Correct Answer: many people who live in emerging nations are not receiving proper medical care
Explanation:
This answer is implied by the statement that redistribution is needed so that people in emerging nations can have proper medical care. Choices a, b, and c are not mentioned in the passage. Choice d is also incorrect?the passage indicates that the distribution of medicine, not its production, is inadequate.
Correct Answer: employees social values have changed over the past ten years.
Explanation:
A change in employee social values over the past ten years is implied in the whole paragraph, but particularly in the first sentence. Choice a is incorrect because the loyalty of the managers to their corporations is never discussed. There is no support for choice b. In choice d, perhaps career advancement is less important than it once was, but the paragraph does not indicate that advancement is unimportant to managers. Choice e is an opinion that is not supported.
Correct Answer: there are at least two opinions about the use of calculators in schools.
Explanation:
The paragraph clearly states that there are two differing opinions with regard to the use of calculators in the classroom. Although some people may believe that choice b is true, the paragraph does not indicate this. Choice c has no relation to the paragraph.
