Question 1 of 5

Which is not mentioned as a possible result of being spanked in childhood?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: 'Incontinence.' The passage discusses the negative consequences of spanking in childhood, such as increased aggression, delinquent behavior, and future sexual problems like coercive sex. However, incontinence is not mentioned as a possible result of being spanked. Therefore, it is the correct choice. Choices A, B, and C are all supported by the passage, making them incorrect answers.

Question 2 of 5

What conclusion can you draw from the first sentence of the passage?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B. The first sentence suggests that osteoporosis receives significant media coverage, indicating that the media gives a lot of overall coverage to the issue. This conclusion can be drawn as the passage mentions how osteoporosis is a major health concern for women and is widely covered in newspapers and television commercials. Choice A is incorrect because the passage does not mention the prevalence of osteoporosis compared to previous estimates. Choice C is incorrect as the passage highlights that men are being overlooked in terms of bone thinning concerns. Choice D is incorrect as the passage emphasizes the seriousness of bone thinning and the need for preventive measures.

Question 3 of 5

Which statement could be inferred from the passage?

Correct Answer: A

Choice B is incorrect because the passage actually states that low-impact exercise can help reduce fatigue in patients with serious health conditions. Choice C is incorrect as the passage indicates that an increase in energy levels does correspond to a reduction in fatigue. Choice D is incorrect as the passage does not provide information on the exact number of participants in each group.
