This document is printed on recycled paper. 350 Main Street, Maiden, Massachusetts 02148-5023 781-338-3000 www.doe.mass.edu Commissioners Foreword Dear Colleagues: The Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS) is the Commonwealth's statewide testing program for public school students. Designed to meet the provisions of the Education Reform Law of 1993, MCAS is based exclusively on the learning standards contained in the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks. The MCAS program was developed with the active involvement of educators from across the state and with the support of the Board of Education. Together, the Frameworks and MCAS are continuing to help schools and districts raise the academic achievement of all students in the Commonwealth. One of the goals of the Department of Education is to help schools acquire the capacity to plan for and meet the accountability requirements of both state and federal law. In keeping with this goal, the Department regularly releases MCAS test items to provide information regarding the kinds of knowledge and skills that students are expected to demonstrate. Local educators are encouraged to use this document together with their school's Test Item Analysis Reports as a guide for planning changes in curriculum and instruction that may be needed to ensure that schools and districts make regular progress in improving student perfomance.

Its original icons were overwhelmingly male—a pattern being subverted in both contemporary iterations of glam and the music industry as a whole. Fluid portrayals of gender, performative sexuality, camp, and vibrant, eye-catching visuals are among the most identifiable traits which signify the glam style, though science fiction also serves as a common thread between many glam stars, both past and present. The superficial linkages between artists like David Bowie, Prince, Janelle Monáe, and St. Vincent provide

    Answer Explanations SAT ® Practice Test #3 © 2015 The College Board. College Board, SAT, and the acorn logo are registered trademarks of the College Board. 5LSA08 Answer Explanations SAT Practice Test #3 Section 1: Reading Test QUESTION 1. Choice B is the best answer. In the passage, Lady Carlotta is approached by the “imposingly attired lady” Mrs. Quabarl while standing at a train sta- tion (lines 32-35). Mrs. Quabarl assumes Lady Carlotta is her new nanny, Miss Hope: “You must be Miss Hope, the governess I’ve come to meet” (lines 36-37). Lady Carlotta does not correct Mrs. Quabarl’s mistake and replies, “Very well, if I must I must” (line 39). Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because the passage is not about a woman weighing a job choice, seeking revenge on an acquaintance, or disliking her new employer. QUESTION 2. Choice C is the best answer. In lines 1-3, the narrator states that Lady Carlotta “stepped out on to the platform of the small wayside station and took a turn or two up and down its uninteresting length” in order to “kill time.” In this context, Lady Carlotta was taking a “turn,” or a short walk, along the platform while waiting for the train to leave the station. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because in this context “turn” does not mean slight movement, change in rotation, or course correction. While Lady Carlotta may have had to rotate her body while moving across the station, “took a turn” implies that Lady Carlotta took a short walk along the plat- form’s length.
