Nursing Elites

1. Jenson also discovers that the meaning behind many of the plays was closely related to the polytheistic beliefs that were practiced in ancient Greece. What section of the library should he check for more information about Greek polytheism?

• A. 100
• B. 200
• C. 300
• D. 900

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Jenson should check section 200 of the library for more information about Greek polytheism. In the Dewey Decimal Classification system used in libraries, section 200 covers topics related to religion. Since Greek polytheism is a religious belief system, relevant resources and information about it are most likely found in the 200s section of the library. Choice A (100) covers Philosophy and Psychology, which is not directly related to religion like Greek polytheism. Choice C (300) covers Social Sciences, which is not the most appropriate section for information on religious beliefs. Choice D (900) covers History, Geography, and Biography, which are also unrelated to the specific topic of Greek polytheism.

2. What is the word 'principal' referring to in the following text?

• A. Primary or chief
• B. An acolyte
• C. An individual who provides nurturing
• D. One in a subordinate position

Correct answer: A

Rationale: In the provided text, 'principal' is referring to the primary or chief individual. The principal secretary for private affairs is considered second only to the treasurer, indicating a position of high importance. The term 'acolyte' (Choice B) refers to a ceremonial assistant, which does not fit the context. 'An individual who provides nurturing' (Choice C) and 'One in a subordinate position' (Choice D) do not accurately describe the role of the 'principal' in the text.

3. Which of the following is not an example of something that the author of Passage 1 states might be found in a fairy tale?

• A. Trolls
• B. Witches
• C. Talking animals
• D. Giants

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The author of Passage 1 mentions trolls, elves, giants, and talking animals as examples of imaginary creatures found in fairy tales. However, witches are not specifically mentioned. Therefore, witches are not an example of something the author states might be found in a fairy tale in Passage 1. Choice B is the correct answer. Choice A, trolls, Choice C, talking animals, and Choice D, giants, are all examples provided by the author in the passage, making them incorrect answers.

4. What was the author's intent in the passage?

• A. To persuade
• B. To entertain
• C. To express feeling
• D. To inform

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The author's primary intent in the passage is to inform the reader about historical events related to the succession of monarchs in England and Scotland. The passage presents factual information about the reigns of King James I, King Charles I, King Charles II, King James II, and the attempted recapture of the throne by Bonnie Prince Charlie. It details how religious differences and political conflicts shaped the history of England and Scotland. The other choices are incorrect because the author's focus is on providing historical facts rather than persuading, entertaining, or expressing personal feelings.

5. What is the definition of the word 'haunt' in the following passage? 'From that time forward, Mr. Utterson began to haunt the door in the by street of shops.'

• A. To levitate
• B. To constantly visit
• C. To terrorize
• D. To daunt

Correct answer: B

Rationale: 'Haunt' in this context means to visit a place frequently or persistently, which aligns with Mr. Utterson's actions of regularly going to the door in the by street of shops. The other choices are incorrect because 'levitate' means to rise or float in the air, 'terrorize' means to cause extreme fear, and 'daunt' means to make someone feel intimidated or apprehensive, none of which accurately reflect the meaning of 'haunt' in this context.
