To check the answers for each question, we need to identify which option does not fit with the underlined portion in the given sentence.
1. Each of the following could replace the underlined portion EXCEPT:
a. but
b. however,
c. or ***
d. yet
The underlined portion in the sentence is "moreover". The options that could replace it are "but", "however", and "yet", as they all indicate a contrast or alternative point. However, the word "or" does not fit in this context as it does not convey the same meaning as "moreover". Therefore, option c is the correct answer.
2. The ''hut tax,'' an annual payment made by each African household. It was the next insult to follow.
Underlined portion: household. It was
A. NO CHANGE
B. household, which was
c. household was ****
d. household, was
The underlined portion in the sentence is "household. It was". The options that could replace it are "household, which was" and "household, was", as they maintain the same structure of the sentence. However, option c, which is "household was", does not fit grammatically in the sentence. Therefore, option c is the correct answer.
3. After the war, Kenya became harder to rule. Led by Harry Thuku was a clerk in the Treasury, African Kenyans began to organize and protest British practices.
Underlined portion: Thuku was
A. No change

The underlined portion in the sentence is "Thuku was". The options that could replace it are "Thuku, ", "Thuku being", and "Thuku, he was". However, option b, which is "Thuku, ", does not fit grammatically in the sentence. Therefore, option b is the correct answer.
4. First there was the kipande, a pass carried in a small metal container which usually hung from the owner's neck on a piece of string.
Underlined portion: kipande, a
A. No change ***
B. kipande which a
c. kipande was a
d. kipande; a
The underlined portion in the sentence is "kipande, a". The options that could replace it are "kipande which a", "kipande was a", and "kipande; a". However, none of these options fit grammatically or convey the same meaning as the original sentence. Therefore, option A is the correct answer.
5. Not carried by whites, the pass reminded Africans that they were considered second-class citizens.
Underlined portion: reminding
A. NO CHANGE
B. reminded***
C. will remind
