1 Following the -υς adjective pattern, what is the feminine nominative singular of ταχύς ? ταχύα ταχέα ταχεῖα ταχῦσα
In the feminine the final υ is replaced by ει and -α 1st declension endings are added, as in εὐθεῖα .
2 Which forms of εὐθύς have a stem ending in υ ? Select all that apply εὐθύς (masc nom sg)εὐθύν (masc acc sg)εὐθύ (neut nom/acc sg)εὐθέως (gen sg)εὐθεῖς (masc nom pl)
For masc/neut only the nom and acc singular have a υ- stem; all other forms have an ε- stem.
3 δίκαιος is not specified for scale structure: it is compatible with both open-scale (‘righteous’) and closed-scale (‘innocent’) interpretations.True or false True False
Luke 1:6 shows the open-scale sense and Rom 5:7 the closed-scale sense; the ambiguity in meaning comes from scalar ambiguity.
4 Which of these passive forms shows the passive θ dropping out? ἠγέρθην ἐσπάρην ἐγερθήσομαι ἀπηγγέλθην
σπείρω drops the θ (ἐσπάρην) , while ἐγείρω retains it; ἀπαγγέλλω shows both patterns.
5 Which statements about verbs with λ or ρ stems are correct? Select all that apply The σ of Elusa drops before λ and ρ In Luso, the theme vowel lengthens when σ drops out λ and ρ normally drop out before the Leluka κ Some verbs, like ἀπαγγέλλω , show both passive patterns
λ and ρ are normally retained before the Leluka κ (ἀπέσταλκα) ; the other three statements describe the paradigm correctly.

Besides its temporal uses, ἕως can mark where something ends spatially: ‘up to the top.’
7 How is τότε used in ἀπὸ τότε ἡ βασιλεία τοῦ θεοῦ εὐαγγελίζεται (Luke 16:16)? Sequentially, for a new time after another Referentially, for the time period just mentioned Spatially, for where preaching ends Generically, for a regular pattern
τότε refers back to the salient time period just introduced (the law and the prophets until John).
8 How does the lesson harmonize the accusative with δεῖ and the accusative after ἐρωτᾷ ? Both accusatives are really dative subjects ἐρωτᾷ has no object, only an infinitiveThe accusative with δεῖ can be analyzed as its object and the subject of the infinitive, with an impersonal true subject Infinitives actually take nominative subjects
δεῖ literally means ‘bind,’ so its accusative can be both its object and the infinitive’s subject, just like the accusative after ἐρωτᾷ .
9 In ἀλώπεκες φωλεοὺς ἔχουσιν (Matt 8:20), the bare plural ἀλώπεκες refers to a specific group of foxes. True or false True False
In this generic sentence, the bare plural has a kind interpretation, referring to the whole class of foxes.
