1. Which of the following is not an example of something the author of Passage 1 claims travels from place to place through human environment?

• A. Fairy tales
• B. Language
• C. Ideas
• D. Foods

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Foods. The author of Passage 1 mentions language, ideas, and goods as examples of things that travel from place to place through the movement of peoples. There is no mention of food in the passage as something that is spread through human interaction. Fairy tales, language, and ideas are specifically highlighted in the text as elements that are transmitted through human interaction. While foods can be exchanged between cultures, the passage does not discuss them in the context of spreading through human interaction, making it the correct answer. Choice A (Fairy tales), B (Language), and C (Ideas) are all supported by the text as examples of things that travel through human environments, unlike food.

2. Which of the above options is most likely the best choice for Regina, considering her dairy allergy?

• A. Cream of potato soup
• B. Lentil soup
• C. Broccoli cheese soup
• D. Cream of tomato soup

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Given Regina's severe allergy to dairy products, the best choice for her would be Lentil soup. This option does not contain any dairy and is a nutritious choice that provides a good balance of protein, fiber, and other essential nutrients. It is a hearty and filling option that can help keep Regina satisfied and energized. Additionally, lentils are known for their health benefits, including promoting heart health and digestion. Choices A, C, and D are less suitable for Regina as they contain dairy or are not as nutritious as lentil soup.

3. While researching Chomsky's Jewish heritage, Teddy wants to research traditional Judaism. Which section of the library would most likely contain the most relevant information?

• A. 100
• B. 200
• C. 300
• D. 900

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: '200.' According to the Dewey Decimal System, religion falls under section 200. Traditional Judaism research aligns with religious studies, making section 200 the most suitable for finding relevant information. Choices A, C, and D do not directly relate to religious topics and are therefore less likely to contain information on traditional Judaism.

• A. Shia hears strange noises in the dark hallway
• B. Shia is working late at the office
• C. Shia is preparing for a presentation
• D. Shia encounters a terrifying situation in the CFO's office

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The main idea conveyed in the extract is that Shia encounters a terrifying situation in the CFO's office. The passage describes Shia hearing strange noises, feeling fear, and encountering alarming events like crashes and howls. This builds tension and indicates a dangerous situation unfolding. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect as they do not capture the central theme of Shia facing a frightening encounter in the CFO's office.

5. What does the 'nature of the fairy tale genre' refer to in Passage 2?

• A. The representation of basic human experience
• B. Good characters being pure good and bad characters being pure evil
• C. Different cultures coming up with similar versions of the same story
• D. Commoners becoming royalty

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The 'nature of the fairy tale genre' in Passage 2 refers to how fairy tales capture basic, fundamental human desires and fears, representing the most essential form of fictionalized human experience. This includes the portrayal of characters as purely good or purely evil, the celebration of themes such as romance and commoners becoming royalty, which all contribute to portraying basic human experiences in a symbolic and imaginative manner. The other choices are incorrect because while they may be elements present in fairy tales, they do not encompass the overarching concept of capturing basic human experiences as referred to in Passage 2.
