3 :
Research shows that tipping in a restaurant has little to no effect on service. What tipping does do is enable restaurateurs to pay less than the federal minimum wage to servers and depend on customers to make up the difference between servers' salaries and the minimum wage. The U.S. federal minimum wage for servers is $2.13 per hour. Although minimum wage varies from state to state, it is safe to say that customers are paying the lion's share of servers' salaries. This practice leads to resentment on the part of customers, and it devalues servers. It's time to abolish tipping and pay employees a living wage. The result may well be happy servers who provide excellent service to grateful customers.
Stimulus 1 of 2
Which of the following is the writer's main argument?

The custom of tipping should be abolished, and servers should be paid a living wage.

The federal rate for servers is too low.

Servers should provide excellent service no matter how much they make.

Customers are resentful of having to help pay the salaries of servers.

Hint : 📌Calls for ending tipping system.

Correct Answers:

The custom of tipping should be abolished, and servers should be paid a living wage.

Rationale :

🟡The central claim of the passage is that tipping is an unfair system that allows employers to avoid paying a full wage and places that burden on customers. 🟡The author clearly states, "It's time to abolish tipping and pay employees a living wage," making this the main argument.

Stimulus 2 of 2
Which of the following is evidence the writer provides to support the main argument?

Customers are grateful for excellent service.

Servers do not provide good service because of their low pay.

The minimum wage varies from state to state.

Customers pay a large percentage of servers' salaries.

Hint : ♦Shows who truly pays servers.

Correct Answers:

Customers pay a large percentage of servers' salaries.

Rationale :

💎The writer supports the main argument — that tipping should be abolished in favor of paying servers a living wage — by explaining that the tipping system shifts the financial responsibility from employers to customers.

💎The passage states: “Customers are paying the lion’s share of servers’ salaries.” 💎This is direct evidence used to criticize the tipping system, showing that it unfairly places the burden of employee compensation on customers rather than employers.

💎By highlighting this imbalance, the writer strengthens the case for eliminating tipping and ensuring that servers are compensated fairly through guaranteed wages.

5 :
Shia looked up from his monitor, rubbed his eyes, and stared down the dark hallway toward the CFO's office. He was certain a sound had come from behind the closed door. It was a heavy thump, like someone had dropped a bowling ball.
There shouldn't be anyone else here at this hour, Shia thought to himself as he looked at his watch. The only illumination came from Shia's computer monitor. His office was on the thirtieth floor, far too high to get much more than a faint glow from the street lights below. Shia slowly stood up before reaching down to turn off the computer screen, hoping to hide in the darkness. He considered turning on his phone's flashlight, but his thoughts were cut short by a loud crash followed by the unmistakable tinkling of shattered glass.
She froze, as if he were caught by the gaze of Medusa. The initial doubt that he would actually find someone snooping around the CFO's office had turned to an icy fear that gripped his lungs and would not let him breathe. His heart was pounding loudly in his ears; he knew whoever was in his boss's office must be able to hear it.
Another crash, followed by a loud howl that he was sure couldn't be human, shocked Shia into motion. He broke into a run... in the opposite direction. He sprinted for the emergency stairwell and rushed downward, jumping over the last few steps of each fight. Shia didn't stop running and he had burst through the ground floor exit to the parking garage and found his car, His heart continued racing until he was at home in bed. He sent his boss a single text message before turning over and trying to force himself to sleep, "Don't think I can work late anymore"

Stimulus 3 of 5
Which of the following is the tone of the passage?

Witty

Aggressive

Incredulous

Tense

Hint : ⏺Creates suspense and fear.

Correct Answers:

Tense

10 :
An Interesting Birthday Party
On Saturday afternoon, local eccentric Dr. Oliver Creekstone held a remarkable 90th birthday party at his countryside estate. Present were 3,000 guests, four zebras, two monster trucks, and a famous bagpipe player from Scotland. Though pleased with the entertainment, attendees reportedly were shocked that the complimentary buffet contained only boiled asparagus and pickled carrots. At nightfall, the party was treated to a stunning and seemingly endless fireworks display. According to our sources, Dr. Creekstone felt that next year's birthday party would have to be even bigger and more interesting. "We'll need at least seven more zebras," he said.
Stimulus 1 of 2
Which of the following conclusions is supported by all of the details provided about the birthday party?

Dr. Oliver Creekstone is an unconventional fellow.

The Creekstone estate cannot hold seven more zebras.

Dr. Oliver Creekstone is a carnivorous eater.

The Creekstone estate is a half-acre lot lined with trees.

Hint : 💥Evidence points to unusual behavior.

Correct Answers:

Dr. Oliver Creekstone is an unconventional fellow.

Rationale :

📌The passage provides multiple unusual and extravagant details about Dr. Creekstone’s birthday party — including 3,000 guests, four zebras, monster trucks, a bagpipe player from Scotland, and a buffet with only boiled asparagus and pickled carrots.

📌These eccentric choices, along with his remark about needing “seven more zebras” next year, strongly support the conclusion that he is unconventional or eccentric. 📌This aligns with the opening description of him as a “local eccentric.”
