Questions and Answers

1.

If Freda needs the most recent information about NASA space launches, it would be best for her to check
- A.
  
  A magazine article about NASA
- B.
  
  A book about space macines.
- C.
  
  A DVD about space trips.
- D.
  
  NASA's Web site.
Correct Answer
D. NASA's Web site.

Explanation
NASA's website is the most reliable and up-to-date source of information about NASA space launches. Magazine articles and books may not have the most recent information, and a DVD would not provide real-time updates. Therefore, checking NASA's website would be the best option for Freda to get the most recent information about NASA space launches.

Which Web site would provide the most useful information about duck hunting in Arkansas?

- D.
  
  Arkansasducksandgeese.com

The other websites may provide information about hunting in general or hunting in the South, but they may not have as much specific information about duck hunting in Arkansas.

Which method would be least useful in preparing to write a report from several pages of research material?
- A.
  
  Copying the material
- B.
  
  Outlining the material
- C.
  
  Paraphrazing the material
- D.
  
  Summarizing the material
Correct Answer
A. Copying the material

Explanation
Copying the material would be the least useful method in preparing to write a report from several pages of research material. Copying the material verbatim does not involve any critical thinking or analysis, and it does not help in organizing the information or understanding the key points. It is simply a duplication of the existing content without any added value. Outlining, paraphrasing, and summarizing the material, on the other hand, involve actively engaging with the information, extracting the main ideas, and rephrasing them in a concise and coherent manner, which are essential steps in the report writing process.

Which is the best place to find a definition for a word?
- A.
  
  An encyclopedia
- B.
  
  A dictionary
- C.
  
  A thesaurus
- D.
  
  An outline
Correct Answer
B. A dictionary

Explanation
A dictionary is the best place to find a definition for a word because it is specifically designed to provide definitions for words. It contains a comprehensive list of words in a particular language and provides their meanings, pronunciations, and sometimes their origins and usage examples. Unlike an encyclopedia, which provides general information on various topics, a dictionary focuses solely on words and their definitions. A thesaurus, on the other hand, provides synonyms and antonyms for words, while an outline is a structural framework for organizing information. Therefore, a dictionary is the most suitable source for finding word definitions.
