Excerpt from Job Interview II http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Job_interview A common type of job interview in the modern workplace is the behavioral interview. In this sort of interview, the interviewers tend to ask questions about general situations, with the candidate asked to describe how they did or would handle a specific problem. (2)The goal of the interview was to assess the candidate's ability to respond to the sorts of situations that the job may present them with. The questions asked will therefore be based on the job description, the performance indicators, the skills/personal qualities required, and (3)the interviewer's knowledge of operating in the role. The interviewer is interested (4)in the thought process used, the values of the candidate, and the outcome of the situation. Structured selection techniques have a better track record of identifying the soundest candidate than the old-style interview. (5)Typical behavioral interview questions may include.Describe a time you had to work with someone you didn't like.Tell me about a time when you had to stick by (6)a decision you had made, even though it made you very unpopular.How would you handle a boss you suspected of performing unethical actions? What was the last time you were late with a project? According to the passage, which is NOT a reason why employers conduct "behavioral interviews"?

they want to assess the values of the candidate

they want to see if the candidate has good morals and character

they want to ask the candidate about past experiences on the job

Excerpt from United States v. Robert Stevens US Supreme Court A. This Court has recognized that some categories of speech lack First Amendment protection, because the speech has little or no expressive value and causes serious societal harms. Whether a given category of speech enjoys First Amendment protection depends upon a categorical balancing of the value of the speech against its societal costs. By "serious social harms," the writer means

things which cause bodily injury

things which make some people upset

things which are socially inappropriate

Excerpt from Acupuncture: Help or Hype? by Tracy Wilson "5 Relatively few complications from the use of acupuncture have been reported to the FDA in light of the millions of people treated each year and the number of acupuncture needles used. Still, complications have resulted from inadequate sterilization of needles and from improper delivery of treatments. Practitioners should use a new set of disposable needles taken from a sealed package for each patient and should swab treatment sites with alcohol or another disinfectant before inserting needles. When not delivered properly, acupuncture can cause serious adverse effects, including infections and punctured organs." Which detail belongs in paragraph 5 to help support the main idea of the paragraph?

Most of the adverse effects of acupuncture that have been reported do not derive from the procedure itself but from improper application.

Places to receive acupuncture are increasingly easy to find all across the United States.

Not everyone is necessarily fond of acupuncture; some patients prefer other methods of physical therapy.

Even though acupuncture is a popular Chinese treatment, it has grown popular around the world.

Practitioners would benefit from attending hands on training for other procedures besides acupuncture.

Excerpt from Product Review: Battery Chargers by Steve Dawson "2 We conducted tests for battery strength and recharging capacity. First, we used each brand to operate a digital camera and a portable CD player. Digital cameras use large amounts of power for each picture taken, but portable CD players draw smaller amounts of power over a longer period. We determined the amount of power in each battery two ways. First, we counted the number of flashes from the camera. Second, we recorded the amount of playing time for the CD player. We then recharged the batteries and retested." Why did the testers try the batteries in different devices?

because the devices use battery power in different ways

to make the reviews more exciting

to be able to check a larger number of batteries

because some people might not be interested in using one of the devices

because variety makes for a spicier, more well-rounded article

"1 I must here introduce a short digression. In the case of animals and plants with separated sexes, it is of course obvious that two individuals must always unite for each birth; but in the case of hermaphrodites this is far from obvious. Nevertheless there is reason to believe that with all hermaphrodites, two individuals, either occasionally, or habitually, concur for the reproduction of their kind. This view was long ago doubtfully suggested by Sprengel, Knight, and Kolreuter. We shall presently see its importance; but I must here treat the subject with extreme brevity, though I have the materials prepared for an ample discussion." In this sentence from the first paragraph of the passage, what does the word concur mean?

ignore

separate

understand

act together

disagree about
