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 of the following supports evaluating a logical argument?

• A. Unbiased information
• B. Generalizations
• C. Emotional statements
• D. Anecdotes

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Unbiased information is crucial for assessing the validity and soundness of an argument. It helps in making informed judgments based on facts rather than personal opinions or biases. Choice B, generalizations, can oversimplify complex issues and lack specific evidence, making them unreliable for evaluating logical arguments. Emotional statements (Choice C) can cloud judgment and introduce subjective elements that may not be logically relevant. Anecdotes (Choice D) are specific instances that may not represent the overall truth or validity of an argument, making them less reliable for logical evaluation.

3. Jorgen learns that Eratosthenes was fascinated by the story of the Trojan War and attempted to determine the exact dates when this event occurred. Unfamiliar with the story of the fall of Troy, Jorgen decides to look into writings such as The Iliad and The Odyssey by Homer. To which section of the library should Jorgen go to locate these works?

• A. 100
• B. 200
• C. 700
• D. 800

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Section 800 features works of literature, making it the best place for Jorgen to find The Iliad and The Odyssey. While the philosophy and psychology section (100) might contain references to these works, Jorgen would still have to go to the literature section to obtain the works themselves, as they are literary works. Similarly, the religion section (200) and the arts and recreation section (700) are not where these specific literary works would be located.

4. What is the main idea conveyed in the extract?

• A. Shia hears strange noises in the dark hallway
• B. Shia is working late at the office
• C. Shia is preparing for a presentation
• D. Shia encounters a terrifying situation in the CFO's office

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The main idea conveyed in the extract is that Shia encounters a terrifying situation in the CFO's office. The passage describes Shia hearing strange noises, feeling fear, and encountering alarming events like crashes and howls. This builds tension and indicates a dangerous situation unfolding. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not capture the central theme of Shia facing a frightening encounter in the CFO's office.

5. Which of the following statements best expresses the main idea of the passage?

• A. Getting a job is easier now than it ever has been before.
• B. Earning money is much less difficult than managing it properly.
• C. Dr. Franklin advocated getting a job in a mill.
• D. Spending money is the greatest temptation in the world.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The main idea of the passage is that while making money may seem easy, managing it wisely is much more challenging. The author emphasizes the importance of spending less than what is earned to achieve financial stability. Choice A is incorrect as the passage focuses on the challenges of managing money, not on the ease of getting a job. Choice C is incorrect as Dr. Franklin is mentioned in the context of a quote about the simplicity of the road to wealth, not advocating getting a job in a mill. Choice D is incorrect as the passage does not primarily discuss spending money as the greatest temptation, but rather highlights the difficulty in managing money effectively.
