Praxis (5511) Practice: Citizenship and Social Science Questions and Answers 100% Pass A student has been given an assignment to write a research paper about the United States Civil War. Which of the following is a secondary source that the student might use for the project? A.A social studies textbook B.Lincoln's Gettysburg Address C.The dia ry of a Confederate soldier D.A photograph from the Battle of Antietam ✔✔Option (A) is correct. A social studies textbook is a secondary source, while all the other options are primary sources. A.total population that is unemployed B.adult population that is unemployed C.labor force that is laid off from work D.labor force that is unemployed ✔✔Option (D) is correct. The unemployment rate is the ratio of the number of people unemployed to those in the labor force. Those individuals employed and seeking empl oyment are considered to be in the labor force. The unemployed consist of those laid off and those persons who are entering the labor market for the first time, and those who are returning after additional training and education. All of the following are aspects of disagreement in the Israeli -Palestinian conflict EXCEPT A.territorial borders B.water rights C.religious claims to land D.state control of the economy ✔✔Option (D) is correct. It is the only option that describes something that is not a prominen t aspect of the Israeli -Palestinian conflict. Neither side of the conflict has officially listed state control of the economy as a source of disagreement or dispute; Israel has a largely capitalist economy, while the Palestinian political economy is more o f a hybrid between a market economy and state -directed development (in the West Bank, the Gazan economy is significantly underdeveloped and partially underground). All of the following were characteristic of the interaction between China and Great Britain in the 1800s EXCEPT: A.China used military means to resist the importation of opium. B.China agreed to grant treaty ports to Great Britain. C.Great Britain colonized large areas of southern and central China. D.Great Britain joined with other Western powe rs to crush the Boxer Rebellion. ✔✔Option (C) is correct. This question tests your knowledge of the relationship between European powers and Asia in the period of nineteenth -century European imperialism. Note that this is an EXCEPT question, which means yo u are looking for the single choice that is not characteristic of the interaction between China and Great Britain. European powers, including Great Britain, did not colonize large portions of China. At the end of the twentieth century, which of the following regions had the highest rate of deforestation when calculated as a percentage of the total area of rain forest in the region? A.Central Africa B.South America C.Southeast Asia D.Eastern Europe ✔✔Option (C) is correct. This question tests your knowledge of the rain forest biomes of the world. Although environmentalists became increasingly concerned during the 1990s as the Brazilian government extended transportation networks and resource development projects into the country's Amazon basin, razing hundreds of thousands of acres of the region's lush tropical rain forest, the actual rate of deforestation as a percentage of the total area of rain forest has been moderate. About 5 percent of the total ra in forest has been cleared. The rate of deforestation is highest in southern and southeastern Asia, primarily associated with commercial timber exploitation.
