1. Anna is planning a trip to Bretagne, or Brittany, in the northwestern part of France. Since she knows very little about it, she is hoping to find information about hiking trails, beaches, restaurants, and accommodations. Which of the following guides will be the best for her to review?

• A. The Top Ten Places to Visit in Brittany, published by a non-profit organization in Bretagne aiming to attract tourism to the region
• B. Getting to Know Nantes: Eating, Staying, and Sightseeing in Brittany's Largest City, published by the French Ministry of Tourism
• C. Hiking Through Bretagne: The Best Trails for Discovering Northwestern France, published by a company specializing in travel for those wanting to experience the outdoors
• D. The Complete Guide to Brittany, published by a travel book company that provides guides for travel throughout Europe

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The best guide for Anna to review would be 'Hiking Through Bretagne: The Best Trails for Discovering Northwestern France,' published by a company specializing in travel for those wanting to experience the outdoors. Since Anna is interested in hiking and outdoor activities, a guide that focuses on outdoor trails in Northwestern France would be the most suitable choice. Choice A, 'The Top Ten Places to Visit in Brittany,' may not provide detailed information about hiking trails. Choice B, 'Getting to Know Nantes,' focuses on a specific city and may not cover the broader region of Bretagne. Choice D, 'The Complete Guide to Brittany,' although comprehensive, may not emphasize hiking trails and outdoor experiences as much as choice C.

2. Which of the following conclusions can be drawn from the passage?

• A. Plastic pollution poses a significant environmental threat due to its lasting nature and difficulty in recycling.
• B. Plastic is an outdated material with no advantages.
• C. Recycling plastic significantly reduces environmental pollution.
• D. Plastic pollution has no impact on marine life.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct conclusion that can be drawn from the passage is that plastic pollution poses a significant environmental threat due to its lasting nature and difficulty in recycling. The passage highlights the challenges of recycling plastic due to its low quality when recycled, leading to pollution and environmental hazards. It mentions the presence of a large island of plastic in the Pacific Ocean, showing the severe impact of plastic pollution on the environment. Therefore, choice A is the most accurate conclusion. Choice B is incorrect as the passage mentions that plastic has many advantages despite its recycling challenges. Choice C is incorrect as the passage indicates that recycling plastic is difficult due to its low quality when recycled. Choice D is incorrect as the passage clearly states that plastic consumption by marine life like fish and birds is a reality, showing the impact of plastic pollution on marine ecosystems.

3. On which day of the week will they be able to water their lawn?

• A. Tuesday
• B. Wednesday
• C. Thursday
• D. Saturday

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Based on the town's watering schedule, residents with addresses ending in 7 should water their lawns on Wednesdays. The Morgan family's address ends in 7, so they should set up their watering schedule for Wednesdays. Therefore, the correct answer is Wednesday. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they correspond to days designated for addresses ending in other numbers according to the town's schedule.

4. What is the best definition of the underlined word in the selection below, taken from the third paragraph of the passage? 'You should try to be aware of your consumption of water and energy.'

• A. Using the greatest amount
• B. Illness of the lungs
• C. Using the least amount
• D. Depletion of goods

Correct answer: D

Rationale: In this context, 'consumption' refers to the use or depletion of resources like water and energy. It is not about using the greatest amount (choice A) or the least amount (choice C) but about being mindful of how much you use to avoid depletion. 'Illness of the lungs' (choice B) is completely unrelated to the context of resource conservation discussed in the passage.

5. When should you redirect your dog's biting behavior?

• A. When your dog bites something inappropriate

The extract suggests that redirecting biting behavior is necessary when your dog bites something it shouldn't.
