1. What is a solution to insomnia?

• A. Developing good sleep habits and using herbs and spices.
• B. Avoiding physical activity.
• C. Staying awake for longer periods.
• D. Eating large meals before bed.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Developing good sleep habits and using herbs and spices. The passage highlights that sleep hygiene, which involves developing good sleep habits and non-pharmacological therapies like herbs and spices, are solutions to insomnia. These methods aim to promote better sleep quality. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect. Avoiding physical activity, staying awake for longer periods, and eating large meals before bed can actually worsen insomnia symptoms and disrupt sleep patterns.

2. Which statement is not a detail from the passage?

• A. Condensation fails to happen when water vapor cools and changes back into droplets of liquid
• B. Evaporation happens when water changes into gas
• C. The water cycle does not involve precipitation
• D. Water evaporates from oceans and rivers

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Choice C, 'The water cycle does not involve precipitation,' is not a detail from the passage. The passage clearly states that precipitation, such as rain, snow, sleet, or hail, is a crucial part of the water cycle. On the other hand, choices A, B, and D are all supported by the passage. Condensation occurs when water vapor cools, evaporation occurs when water changes into gas, and water evaporates from oceans and rivers are all mentioned in the text.

3. What would be the best title for this passage?

• A. Being a Team in PE
• B. A New Kind of Grade
• C. Learning Martial Arts
• D. PE for School and Life

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The best title for this passage is 'PE for School and Life' as it encapsulates the broader purpose of physical education described in the extract. The passage emphasizes teaching students lifelong fitness habits, instilling lessons about maintaining good health, staying fit, and introducing exercise that can be incorporated into their lives. The focus is on fitness as a lifelong skill rather than just a short-term activity for a good grade. Choice A, 'Being a Team in PE,' is incorrect as the passage highlights individual exercise and movement rather than team-based activities. Choice B, 'A New Kind of Grade,' is also incorrect as the passage mentions a shift in grading towards effort rather than specific performance tasks. Choice C, 'Learning Martial Arts,' is too narrow as the passage discusses a variety of activities beyond martial arts that are taught in modern PE classes.

5. What is the meaning of the word onset as used in the first paragraph?

• A. Cure rate
