1. What is one point on which the scientist and politician agree?

• A. Burning fossil fuels causes global temperatures to rise.
• B. Global temperatures are increasing.
• C. Countries must revisit their energy policies before it's too late.
• D. Earth's climate naturally goes through warming and cooling periods.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 'Global temperatures are increasing.' The scientist and politician both agree on this point based on the context provided. Choice A is incorrect because while it might be a common belief among scientists, the politician's agreement is not explicitly mentioned. Choice C is incorrect as it suggests a course of action rather than a point of agreement. Choice D is incorrect as it contradicts the consensus that global temperatures are currently increasing due to human activities, not just natural climate cycles.

2. Based on the passages, what can we infer about the relationship between assault and lethal force?

• A. An act of lethal force always results from a type of assault.
• B. An assault will lead to the use of lethal force by someone.
• C. An assault with deadly intent can lead to an individual using lethal force to preserve their well-being.
• D. If someone uses self-defense in a conflict, it is considered deadly force; if actions or threats are intended, it is classified as assault.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: From the passages provided, it can be inferred that an assault with deadly intent can lead to an individual using lethal force to defend themselves and preserve their well-being. This suggests a relationship between assault with deadly intent and the potential use of lethal force in self-defense situations. Choice A is incorrect because lethal force is not always a direct result of assault, as it depends on the circumstances. Choice B is incorrect as not all assaults lead to the use of lethal force by someone. Choice D is incorrect as the definition of deadly force and assault are distinct, with deadly force typically being used in self-defense situations where there is an immediate threat of severe harm or death.

3. Which of the following resources would help a reader gather information about economic trade during World War 1?

• A. News articles and textbooks
• B. Social media and photographs
• C. Atlases and works of art
• D. Almanacs and music

Correct answer: A

Rationale: News articles and textbooks would provide the most relevant historical data on economic trade during World War 1. During significant events like World War 1, news articles would have reported on the economic aspects, such as trade disruptions and policies. Textbooks that cover the period would also delve into the economic impacts of the war. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because social media, photographs, atlases, works of art, almanacs, and music are less likely to contain specific information about economic trade during World War 1. Social media did not exist during that time, photographs, atlases, works of art, almanacs, and music are more focused on visual, geographical, artistic, or general historical aspects rather than detailed economic data.

4. Which organizational style is used in the following passage?

• A. Cause and effect order
• B. Compare and contrast order
• C. Spatial order
• D. Time order

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The passage uses a cause and effect order to explain the reasons for the cafe's lack of success. It presents causes (higher prices and early closure) first, followed by their effects (students unable to afford food and beverages, students going elsewhere). This structure helps readers understand the relationship between the causes and their resulting effects. Choice B, 'Compare and contrast order,' is incorrect as the passage does not focus on comparing different aspects or contrasting ideas. Choice C, 'Spatial order,' is incorrect as it does not describe physical locations or arrangements. Choice D, 'Time order,' is incorrect as the passage does not primarily follow a chronological sequence of events.

5. Which one of the following statements might be accurately inferred based on the above passage?

• A. The famous children's author produced a lesser-quality book under her pseudonym.
• B. The famous children's author has expertise in Antebellum America.
• C. The famous children's author did not receive adequate publicity for her historical novel.
• D. Historical fiction novels are more popular than children's series.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C. The passage mentions that the author published a historical fiction novel under a pseudonym, which received critical acclaim but did not sell as well as her children's books. This indicates that the author did not receive adequate publicity for her historical novel, as it did not reach the same level of popularity as her children's books. Choices A and B are incorrect as there is no mention of the quality of the book produced under the pseudonym or the author's expertise in Antebellum America. Choice D is also incorrect as the passage does not compare the overall popularity of historical fiction novels to children's series.
