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. Based on the information provided within the passage, which of the following can be inferred about King James II's son?

• A. Considering his resemblance to King James II, the young James was likely the legitimate child of the king and the queen.
• B. Given the queen's previous inability to produce a healthy child, there were suspicions about the prince's legitimacy by the English and the Lowland Scots.
• C. James 'the Pretender' was not as popular among the Highland clans as his son Bonnie Prince Charlie.
• D. James was unable to acquire the resources needed to build the army and plan the invasion that his son succeeded in doing.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The passage describes that the young James bore a strong resemblance to King James II, suggesting that he was likely the legitimate child of the king and the queen. This resemblance supports the inference that the young James was indeed their offspring. Choice B is incorrect because although there were suspicions about the prince's legitimacy, the passage does not mention these suspicions being based on the queen's previous inability to produce a healthy child. Choice C is incorrect as the passage does not compare the popularity of James 'the Pretender' among the Highland clans to his son Bonnie Prince Charlie. Choice D is also incorrect as the passage does not mention James's inability to acquire resources for building an army or planning an invasion.

3. Which of the following choices represents the best label for this passage?

• A. definition essay
• B. cause/effect essay
• C. comparison essay
• D. persuasive essay

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The passage provides factual information and details about the loss of barrier islands due to erosion and its impact on coastal communities. It focuses on defining and describing the issue rather than analyzing causes and effects, making it best classified as a definition essay. Choice B, cause/effect essay, would require a deeper exploration into the causes and effects of the erosion. Choice C, comparison essay, would involve comparing different aspects or scenarios, which is not the focus here. Choice D, persuasive essay, aims to convince the reader of a particular viewpoint, which is not the purpose of this passage.

4. Jorgen learns that Eratosthenes was fascinated by the story of the Trojan War and attempted to determine the exact dates when this event occurred. Unfamiliar with the story of the fall of Troy, Jorgen decides to look into writings such as The Iliad and The Odyssey by Homer. To which section of the library should Jorgen go to locate these works?

• A. 100
• B. 200
• C. 700
• D. 800

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Section 800 features works of literature, making it the best place for Jorgen to find The Iliad and The Odyssey. While the philosophy and psychology section (100) might contain references to these works, Jorgen would still have to go to the literature section to obtain the works themselves, as they are literary works. Similarly, the religion section (200) and the arts and recreation section (700) are not where these specific literary works would be located.

5. What is the best definition of economy as it is used in this passage?

• A. Exchange of money, goods, and services
• B. Delegation of household affairs
• C. Efficient money management
• D. Less expensive

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct definition of 'economy' in this passage is 'efficient money management.' The passage emphasizes the importance of expending less than what is earned, which is a key aspect of efficient money management. Choice A, 'Exchange of money, goods, and services,' is too broad and does not capture the essence of the passage. Choice B, 'Delegation of household affairs,' is not directly related to the context of the passage. Choice D, 'Less expensive,' does not encompass the concept of managing money efficiently as discussed in the passage.
