1. How does the author organize the passage?

• A. heading and subheadings
• B. superscripts
• C. diagrams
• D. labels and footnotes

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The author uses heading and subheadings to organize the passage. Each subheading focuses on either dairy (e.g., beverages, meals, snacks, dessert) or non-dairy options for obtaining more calcium from food. This organizational structure makes it easier for readers to identify and understand the different categories of tips provided within the text. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because superscripts, diagrams, labels, and footnotes are not used as organizational features in the passage; instead, headings and subheadings play a key role in structuring the information.

2. In the table above, how many Heather Gray T-shirts were ordered in a size small in the month of January?

• A. One
• B. Two
• C. Three
• D. Four

Correct answer: A

Rationale: According to the table, one Heather Gray T-shirt in size small was ordered in January. The other choices are incorrect as they do not align with the information provided in the table, which clearly states that only one T-shirt of that description was ordered.

3. Which event is out of sequence in the story?

• A. Installing the dog run in the backyard.
• B. Enrolling the dog in obedience classes.
• C. The physical exam confirming the dog's health.
• D. The dog's next obedience class.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because the story describes the sequence of events after adopting the dog. After bringing Robin home, the sequence includes confirming her health with a physical exam, buying supplies, installing a dog run, and then taking her to the vet. Enrolling her in obedience classes is mentioned to start the following week, making it the next logical step. Therefore, the detail about the dog's next obedience class is not out of sequence. Choices A, B, and C are all in the correct sequence according to the events described in the story.

4. What is the best definition of the underlined word in the selection below, taken from the third paragraph of the passage? 'You should try to be aware of your consumption of water and energy.'

• A. Using the greatest amount
• B. Illness of the lungs
• C. Using the least amount
• D. Depletion of goods

Correct answer: D

Rationale: In this context, 'consumption' refers to the use or depletion of resources like water and energy. It is not about using the greatest amount (choice A) or the least amount (choice C) but about being mindful of how much you use to avoid depletion. 'Illness of the lungs' (choice B) is completely unrelated to the context of resource conservation discussed in the passage.

5. When should you redirect your dog's biting behavior?

• A. When your dog bites something inappropriate
• B. When your dog barks at strangers
• C. When your dog is lying down
• D. When your dog is eating

Correct answer: A

Rationale: You should redirect your dog's biting behavior when it bites something inappropriate. This can include redirecting its attention to an appropriate chew toy and using biting deterrent spray. The extract suggests that redirecting biting behavior is necessary when your dog bites something it shouldn't.
