1. What body of water does The Golden Gate Bridge cross?

• A. San Francisco Bay
• B. Pacific Ocean
• C. Marin Strait
• D. Indian Ocean

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The Golden Gate Bridge crosses the entrance to San Francisco Bay, spanning the Golden Gate Strait. It does not cross the Pacific Ocean, Marin Strait, or Indian Ocean directly. The iconic bridge connects the city of San Francisco to Marin County in California. The Pacific Ocean is a vast body of water beyond the Golden Gate entrance, and Marin Strait is not a recognized geographical location. The Indian Ocean is located on a different continent and is not related to the Golden Gate Bridge's location.

2. The passage explicitly states?

• A. That the highest card within the 'trump' suit always wins the trick.
• B. That there is a pile of leftover cards that is placed in the middle of the game table.
• C. If a player cannot follow suit, they lose their turn to the next player.
• D. The Ace card is always the lowest card.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'That the highest card within the 'trump' suit always wins the trick.' The passage explicitly mentions that in the game of Bridge, if a player plays a card from the trump suit, it always wins the trick. This detail is clearly stated in the text, making it the correct choice. Choice B is incorrect as there is no mention of a pile of leftover cards in the passage. Choice C is incorrect as the passage does not state that a player loses their turn if they cannot follow suit; instead, they play any card. Choice D is incorrect as the passage states that the ace is high, not low.

3. What is the meaning of the word 'deceptive' as it is used in the fifth paragraph?

• A. misleading
• B. malicious
• C. illegal
• D. irritating

Correct answer: A

Rationale: In the context provided, 'deceptive' means misleading. The passage discusses how the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) regulates product advertising to ensure that all information is truthful and not misleading. Therefore, the correct answer is 'A: misleading.' Choice B, 'malicious,' is incorrect as it implies harmful intent, which is not necessarily conveyed by the term 'deceptive' in this context. Choice C, 'illegal,' is incorrect because 'deceptive' does not solely refer to something being against the law, but rather to misleading information. Choice D, 'irritating,' is also incorrect as it does not capture the essence of 'deceptive' as used in the passage.

4. Which statement about Lifewings Partners is a fact?

• A. Everyone should have access to Lifewings.
• B. The people in Lifewings are modern heroes.
• C. Steve Harden was clever to found Lifewings.
• D. Lifewings is based in Memphis, Tennessee.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The statement that Lifewings is based in Memphis, Tennessee, is a verifiable fact found in the passage. In contrast, the other statements express opinions or subjective views about the organization, which makes option D the correct choice since it represents a factual statement.

5. Which of the following is not mentioned as a detail in the passage about Sickle-Cell Anemia?

• A. People of South American or African descent may be prone to sickle-cell anemia.
• B. Symptoms of sickle-cell anemia may include sudden occurrences of extreme abdominal and back pain.
• C. The red blood cells of sickle-cell patients are unusually shaped, forming crescent or sickle shapes.
• D. Vitamin and mineral deficiencies may result in some anemia.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because the passage does not mention anything about vitamin and mineral deficiencies in relation to sickle-cell anemia. Choice A is incorrect as the passage specifies that sickle-cell anemia is more common among people of South American or African descent. Choice B is correct as the passage states that symptoms of sickle-cell anemia can include sudden occurrences of extreme abdominal and back pain. Choice C is correct as the passage describes that the red blood cells of sickle-cell patients are unusually shaped, forming crescent or sickle shapes. The passage does not discuss any relationship between vitamin and mineral deficiencies and sickle-cell anemia, making choice D the correct option.
