  • Q #3: Mahatma Ghandi was an inspirational leader who made a lot of sacrifices for the people of India. In 1921, Gandhi took charge of the Indian National Congress, a group of thirteen men in the Indian government who fought discrimination and unfair taxation against farmers and urban laborers. Using the nonviolent tactic of civil disobedience, Gandhi and his followers bravely resisted British control over Indian life, choosing not to follow unfair, discriminatory laws and policies. The British were not happy to see Ghandi and his followers rebelling in this way. The British responded to this resistance by strengthening their military presence in India, often at the cost of human lives. While Ghandi was fighting to gain more freedom for the people of India, the British government was, often violently, suppressing it. For his effort, Gandhi was eventually imprisoned in 1942 for his "radical" beliefs, but he refused to recognize violence as a means of fighting the British. He gained international attention for his hunger strikes, refusing to eat until the British changed their unjust policies.   Which of the following words from the passage BEST displays the author's opinion towards the British rulers that Gandhi was rebelling against?

    A. "bravely"

    B. "refusing"

    C. "taxation"

  • Q #4: Many teachers across the country are noticing the importance of film in the modern classroom. No longer is putting a movie on meant as an invitation for students to check out while the teacher does work at their desk. Films are a versatile medium, and can function as textbooks, pieces of literature, or pieces of art that can bring a new dimension to a student's learning. The teachers leading this charge know that teaching a film effectively means preparing lessons with the same amount of time and effort as any other days. A teacher could simply shut the lights and throw on the first 20 minutes of Steven Spielberg's "Saving Private Ryan" because the class is studying World War II. Or, the teacher could spend a class period analyzing the scene with the class, looking at how Spielberg builds anxiety and tension, how he creates the chaos of the beach, and how he gets the audience to care for characters they haven't even met yet.   Which of the following sentences would be a supporting detail to explain how "Saving Private Ryan" could be used in the classroom?

    A. learning to analyze a film in this way can not only help students get more out of their viewing, but it can also help them work on their critical thinking skills

    B. just putting "Saving Private Ryan" on the screen and then getting work done in the back of the room is not a helpful way to use a film in class

    C. too many teachers are stuck in their ways, though, and unwilling to adapt.

    D. "Jaws" would also be a good movie that a teacher could use in the classroom

    Answer Explanation

    Learning to analyze a film in this way can not only help students get more out of their viewing, but it can also help them work on their critical thinking skills

The nurse alarmed Mr. Frederick Seward, who was in an adjoining room, and hastened to the door of his father's room, when he met the assassin, who inflicted upon him one or more dangerous wounds.
