1. What does Lady Bracknell's interrogation of Jack reveal about the nature of marriage in the society Wilde is critiquing?

• A. It shows that marriage is based on love and personal choice.
• B. It reveals that marriage is a serious, thoughtful decision.
• C. It illustrates that marriage is more about social standing and wealth than love.
• D. It suggests that marriage is an outdated institution.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Lady Bracknell's interrogation of Jack regarding his suitability as a husband for her daughter Gwendolen reveals that marriage in the society depicted in the play is more about wealth and social status than love. This is evident as Lady Bracknell places great emphasis on Jack's financial background, social connections, and suitability as a match based on these criteria. Choice A is incorrect because Lady Bracknell's focus is not on love or personal choice but on societal expectations and status. Choice B is incorrect as the interrogation highlights superficial considerations rather than portraying marriage as a serious, thoughtful decision. Choice D is also incorrect as the play does not suggest that marriage is outdated, but rather emphasizes its transactional and societal nature in the context of the aristocratic society being critiqued.

2. 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.

3. According to the timeline, which of the following events happens second?

• A. Barton works as a federal patent clerk
• B. Barton travels to Europe
• C. Barton identifies anonymous soldiers
• D. Barton works on the frontlines of the Civil War

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Based on the timeline provided, Barton working on the frontlines of the Civil War is the second event to occur. This event happened after her work as a patent clerk but before other events. Barton's travel to Europe and identification of anonymous soldiers happened after her service on the frontlines of the Civil War, making them later events in the timeline.

4. 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.

5. Julie Walker-Mayfield plans to register for fall classes at Chatham College. She works during the day and doesn't get off work until 5:30 PM. She also has no internet access at work and will have to register for classes once she gets home. Taking into account her personal schedule and the registration schedule provided by the college, when will she be able to go online to enter the registration system and select her classes?

• A. Monday, 10 AM-12 PM
• B. Monday, 5-7 PM
• C. Tuesday, 5-7 PM
• D. Tuesday, 8-10 PM

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Julie Walker-Mayfield doesn't get off work until 5:30 PM, so she won't be able to register for classes until she gets home. Considering she needs time to unwind after work and settle in, the earliest and most suitable time for her to enter the registration system and select her classes is Tuesday, 5-7 PM. Choice A is incorrect as it falls on Monday, and she gets off work at 5:30 PM. Choices B and D are also incorrect as she needs time to settle in after work before going online to register.
