“Dear residents, the lift (elevator) in Block A will be out of service from Monday to Wednesday. We apologise for the inconvenience. Residents who need help with heavy items may call the caretaker.” What is the main purpose of the message?
A survey on a fitness website asked visitors, “How many days a week do you exercise?” Most answered five or more. The website reported, “Most adults exercise five days a week.” Why is this conclusion questionable?
Choose the correct word: “Neither Tom ___ Lisa was late.”
Choose the correct verb: “If she had studied, she ___ the exam.”
Choose the meaning of the word in bold: “She felt vertigo every time she stood up quickly.”
Choose the meaning of the word in bold: “His symptoms were intermittent.”
答え: A · To inform residents about the lift and offer help
The message tells residents the lift will be out of service and offers the caretaker’s help with heavy items.
答え: C · Visitors to a fitness site are not typical adults.
People who visit a fitness website probably exercise more than average, so the sample is biased and cannot represent all adults.
答え: C · nor
“Neither” pairs with “nor”, just as “either” pairs with “or” and “both” pairs with “and”.
答え: A · would have passed
The third conditional uses “if + had + past participle” and “would have + past participle”. “Would of” is a misspelling of “would’ve”.
答え: A · A spinning sensation
Vertigo is a sensation that you or your surroundings are spinning.
答え: D · Coming and going at intervals
Intermittent means stopping and starting at intervals, not continuous.
