Answer:
C.) will pick up
Explanation:
Adverb clauses are groups of words with at least a subject and a verb and whose function is to modify or describe adjectives, verbs or other adverbs. They, therefore, provide information about time, place, reason, manner, condition, frequency or degree and are usually introduced by subordinate conjunctions such as when, where, since, because, while, although, after, as, as if, before, so that, unless, even, and until.
In the sentence, the adverb clause, which it's “when school is out,” modifies the verb phrase “will pick up” by providing information about time (It answers the question: When will the bus pick up the children?)

23. Read the paragraph and answer the question.
You can use trick sentences or rhymes as mnemonic devices to recall information. For example, you can recall this rhyme: “In 1492, Columbus sailed the ocean blue.” The rhyming of “2” and “blue” should help you remember that Columbus arrived in the New World in 1492. Or you can use the sentence “Every good boy does fine” to remember the notes of the treble clef in music notation. Simply name the first letter of each word in the “nonsense sentence” to remember E,G,B,D, and F—in that order. You can also recall information by using acronyms. An acronym condenses information into an abbreviation expressed as a set of capital letters. For example, WHO stands for the World Health Organization. To recall the names of the Great Lakes, you can associate the names of the lakes with the acronym HOMES to remember Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie, and Superior.
Which of the following best expresses the main idea of this paragraph? A. Mnemonic devices are silly sentences while acronyms are abbreviations. B. You can use mnemonic devices to recall information. C. Mnemonic devices are usually rhymes while acronyms require definitions. D. Acronyms are easier to recall than mnemonic devices, but both are useful.
Read the following paragraph to answer questions 24, 25, and 26.
Lucas was a voracious reader, absorbing novels, biographies, and popular science books. His standardized test scores were all quite high. He also got along fine with other kids during recess, laughing and playing like a perfectly normal twelve-year-old. But when the bell rang for class, his facial expression changed. An observer might have been reminded of a prisoner returning to his cell. In class, Lucas was one of those kids who slouched at his desk in the back of the room, gazing out a window or trying to find ways to allay his boredom. To that end, he often drew pictures of spaceships. He also drew pictures of dragons attacking spaceships. When truly inspired, he drew pictures of alien monsters attacking dragons, thus allowing his spaceships to escape to distant galaxies. Indeed, the inside of his desk was a dense clutter of these fanciful sketches. By late afternoon, too drowsy for dragons, alien monsters, or spaceships, Lucas would gaze hopefully at the white clock on the wall, willing the second hand to move faster, faster. Of course, it never moved faster, and, inevitably, he would only become more and more impatient with the painfully slow movement of the hour hand.
24. The main idea we can get from this paragraph is that A. Lucas was obsessed with science fiction. B. Lucas was irresponsible, but artistic. C. Lucas was smart and creative, but bored with school. D. Lucas was poorly adjusted and possibly mentally ill.
The word 'notables' indicates persons with political influence. 'Volatile' refers to a temperamental and impulsive nature as shown in John's situation. The statement about Lincoln's intention being solely to hurt the South is opinion-based. Mnemonic devices are tools to help recall information.
The word notables refers to those people who have political influence (D). For the definition of volatile, sentences 2 and 3 (A) in the paragraph about John shows his impulsive and temperamental reaction, hence the word 'volatile' is best defined as 'Temperamental and impulsive' (B). In the paragraph about Abraham Lincoln, sentence 4 (D) expresses an opinion and not a fact. The main idea of the paragraph about mnemonic devices is that you can use them to recall information (B). From the paragraph about Lucas, the main idea is that Lucas was smart and creative, but bored with school (C).

a. True
b. False
Answer:
False.
Explanation:
By early novels, most, not without some controversy, would refer to the modern novel that, without a doubt, was inaugurated by Cervantes´ Don Quixote, and followed by many others ever since. What characterizes these early novels is the indiscriminate use of fiction, up to a point where, like the narrator of the Quixote, reality, authorship, and fictionalized narrative are indistinguishable (which is what makes this genre so enticing and fascinating). Although this indiscriminate use of fiction and reality led to a specific genre of novels called “epistolary novel”, this could hardly be credited with the rise in popularity that the novel genre saw in the 17th century.
