In 1943, the war in the Pacific raged on. First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt went to rally the troops' spirits, despite the disapproval of military command. Roosevelt planned a grueling itinerary. She visited several islands and hundreds of wounded in her first 6 days. The indefatigable First Lady inspected Navy hospitals, delivered a speech, attended receptions, and visited convalescing officers, all within 12 hours of her arrival. She lifted spirits among the wounded and morale among the troops. She continued her exhausting tour for a month, speaking to every patient in troop hospitals and taking down addresses to contact family members. Roosevelt traveled non-stop, risked her life, and greeted the last patient she saw with the same heartfelt sincerity as the first. Which of the following publications would have a different point of view of Eleanor Roosevelt compared to the author's point of view?

A. A historical Japanese military document outlining how to damage enemy morale

B. A personal memoir from an injured naval officer who fought in the Pacific theater

C. A newspaper clipping from The Honolulu Star-Bulletin in 1944

D. A brochure about women's contributions to the US. war effort

Therefore, the Correct Answer is A.

Q #3: On February 2 of each year, the United States observes the unusual holiday of Groundhog Day, a day of hope that winter is over and spring is beginning. This tradition has been officially observed in the US since the 1800s, and is believed to have developed from European folk traditions in which a bear, fox, badger, or even hedgehog would serve as the symbolic meteorologist. Although other cultures and towns observe Groundhog Day (or something similar), the town of Punksutawney, Pennsylvania takes special pride in being home to the one true forecasting groundhog, Punxsutawney Phil. At the turn of the twentieth century, townspeople formed the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club to perpetuate the joyful rituals and events surrounding Groundhog Day. Over the years, these events have come to include a scavenger hunt, a talent show, and a ball Legend has it that on Groundhog Day the official weather forecasting groundhog awakens from hibernation and comes out of his burrow to look for his shadow. If he sees his shadow, six more weeks of winter are to come, and Punxsutawney Phill goes back to bed. However, if he does not see his shadow, Punxsutawney Phil takes this as a sign that spring has arrived, and he remains above ground. Of course, common sense tells us that February 2 is too early for spring to begin, and that while animals may be attuned to various elements of nature from which humans might learn, they are unlikely to act on their impincts based on a schedule set by a Gregorian calendar. Nevertheless, a visit to Pennsylvania to see Punksutawney Phil and all of the fun he inspires each year might just provide the touch of hope needed to reach the end of winter.   What source would be most useful in determining the reliability of Punxsutawney Phil's predictions over a number of years?

A. A memoir from a member of The Groundhog Club

B. A record of weather patterns in the last decade

C. An encyclopedia entry on mammals in the northeast U.S.

D. A historical survey of customs in Pennsylvania

Answer Explanation

This source would provide empirical data on the accuracy of Punxsutawney Phil's predictions by comparing them to actual weather patterns observed over a period of time.
