ABASE

Don't abase your Russian girlfriend by making fun of her accent.

My stepfather is an evil man who likes to abase little children because he had a miserable childhood himself.

He has belittled himself by stealing from an old beggar.
ABHOR

I abhor this type of insulting behavior of my teacher.

Taking out the trash and washing dishes are chores many teenagers abhor. 

I hate discrimination of any kind.

ACCRETION

Sania was convinced that the accretion of ice on her car’s windshield was preventing her wipers from operating correctly. 

There are two main theories concerning massive star formation accretion and merger.

The only difficulty in this accumulation is to secure debtors that will not die.
ACQUIT

Even though general public believed the defendant was guilty, they could say nothing when the jury acquitted the man of all charges.

If the cricket players are not acquitted of domestic abuse charges, their role on the squad will be terminated for a year.

They tried to bribe the judge to discharge them.
ACRIMONY

The dispute between the two groups was settled without acrimony.

Amid the acrimony, somebody actually published some controversial news.

The level of bitterness doesn't likely die down soon.


ACUITY

Bikers need good visual acuity during the night.

When Archana had an ear infection, her auditory acuity was so low she could barely hear anything.

According to many youngsters, taking drugs does not decrease your intellectual acuity.

A shooter’s visual sharpness has to be exceptional because he must be able to clearly see his targets.

ACUMEN

New CEO demonstrated considerable business acumen.

 She lacked the judgment and political acumen for the post of managing director.

The firm's success is largely due to Brannon's commercial shrewdness.
ADEPT

Parshuram is an adept juggler who can easily manage four knives in the air without dropping one.

The saleswoman was adept at charming customers into spending more than they had planned. 

Our car driver is an expert at driving at fast speeds. 
ADROIT

My friend Mr. Kanak became adroit at dealing with difficult questions.

Junior Executive was adroit at flattering the manager.

 I am a man bonny muscle with good shape in skillful movement.
ADVOCATE

Any good dietician will advocate healthy eating for his clients.

If you are trying to gain weight, I would like to advocate that you start eating protein food. 

Ramya does not recommend the death penalty even though a man killed her father.

READING PASSAGE 30 You are advised to spend about 15 minutes on Questions 1-15 which refer to WRAP UP YOUR VISIT WITH THE PERFECT GIFT Section 1A ‘It is better to give than to receive’; Never look a gift horse in the mouth’; Beware of Greeks (ancient, of course) bearing gifts’. Gifts are a fundamental element of culture and our lives as social creatures. They are also an important part of our business relationships. There are occasions when giving a gift surpasses spoken communication, since the message it offers can cut through barriers of language and cultural diversity. Present a simple gift to your host in a foreign country and the chances are he or she will understand you perfectly, though you may not understand a single word of each other’s languages. It can convey a wealth of meaning about your appreciation of their hospitality and the importance you place upon the relationship. Combine the act of giving with some knowledge of and sensitivity to the cultur

Disposable, plastic pen The second is more curious It’s a small rolled tube of brown cardboard which pulls apart into a body and a lid, only the protruding plastic and brass of the writing tip gives its nature away It looks like something you might expect to find in a kit of stylish recycled paper envelopes and stationery But it is planned for more ubiquitous usage to meet the purchasing requirements of many government bodies and companies in Europe, requirements which are increasingly based on environmental criteria This cardboard pen is (supposedly) recyclable, the black plastic, parts of the pen are from already recycled material (from a shampoo bottle, or a disposable razor or possibly en another pen) It is a small example of a new tr

READING PASSAGE11 You should spend about 20 minutes on  Questions 1-14 which are based on Reading Passage 2 below. WHY SOME WOMEN CROSS THE FINISH LINE AHEAD OF MEN The course is tougher but women are staying the distance, reports Andrew Crisp. A    Women who apply for jobs in middle or senior management have a higher success rate than men, according to an employment survey. But of course, far fewer of them apply for these positions. The study, by recruitment consultants NB Selection, shows that while one in six men who appear on interview shortlists get jobs, the figure rises to one in four for women. B    The study concentrated on applications for management positions in the $45,000 to $110,000 salary range and found that women are more successful than men in both the private and public sectors. Dr. Elisabeth Marx from London-based NB Selection described the findings as encouraging for women, in that they send a positive message to them to apply for interesting
