Nursing Elites

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 is part of the world view, with which we may not agree, that the author implies we might absorb from these movies if we're careless and unquestioning:

• A. Enemies of the U.S. do not ever fight for legitimate causes.
• B. The community is morally bankrupt.
• C. The U.S. is complex.
• D. The U.S. is not skilled at warfare.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. Throughout the text, the author discusses how American war movies often portray U.S. enemies as lacking legitimate causes. This portrayal can lead to a simplistic view of global conflicts and perpetuate stereotypes. Choice B is incorrect as the text does not discuss the community being morally bankrupt. Choice C is incorrect as the focus is not on the complexity of the U.S. but on the portrayal of enemies and heroes. Choice D is incorrect as the text actually mentions that the hero in the movies is highly skilled at warfare.

3. Which of the following would be a useful source of information to determine the validity of the argument presented in this passage?

• A. A survey of high school students' foreign language preferences
• B. A comparison of the correlation between learning a second language at home and subsequent job placement rates
• C. A survey that asks parents about the foreign language they want their children to study in high school
• D. A comparison of the correlation between high school students' study of a foreign language and subsequent college acceptance rates

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Choice D is the correct answer as it can provide evidence to support the claim made in the passage that high school graduates who studied a foreign language are more likely to be accepted to college. This choice aligns with the argument presented in the passage, making it a useful source. Choices A and C focus on opinions rather than concrete evidence of the impact of studying a foreign language on future success. Choice B is not directly relevant as it talks about learning a second language at home, while the passage specifically discusses the importance of studying a foreign language in high school.

4. To which section of the library should Jorgen go to learn more about the letters of the Greek alphabet and the meaning of the word 'beta'?

• A. 200
• B. 400
• C. 700
• D. 900

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Jorgen should go to section 400 in the library to learn more about the Greek alphabet and the meaning of the word 'beta'. Section 400 is dedicated to languages, which makes it the most appropriate place for this specific inquiry. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because section 200 is dedicated to religion, section 700 covers arts and recreation, and section 900 focuses on history, geography, and biography, none of which would provide information about the Greek alphabet or the word 'beta'.

5. To which chapter should Regina turn if she needs to find out what to do if the car begins overheating?

• A. III
• B. IV
• C. VI
• D. I

Correct answer: C

Rationale: An overheating vehicle is considered an emergency situation, so Regina should refer to Chapter VI, which covers emergencies in the car owner's manual. Chapter III focuses on Audio, Climate, and Voice Controls, which is not relevant to an overheating car. Chapter IV discusses Pre-Driving and Driving, which does not address overheating. Chapter I pertains to Vehicle Instruments and is not the appropriate chapter for handling an overheating car.
