In privatization, the government relies on the private sector to provide a service. However, the government divests itself of the entire process, including all assets.

Also, the govern- ment may not be the only customer. Whoever the government chooses to pro- vide the services would likely provide the same services to others. This paragraph best supports the state- ment that: (A) The government must closely super- vise privatized functions. (B) Privatized functions consist of a mix- ture of government employees, military personnel, and private contractors. (C) Privatized functions are those institu- tions that provide services only to a government agency. (D) Privatized functions provide essential services to the government. 5.

A good, thorough introduction helps establish the right climate. A good title to this paragraph would be: (A) Lead by Example (B) The Importance of Proper Introductions (C) Leading a Successful Conference (D) Conference Participation Basics 6.

To write or not to write — that is the ques- tion. If assigned a writing task, there’s no option. However, if someone is looking for a specific answer, find out if they need a short answer or a detailed one. Can the require- ment be met with a telephone call, e-mail, or short note, or is something more neces- sary? A former CEO of a major corporation once commented that he had looked at 13,000 pieces of paper in a 5-day period. Think how much easier and more economi- cal it would be if people would use the tele- phone, send an e-mail, or write a short note. The main point of this passage is: (A) Written records are important as they provide detailed documentation. (B) More business people should invest time and energy improving their writing skills. (C) Writing may not be the best way to communicate information. (D) It’s pointless for business people to spend time improving their writing skills. 8. The transistor, a small, solid-state device that can amplify sound, was invented in 1947. At first, it was too expensive and too difficult to produce to be used in cheap, mass-market products.

According to this passage: (A) There was no market for transistors before 1954. (B) When transistors could be produced cheaply and easily, the transistor radio was put on the market. (C) Transistors were invented in 1947 by order of the Department of Defense. (D) Transistors are still expensive to produce. 9. I returned from the City about three o’clock on that May afternoon pretty well disgusted with life. I had been three months in the Old Country and was fed up with it. If people had told me a year ago that I would’ve been feeling like that I should’ve laughed at them; but there was the fact. The weather made me liverish, the talk of the ordinary Englishman made me sick, I couldn’t get enough exercise, and the amusements of London seemed as flat as soda water that had been standing in the sun. The author is speaking of his travels in: (A) Spain (B) Great Britain (C) Germany (D) Scotland 10. Surveys show that the average child under the age of 18 watches four hours of televi- sion per day. Although some of the pro- gramming may be educational, most isn’t. Spending this much time watching televi- sion interferes with a child’s ability to pursue other interests, such as reading, participating in sports, and playing with friends. The author of this passage would agree that: (A) Television viewing should be restricted. (B) Parents who let their children watch this much television are neglectful. (C) Reading, participating in sports, play- ing with friends, and watching televi- sion should all be given equal time. (D) Adults over 18 can watch as much tele- vision as they want.

These mock interviews help students pre- pare for the types of questions they’ll be asked, make them more comfortable with common inter- view formats, and help them critique their per- formance before facing a real interviewer. Because they’re such a valuable aid, schools should organize mock job interviews for all of their graduating students. 11. The above passage states that mock job interviews: (A) frighten students (B) should be offered to the best students (C) help prepare students for real job interviews (D) should be organized by students 12.

(B) Mock interviews are expensive to organize. (C) Few students are interested in mock interviews. (D) Students don’t need job interview preparation. Due process, the guarantee of fairness in the admin- istration of justice, is part of the 5th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. The 14th Amendment further requires states to abide by due process. After this amendment was enacted, the U.S. Supreme Court struck down many state laws that infringed on the civil rights guaranteed to citizens in the Bill of Rights. 13. According to the above passage, due process: (A) is an outdated concept (B) guarantees fairness in the justice system (C) never became part of the U.S. Constitution (D) is the process by which winning lottery tickets are selected 14. According to the above passage, it’s reason- able to assume that the 5th Amendment: (A) is about taxes (B) guarantees due process in all criminal and civil cases (C) guarantees due process in federal law (D) should never have become part of the Bill of Rights 15. The author of the above passage would agree that: (A) Without the passage of the 14th Amendment, many laws restricting civil rights would still exist in various states. (B) The Supreme Court overstepped its jurisdiction when it struck down laws infringing on citizens’ civil rights. (C) The Supreme Court had every right to strike down state laws before the pas- sage of the 14th Amendment. (D) The 14th Amendment was opposed by all states. Questions 11 and 12 are based on the follow- ing passage. Questions 13 through 15 are based on the fol- lowing passage. STOP DO NOT TURN THE PAGE UNTIL TOLD TO DO SO.
