1. Anna is planning a trip to Bretagne, or Brittany, in the northwestern part of France. Since she knows very little about it, she is hoping to find information about hiking trails, beaches, restaurants, and accommodations. Which of the following guides will be the best for her to review?

• A. The Top Ten Places to Visit in Brittany, published by a non-profit organization in Bretagne aiming to attract tourism to the region
• B. Getting to Know Nantes: Eating, Staying, and Sightseeing in Brittany's Largest City, published by the French Ministry of Tourism
• C. Hiking Through Bretagne: The Best Trails for Discovering Northwestern France, published by a company specializing in travel for those wanting to experience the outdoors
• D. The Complete Guide to Brittany, published by a travel book company that provides guides for travel throughout Europe

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The best guide for Anna to review would be 'Hiking Through Bretagne: The Best Trails for Discovering Northwestern France,' published by a company specializing in travel for those wanting to experience the outdoors. Since Anna is interested in hiking and outdoor activities, a guide that focuses on outdoor trails in Northwestern France would be the most suitable choice. Choice A, 'The Top Ten Places to Visit in Brittany,' may not provide detailed information about hiking trails. Choice B, 'Getting to Know Nantes,' focuses on a specific city and may not cover the broader region of Bretagne. Choice D, 'The Complete Guide to Brittany,' although comprehensive, may not emphasize hiking trails and outdoor experiences as much as choice C.

2. Based on the context, which of the following is the meaning of the word match in the sentence?

• A. a competitive event
• B. a suitable pair
• C. a slender piece of wood used to start a fire
• D. a prospective marriage partner

Correct answer: A

Rationale: In the context of the sentence, the word 'match' refers to a competitive event, likely a sports match or game that Victoria participated in and won easily. This is the most appropriate interpretation based on the context provided. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not fit the context of the sentence. 'A suitable pair,' 'a slender piece of wood used to start a fire,' and 'a prospective marriage partner' do not relate to Victoria winning a match in a sports context.

3. Which choice correctly matches these samples with incompletely met criteria?

• A. Sample 1's evidence is not sufficient; sample 2's evidence is not relevant; sample 3's evidence is not factual.
• B. Sample 1's evidence is not factual; sample 2's evidence is not sufficient; sample 3's evidence is not relevant.
• C. Sample 1's evidence is not relevant; sample 2's evidence is not factual; sample 3's evidence is not sufficient.
• D. The evidence of samples 1 and 3 is insufficient; sample 2's evidence is factual but irrelevant.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Choice C correctly matches the samples with incompletely met criteria. It states that sample 1's evidence is not relevant, sample 2's evidence is not factual, and sample 3's evidence is not sufficient. This aligns with the criteria mentioned, indicating a lack of relevance, factual accuracy, and sufficiency in each sample, respectively. Choices A, B, and D do not accurately match the samples with the given criteria, making them incorrect. In choice A, while sample 1's evidence is not sufficient, sample 2's evidence is not relevant, and sample 3's evidence is not factual, the order in which these aspects are mentioned is not aligned with the criteria provided. Choice B has the correct order but mismatches the criteria with the samples. Choice D incorrectly assesses the evidence of the samples, focusing on sufficiency and relevance but not aligning with the specified criteria for each sample.

4. According to the passage, what health issue can result from alcohol abuse?

• A. poor magnesium absorption.
• B. an impairment of kidney function.
• C. compromise of the immune system.
• D. gastrointestinal disorders.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C, compromise of the immune system. The passage states that alcohol abuse can weaken the immune system, making individuals more susceptible to infections and illnesses. This compromise of the immune system can lead to various health issues and exacerbate existing conditions. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect based on the passage. While the passage discusses the impact of alcohol abuse on magnesium absorption and kidney function, it does not directly attribute these issues to alcohol abuse. Gastrointestinal disorders are mentioned in relation to magnesium absorption but are not specifically linked to alcohol abuse.

5. What can one infer about the meaning of the word 'Juggernaut' from the author's use of it in the passage?

• A. It is an apparition that appears at daybreak.
• B. It scares children.
• C. It is associated with space travel.
• D. Mr. Utterson finds it soothing.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The word 'Juggernaut' is used metaphorically in the passage to describe a powerful and destructive force, as seen when the child is trodden down and left screaming. This metaphorical usage aligns with choice B, 'It scares children,' as it conveys the idea of something imposing and frightening. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not capture the negative and forceful connotation associated with the term 'Juggernaut' in the passage. Therefore, the correct answer is B.
