1. Which of the following words, as used in the timeline, indicates the chronology of events in Barton's life?

• A. Front
• B. First
• C. After
• D. Through

Correct answer: C

Rationale: 'After' is used to indicate that one event happened following another in time. In the context of a timeline, 'After' signifies the sequence of events, showing what occurred subsequent to a particular point in time. In the provided extract, events unfold in a specific order, with each event happening 'after' the previous one. Choices A, B, and D do not inherently convey the idea of chronological order and are not suitable for indicating the sequence of events in a timeline.

2. What would be the most helpful advice for the student starting a research assignment on Japanese-American internment camps during World War II?

• A. Conduct a broad internet search to get a wide view of the subject.
• B. Consult an American history textbook.
• C. Find websites about Japanese culture such as fashion and politics.
• D. Locate texts in the library related to World War II in America and look for references to internment camps in the index.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The best advice for the student would be to locate texts in the library related to World War II in America and look for references to internment camps. This choice is the most appropriate as it focuses on accessing specific and credible sources directly related to the research topic. Choices A and C are too broad and may not provide in-depth information on the internment camps. Choice B, while related to American history, may not offer the specific details needed for the research assignment on Japanese-American internment camps during World War II.

3. Which of the following best provides detailed support for the claim that 'seatbelts save lives'?

• A. A government website containing driving accident information
• B. A blog developed by one of the largest car companies in the world
• C. An encyclopedia entry on the seatbelt and its development
• D. A social media post from a famous race car driver

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A. Government websites usually contain reliable and detailed statistics supporting the effectiveness of seatbelts. Choice B, a blog from a car company, may have biased information to promote their products. Choice C, an encyclopedia entry, may not necessarily have the most up-to-date or detailed information on the topic. Choice D, a social media post from a race car driver, lacks the credibility and detailed information that a government website can provide.

4. Based on the information provided, what is the most logical reason for the watering schedule having the same number for both Friday and Saturday?

• A. There are more addresses ending with these numbers than with the other numbers.
• B. All businesses have addresses ending in these numbers, and they consume the most water.
• C. The residents at these addresses are the most likely to consume more water.
• D. The city is more concerned about water usage in the latter part of the week.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The most logical reason for the watering schedule having the same number for both Friday and Saturday is that the residents at addresses ending with these numbers are the most likely to consume more water. This indicates a trend in water consumption among residents at these specific addresses, leading to the need for consistent watering on both days. Choice A is incorrect as the number of addresses ending with specific numbers does not necessarily correlate with water consumption. Choice B is incorrect as there is no information suggesting that businesses consuming the most water have addresses ending with these numbers. Choice D is incorrect as there is no evidence to support that the city is more concerned about water usage specifically in the latter part of the week.

5. Which of the following is the meaning of the word bestowed as it is used in the passage?

• A. purchased
• B. forgotten
• C. accepted
• D. given

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The word 'bestowed' in this context means to be given or presented with something. In the passage, it is mentioned that good powers were bestowed upon different animals by Epimetheus. This implies that these powers were given or presented to the animals. Choice A, 'purchased,' does not align with the context of the passage as the animals did not buy or acquire these powers. Choice B, 'forgotten,' is incorrect as it does not relate to the act of giving. Choice C, 'accepted,' is also incorrect as it implies that the animals willingly received these powers, which is not the case in the passage. Therefore, the correct answer is 'D: given.'
