Nursing Elites

1. After an unexpected rearrangement of their schedules, Thomas and his sister realize that they will have to squeeze in the film after 10 p.m. Given this new information, which cinema is the best option?

• A. Twin Theatres
• B. Reveler Cinema
• C. Big Screen 14
• D. Best Seat in The House

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Since Thomas and his sister have to squeeze in the film after 10 p.m., they need to watch the film later in the evening. Among the options, Reveler Cinema offers showtimes after 10 p.m. with a showing at 7:15 p.m., making it the best choice. Twin Theatres, Big Screen 14, and Best Seat in The House do not have showtimes after 10 p.m., making Reveler Cinema the most suitable option for the siblings to catch a film at that time.

2. Which of the following best describes the instructor's purpose in writing this email to his students?

• A. to berate students for the poor scores they received on the recent essay exam
• B. to encourage students to continue working hard despite failure
• C. to give students the opportunity to make up the bad score and avoid failing the course
• D. to admit that the essay exam was likely too difficult for most students

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C. The instructor's primary purpose in writing the email is to offer students the chance to make up the bad score they received on the recent essay exam, which was worth 70% of their final course score. The email does not berate students for their poor performance, nor does it admit that the exam was too difficult. While the instructor does offer encouragement to students who choose to complete an extra credit project, the main focus is on providing an opportunity to improve their scores and avoid failing the course.

3. Which of the following statements best expresses the main idea of the passage?

• A. Getting a job is easier now than it ever has been before.
• B. Earning money is much less difficult than managing it properly.
• C. Dr. Franklin advocated getting a job in a mill.
• D. Spending money is the greatest temptation in the world.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The main idea of the passage is that while making money may seem easy, managing it wisely is much more challenging. The author emphasizes the importance of spending less than what is earned to achieve financial stability. Choice A is incorrect as the passage focuses on the challenges of managing money, not on the ease of getting a job. Choice C is incorrect as Dr. Franklin is mentioned in the context of a quote about the simplicity of the road to wealth, not advocating getting a job in a mill. Choice D is incorrect as the passage does not primarily discuss spending money as the greatest temptation, but rather highlights the difficulty in managing money effectively.

4. In a volleyball game, who can score a point?

• A. the receiving team
• B. the serving team
• C. any team
• D. neither team

Correct answer: B

Rationale: According to the passage, only the serving team can score in a volleyball game. After the ball is served, the serving team earns points by winning a rally. The receiving team aims to stop the serving team and win the rally to gain the serve. Therefore, the correct answer is the serving team. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as the receiving team does not score points, both teams do not score, and there is indeed scoring in volleyball.

5. What does the 'nature of the fairy tale genre' refer to in Passage 2?

• A. The representation of basic human experience
• B. Good characters being pure good and bad characters being pure evil
• C. Different cultures coming up with similar versions of the same story
• D. Commoners becoming royalty

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The 'nature of the fairy tale genre' in Passage 2 refers to the representation of basic human experiences. The passage emphasizes that fairy tales embody fundamental human desires and fears, portraying characters as either pure good or pure evil and celebrating themes like romance and transformation. This representation of basic human experiences makes fairy tales relatable and universal, resonating with audiences across various cultures and time periods. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because while they may be elements found in fairy tales, they do not capture the essence of the 'nature of the fairy tale genre' as being rooted in the representation of fundamental human experiences.
