1. Choose the word nearest in meaning to 'abundant'.
  1. plentiful
  2. scarce
  3. narrow
  4. weak

Answer: A. plentiful

'Abundant' means existing in large quantities, so 'plentiful' is nearest in meaning.

  2. Neither the principal nor the teachers were present.
  3. Neither the principal or the teachers were present.
  4. Neither the principal nor the teachers is present yesterday.

Answer: B. Neither the principal nor the teachers were present.

With 'neither...nor', the verb agrees with the nearer plural subject 'teachers', so 'were' is correct.

A timid person is shy or lacking confidence, whereas a bold person is confident and daring.

In reported speech after a past reporting verb, 'have completed' normally changes to 'had completed' and the pronoun changes to 'he'.
