Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Failed to generate a rationale after 5 retries.
Question 2 of 5
Jorgen is doing a project on the ancient Greek mathematician and poet Eratosthenes. In his initial review, Jorgen learns that Eratosthenes is considered the first person to calculate the circumference of the earth, and that he is considered the first to describe geography as it is studied today. To which section of the library should Jorgen go to find one of the early maps created by Eratosthenes?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D (900). Eratosthenes was a renowned geographer and his early maps would fall under the Dewey Decimal Classification System's 900s, which cover history and geography. This section encompasses various topics related to the earth, including maps and cartography. Choices A (100), B (300), and C (600) correspond to different library sections unrelated to geography or history, making them incorrect for locating maps by Eratosthenes.
Question 3 of 5
Which option best exemplifies an author's use of alliteration and personification?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B because it exemplifies both alliteration and personification. Alliteration is present with the repetition of "shuddered," "swayed," "shook," and "screamed." Personification is demonstrated by attributing human-like qualities to the object "it" that is described as being able to shudder, sway, shake, and scream. The other choices do not exhibit both literary devices as clearly as option B. Choice A primarily focuses on simile and does not include personification. Choice C uses metaphor rather than personification. Choice D includes personification with the mention of a "siren call," but it lacks the alliterative elements present in option B.
Question 4 of 5
Which of the answer choices gives the best definition of the underlined word in the following sentence? 'Finlay flatly refused to take part in the piano recital, so his parents had to cajole him with the promise of a trip to his favorite toy store.'
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Coax. In the sentence, "cajole" means to persuade someone to do something by coaxing or flattery. The word "refused" indicates Finlay did not agree initially, but his parents convinced him with a promise. The other choices do not accurately capture the meaning of "cajole" in this context. A: Prevent means to stop something from happening, B: Threaten means to intimidate, and C: Insist means to demand or assert strongly. Only choice D, Coax, aligns with the idea of persuading or sweet-talking someone into doing something.
Question 5 of 5
Which of the following most logically completes the passage?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A because it logically completes the passage by implying that a war between world powers was extremely likely, providing a plausible explanation for the context given. This choice fits the overall tone and context of the passage. Option B is incorrect as it presents an extreme and absolute statement that does not align with the uncertainty expressed in the passage. Option C is incorrect as it specifies only a few countries and does not address the broader context of the passage that suggests involvement of multiple world powers. Option D is incorrect as it focuses solely on Austria, neglecting the involvement of other world powers as suggested in the passage.
