1. Which of the following is not identified as a difference between the two authors?

• A. Malory wrote prose, while Tennyson wrote poetry.
• B. Malory wrote during the medieval era, while Tennyson wrote during the Victorian era.
• C. Malory was more focused on heroism and morality, while Tennyson was more focused on nature and elegy.
• D. Malory wrote stories about Gareth, Tristan, and Isolde, while Tennyson focused only on Arthur, Lancelot, and Guinevere.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The passage explicitly mentions that Malory included chapters on knights such as Lancelot and Gareth, and he discussed the relationships between Tristan and Isolde, and Lancelot and Guinevere. This shows that Malory did focus on a wider range of characters beyond just Arthur, Lancelot, and Guinevere. Therefore, the difference mentioned in option D is not accurate as it is identified in the passage that Malory did write stories about Gareth, Tristan, and Isolde. Choices A, B, and C are all correctly identified as differences between the two authors based on the passage provided.

2. From where is the author most likely drawing the statements in the passage?

• A. The writer's local university library
• B. The online writing lab at Purdue University
• C. Archive of recorded poetry and literature
• D. The writer's own knowledge and experience about theatre

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because the passage vividly describes the experience of going to the theatre, highlighting personal feelings and emotions that the author relates to. The passage emphasizes the connection between the audience and the story, indicating a personal perspective rather than research from a library, online source, or archive. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because the passage's content is focused on personal experiences and emotions related to the theatre, rather than academic or recorded sources.

3. To which section of the library should Jorgen go to learn more about the letters of the Greek alphabet and the meaning of the word 'beta'?

• A. 200
• B. 400
• C. 700
• D. 900

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Jorgen should go to section 400 in the library to learn more about the letters of the Greek alphabet and the meaning of the word 'beta.' Section 400 is dedicated to languages, making it the most suitable place to find information on alphabets. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because Section 200 is about religion, Section 700 is about arts and recreation, and Section 900 is about history, geography, and biography, which are not relevant to Jorgen's search for information on the Greek alphabet.

4. Which of the following is true about calcium-rich foods? I. Canned salmon with bones contains calcium. II. Cheese is a lactose-free food. III. Condensed soup made with water is a calcium-rich food.

• A. I only
• B. I and II only
• C. II and III only
• D. III only

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'I only.' Canned salmon with bones contains calcium as the bones are a good source of calcium, making statement I true. However, statement II is false as cheese is not a lactose-free food. Statement III is also incorrect as condensed soup made with water is not necessarily a calcium-rich food. Other calcium-rich options include dairy products like milk, yogurt, and specific non-dairy products like calcium-fortified juices, canned fish with bones, soybeans, and leafy greens.

5. How did Araminta Ross come to be known as Harriet Tubman?

• A. She changed her name to her husband's last name and her first name to her mother's name.
• B. She was named after the plantation owner's wife.
• C. She changed her name because she was wanted as an Underground Railroad runner.
• D. She changed her name to remain anonymous as a Civil War spy.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Araminta Ross came to be known as Harriet Tubman after marrying a free black man named John Tubman. She took her husband's last name 'Tubman' and changed her first name to 'Harriet,' which was her mother's name. This change of name was a personal choice after her marriage and not because she was named after the plantation owner's wife (B), wanted as an Underground Railroad runner (C), or to remain anonymous as a Civil War spy (D). Therefore, the correct answer is A.
