68.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
B
Remember that I is used as the subject or the doer of the action, while me is used as the
receiver of the action. In the sentence given in this item the pronoun is the receiver of the
action and that is why me is the answer.
69.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
B
Always remember that verbs of senses mat take two forms, (1) as a linking verb, or as an (2)
action verb. If it functions as a linking verb, then it must be followed by an adjective. On the
other hand, if it functions as an action verb, then it must be followed by an adverb. In this
sentence, since that candy is not capable of moving, we can say that smells functions as a
linking verb, so it must be followed by the adjective sweet.
70.

A.
B.
the most appropriate answer.

C.
D. Ans:

B This item concerns parallelism, and option B is

B.
D. Ans:
D Signed is the answer because it only has
one syllable and that affected its ending /ed/ sound.
73.
A.

Ans: B Warm is the answer because based on the question, we are to emphasize the kind
of day.

74.
Ans:
75.

A.
C.
B.
D.
D Played is the answer because all the other words are with /t/ end sounds.

A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
D Buys is the answer because all other
given words end with /s/ sounds buys ends with /z/ sound because the sound before the
letter s is voiced.

76.
A.
C.
B.
D. Ans:
B
These is the answer because all the other choices start with voiceless /th/. To know if the
/th/ sound is voice or voiceless, just cover your ears or put your fingers on your throat and feel
if there are vibrations. If there are, then it is voiced, if none, then it is voiceless.

none, then it is voiceless.

than one syllable-that changed the ending /ed/ sound to /id/.

D. Ans:
B Push is the answer because all the options have either /zh/ or /s/ sounds.

sounds.

83.

A.
B.
C.
D. Ans:

and D because they are too literal. A is a better answer than B because the passage is not
about death.

like herald and day. These clues will lead us to choosing dawn
86.
A.
C.
B.

eliminate option A for the opposite of the statement. D is the better answer than B and C
because it has a more positive outlook/interpretation of the lines.

87.

better because of the clues found in the statement like heard no more.

Ans: D Global warming is the increase of Earths average surface
due to the effect of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide emissions
from fossil fuels or from deforestation which trap heat that would
otherwise escape from the Earth. The most significant greenhouse gas is
actually water vapor not something produced directly by humankind in
significant amounts. However, even slight increase in atmospheric levels of
carbon dioxide can cause a substantial increase in global temperature.

Ans: A Hypothesis regarding, the origin of extra terrestrial if it exist
are as follows: one proposes that it may have emerged independently from
different places in the universe. An alternative is panspermia or exogenesis
which hold that life emerges from one location that spreads between
habitable planets. Specialized forms of extra terrestrial life range from life
with the simplicity of bacteria to sapient beings which are more advanced
than humans. To date no credible evidence of extra terrestrial life has been
discovered which has been generally accepted by the mainstream scientific
community.

step of the scientific method, questions and observations are weighed and
considered. Researchers then make an educated guess to explain their

questions and observations. Formulating a valid hypothesis takes practice,

but is crucial to the success of any experiment.
