• C. to offer Mr. Morgan the position of Lead Technician
• D. to notify Mr. Morgan that the review of candidates will take longer than expected

Rationale: The purpose of the passage is to inform Mr. Morgan that he will likely not receive an offer for the job of Lead Technician due to the high number of applicants. The passage mentions the high volume of applications and the competitive nature of the selection process, indicating that Mr. Morgan may not be successful. Choice B is incorrect because the passage does not express gratitude to Mr. Morgan but rather informs him of the situation. Choice C is incorrect as there is no offer made in the passage. Choice D is incorrect as the passage does not specifically state that the review will take longer than expected, but rather that it will take longer than previously stated.

• A. Smith and Jones
• B. Martin and Sons
• C. Williams Attorneys
• D. Thorn and Thomas

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A, Smith and Jones. In the provided extract, it mentions that Shia wanted to pursue a claim, and in the text, Smith and Jones specialize in worker's compensation legal issues. Furthermore, they offer a no-fee-unless-you-win service, ensuring the lowest cost for the employee.

3. Which of the following should the writer consult for more detailed information about the Bermuda Triangle?

• A. An encyclopedia entry about the Bermuda Triangle
• B. Travel journal entries from a ship captain who sailed the area frequently
• C. A brochure for a resort located in the Bermuda Triangle
• D. A biography of someone who disappeared in the Bermuda Triangle

Correct answer: A

Rationale: An encyclopedia would provide detailed and reliable information on the Bermuda Triangle, including its history and theories. This source is preferred over the other choices because it is likely to offer a comprehensive overview of the subject, covering various aspects such as geographical features, historical incidents, scientific explanations, and debunking myths. Travel journal entries may offer personal experiences but lack the breadth and depth of information provided in an encyclopedia entry. A brochure for a resort located in the Bermuda Triangle would focus on promoting the resort rather than providing factual information about the area. A biography of someone who disappeared in the Bermuda Triangle would be specific to that individual's story and not offer a general overview of the Bermuda Triangle.

• A. To read a Christmas story
• B. For the working man to have a say in the management of the institution designed for his benefit
• C. To have an opportunity to stand in their presence
• D. For the life of the institution to be essential to the audience as a whole

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B. The speaker's second desire for his time in front of the audience is for the working man to have a say in the management of the institution designed for his benefit. This is evident from the passage where the speaker emphasizes the importance of the working man having a share in the management of an institution designed for his benefit. Choice A is incorrect because although reading a Christmas story was mentioned as the first desire, it was not the second desire. Choice C is incorrect as the desire mentioned is not about standing in the audience's presence but rather about the working man having a say in the institution. Choice D is incorrect as it does not align with the speaker's second desire as mentioned in the passage.
