1. Considering the list of works that Angela read, into which category does 'The Cask of Amontillado' most likely fit?

• A. newspaper article
• B. book chapter
• C. short story
• D. television show episode

Correct answer: C

Rationale: 'The Cask of Amontillado' by Edgar Allan Poe is most likely a short story based on the information provided. The list of works that Angela read consisted of classic literature. Since the rule states that short stories should be placed in quotation marks, it aligns with the formatting rule. Therefore, 'The Cask of Amontillado' is most likely categorized as a short story. Choice A, newspaper article, is incorrect because newspaper articles are usually not considered classic literature. Choice B, book chapter, is incorrect as 'The Cask of Amontillado' is a standalone work and not a chapter within a book. Choice D, television show episode, is incorrect as the list of works provided consists of classic literary works, not television shows.

2. 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.

• C. Malory was more focused on heroism and morality, while Tennyson was more focused on nature and elegy.
• D. Malory wrote stories about Gareth, Tristan, and Isolde, while Tennyson focused only on Arthur, Lancelot, and Guinevere.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D. The passage doesn't specifically mention the characters Gareth, Tristan, and Isolde as being exclusive to Malory. However, it does highlight that Malory focused on Arthurian legends while Tennyson also wrote about the same characters. Choice A is incorrect because Malory wrote in prose, while Tennyson wrote in poetry, as stated in the passage. Choice B is incorrect as Malory wrote during the Medieval era, while Tennyson wrote during the Victorian era, according to the passage. Choice C is incorrect because Malory was more focused on heroism and morality, while Tennyson was more focused on nature and elegy, as mentioned in the extract.

• B. An autobiography written by someone whose parents are divorced
• C. A study that examines the mental health of children from various family structures
• D. A census that reflects the number of households with a nuclear family structure

Correct answer: C

Rationale: A study that examines the mental health of children from various family structures would provide the most comprehensive and relevant information for a research paper on the effects different family structures have on children. This type of study would offer insights based on empirical data and analysis, making it a reliable primary source. Choices A, B, and D might provide valuable perspectives, but a research study specifically focusing on the mental health outcomes of children from different family structures would offer more in-depth and specific information for the research paper.

However, it does discuss cicadas and their emergence, life cycle, and behavior. Therefore, the reader can conclude that the author is likely interested in cicadas and their natural history, indicating that they go to the theater as often as possible. Choice A is incorrect because there is no evidence regarding the author being overly emotional. Choice B is incorrect as there is no mention of the author's preference for concerts.
