• A. A person staffing this position may work independently and/or as part of a team.
• B. Veronica Davis will make the hiring decisions.
• C. Caseloads will start out small for new hires.
• D. A candidate could work part-time if he or she chooses to.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: It can be inferred from the advertisement that a person staffing this position may work independently and/or as part of a team. The job description mentions the requirement for the ability to work both self-directed and as part of a team, indicating flexibility in working styles. Choice B is incorrect as Veronica Smith is mentioned as the contact for application submission, not the hiring decision-maker. Choice C is incorrect as there is no mention of caseload sizes for new hires. Choice D is incorrect as the advertisement does not specify part-time work as an option.

2. In which chapter should Clothilde look for more information about how to do this?

• A. Chapter 3
• B. Chapter 4
• C. Chapter 2
• D. Chapter 1

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Clothilde should look for more information on how to prune her elderberry plant and utilize the elderflowers for tea and homemade wine in Chapter 4: Herbs in Food. This chapter typically covers information on using herbs in various culinary and beverage preparations, which aligns with Clothilde's goals. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because Chapter 4, specifically focusing on herbs in food, is the most relevant chapter for Clothilde's inquiry on utilizing elderflowers for tea and wine.

3. What is the new word?

• A. REVEST
• B. REVERT
• C. REVIEW
• D. REVERSE

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The new word can be formed by following the transformation steps: Remove the P, Replace the first A with the final E, Remove the I, Remove the C, and Remove the A from PREVARICATE, resulting in the word 'REVERT.' Choices A, C, and D do not match the rearrangement of letters provided in the instructions.

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 term is most closely aligned with the definition of the term working man as it is defined in the following passage?

• A. Plebeian
• B. Viscount
• C. Entrepreneur
• D. Bourgeois

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Plebeian' as it represents the common people, which aligns closely with the definition of a 'working man.' 'Viscount' refers to a nobleman ranking above a baron but below an earl. 'Entrepreneur' is a person who organizes and operates a business, typically taking financial risks in the hope of profit. 'Bourgeois' relates to the middle class, typically with reference to its perceived materialistic values or conventional attitudes.
