1. Which of the following bones is not associated with the leg?

• A. femur
• B. tibia
• C. patella
• D. radius

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D, radius. According to the passage, the radius is a bone in the lower arm, not in the leg. The femur, tibia, and patella are bones associated with the leg. The femur is the thigh bone, the tibia is the shin bone, and the patella is the kneecap. Therefore, the radius is the only bone among the options that is not associated with the leg.

2. Raoul has an upcoming school project, and his own computer is not working. He needs to use the library computer, and he has estimated that he will need to be on the computer for approximately an hour and a half. How much of a fee can Raoul expect to pay for his computer use at the library?

• A. $6
• B. $9
• C. $12
• D. $15

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Raoul needs to use the computer for 90 minutes. The first 30 minutes are free, so he would pay for the remaining 60 minutes, which is 4 intervals of 15 minutes each. Each 15-minute period incurs a $3 charge, so for 60 minutes, Raoul would pay 4 x $3 = $12. Therefore, Raoul can expect to pay $12 for his computer use at the library. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct calculation based on the provided information.

3. According to the passage, what health issue can result from alcohol abuse?

• A. poor magnesium absorption.
• B. an impairment of kidney function.
• C. compromise of the immune system.
• D. gastrointestinal disorders.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C, compromise of the immune system. The passage states that alcohol abuse can weaken the immune system, making individuals more susceptible to infections and illnesses. This compromise of the immune system can lead to various health issues and exacerbate existing conditions. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect based on the passage. While the passage discusses the impact of alcohol abuse on magnesium absorption and kidney function, it does not directly attribute these issues to alcohol abuse. Gastrointestinal disorders are mentioned in relation to magnesium absorption but are not specifically linked to alcohol abuse.

4. Which of the following best describes the way the passages are structured?

• A. Both passages open by defining a legal concept and then continue to describe situations in order to further explain the concept.
• B. Both passages begin with situations, introduce accepted definitions, and then cite legal ramifications.
• C. The first passage presents a long definition while the second passage begins by showing an example of assault.
• D. Both cite specific legal doctrines, then proceed to explain the rulings.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The passages are structured in a way where both begin by defining a legal concept (assault and battery) and then provide further explanations and examples to help clarify and elaborate on the concepts. Both passages open with a clear definition and then proceed to discuss the concept in various situations. Choice A is correct because it accurately captures the structure of the passages. Choice B is incorrect because the passages do not introduce accepted definitions after presenting situations; they define the legal concepts first. Choice C is incorrect because the first passage does not present a long definition, it begins by defining lethal force and then provides examples. Choice D is incorrect because while the passages explain legal concepts, they do not specifically cite legal doctrines or explain rulings.

5. Given this new information, which cinema is the best option for Thomas and his sister?

• A. Twin Theatres
• B. Reveler Cinema
• C. Big Screen 14
• D. Best Seat in The House

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The best cinema option for Thomas and his sister after the unexpected rearrangement of their schedules is Best Seat in The House. This is because the only showing available after 10:30 p.m. is at 11:25 p.m. at Best Seat in The House. None of the other cinemas have showings available after 10:30 p.m., making Best Seat in The House the optimal choice for them to catch the film. Twin Theatres, Reveler Cinema, and Big Screen 14 do not have showings after 10:30 p.m., so they are not suitable options for Thomas and his sister given their schedule constraints.
