1. Sarah also wants to offer her vegan guests a slightly more filling option such as a light soup with some biscuits. Which two chapters of the cookbook should she consult?

• A. Chapter II and Chapter III
• B. Chapter I and Chapter III
• C. Chapter II and Chapter IV
• D. Chapter V and Chapter VI

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Sarah wants to offer her vegan guests a slightly more filling option such as a light soup with some biscuits. Chapter II of the cookbook covers light soups, making it a suitable choice for soup ideas. Chapter IV focuses on baking and bread recipes, including biscuits. By consulting Chapter II for soup recipes and Chapter IV for biscuit recipes, Sarah can find appropriate dishes for her vegan guests. Choice A (Chapter II and Chapter III) is incorrect because Chapter III does not cover biscuits. Choice B (Chapter I and Chapter III) is incorrect as biscuits are not part of Chapter I. Choice D (Chapter V and Chapter VI) is incorrect because these chapters do not contain relevant recipes for a light soup with biscuits.

2. 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.

3. Which of the following best describes the instructor's purpose in writing this email to his students?

• A. to berate students for the poor scores they received on the recent essay exam
• B. to encourage students to continue working hard despite failure
• C. to give students the opportunity to make up the bad score and avoid failing the course
• D. to admit that the essay exam was likely too difficult for most students

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C. The instructor's primary purpose in writing the email is to offer students the chance to make up the bad score they received on the recent essay exam, which was worth 70% of their final course score. The email does not berate students for their poor performance, nor does it admit that the exam was too difficult. While the instructor does offer encouragement to students who choose to complete an extra credit project, the main focus is on providing an opportunity to improve their scores and avoid failing the course.

4. With which of the following statements would the author most likely agree?

• A. There is no real mystery about the Bermuda Triangle because most events have reasonable explanations.
• B. Researchers are wrong to expand the focus of the Triangle to the Azores, as this increases the likelihood of accidents.
• C. The official statement of 'causes or reasons unknown' in the loss of the Navy planes was a deliberate concealment from the Navy.
• D. Reducing the legends about the mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle will help to reduce the number of reported accidents or shipping losses in the region.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The author would most likely agree with the statement that reducing the legends about the mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle will help to reduce the number of reported accidents or shipping losses in the region. This aligns with the perspective that many events in the Bermuda Triangle can be explained logically and that dispelling myths and legends can lead to a more accurate understanding of the phenomena occurring in the area. Choice A is incorrect because the author acknowledges that the Bermuda Triangle has sparked interest due to unexplained events. Choice B is incorrect as expanding the focus of the Triangle to the Azores is not associated with an increase in accidents, according to the author. Choice C is incorrect as the author does not suggest a deliberate concealment but rather points towards logical explanations for the events in the Bermuda Triangle.

5. Which type of evidence is used in the passage?

• A. emotional evidence
• B. appeal to authority
• C. specific evidence
• D. rhetorical questioning

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The passage uses specific evidence to support its claims. It presents factual information about the impact of private tutoring on students' grades, including a comparison of GPAs between students who had different types of tutoring. This specific evidence strengthens the argument by providing concrete data and examples. Emotional evidence, appeal to authority, and rhetorical questioning are not used in this passage, as it primarily relies on data and analysis to make its case.
