1. Based on the scenario provided, which of the following inferences can be validly made?

• A. This director consistently produces unsuccessful movies.
• B. Movie reviews have no impact on the success of a film.
• C. The movie reviewers' assessments of the first movie were correct.
• D. The director's next movie will receive positive reviews.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Choice C is the correct answer because the scenario indicates that the negative reviews of the first movie were accurate, as the subsequent poor performance of the movie aligns with the critics' assessments. Choices A and D are incorrect as the scenario only provides information about the first movie and its repercussions, not about the director's consistent performance or the future reception of their movies. Choice B is incorrect because the scenario clearly demonstrates that negative reviews had a significant impact on the movie's performance, contradicting the idea that movie reviews have no influence.

2. Which muscle causes a joint to bend?

• A. Cardiac
• B. Extension
• C. Flexor
• D. Smooth

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Flexor. A flexor muscle contracts to bend a joint, such as bending the elbow or knee. Flexor muscles are responsible for flexing or bending a joint, while extensor muscles are responsible for extending or straightening a joint. Choice A, Cardiac, is incorrect as cardiac muscle is found in the heart and is responsible for pumping blood. Choice B, Extension, is incorrect as extension refers to the straightening or extending movement of a joint, which is opposite to bending. Choice D, Smooth, is incorrect as smooth muscles are involuntary muscles found in organs like the intestines and blood vessels, not directly responsible for bending joints.

3. What is the primary function of nervous tissue?

• A. Movement
• B. Protection
• C. Communication and coordination
• D. Nutrient transport

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The primary function of nervous tissue is communication and coordination within the body. Nervous tissue is composed of neurons that transmit electrical signals and supporting cells known as neuroglia. Movement is primarily controlled by the muscular system, protection is mainly provided by the skeletal system and immune system, and nutrient transport is carried out by the circulatory system. Therefore, choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not align with the primary function of nervous tissue.

4. Based on the context, which of the following is the meaning of the word match in the sentence?

• A. a competitive event
• B. a suitable pair
• C. a slender piece of wood used to start a fire
• D. a prospective marriage partner

Correct answer: A

Rationale: In the context of the sentence, the word 'match' refers to a competitive event, likely a sports match or game that Victoria participated in and won easily. This is the most appropriate interpretation based on the context provided. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not fit the context of the sentence. 'A suitable pair,' 'a slender piece of wood used to start a fire,' and 'a prospective marriage partner' do not relate to Victoria winning a match in a sports context.

5. What happens to the force of gravity between two objects when the distance between them is doubled?

• A. The force increases by a factor of 2
• B. The force increases by a factor of 4
• C. The force decreases by a factor of 2
• D. The force decreases by a factor of 4

Correct answer: D

Rationale: According to the law of universal gravitation, the force of gravity between two objects is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. When the distance is doubled, the force decreases by a factor of 2 squared, which is 4. Therefore, the force decreases by a factor of 4. Choice A is incorrect because the force doesn't increase when the distance is doubled. Choice B is incorrect as the force doesn't increase but actually decreases. Choice C is incorrect as the force decreases by a factor of 4, not 2.
