1. In the words of Thomas De Quincey, "It is notorious that the memory strengthens as you lay
burdens upon it." If, like most people, you have trouble recalling the names of those you have
just met, try this: The next time you are introduced, plan to remember the names. Say to
yourself, "I'll listen carefully; I'll repeat each person's name to be sure I've got it, and I will
remember." You'll discover how effective this technique is and probably recall those names for
the rest of your life.
The quotation from De Quincey indicates that the memory
A. always operates at peak efficiency
B. breaks down under great strain
C. improves if it is used often
D. becomes unreliable if it tires

2. Unemployment was the overriding fact of life when Franklin D. Roosevelt became president
of the United States on March 4, 1933. At the time, the government did not systematically
collect statistics of joblessness; actually it did not start doing so until 1940. The Bureau of Labor
Statistics later estimated that 12,830,000 persons were out of work in 1933, about one-fourth of
a civilian labor force of more than 51 million. Roosevelt signed the Federal Emergency Relief Act

,on May 12, 1933. The president selected Harry L. Hopkins, who headed the New York relief
program, to run FERA. A gifted administrator, Hopkins quickly put the program into high gear. He
gathered a small staff in Washington and brought the state relief organizations into the FERA
system. While the agency tried to provide all the necessities, food came first. City dwellers
usually got an allowance for fuel, and rent for one month was provided in cas

3. With varying success, many women around the world today struggle for equal rights.
Historically, women have achieved greater equality with men during periods of social adversity.
The following factors initiated the greatest number of improvements for women: violent
revolution, world war, and the rigors of pioneering in an undeveloped land. In all three cases,
the essential element that improved the status
of women was a shortage of men, which required women to perform many of society's vital
tasks.
We can conclude from the information in this passage that
A. women today are highly successful in winning equal rights
B. only pioneer women have been considered equal to men
C. historically, women have only achieved equality
through force
D. historically, the principle of equality alone has not been enough to secure women equal
rights

4. All water molecules form six-sided structures as they freeze and become snow crystals. The
shape of a snow crystal is determined by temperature, vapor, and wind conditions in the upper
atmosphere. A snow crystal is always symmetrical because these conditions affect all six of its
sides simultaneously.
The purpose of the passage is to present
A. a personal observation
B. a solution to a problem

D. opposing scientific theories

the rest of your life.
The passage suggests that people remember names best
when they
A. meet new people
B. are intelligent
C. decide to do so
D. are interested in people

6. Many people have owned, or have heard of, traditional "piggy banks," coin banks shaped like
pigs. A logical theory about how this tradition started might be that because pigs often
symbolize greed, the object is to "fatten" one's piggy bank with as much money as possible.
However, while this idea makes sense, it is not the correct origin of the term. The genesis of the
piggy bank is the old English word "pygg," which was a common kind of clay hundreds of years
ago in England. People used pots and jars made out of this red "pygg" clay for many different
purposes in their homes. Sometimes they kept their money in one of
the pots, and this was known as a pygg bank. Over the years, because "pygg" and "pig" sounded
the same, glaziers began making novelty banks out of pottery in the shape of a pig as a kind of
joke. These banks were given as gifts and exported to countries where people spoke other
languages and where no

, 7. The wheel is considered one of the most important mechanical inventions of all time. Many
technologies since the invention of the wheel have been based on its principles, since the
industrial revolution, the wheel has been a basic element of nearly every machine constructed
by humankind. No one knows the exact time and place of the invention of the wheel, but its
beginnings can be seen across many ancient civilizations.
The passage suggests that the wheel is an important
invention because it
A. is one of the world's oldest inventions
B. forms the basis of so many later inventions
C. can be traced to many ancient cultures
D. is one the world's most famous inventions

8. Samuel Morse, best known today as the inventor of Morse Code and one of the inventors of
the telegraph, was originally a prominent painter. While he was always interested in technology
and studied electrical engineering in college, Morse went to Paris to learn from famous artists of
his day and later painted many pictures that now hang in museums, including a portrait of
former President John Adams. In 1825, Morse was in Washington, D.C., painting a portrait of the
Marquis de Lafayette when a messenger arrived on horseback to tell him that his wife was
gravely ill back at his home in Connecticut. The message had taken several days to reach him
because of the distance. Morse rushed to his home as fast as he could, but his wife had already
passed away by the time he arrived. Grief-stricken, he gave up painting and devoted the rest of
his life to finding ways to transmit messages over long distances faster.

9. Leonardo da Vinci is not only one of the most famous artists in history, but he was also a
botanist, a writer, and an inventor. Even though most of his inventions were not actually built in
his lifetime, many of today's modern machines can be traced back to some of his original
designs. The parachute, the military tank, the bicycle, and even the airplane were foretold in the
