1. What is the meaning of testament as used in the sentence provided?

• A. story
• B. surprise
• C. artifact
• D. evidence

Correct answer: D

Rationale: In the context provided, the word 'testament' most likely refers to evidence. A testament can be something that serves as proof or confirmation of a fact or situation. In this case, it is used in a non-religious sense to indicate evidence or proof. The other choices are incorrect as 'story' does not fit the context, 'surprise' is not related to the owners' skills mentioned, and 'artifact' does not align with the discussion of the restaurant's success.

2. Which of the following conclusions can be drawn from the passage?

• A. Plastic pollution poses a significant environmental threat due to its lasting nature and difficulty in recycling.
• B. Plastic is an outdated material with no advantages.
• C. Recycling plastic significantly reduces environmental pollution.
• D. Plastic pollution has no impact on marine life.

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct conclusion that can be drawn from the passage is that plastic pollution poses a significant environmental threat due to its lasting nature and difficulty in recycling. The passage highlights the challenges of recycling plastic due to its low quality when recycled, leading to pollution and environmental hazards. It mentions the presence of a large island of plastic in the Pacific Ocean, showing the severe impact of plastic pollution on the environment. Therefore, choice A is the most accurate conclusion. Choice B is incorrect as the passage mentions that plastic has many advantages despite its recycling challenges. Choice C is incorrect as the passage indicates that recycling plastic is difficult due to its low quality when recycled. Choice D is incorrect as the passage clearly states that plastic consumption by marine life like fish and birds is a reality, showing the impact of plastic pollution on marine ecosystems.

3. Based on the context, which of the following is the meaning of the word move in the passage?

• A. drive
• B. sell
• C. advance forward
• D. change location

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In the context provided, the word 'move' is used to indicate that the vehicles are 'marked to move quickly,' which implies that they are intended to be sold rapidly. Therefore, the correct meaning of 'move' in this context is 'sell.' Options A, C, and D do not accurately capture the intention of the word as it is used in the passage. While 'advance forward' (Option C) might seem plausible, the context of a sales event and the urgency to buy due to low prices indicate that 'sell' is the most fitting interpretation.

4. Which choice correctly matches these samples with incompletely met criteria?

• A. Sample 1's evidence is not sufficient; sample 2's evidence is not relevant; sample 3's evidence is not factual.
• B. Sample 1's evidence is not factual; sample 2's evidence is not sufficient; sample 3's evidence is not relevant.
• C. Sample 1's evidence is not relevant; sample 2's evidence is not factual; sample 3's evidence is not sufficient.
• D. The evidence of samples 1 and 3 is insufficient; sample 2's evidence is factual but irrelevant.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Choice C correctly matches the samples with incompletely met criteria. It states that sample 1's evidence is not relevant, sample 2's evidence is not factual, and sample 3's evidence is not sufficient. This aligns with the criteria mentioned, indicating a lack of relevance, factual accuracy, and sufficiency in each sample, respectively. Choices A, B, and D do not accurately match the samples with the given criteria, making them incorrect. In choice A, while sample 1's evidence is not sufficient, sample 2's evidence is not relevant, and sample 3's evidence is not factual, the order in which these aspects are mentioned is not aligned with the criteria provided. Choice B has the correct order but mismatches the criteria with the samples. Choice D incorrectly assesses the evidence of the samples, focusing on sufficiency and relevance but not aligning with the specified criteria for each sample.

5. Which of the following is an opinion, rather than a historical fact, expressed by the author?

• A. Leif Erikson was definitely the son of Erik the Red.
• B. Leif Erikson's crew called the land Vinland.
• C. Leif Erikson deserves more credit for his accomplishments.
• D. Leif Erikson explored the Americas nearly five hundred years before Columbus.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The statement 'Leif Erikson deserves more credit for his accomplishments' is an opinion rather than a historical fact. Historical facts can be verified through evidence and documentation, while opinions are subjective viewpoints. Choices A, B, and D provide historical facts about Leif Erikson's lineage, the name given to the land he discovered, and his exploration, respectively, which can be supported by historical records and research.
