Nursing Elites

1. Raoul has an upcoming school project, and his own computer is not working. He needs to use the library computer, and he has estimated that he will need to be on the computer for approximately an hour and a half. How much of a fee can Raoul expect to pay for his computer use at the library?

• A. $6
• B. $9
• C. $12
• D. $15

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Raoul needs to use the computer for 90 minutes. The first 30 minutes are free, so he would pay for the remaining 60 minutes, which is 4 intervals of 15 minutes each. Each 15-minute period incurs a $3 charge, so for 60 minutes, Raoul would pay 4 x $3 = $12. Therefore, Raoul can expect to pay $12 for his computer use at the library. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct calculation based on the provided information.

2. Which of the following conclusions is supported by all the details provided about Eleanor Roosevelt's activities during the war in the Pacific?

• A. Eleanor Roosevelt was a dedicated and compassionate individual.
• B. Eleanor Roosevelt was a skilled military strategist.
• C. Eleanor Roosevelt was the commander of the troops in the Pacific.
• D. Eleanor Roosevelt was a professional athlete.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The exhaustive description of Eleanor Roosevelt's activities during the war in the Pacific showcases her dedication and compassion towards the troops and wounded. She tirelessly visited multiple Islands, inspected hospitals, delivered speeches, attended receptions, and interacted with convalescing officers and patients. Her efforts to lift spirits, boost morale, and personally connect with the wounded illustrate her as a dedicated and compassionate individual. The other choices are incorrect as there is no mention of her being a military strategist, a commander of troops, or a professional athlete in the provided details.

3. What is the definition of the word 'fry' as it appears in the passage?

• A. Fry eggs that have been fertilized.
• B. Young fish capable of feeding themselves.
• C. A place where larvae are kept safe from predators.
• D. Fish prepared to be fried in oil.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Young fish capable of feeding themselves.' In the provided extract, 'fry' refers to the young fish that are hatched out and are old enough to take charge of themselves. Choice A is incorrect as it refers to a different context of 'fry.' Choice C is incorrect as it describes a location rather than the meaning of 'fry.' Choice D is also incorrect as it provides a definition of 'fry' related to cooking, which is not the intended meaning in the passage.

4. 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.

5. Which of the following is NOT a way that theme is conveyed in nonfiction text?

• A. Through events
• B. Through word choice
• C. Through imagery
• D. Through meter

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Meter is a poetic device used in poetry to establish rhythm and rhyme, which is not typically found in nonfiction texts. In nonfiction, theme is often conveyed through events, word choice, and imagery. Events help illustrate the main ideas and messages, word choice influences the tone and mood of the text, and imagery enhances the descriptive elements. Therefore, meter, being more closely related to poetry, is not a common way to convey theme in nonfiction.
