1. In which chapter should Clothilde look for more information about how to do this?

• A. Chapter 3
• B. Chapter 4
• C. Chapter 2
• D. Chapter 1

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Clothilde should look for more information on how to prune her elderberry plant and utilize the elderflowers for tea and homemade wine in Chapter 4: Herbs in Food. This chapter typically covers information on using herbs in various culinary and beverage preparations, which aligns with Clothilde's goals. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because Chapter 4, specifically focusing on herbs in food, is the most relevant chapter for Clothilde's inquiry on utilizing elderflowers for tea and wine.

2. What most likely describes the relationship between the author and Alan?

• A. competitive
• B. formal
• C. friendly
• D. caring

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The most likely description of the relationship between the author and Alan is friendly. The author's message to Alan is filled with warmth, concern, and offers of help, indicating a positive and supportive tone. The use of phrases like 'I just wanted to drop you a quick note' and 'Let me know if you want any special treats' reflect a friendly and amicable relationship. Choices A, B, and D are not as suitable as competitive, formal, or caring relationships do not align as strongly with the friendly and supportive nature of the interaction described in the text.

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. Based on the information in the announcement, what might the reader assume about how the university determined the lunch schedule?

• A. The university arranged the schedule alphabetically, according to the name of each department.
• B. The university checked with the departments in advance to make sure faculty members would be amenable to the change.
• C. The university checked to see when the most faculty members from each department would be entering the canteen.
• D. The university was more concerned about crowding in the canteen and simply decided to establish different times for each department.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The announcement states that the university polled the various departments about schedules to determine a recommended roster for each department to visit the canteen for lunch. This indicates that the university checked to see when the most faculty members from each department would be entering the canteen to offset the crowding issue. Therefore, the correct choice is C. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because there is no mention of arranging the schedule alphabetically, checking with departments in advance for agreement, or simply establishing different times without considering faculty members' schedules in the announcement. The university's approach was to tailor the lunch schedule based on each department's peak entry times to manage the crowding problem effectively.

5. Which of the following words is a synonym for avian in this passage?

• A. Bird
• B. Flying
• C. Aerial
• D. Plane

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The word 'avian' refers to birds, so the synonym is 'Bird.' In the provided passage, the term 'avian' is used to refer to birds, making 'Bird' the correct synonym. 'Flying' and 'Aerial' are related to the concept of flight but do not specifically refer to birds. 'Plane' refers to an aircraft and is not synonymous with 'avian' or 'bird.' Therefore, 'Bird' is the most appropriate choice as a synonym for avian in this context.
