1. Which group contains the five phases used in traditional Chinese medicine?
Wood, fire, earth, metal, water
Wind, cold, heat, dampness, dryness
Heart, liver, spleen, lung, brain
Answer: A. Wood, fire, earth, metal, and water form the five-phase framework. The other options mix different categories. First identify which classification a question asks about before comparing the answers.
2. Within traditional five-phase correspondences, which phase is associated with the liver?
Metal
Wood
Water
Answer: B. The liver corresponds to wood in this traditional framework. Metal is associated with the lung, and water with the kidney. These are TCM theoretical correspondences, not descriptions of biomedical organ function.
3. Which pair best represents yin qualities in basic TCM terminology?
Warmth and movement
Brightness and ascent
Coolness and stillness
Answer: C. Coolness and stillness are yin qualities. Warmth, movement, brightness, and ascent are yang qualities. Learn the contrast as a relationship, rather than treating either category as inherently good or bad.
