1. Which detail is not given as a side effect of NSAIDs?

• A. Nausea
• B. Headache
• C. Weight loss
• D. Dizziness

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The passage lists several side effects of NSAIDs, including nausea, headache, and dizziness. However, weight loss is not mentioned as a side effect, making option C the correct choice since it does not align with the details provided in the text.

2. Which sound waves have a higher pitch?

• A. Those waves that are closer together
• B. Those waves that are farther apart
• C. Those waves that travel a long distance
• D. Those waves that travel a short distance

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Sound waves that are closer together have a higher pitch. This is explained by the Doppler Effect, where as a source of sound moves closer to an observer, the waves are compressed, resulting in a higher frequency and a higher pitch. Conversely, when the source moves away, the waves are stretched, leading to a lower frequency and a lower pitch. Therefore, choice A is correct. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not accurately describe the relationship between sound wave frequency and pitch.

3. 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.

4. What statement can be implied from the content of the article?

• A. Diversity is interesting to learn about.
• B. Everyone should learn to use chopsticks.
• C. European methods of eating are the best.
• D. Space travel has made eating easier.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct statement that can be implied from the content of the article is that diversity is interesting to learn about. The passage discusses different cultural methods of eating, highlighting the value of discovering these differences and learning new ways to do things. Choice B is incorrect as it focuses on a specific eating tool without capturing the broader message of cultural diversity. Choice C is incorrect as it suggests a superiority of European methods without considering the value of diversity. Choice D is incorrect as the passage mentions that space travel has created new challenges for consuming food, not necessarily making eating easier.

5. What is stated in the passage about Sleep Apnea?

• A. Sleep apnea causes chronic illness.
• B. Sleep apnea affects intellectual abilities.
• C. Sleep apnea leads to early death.
• D. Sleep apnea causes breathing interruptions.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is 'D: Sleep apnea causes breathing interruptions.' The passage explicitly mentions sleep apnea as a condition where an individual stops breathing during sleep, indicating breathing interruptions. Choice A is incorrect because the passage does not directly state that sleep apnea causes chronic illness. Choice B is incorrect because the passage discusses how lack of sleep affects intellectual abilities but does not specifically attribute this to sleep apnea. Choice C is incorrect as the passage does not mention sleep apnea leading to early death. Therefore, the most accurate statement about sleep apnea based on the passage is that it causes breathing interruptions.
