1. Which of the following is NOT mentioned by the author as a reason to visit Carl’s Car Depot?

• A. They are offering lifetime warranties on new cars.
• B. The sale will only last one day.
• C. They have the lowest prices in town.
• D. They are offering no money down and low monthly payments.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The author does not mention that Carl's Car Depot is offering lifetime warranties on new cars as a reason to visit. The mentioned reasons include the one-day sale, lowest prices in town, and the offering of no money down and low monthly payments. The extract clearly states that the focus is on the one-day sale, low monthly payments, and the lowest prices available, but there is no mention of lifetime warranties as a reason to visit.

2. Which of the following occurred first in Alexander Graham Bell's life?

• A. Helped found the National Geographic Society.
• B. Developed a metal detector.
• C. Moved to Canada.
• D. Invented the telephone.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Alexander Graham Bell moved to Canada early in his life, before inventing the telephone and developing other technologies. Choice A is incorrect because Bell did not help found the National Geographic Society; this happened years after his major inventions. Choice B is incorrect because Bell developed a metal detector after inventing the telephone. Choice D is incorrect because Bell invented the telephone after moving to Canada.

3. With which of the following statements would the author of the passage most likely agree?

• A. Malory and Tennyson shaped their approach to the Arthurian legends based on the defining qualities of their respective eras.
• B. Because Le Morte d'Arthur is more of a translation than a literary creation, Idylls of the King is a superior work.
• C. By undermining the moral qualities that Malory highlighted, Tennyson failed to appreciate the larger purpose of the stories in a medieval context.
• D. Ultimately, Malory's influence on Tennyson was minimal because Tennyson took a different approach and infused his poems with the mood of his day.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The author of the passage would most likely agree with the statement that Malory and Tennyson shaped their approach to the Arthurian legends based on the defining qualities of their respective eras. The passage discusses how Malory emphasized the moral elements in Medieval literature, while Tennyson, as a Victorian poet, focused more on romantic qualities and nature in his works. This difference in emphasis reflects the characteristics of their eras. Therefore, choice A aligns with the author's likely agreement. Choice B is incorrect because it incorrectly compares the two works based on translation and creation, which is not the main point of comparison discussed in the passage. Choice C is incorrect because Tennyson's different approach does not necessarily mean he failed to appreciate the stories' purpose, but rather highlights a shift in emphasis. Choice D is incorrect because the passage indicates that Tennyson was indeed heavily influenced by Malory, albeit with a different approach, making Malory's influence significant rather than minimal.

4. In which chapter should she look for more information on herbal remedies to combat eczema?

• A. Chapter 8
• B. Chapter 10
• C. Chapter 11
• D. Chapter 12

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Eczema is a topical condition, so Chapter 12 (section D) would be the most appropriate place to look for information on herbal remedies to combat it. Chapter 8 focuses on herbs for adult needs, and while it may contain some relevant information, it is not specific to topical conditions like eczema. Chapters 10 and 11 cover respiratory and digestive conditions respectively, which are not relevant to treating eczema. Therefore, Chapter 12 is the best choice for Clothilde to find herbal remedies to combat eczema.

5. Which of the following could be considered a theme of the passage?

• A. Anyone can become royalty.
• B. People should only marry for advantage.
• C. Queen Victoria was a fair, but unlikely, queen.
• D. Even the most unlikely events can happen.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The theme of the passage revolves around the idea that even the most unlikely events can happen. The passage describes the improbable events leading to Queen Victoria becoming the queen, emphasizing how unpredictable and unexpected her rise to the throne was. Choice A is not supported as Victoria was born into royalty, so not just anyone can become royalty as implied. While there are mentions of marriages for advantage in the passage, it is not the central theme but rather a detail in the historical context, making choice B incorrect. Although the passage discusses Queen Victoria being an unlikely queen, this statement is too specific to be a theme; a theme should be broader and universally applicable, making choice C incorrect.
