1. Follow these instructions in chronological order to transform the word into something new. What new word has been spelled?

• A. TON
• B. THIN
• C. TIN
• D. TAN

Correct answer: C

Rationale: To transform the word LOATHING into something new, we need to follow the instructions in chronological order, which is to remove letters. Starting with L-O-A-T-H-I-N-G, if we remove the letters in the order given, we are left with T-I-N, which spells the word 'TIN.' This makes choice C the correct answer. Choices A, B, and D do not follow the specific sequence of removing letters from the original word LOATHING, so they are incorrect.

2. To which section of the library should Jorgen go to find one of the early maps created by Eratosthenes?

• A. 100
• B. 300
• C. 600
• D. 900

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Jorgen should go to the 900 section of the library: History, geography, and biography to find one of the early maps created by Eratosthenes. Eratosthenes, an Ancient Greek mathematician and poet, is known for his contributions to geography and is considered the first person to calculate the circumference of the earth. Therefore, his works on early maps would be categorized under history and geography. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they correspond to Philosophy and psychology, Social sciences, and Technical and applied science respectively, which are not relevant to finding maps created by Eratosthenes.

3. Which of the following is NOT mentioned by the author as a reason to visit Carl’s Car Depot?

• A. They are offering lifetime warranties on new cars.
• B. The sale will only last one day.
• C. They have the lowest prices in town.
• D. They are offering no money down and low monthly payments.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The author does not mention that Carl's Car Depot is offering lifetime warranties on new cars as a reason to visit. The mentioned reasons include the one-day sale, lowest prices in town, and the offering of no money down and low monthly payments. The extract clearly states that the focus is on the one-day sale, low monthly payments, and the lowest prices available, but there is no mention of lifetime warranties as a reason to visit.

4. The guide words at the top of a dictionary page are considerable and conspicuous. Which of the following words is an entry on this page?

• A. consonantal
• B. consumption
• C. conserve
• D. conquistador

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is "C: conserve." In a dictionary page where the guide words are "considerable" and "conspicuous," the word "conserve" would be an entry as it falls alphabetically within those guide words. Choice A, "consonantal," starts with a different letter, so it would not be located between the guide words. Choice B, "consumption," also starts with a different letter and would not be between the guide words. Choice D, "conquistador," starts with a different letter and is also far from the guide words alphabetically, making it an incorrect entry on this particular page.

5. Which of the following is a primary source that would be relevant to a biography about Jules Verne?

• A. Articles about Jules Verne written after his death
• B. Reviews of Jules Verne’s works
• C. Film adaptations of Jules Verne’s works
• D. Letters exchanged by Jules Verne and a close friend

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. Letters exchanged by Jules Verne and a close friend would be a primary source as they were written during his lifetime, providing direct insight into his thoughts and actions. Choices A, B, and C are not primary sources. Articles written after his death, reviews of his works, and film adaptations are considered secondary sources as they are interpretations or analyses based on primary materials.
