(A) To contrast travel by steamship and stagecoach (B) To criticize the level of public debt in nineteenth - century Canada (C) To describe the introduction of steamships in Canada (D) To show how Canada surpassed the United States in transportation improvements The word "reliable" in line is closest in meaning to which of the following (A) Quick (B) Safe (C) Dependable (D) Luxurious According to the passage, when was the Welland Canal opened?

(A) The teaching of astronomy in state universities (B) Stars on American coins (C) Colonial stamps and coins (D) The star as national symbol of the United States The word "their" in line refers to (A) stars (B) features (C) coins (D) colonies The expression “Curiously enough” is used in line because the author finds it strange that (A) silver coins with fifteen stars appeared before coins with thirteen (B) Vermont and Kentucky joined the Union in 1794 (C) no silver coins were issue until 1794 (D) Tennessee was the first state to use half dimes Which of the following is NOT mentioned as the denomination of an American coin?

(A) There were twelve states at the time (B) There was a change in design policy (C) Tennessee had left the Union (D) The mint made a mistake Passage Grandma Moses is among the most celebrated twentieth - century painters of the United States, yet she had barely started painting before she was in her late seventies As she once said of herself: "I would never sit back in a rocking chair, waiting for someone to help me.' No one could have had a more productive old age She was born Anna Mary Robertson on a farm in New York State, one of five boys and five girls ("we came in bunches, like radishes.") At twelve she left home and was in domestic service until at twenty-seven, she married Thomas Moses, the hired hand of one of her employers They farmed most of their lives, first in Virginia and then in New York State, at Eagle Bridge She had ten children, of whom five survived: her husband died in 1927 Grandma Moses painted a little as a child and made embroidery pictures as a hobby, but only switched to oils in old age because her hands had become too stiff to sew and she wanted to keep busy and pass the time Her pictures were first sold at the local drugstore and at a fair, and were soon spotted by a dealer who bought everything she painted Three of the pictures were exhibited in the Museum of Modern Art, and in 1940 she had her first exhibition in New York Between the 1930s and her death she produced some 2,000 pictures: detailed and lively portrayals of the rural life she had known for so long, with a marvelous sense of color and form “I think real hard till think of something real pretty, and then I paint it,” she said Which of the following would be the best title for the passage (A) Grandma Moses: A Biographical Sketch (B) The Children of Grandma Moses (C) Grandma Moses: Her Best Exhibition (D) Grandma Moses and Other Older Artists According to the passage, Grandma Moses began to paint because she wanted to (A) decorate her home (B) keep active (C) improve her salary (D) gain an international reputation From Grandma Moses' description of herself in the first paragraph, it can be inferred that she was (A) independent (B) pretty (C) wealthy (D) timid (C) embroidering (D) farming Grandma Moses spent most of her life (A) nursing (B) painting In line 12, the word "spotted" could best be replaced by (A) taken (B) featured (C) noticed (D) damaged Passage What makes it rain? Rain falls from clouds for the same reason anything falls to Earth The Earth's gravity pulls it But every cloud is made of water droplets or ice crystals Why doesn't rain or snow fall constantly from all clouds? The droplets or ice crystals in clouds are exceedingly small The effect of gravity on them is minute Air currents move and lift droplets so that the net downward displacement is zero, even though the droplets are in constant motion Droplets and ice crystals behave somewhat like dust in the air made visible in a shaft of sunlight To the casual observer, dust seems to act in a totally random fashion, moving about chaotically without fixed direction But in fact dust particles are much larger than water droplets and they finally fall The cloud droplet of average size is only 1/2500 inch in diameter It is so small that it would take sixteen hours to fall half a mile in perfectly still air, and it does not fall out of moving air at alt Only when the droplet grows to a diameter of 1/125 inch or larger can it fall from the cloud The average raindrop contains a million times as much water as a tiny cloud droplet The growth of a cloud droplet to a size large enough to fall out is the cause of rain and other forms of precipitation This important growth process is called "coalescence." What is the main topic of the passage? (A) The mechanics of rain (B) The climate of North America (C) How gravity affects agriculture (D) Types of clouds ... ride A There will only be one entrance to the park after 11 am today B This entrance cannot be used before 11 am today C The park opens at 11 am today A The ride starts when all the seats are full... noiseless D noisily 10 He speaks English very well …… he’s only 12 A whereas B despite C in spite of D although C in D in the C reasonably D reasoning 11 When you go …… bed?
