Question 4
Paragraph 4 contains an allusion to scientist Albert Einstein. What is the author implying by the allusion?
Select one:
Like Einstein, bees are intelligent and can perform intellectual tasks
Like Einstein, bees are known to have a keen sense of direction
Like Einstein, bees are thought to be social insects that live in groups
Like Einstein, bees are known to have a large brain
Bees are a favorite experimental creature for researchers because they are easy to breed and are considered the “Einstein” of the insect world. These striped geniuses perform intellectual feats that cannot be taken for granted, even among mammals. Bees can count, distinguish between objects like humans and dogs, recognize complex shapes, learn things, navigate across great distances and remember their routes, and return to their hives and tell other bees exactly where the tastiest flowers are. Compare that with the difficulties humans can have when finding their way around an unfamiliar city without a map—not to mention having to describe to friends the route they took. “Brain size is not necessarily an indicator of intelligence,” says bee researcher Lars Chittka at Queen Mary, University of London. “Larger brains usually utilize the same circuits over and over again. This might make for more detailed thinking or remembering, but it doesn’t guarantee the thoughts or memories will be better.”
Answer:
What the author is implying by the allusion to Albert Einstein is:
A. Like Einstein, bees are intelligent and can perform intellectual tasks.
Explanation:
Let's take a look at the very beginning of the passage:
they are easy to breed and are considered the “Einstein” of the insect world. These striped geniuses perform intellectual feats that cannot be taken for granted, even among mammals.
The lines above already tell us what we need to know. The allusion to Einstein was used as a way to say that bees are intelligent creatures. That is how allusions work. An author alludes to something or someone widely known so as to bring something to readers' minds. In this case, everyone who has ever heard of Einstein associates his name with intelligence. After the allusion, the author proceeds to list some of the amazing tasks and abilities bees have. Having that in mind, we can easily choose letter A as the best choice: Like Einstein, bees are intelligent and can perform intellectual tasks.

You know Dasher and Dancer
And Prancer and Vixen,
Comet and Cupid
And Donner and Blitzen.
But do you recall
The most famous reindeer of all?
Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
had a very shiny nose.
And if you ever saw him,
you would even say it glows.
All of the other reindeer
used to laugh and call him names.
They never let poor Rudolph
join in any reindeer games.
Then one foggy Christmas Eve
Santa came to say:
"Rudolph with your nose so bright,
won't you guide my sleigh tonight?"
Then all the reindeer loved him
as they shouted out with glee,
Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer,
you'll go down in history!

According to the latest science reports, eight hours’ sleep per night is the new 10,000 steps (which was itself the new five-a-day), so we’d better get things sorted in the bedrooms of Britain! Dr David Campbell of the Cheltenham-based National Sleep Institute says that Britons are definitely taking more interest in how much pillow time they get. “People, especially young people who own smart sports watches or exercise wristbands, are increasingly bragging about the time they go to bed; and instead of it being in the early hours as it might have been 20 years ago, now it’s closer to 10 or even 9pm,” he says.

How does Percy find out that Poseidon is his father?
Read this paragraph from the essay.
I have now been in India for over two years and a half after my return from South Africa. Over one quarter of that time I have passed on the Indian trains travelling third class by choice. I have travelled up north as far as Lahore, down south up to Tranquebar, and from Karachi to Calcutta. Having resorted to third class travelling, among other reasons, for the purpose of studying the conditions under which this class of passengers travel, I have naturally made as critical observations as I could. I have fairly covered the majority of railway systems during this period. Now and then I have entered into correspondence with the management of the different railways about the defects that have come under my notice. But I think that the time has come when I should invite the press and the public to join in a crusade against a grievance which has too long remained unredressed, though much of it is capable of redress without great difficulty.
How does the author's decision to use the word crusade to describe a protest movement affect the text?
A.) It makes the protest sound especially strong and committed.
B.) It adds an element of irony to the description of the protest.
C.) It implies that the protesters will not back down, no matter what.
D.) It suggests that there is a religious reason behind the protest.
Answer:
The answer is A) It makes the protest sound especially strong and committed.
Explanation:
The word Crusade coined in the late 16th century is of French origin (spelled then as croisade) and was used mostly as a description for being marked with the cross. Its current spelling was originated in the eighteenth century.
Today the word Crusade means two things:
First, each of a series of age-old military attempts by the Europeans to reclaim the Holy Land which at that time was occupied and in possession of the Muslims between the 11th, and 13th centuries.
Second, a strong solicitation for legal changes in which may be political, social, or religious in nature.
From the text above, it is clear that the writer implied the second definition. It is clear to see that the choice of words is intended (just as we can see in the definition) to communicate a sturdy commitment towards the proposed reforms.
