1. What is the first thing you should do to help him?

• A. Ask the student what his assignment is and what type of books he is looking for
• B. Tell the student that books are shelved by the author's last name and guide him to locate the books he is looking for
• C. Find an opportunity later on to ask his teacher about the assignment, so you can assist him better next time he visits the library
• D. Invite another student from his class to help him, assuming they share the same assignment

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The first thing you should do to help the student is to provide guidance on how books are arranged in the library, which is by the author's last name, as observed in the science book section. By explaining this system to the student, you empower him to locate the books independently. This approach fosters self-reliance and problem-solving skills. Choice A is incorrect as it delays addressing the immediate need, which is helping the student navigate the library. Choice C is also incorrect as it suggests postponing assistance to a later time. Choice D is not the best course of action as it doesn't directly help the confused student in the moment.

2. This passage is mainly about

• A. slaves in the Civil War.
• B. how slaves escaped along the Underground Railroad.
• C. Harriet Tubman's role as an abolitionist leader.
• D. Harriet Tubman's life as a slave.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The passage is mainly about Harriet Tubman's role as an abolitionist leader. It discusses her efforts to help slaves escape to freedom through the Underground Railroad and highlights her significant impact on the abolitionist movement. The focus is on Tubman's leadership and involvement in the fight against slavery, rather than just her life as a slave or the general experience of slaves during the Civil War. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because while the passage mentions slavery, the Civil War, and Tubman's life as a slave, the primary emphasis is on her leadership and activism in the abolitionist movement.

3. Which of the following statements about the passage is true?

• A. These cookies should be baked on a baking rack
• B. These cookies cannot be cooked in a microwave oven
• C. Folding in peanut butter must be done gently
• D. Beating egg whites involves stirring them vigorously

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct statement about the passage is that beating egg whites involves stirring them vigorously. In the provided extract, it mentions 'Beat egg white until foamy. Stir in sugar, beat again until stiff peaks form.' This process of beating the egg whites until stiff peaks form requires vigorous stirring. Choice A is incorrect because the passage does not mention using a baking rack for cooking the cookies. Choice B is incorrect as the passage provides instructions for baking the cookies in an oven. Choice C is incorrect as the passage does not emphasize the need for gentle folding when mixing in the peanut butter.

4. 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.

5. Based on the context of the passage, the reader can infer that this information is likely to appear in which of the following types of works?

• A. A scholarly biography
• B. A mystery novel
• C. A fictional story
• D. A biography

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The passage provides a detailed historical account of Queen Victoria's lineage, ascension to the throne, and reign, making it suitable for a biography. The passage focuses on presenting factual information about Queen Victoria's life rather than analyzing it, which aligns more with a biography than a scholarly paper. It does not contain elements of mystery or fiction, as it recounts historical events and real-life figures. Therefore, a biography is the most appropriate choice based on the content and style of the passage.
