1. 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.

2. What does Lady Bracknell's interrogation of Jack reveal about the nature of marriage in the society Wilde is critiquing?

• A. It shows that marriage is based on love and personal choice.
• B. It reveals that marriage is a serious, thoughtful decision.
• C. It illustrates that marriage is more about social standing and wealth than love.
• D. It suggests that marriage is an outdated institution.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Lady Bracknell's interrogation of Jack regarding his suitability as a husband for her daughter Gwendolen reveals that marriage in the society depicted in the play is more about wealth and social status than love. This is evident as Lady Bracknell places great emphasis on Jack's financial background, social connections, and suitability as a match based on these criteria. Choice A is incorrect because Lady Bracknell's focus is not on love or personal choice but on societal expectations and status. Choice B is incorrect as the interrogation highlights superficial considerations rather than portraying marriage as a serious, thoughtful decision. Choice D is also incorrect as the play does not suggest that marriage is outdated, but rather emphasizes its transactional and societal nature in the context of the aristocratic society being critiqued.

3. How much will Raoul expect to pay for his computer use at the library?

• A. $9
• B. $6
• C. $12
• D. $15

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Raoul estimates that he will need to use the library computer for approximately an hour and a half. Since each 15-minute period beyond the initial 30 minutes incurs a $3 charge, for a total of three additional 15-minute periods, Raoul will need to pay $9 ($3 x 3 = $9). Therefore, Raoul can expect to pay $9 for his computer use at the library. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not align with the information provided in the extract.

4. Which of the following best describes the purpose of the passage?

• A. to inform Mr. Morgan that he will likely not receive an offer for the job of Lead Technician due to the high number of applicants
• B. to express gratitude to Mr. Morgan for applying for the position of Lead Technician
• C. to offer Mr. Morgan the position of Lead Technician
• D. to notify Mr. Morgan that the review of candidates will take longer than expected

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The purpose of the passage is to inform Mr. Morgan that he will likely not receive an offer for the job of Lead Technician due to the high number of applicants. The passage mentions the high volume of applications and the competitive nature of the selection process, indicating that Mr. Morgan may not be successful. Choice B is incorrect because the passage does not express gratitude to Mr. Morgan but rather informs him of the situation. Choice C is incorrect as there is no offer made in the passage. Choice D is incorrect as the passage does not specifically state that the review will take longer than expected, but rather that it will take longer than previously stated.

5. Which of the following menu items fulfills her dietary requirements?

• A. Tofu-mushroom-spinach lasagna
• B. Veggie burger on a whole-grain bun
• C. Salmon with cream sauce
• D. Stuffed baked potato with vegetable soup

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A, the tofu-mushroom-spinach lasagna. Mirella is an ovo-lacto vegetarian, meaning she eats eggs and dairy but avoids animal flesh. This dish meets her dietary requirements as it is a vegetarian option that contains tofu and cheese for protein. Additionally, since Mirella has a wheat allergy, she can choose a lasagna recipe with alternative noodles or omit noodles altogether. Choice B, the veggie burger, may contain wheat in the bun, which is not suitable for Mirella. Choice C, salmon with cream sauce, contains animal flesh and is not vegetarian. Choice D, stuffed baked potato with vegetable soup, may include wheat products in the soup, making it unsuitable for Mirella's wheat allergy.
