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 lists Julia’s actions in the correct sequence?

• A. Julia woke up early and found she didn’t have any regular coffee. When she got to work, her boss had a lot for her to do. When the fire alarm went off, she decided to go home.
• B. Julia got to work and decided she was too tired to do the work her boss asked for, so she went home to get a cup of coffee.
• C. Julia woke up when the fire alarm went off and couldn’t get back to sleep. She then got stuck in traffic and arrived at work thirty minutes late.
• D. Julia was woken up early by a lawnmower and then got stuck in traffic on the way to her office. Once there, she found that the office was out of coffee and she had a lot of work to do. When the fire alarm went off, she decided to go home.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Option D provides a sequence of events that align with the extract provided. Julia was woken up early by a lawnmower, couldn't go back to sleep, discovered she was out of regular coffee, got stuck in traffic on the way to work, found the office was out of coffee, had a lot of work to do, and decided to go home when the fire alarm went off. This sequence accurately reflects the chronological order of Julia's actions throughout the day. Choices A, B, and C do not follow a logical sequence of events based on the extract, making them incorrect.

3. Which phrase best describes the purpose of nonfiction writing?

• A. To inform, entertain, or persuade readers
• B. To entertain, then to inform
• C. To convince readers they're wrong about the author's subject
• D. None of the above

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'To inform, entertain, or persuade readers.' Nonfiction writing aims to provide factual information (inform), engage the audience (entertain), or influence their opinions (persuade). Choice B is incorrect because informing usually takes precedence over entertaining in nonfiction. Choice C is incorrect as the primary goal is not to convince readers they're wrong but rather to present information or arguments. Choice D is incorrect as there are clear purposes for nonfiction writing.

4. Which of the following describes the structure of the above passage?

• A. problem-solution
• B. sequence
• C. comparison-contrast
• D. cause-effect

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 'comparison-contrast.' Throughout the passage, the author compares and contrasts the Arthurian writings of Malory and Tennyson, highlighting the differences and similarities between their approaches to the Arthurian legends. The structure of the passage is focused on contrasting Malory's prose style and moral elements with Tennyson's poetic and romantic approach, making it a clear comparison-contrast. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect. The passage does not present a problem and its solution, follow a strict sequence of events, or outline cause-effect relationships; instead, it emphasizes the differences and similarities between the two authors' interpretations of the Arthurian stories.

5. Which of the above options is most likely the best choice for Regina, considering her dairy allergy?

• A. Cream of potato soup
• B. Lentil soup
• C. Broccoli cheese soup
• D. Cream of tomato soup

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Given Regina's severe allergy to dairy products, the best choice for her would be Lentil soup. This option does not contain any dairy and is a nutritious choice that provides a good balance of protein, fiber, and other essential nutrients. It is a hearty and filling option that can help keep Regina satisfied and energized. Additionally, lentils are known for their health benefits, including promoting heart health and digestion. Choices A, C, and D are less suitable for Regina as they contain dairy or are not as nutritious as lentil soup.
