Coral reefs cover less than one percent of the ocean floor, yet they are home to about a quarter of all marine species. Warmer water can cause corals to lose the algae that feed them, a process called bleaching. What does the word “yet” signal in the first sentence?
“When the power went out, Grandpa calmly lit the candles, found the radio and told us stories about storms from his childhood.” Which word best describes Grandpa?
Choose the correct word form: “The nurse spoke with great ___.”
Which revision fixes the comma splice by making one clause dependent? “The alarm sounded, the staff moved patients to safety.”
Choose the meaning of the word in bold: “The nurse reinforced the teaching about insulin injections.”
What does the term hysterectomy mean?
答案: A · A contrast between the reefs’ small area and their many species
“Yet” contrasts the small size of reefs with the large number of species they support.
答案: D · Composed
Calmly lighting candles and telling stories shows he stayed composed (calm and in control) rather than frightened.
答案: B · confidence
“Confidence” is a noun and can follow the adjective “great”. “Confident” is an adjective, “confidently” an adverb and “confide” a verb.
答案: C · When the alarm sounded, the staff moved patients to safety.
B, C and D also fix the comma splice, but they keep both clauses independent. Only A adds the subordinating conjunction “when”, which makes the first clause dependent.
答案: B · Strengthened it by repeating it
To reinforce is to strengthen something, for example by repeating key points of teaching.
答案: D · Surgical removal of the uterus
A hysterectomy is the surgical removal of the uterus (hyster/o = uterus, -ectomy = removal).
