of things placed, thrown, or lying one on another — in other words, a pile — so Choice (A) is the correct answer.
16 B. The main character is describing a scene relative to that of a war, even mentioning an English flag, a general, and dead bodies. The paragraph never states he is doing something for the community, is planning to stay at the town, or is in a dream, so you can conclude that the main character is in some sort of war.
17 B. The passage states that fear leads a swimmer to stop making rational decisions, the first step in drowning.
18 C. To flounder in the water is to splash around helplessly.
19 D. The paragraph doesn’t discourage the reader from going in the water, nor does it mention having someone nearby. It says knowing how to swim can save your life, but the main focus of the passage is on the importance of remaining calm when trouble strikes.
20 D. Napoleon wanted to devise a code that could be read at night, so one of his soldiers invented a system of raised dots that later became Braille.
21 C. The passage states that each letter of the alphabet is represented in Braille by raised dots and that each letter uses from one to six dots.
22 D. Napoleon rejected the idea for a code that could be read at night because it was too complicated. Louis Braille took that idea and simplified it for use by blind people.
23 D. The word tactile refers to something that can be felt with one’s hands.
24 B. According to the last sentence, the biggest satisfaction of being a nurse comes from knowing you make a difference in people’s lives, so Choice (B), helping people, is correct.
25 C. The passage describes many benefits of being a nurse, but it doesn’t talk about the uniforms nurses may wear.
26 D. The passage says that nursing has not only good monetary and work benefits but also rewarding self-satisfaction benefits.
27 B. Abundant is an adjective meaning marked by great plenty. The passage describes abundant job opportunities, meaning there are a lot of jobs from which a nurse can choose.
