• A. With a running time of 98 minutes, the pacing is quick and efficient.'
• B. You can see the toll this stalking experience has had on her every twitch of her eye and clench of her jaw.'
• C. The close-up shots feel claustrophobic like the perspective is skewed.'
• D. This is a tense thrill ride that will not disappoint fans of Joy Taylor or this genre in general.'

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. The sentence 'With a running time of 98 minutes, the pacing is quick and efficient' includes a fact, which is the running time of the movie. This statement provides a concrete, verifiable detail from the passage. Choice B describes a subjective observation about the character's behavior, not a fact. Choice C expresses an opinion about the visual effect of the close-up shots, not a factual detail. Choice D offers an opinion about the movie's appeal to fans of a specific genre, rather than presenting a fact from the passage.

2. Based upon the contextual evidence provided in the passage above, what is the meaning of the term enterprise in the third paragraph?

• A. Company
• B. Courage
• C. Game
• D. Cause

Correct answer: A

Rationale: In the third paragraph, the term 'enterprise' is used in the context of a group of travelers embarking on a journey together. In this context, 'enterprise' refers to a company or a group of people rather than courage, game, or cause. The word 'enterprise' is commonly used to denote a business organization or company, aligning with the idea of a group traveling together for a common purpose. 'Courage' and 'cause' do not fit the context of the travelers' journey, and 'game' is unrelated to the activities described in the passage.

3. Which of the following could accurately subtitle this passage?

• A. The start of the revolution
• B. American march from the sea
• C. The full armies face off
• D. In the state of Massachusetts

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The passage outlines significant events in Clara Barton's life, starting from her birth in Massachusetts, moving to Washington D.C., her humanitarian work during the Civil War, and her later efforts in Europe and with the Red Cross. The most accurate subtitle for this passage would be 'The start of the revolution,' as it refers to the beginning and progression of Barton's revolutionary work in humanitarian aid and establishing the American branch of the International Red Cross Organization. The other choices are not suitable subtitles as they do not encompass the breadth of Barton's impactful life events described in the passage.

4. Which of the following best expresses the meaning of "intelligence (instinct)" in the context of this passage?

• A. Instinct is synonymous with intelligence in the passage.
• B. Intelligence and instinct are not clearly distinct in the context.
• C. Instinct is a natural ability to perform actions without learned behavior.
• D. Instinct refers to an animal's natural survival mechanism.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Instinct refers to natural, unlearned behaviors, particularly in survival and reproduction.

5. During his study, Jenson finds himself increasingly drawn to information about the theaters of ancient Greece and particularly to the plays that the Greeks performed. What section of the library should he check next for more resources on the written plays that have survived from ancient Greece?

• A. 200
• B. 600
• C. 700
• D. 800

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Jenson should check section 800 for more resources on the written plays that have survived from ancient Greece. Section 800 generally covers literature and includes works of literary criticism, which would likely have information on ancient Greek plays, playwrights, and theatrical practices. Choice A (200) is for Religion, not related to ancient Greek plays. Choice B (600) is for Technical and applied science, unrelated to literature. Choice C (700) is for Arts and recreation, more related to the performing arts but not specifically focused on written plays from ancient Greece.
