1. Why was Lamarr's invention not of interest to the US?

• A. Hollywood was known to have spies
• B. The navy preferred to use the work of military engineers
• C. The military was too preoccupied to consider new inventions
• D. They suspected her patent was invalid

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B. The US Navy preferred to utilize technology developed by military engineers rather than consider Lamarr's invention. Choice A is incorrect because Hollywood containing spies is not relevant to why the US was not interested in Lamarr's invention. Choice C is incorrect as there is no mention of the military being too preoccupied to consider new inventions in the provided context. Choice D is incorrect as there is no indication that the US suspected Lamarr's patent to be invalid; rather, the focus was on the navy's preference for technology developed by military engineers.

2. Julie Walker-Mayfield plans to register for fall classes at Chatham College. She works during the day and doesn't get off work until 5:30 PM. She also has no internet access at work and will have to register for classes once she gets home. Taking into account her personal schedule and the registration schedule provided by the college, when will she be able to go online to enter the registration system and select her classes?

• A. Monday, 10 AM-12 PM
• B. Monday, 5-7 PM
• C. Tuesday, 5-7 PM
• D. Tuesday, 8-10 PM

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Julie Walker-Mayfield doesn't get off work until 5:30 PM, so she won't be able to register for classes until she gets home. Considering she needs time to unwind after work and settle in, the earliest and most suitable time for her to enter the registration system and select her classes is Tuesday, 5-7 PM. Choice A is incorrect as it falls on Monday, and she gets off work at 5:30 PM. Choices B and D are also incorrect as she needs time to settle in after work before going online to register.

3. In which chapter should Clothilde look for more information?

• A. Chapter 7
• B. Chapter 9
• C. Chapter 10
• D. Chapter 12

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Clothilde should look for more information in Chapter 9, 'Herbs for Immunity,' as her sister's daughter has a chronic cough. Immune-boosting herbs may help strengthen the child's immune system and potentially alleviate the cough. Chapter 9 focuses on herbs that support immune health, making it the most relevant chapter for addressing a chronic cough related to immunity. Chapters 7, 10, and 12 do not specifically focus on immunity or respiratory conditions, making them less likely to provide the information Clothilde needs.

4. According to the passages, which situation would not constitute an illegal use of lethal force?

• A. A disgruntled cashier yells obscenities at a customer.
• B. A thief is seen running away with stolen cash.
• C. A man is attacked in an alley by another man with a knife.
• D. A woman punches another woman in a bar.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C because, according to the passage, lethal force may be legally used in self-defense or to protect others from imminent danger. In the situation where a man is attacked in an alley by another man with a knife, the use of lethal force to defend oneself would not constitute an illegal act. Choices A, B, and D do not involve a situation where the use of lethal force in self-defense would be justified, making them incorrect. A disgruntled cashier yelling obscenities, a thief running away with stolen cash, and a woman punching another woman do not present imminent danger that would justify the use of lethal force.

5. When students study character development, setting, and plot, what are they studying?

• A. Word analysis
• B. Points of view
• C. Literary analysis of fictional texts
• D. Fluency

Correct answer: C

Rationale: When students study character development, setting, and plot, they are engaging in the analysis of fictional texts. These elements are central to understanding the narrative and how various literary devices are used to convey meaning. Word analysis (choice A) focuses on the study of individual words, which is different from analyzing the broader aspects of a text like character development, setting, and plot. Points of view (choice B) refer to the perspective from which a story is told, which is not the same as studying character development, setting, and plot. Fluency (choice D) pertains to the ability to read with speed, accuracy, and expression, and is not directly related to the analysis of fictional texts.
