“The new phone is lighter, has a bigger screen and lasts longer on a single charge than the old model. It also costs more.” Which is a disadvantage of the new phone?
Researchers found that people who own dogs live longer, on average, than people who do not. The author concludes that buying a dog will make a person live longer. What is the main weakness in the author’s reasoning?
Which sentence punctuates “however” correctly in the middle of a clause?
Which phrase shows something that belongs to the whole Jones family?
Choose the meaning of the word in bold: “The artery was occluded by a clot.”
Which word is closest in meaning to candid?
答え: A · It costs more.
Being lighter, bigger-screened and longer-lasting are advantages. A higher price is the disadvantage the passage mentions.
答え: C · A link between two things does not prove that one causes the other.
Healthier, more active people may be more likely to own dogs. A correlation alone does not show that buying a dog causes a longer life.
答え: B · The test, however, was easier than expected.
When “however” interrupts a single clause, it is set off with a pair of commas. A semicolon is used only when “however” joins two independent clauses.
答え: A · the Joneses’ house
The plural is “Joneses”. Because it ends in s, the plural possessive adds only an apostrophe: the Joneses’ house.
答え: B · Blocked
Occluded means closed off or obstructed.
答え: C · Frank
Candid means truthful and straightforward, which is the meaning of frank.
