1. Which of the following law firms would provide the necessary experience to pursue her claim and ensure the lowest overall cost?

• 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.

2. Assuming this statement is true, which of the answer choices is a logical conclusion?

• A. Whole language is more effective at teaching people to read than phonics.
• B. Phonics is more effective at teaching people to read than whole language.
• C. Literacy rates will probably continue to decline over the next 15 years.
• D. The definition of what it means to be literate is much stricter now.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: If we consider the information provided in the extract that literacy rates were higher when phonics was predominantly used and have declined since whole language programs became more popular, it logically follows that phonics is more effective at teaching people to read than whole language. Choice A is incorrect as the extract suggests the opposite. Choice C cannot be concluded based on the information provided; it is an assumption beyond the scope of the data. Choice D is also unrelated to the information given and does not logically follow from the provided statement.

• B. Consult an American history textbook.
• C. Find websites about Japanese culture such as fashion and politics.
• D. Locate texts in the library related to World War II in America and look for references to internment camps in the index.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The best advice for the student would be to locate texts in the library related to World War II in America and look for references to internment camps. This choice is the most appropriate as it focuses on accessing specific and credible sources directly related to the research topic. Choices A and C are too broad and may not provide in-depth information on the internment camps. Choice B, while related to American history, may not offer the specific details needed for the research assignment on Japanese-American internment camps during World War II.

5. Based upon the contextual evidence provided in the passage above, what is the meaning of the term 'enterprise' in the third paragraph?

• A. Company
• B. Courage
• C. Game
• D. Cause

Rationale: 'Enterprise' here refers to a company or organization, particularly one that requires effort and initiative. In the passage, the term 'enterprise' is used in the context of establishing a Mechanic's Institution, emphasizing the involvement and support of the working man in such an organization. Choice B, 'Courage,' is incorrect as the term refers more to determination and initiative in creating and supporting the institution rather than bravery. Choice C, 'Game,' and choice D, 'Cause,' are also incorrect as they do not align with the context provided in the passage.
