1. In which chapter should she look for more information on herbal remedies to combat eczema?

• A. Chapter 8
• B. Chapter 10
• C. Chapter 11
• D. Chapter 12

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Eczema is a topical condition, so Chapter 12 (section D) would be the most appropriate place to look for information on herbal remedies to combat it. Chapter 8 focuses on herbs for adult needs, and while it may contain some relevant information, it is not specific to topical conditions like eczema. Chapters 10 and 11 cover respiratory and digestive conditions respectively, which are not relevant to treating eczema. Therefore, Chapter 12 is the best choice for Clothilde to find herbal remedies to combat eczema.

2. Which best describes the final two sentences of the announcement?

• A. a friendly reminder to all faculty members to bring a badge when entering the canteen
• B. a word of caution to faculty members about trying to enter the canteen at the wrong time
• C. an implied suggestion that faculty members should consider getting lunch elsewhere
• D. an indication of university sanctions for faculty members who enter the canteen outside the schedule

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The final two sentences in the announcement serve as a word of caution to faculty members about trying to enter the canteen at the wrong time. It emphasizes the importance of respecting the given schedule and displaying a department badge before entering for lunch. The tone indicates a warning rather than simply a friendly reminder or a suggestion to eat elsewhere. Choice A is incorrect as the tone is more cautionary than friendly. Choice C is incorrect as there is no implied suggestion to get lunch elsewhere; instead, the focus is on following the recommended schedule. Choice D is incorrect as there is no mention of university sanctions, but rather a request to display a department badge and respect the designated lunch schedules.

3. To which section of the library should Jorgen go to find out more about the current applications of the sieve of Eratosthenes?

• A. 000
• B. 100
• C. 400
• D. 500

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Jorgen should go to the 500 section of the library, which covers science and mathematics, to find out more about the current applications of the sieve of Eratosthenes. The sieve of Eratosthenes is a mathematical tool used to determine prime numbers, making the science and mathematics section the most appropriate choice. Philosophy and psychology (100), languages (400), and computer science (000) are not the primary areas where one would typically find information on the applications of this mathematical tool.

4. Based upon the contextual evidence provided in the passage above, what is the meaning of the term 'enterprise' in the third paragraph?

• A. Company
• B. Courage
• C. Game
• D. Cause

Correct answer: A

Rationale: 'Enterprise' here refers to a company or organization, particularly one that requires effort and initiative. In the passage, the term 'enterprise' is used in the context of establishing a Mechanic's Institution, emphasizing the involvement and support of the working man in such an organization. Choice B, 'Courage,' is incorrect as the term refers more to determination and initiative in creating and supporting the institution rather than bravery. Choice C, 'Game,' and choice D, 'Cause,' are also incorrect as they do not align with the context provided in the passage.

5. Which of the following battles occurred first?

• A. Cold Harbor
• B. Chancellorsville
• C. Atlanta
• D. Shiloh

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Shiloh occurred earlier than the other battles listed. Shiloh took place in April 1862 during the American Civil War, making it the earliest battle among the options provided. Cold Harbor occurred in June 1864, Chancellorsville in May 1863, and Atlanta in July-September 1864. Therefore, Shiloh is the correct answer. Choice A (Cold Harbor) is incorrect because it happened after Shiloh. Choice B (Chancellorsville) is incorrect because it occurred after Shiloh. Choice C (Atlanta) is also incorrect as it took place after Shiloh.
