1. Jenson also discovers that the meaning behind many of the plays was closely related to the polytheistic beliefs that were practiced in ancient Greece. What section of the library should he check for more information about Greek polytheism?

• A. 100
• B. 200
• C. 300
• D. 900

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Jenson should check section 200 of the library for more information about Greek polytheism. In the Dewey Decimal Classification system used in libraries, section 200 covers topics related to religion. Since Greek polytheism is a religious belief system, relevant resources and information about it are most likely found in the 200s section of the library. Choice A (100) covers Philosophy and Psychology, which is not directly related to religion like Greek polytheism. Choice C (300) covers Social Sciences, which is not the most appropriate section for information on religious beliefs. Choice D (900) covers History, Geography, and Biography, which are also unrelated to the specific topic of Greek polytheism.

2. What is the first thing you should do to help him?

• A. Ask the student what his assignment is and what type of books he is looking for
• B. Tell the student that books are shelved by the author's last name and guide him to locate the books he is looking for
• C. Find an opportunity later on to ask his teacher about the assignment, so you can assist him better next time he visits the library
• D. Invite another student from his class to help him, assuming they share the same assignment

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The first thing you should do to help the student is to provide guidance on how books are arranged in the library, which is by the author's last name, as observed in the science book section. By explaining this system to the student, you empower him to locate the books independently. This approach fosters self-reliance and problem-solving skills. Choice A is incorrect as it delays addressing the immediate need, which is helping the student navigate the library. Choice C is also incorrect as it suggests postponing assistance to a later time. Choice D is not the best course of action as it doesn't directly help the confused student in the moment.

3. Which of these descriptions provides the most detailed and objective support for the claim that drinking and driving is unsafe?

• A. A dramatized television commercial reenacting a fatal accident.
• B. The Department of Transportation's press release noting the deployment of additional patrol units.
• C. Congressional written testimony on drinking incidents.
• D. A highway bulletin warning of penalties for drinking and driving.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Congressional written testimony on drinking incidents provides the most detailed and factual data on the subject, making it the most objective support for the claim that drinking and driving is unsafe. Choice A, the dramatized television commercial, may be emotionally impactful but lacks detailed data. Choice B, the Department of Transportation's press release, focuses on enforcement actions rather than detailed information on the dangers. Choice D, the highway bulletin warning of penalties, emphasizes consequences rather than providing detailed support for the claim.

4. From the passage, which of the following statements represents a logical conclusion about the author?

• A. The author loves to attend theatrical productions
• B. The author prefers musical comedies
• C. The author also enjoys concerts and movies
• D. The author finds theater seating comfortable

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. The passage does not provide any information about the author's preference for musical comedies (choice B), enjoyment of concerts and movies (choice C), or comfort with theater seating (choice D). However, the passage does mention cicadas and their emergence, not providing any details that connect to the author's preferences. Therefore, the only logical conclusion that can be drawn about the author is that they love attending theatrical productions, as suggested by the deep love for attending theater productions.

5. Which of the following statements represents an exaggerated claim in support of the argument presented in this passage?

• A. In the United States, the foreign language requirement for high school graduation varies depending on the state.
• B. Studying a foreign language is crucial for success in the global economy.
• C. High school graduates with foreign language credits have a higher college acceptance rate.
• D. Students who did not study a foreign language are completely unable to secure any job.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because it is an exaggerated claim to state that students who did not study a foreign language are completely unable to secure any job. While proficiency in a foreign language may enhance job prospects, it is unrealistic to suggest that not studying one would render someone unemployable. Choice A provides a factual statement about the variation in foreign language requirements, so it cannot be considered an exaggeration. Choices B and C highlight the increasing importance of foreign language skills and the benefits of having them, which are supported by trends and studies. These choices may be debatable, but they are not exaggerated claims.
