Q1. The use of steroids and inhalers for asthma is to:
A heal it
B relieve it Correct
C cure it
D intensify it
Explanation
Steroids and inhalers are used in asthma to reduce inflammation, open the airways, and ease symptoms such as breathlessness or wheezing; therefore, they relieve the condition. "Heal it" suggests repairing an injury or making the disease disappear, which is not the usual meaning here. "Cure it" is stronger than the passage supports, because asthma is commonly managed rather than permanently removed. "Intensify it" means to make it worse, which is the opposite of the treatment's purpose.
