Have you ever wondered what swims in the deepest parts of the world's oceans? Well, we just got a better idea about one mysterious creature of the deep ocean: the giant squid. Just recently a Japanese film crew managed to film a giant squid swimming in its natural habitat. They managed to lure it to their cameras with bait after many hours of waiting and searching two thousand feet below the surface of the Pacific Ocean. The giant squid is truly a giant. It can grow up to 50 feet in length, with tentacles making up most of this great length. For comparison, 50 feet is about as long as most school buses. Imagine meeting something the size of your school bus in the deep dark ocean and you might get an idea what it is like to meet a squid. Over the centuries, many squid specimens have been found, but it's hard to get an idea of how the squid lives because it typically cruises in the deepest depths of the ocean. We know that the giant squid's main predator is the sperm whale. We know this because bits of giant squid have been found in the stomachs of sperm whales. We also know they feed on deep-sea fish and other squid. We know this because of all the giant squid that have washed ashore. The giant squid lives in all of the world's oceans, though few are found in the tropics or the Arctic waters. As a result, stories of giant squid were told among sailors for hundreds of years. These sightings must have been frightening and may be the source for the legend of the Kraken, a sea monster reputed to be as large as an island and capable of eating an entire ship. Based on the bolded paragraph, what does the author suggest by comparing a squid to a school bus?

Chocolate: The New Health Food Now you can stop feeling guilty about that bite of chocolate you had for dessert. Chocolate has been found to be a cause of weight gain. But scientists have discovered that it does have some health benefits. However, don’t reach for that chocolate cake just yet. Researchers found that only people who ate about one ounce of dark chocolate per day received the health benefit. Dark chocolate is full of flavonoids, which help prevent diseases. Flavonoids have been found to decrease cholesterol and reduce blood clots that can cause strokes. Flavonoids also boost a natural chemical in your brain called serotonin. Low serotonin can cause depression. That’s probably why eating chocolate boosts mood and feelings of well-being. Chocolate: A Bittersweet Pill Many new studies have found that chocolate has some unexpected health benefits. But before we start calling chocolate the new wonder food, let’s look at the facts. These so-called health benefits don’t beat the risks of eating too much chocolate. Chocolate is rich in fats and sugar. Eating too much of it can lead to weight gain. Other studies have shown that eating chocolate can trigger painful headaches in some people. In addition, chocolate can increase the risk of developing painful kidney stones in some people. Plus, only dark chocolate has health benefits, not milk chocolate. White chocolate also has no health benefits. 3 Select the correct answers. Which two points do the two passages agree on? Chocolate can boost feelings of well-being and lower depression. Dark chocolate has some health benefits. Eating chocolate in large amounts is good for health. Chocolate can cause weight gain. Eating chocolate can cause headaches in some people.

Please use the following text to answer the question.

Dalits, also known as "Untouchables," are members of the lowest social group in the Hindu caste system. The word "Dalit," meaning "oppressed" or "broken," is the name members of this group gave themselves in the 1930s. A Dalit actually is born below the caste system, which includes four primary castes: Brahmins (priests), Kshatriya (warriors and princes), Vaishya (farmers and artisans), and Shudra (tenant farmers and servants).

According to the text above what is another name for the group of people known as "Dalits?"

Question 1 options:

Vaishyas


Untouchables


Shudras

Question 2 (2 points)
As used in the reading, what does the word “Jatis” refer to?

The caste system, as it actually works in India is called jati. The term jati appears in almost all Indian languages and is related to the idea of lineage or kinship group. There are perhaps more than 3000 jatis in India and there is no one all-Indian system of ranking them in order of status. Yet in each local area jati ranking exists and is very much related to purity and pollution. Each jati has some unique job, but not everyone in the jati performs it. Thus there are barbers who do not shave, carpenters who do not build, and Brahmins who do not act as priests.

Question 2 options:

The thousands of subcastes in India


Marriage between members of different caste groups


The over complication of the caste system

Answer the following 2 questions after reading the passage below



The Minoans



In the year 1900, Sir Arthur Evans, a British archaeologist, discovered the

buried ruins of a huge palace at Knossos (NAH-suhs), on the Mediterranean

island of Crete (kreet). Evans had stumbled on the remains of the earliest

civilization in Europe, one that flourished from about 3000 to 1100 B.C.E

Evans named it the Minoan civilization, after King Minos (MIY-nuhs), a

mythical ruler of Crete. As Evans dug up the ruins of the palace, he was astonished to find how wealthy and advanced the Minoan culture had been. He uncovered the remains of a sophisticated plumbing system that piped fresh water into the palace. His most striking discovery, however, was a series of frescoes—wall paintings made by applying colors to wet plaster. Some of the frescoes depicted plants and animals. Others showed Cretan men and women dressed in elegant clothes.

Passive resistance, that is, soul-force, is matchless. It is superior to the force of arms. How, then, can it be considered only a weapon of the weak? Physical force men are strangers to the courage that is requisite in a passive resister. Do you believe that a coward can ever disobey a law that he dislikes? Extremists are considered to be advocates of brute-force. Why do they, then, talk about obeying laws? I do not blame them. They can say nothing else. When they succeed in driving out the English, and they themselves become governors, they will want you and me to obey their laws. And that is a fitting thing for their constitution. But a passive resister will say he will not obey a law that is against his conscience, even though he may be blown to pieces at the mouth of a cannon.
What do you think? Wherein is courage required — in blowing others to pieces from behind a cannon or with a smiling face to approach a cannon and be blown to pieces? Who is the true warrior — he who keeps death always as a bosom-friend or he who controls the death of others? Believe me that a man devoid of courage and manhood can never be a passive resister.
This, however, I will admit: that even a man, weak in body, is capable of offering this resistance. One man can offer it just as well as millions. Both men and women can indulge in it. It does not require the training of an army; it needs no Jiu-jitsu. Control over the mind is alone necessary, and, when that is attained, man is free like the king of the forest, and his very glance withers the enemy.
Passive resistance is an all-sided sword; it can be used anyhow; it blesses him who uses it and him against whom it is used. Without drawing a drop of blood, it produces far-reaching results. It never rusts, and cannot be stolen. Competition between passive resisters does not exhaust. The sword of passive resistance does not require a scabbard. It is strange indeed that you should consider such a weapon to be a weapon merely of the weak.3
Passage 2: Nelson Mandela
Some of the things so far told to the Court are true and some are untrue. I do not, however, deny that I planned sabotage. I did not plan it in a spirit of recklessness, nor because I have any love of violence. I planned it as a result of a calm and sober assessment of the political situation that had arisen after many years of tyranny, exploitation, and oppression of my people by the Whites. . . .
. . . We first broke the law in a way which avoided any recourse to violence; when this form was legislated against, and then the Government resorted to a show of force to crush opposition to its policies, only then did we decide to answer violence with violence. . . .

. . . I, and some colleagues, came to the conclusion that as violence in this country was inevitable, it would be unrealistic and wrong for African leaders to continue preaching peace and non-violence at a time when the Government met our peaceful demands with force.
This conclusion was not easily arrived at. It was only when all else had failed, when all channels of peaceful protest had been barred to us, that the decision was made to embark on violent forms of political struggle. . . .
. . . I can only say that I felt morally obliged to do what I did. . . .
Above all, we want equal political rights, because without them our disabilities will be permanent. I know this sounds revolutionary to the whites in this country, because the majority of voters will be Africans. This makes the white man fear democracy.
But this fear cannot be allowed to stand in the way of the only solution which will guarantee racial harmony and freedom for all. It is not true that the enfranchisement of all will result in racial domination. Political division, based on colour, is entirely artificial and, when it disappears, so will the domination of one colour group by another. The ANC has spent half a century fighting against racialism. When it triumphs it will not change that policy.4
