1. Which term is most closely aligned with the definition of the term working man as it is defined in the following passage?

• A. Plebeian
• B. Viscount
• C. Entrepreneur
• D. Bourgeois

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is 'Plebeian' as it represents the common people, which aligns closely with the definition of a 'working man.' 'Viscount' refers to a nobleman ranking above a baron but below an earl. 'Entrepreneur' is a person who organizes and operates a business, typically taking financial risks in the hope of profit. 'Bourgeois' relates to the middle class, typically with reference to its perceived materialistic values or conventional attitudes.

2. Based on the context, which of the following is the meaning of the word move in the passage?

• A. drive
• B. sell
• C. advance forward
• D. change location

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In the context provided, the word 'move' is used to indicate that the vehicles are 'marked to move quickly,' which implies that they are intended to be sold rapidly. Therefore, the correct meaning of 'move' in this context is 'sell.' Options A, C, and D do not accurately capture the intention of the word as it is used in the passage. While 'advance forward' (Option C) might seem plausible, the context of a sales event and the urgency to buy due to low prices indicate that 'sell' is the most fitting interpretation.

3. Based on the context of the passage, the reader can infer that this information is likely to appear in which of the following types of works?

• A. A scholarly biography
• B. A mystery novel
• C. A fictional story
• D. A biography

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The passage provides a detailed historical account of Queen Victoria's lineage, ascension to the throne, and reign, making it suitable for a biography. The passage focuses on presenting factual information about Queen Victoria's life rather than analyzing it, which aligns more with a biography than a scholarly paper. It does not contain elements of mystery or fiction, as it recounts historical events and real-life figures. Therefore, a biography is the most appropriate choice based on the content and style of the passage.

4. After an unexpected rearrangement of their schedules, Thomas and his sister realize that they will have to squeeze in the film after 10 p.m. Given this new information, which cinema is the best option?

• A. Twin Theatres
• B. Reveler Cinema
• C. Big Screen 14
• D. Best Seat in The House

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Since Thomas and his sister have to squeeze in the film after 10 p.m., they need to watch the film later in the evening. Among the options, Reveler Cinema offers showtimes after 10 p.m. with a showing at 7:15 p.m., making it the best choice. Twin Theatres, Big Screen 14, and Best Seat in The House do not have showtimes after 10 p.m., making Reveler Cinema the most suitable option for the siblings to catch a film at that time.

5. Which of the following sentences uses the word 'smart' with a negative connotation, rather than a positive connotation or simply the word's denotation?

• A. Eliot's teacher said he was not quite gifted, but too smart for a general class.
• B. Eliot was smart to have studied the day before the test; he got a good grade.
• C. Eliot was identified by his teacher as one of the smart students in her classes.
• D. Eliot got into trouble when he gave a smart answer to his teacher's question.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: In sentence D, the word 'smart' is used with a negative connotation as it describes Eliot getting into trouble for giving a smart answer to his teacher's question. This implies that being smart in this context led to a negative consequence. Choices A, B, and C use 'smart' in a positive or neutral light, highlighting intelligence or wise decisions without any negative implications.
