There is no penalty for incorrect answers on the Verbal Reasoning and Quantitative Reasoning sections. This means you should always answer every question, even if you have to guess.  \n2. Within any section of the test, you can mark questions you want to review and change your answers as long as the time for that section has not expired.  \n3. The Analytical Writing section is always presented first. The Verbal Reasoning and Quantitative Reasoning sections may appear in any order after the essay.  \n4. The test is taken on a computer, and test-takers are provided with scratch paper or a small whiteboard for notes.  \n5. The Quantitative Reasoning section includes an on-screen calculator.  \n6. There are no breaks during the test. Leaving your seat at any point will not stop the timer for the current section.  \n1. The researcher’s new theory was (i)   by her peers, who were initially skeptical but later came to see the value in her innovative approach.  \n(A) dismissed  \n(B) derided  \n(C) embraced  \n(D) overlooked  \n(E) scrutinized  \nCorrect Answer: (C) embraced  \nSolution:  \nThe sentence suggests a significant shift in the perspective of the peers regarding the theory. Initially, the peers were skeptical, which clearly indicates that they harbored doubts or uncertainty about the validity and value of the theory. Skepticism in this context reflects hesitation and a lack of full trust or belief in the theory’s potential. However, as time progressed and more evidence or understanding emerged, these peers gradually came to recognize the importance and significance of the theory. This transition—from initial doubt and reluctance to eventual recognition and acceptance—is crucial to grasp when determining the most appropriate word to describe their changing attitude.  \nThe word “embraced” captures this transformation exceptionally well. It implies more than simple acceptance; it suggests a positive, enthusiastic endorsement or wholehearted support of  \nthe theory after initially rejecting or questioning it. To embrace something means to welcome it openly and with approval, often accompanied by a sense of eagerness or conviction. Thus, the peers’ journey from skepticism to active support aligns perfectly with the connotations of this word. It emphasizes not only that they accepted the theory but that they did so with enthusiasm and genuine approval.  \nIn contrast, other words such as “tolerated” or “acknowledged” fail to convey this depth of positive change. Tolerated suggests merely enduring or allowing the theory’s presence without enthusiasm, while acknowledged implies recognition without necessarily implying approval or support. These terms lack the sense of active, enthusiastic acceptance that embraced effectively communicates. Therefore, considering the context and the nuance of the peers’ changing attitude, “embraced” is the most accurate and fitting choice.  \nHence, the correct answer is (C) embraced, as it best describes the peers’ progression from initial doubt to wholehearted acceptance and support of the theory.  \nQuick Tip  \nIn vocabulary-based questions, look for contextual clues that suggest the attitude or response of the subjects. Words like ”skeptical” followed by ”later came to see the value”often indicate a positive change in response.  \n2. The professor’s lectures were so (i)   that many students, even those who were initially interested in the subject, found themselves struggling to stay awake.  \n(A) engaging  \n(B) tedious  \n(C) illuminating  \n(D) profound  \n(E) concise  \nCorrect Answer: (B) tedious Solution:  \nThe sentence describes a situation where the students struggle to stay awake during the lectures. This clearly suggests that the lectures were not engaging or stimulating enough, leading t","cbCaivVZIcAfumOI","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivVZIcAfumOI","pdf",110851,13,"English","# General Instructions\n# Vocabulary Questions With Solutions\n## Question 1: peers’ response to a new theory\n## Question 2: lectures causing students to struggle to stay awake\n## Question 3: argument’s seemingly flawless nature","[{\"question\":\"Is there a penalty for incorrect answers in the Verbal Reasoning and Quantitative Reasoning sections?\",\"answer\":\"No. There is no penalty for incorrect answers, so test-takers should always answer every question, even if they have to guess.\"},{\"question\":\"Can I change answers after marking questions for review?\",\"answer\":\"Yes.
