• A. A working man is someone who is well versed in the workings of the soul.

• C. A working man is someone who earns wages in a traditional sense, often associated with the middle class.
• D. The working man historically transitions from the field to the factory and now to the screen.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: According to the extract, the term 'working man' refers to individuals who are actively employed and earn wages in a traditional sense. Charles Dickens emphasizes the importance of the working man having a share in the management of institutions designed for their benefit. This aligns with choice C, making it the correct answer. Choice A is incorrect as the extract does not mention anything about being well versed in the workings of the soul. Choice B is incorrect because the extract does not suggest that working men are not involved in social activities due to the physical demands of their work. Choice D is also incorrect as the extract does not focus on the historical transitions of the working man.

• A. Smith and Jones
• B. Martin and Sons
• C. Williams Attorneys
• D. Thorn and Thomas

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A, Smith and Jones. In the provided extract, it mentions that Shia wanted to pursue a claim, and in the text, Smith and Jones specialize in worker's compensation legal issues. Furthermore, they offer a no-fee-unless-you-win service, ensuring the lowest cost for the employee. Choice B, Martin and Sons, Choice C, Williams Attorneys, and Choice D, Thorn and Thomas, are incorrect as they are not mentioned in the extract and do not offer the specific services required for the worker's compensation claim.

3. How does Wilde portray the institution of marriage in The Importance of Being Earnest?

• A. As a romantic union between two individuals.
• B. As a social contract designed for economic and social gain.
• C. As a trivial and superficial agreement.
• D. As a necessary evil in a structured society.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In The Importance of Being Earnest, Wilde portrays marriage as a social contract rather than a romantic union. The play satirizes the transactional nature of marriage in the society Wilde critiques. Characters like Lady Bracknell's interrogation of Jack highlight how marriage is viewed as a means for economic and social gain rather than genuine affection, emphasizing the societal norms of the time. Choice A is incorrect because Wilde's portrayal goes beyond a simple romantic view of marriage. Choice C is incorrect as it oversimplifies Wilde's critique of marriage and societal norms. Choice D is incorrect as it doesn't capture the nuanced satire Wilde employs in dissecting the institution of marriage.

4. What is a likely purpose for including so many headlines at the start of the article?

• A. to quickly convey the most important information about a significant event
• B. to sensationalize a front-page news story
• C. to incite panic in readers
• D. to fill empty space on the page

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Including multiple headlines at the start of an article allows for the quick conveyance of the most important information about a significant event. In the case of the article about the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, the headlines serve as brief summaries of key details, such as the event itself, the perpetrator, the status of the President, and related incidents like the attempted assassination of Secretary Seward. These headlines help readers grasp the main points efficiently without having to read through the entire article. The purpose is to summarize the key details and attract readers' attention to engage them in the content. Choice B is incorrect because the purpose is not to sensationalize the story but to inform. Choice C is incorrect as the intention is not to incite panic but to provide essential information. Choice D is incorrect because the headlines serve a meaningful purpose and are not included just to fill empty space on the page.

5. To which section of the library should Jorgen go to locate these works?

• A. 100
• B. 200
• C. 700
• D. 800

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Jorgen should go to Section 800 to locate The Iliad and The Odyssey by Homer. These works are literary masterpieces and would be categorized under literature in the library. While sections 100, 200, and 700 cover Philosophy and psychology, Religion, and Arts and recreation respectively, they are not the most suitable sections for finding works of literature like The Iliad and The Odyssey.
