Hello. Lately I have been struggling with MCQ questions. My issue is not understanding the concepts (I get 5's on the majority of my FRQ's) but rather deciding my final answer between the two possible answers I've narrowed it down to. I'm set on many of the questions, but certain ones are either phrased weirdly, or I miss read small details/ Don't pay attention enough to these details. Here are a few examples of a question I got wrong on my latest practice test for my aphug exam on May 5th.
Agricultural production in the developed world is difficult to classify as part of the primary economy. Why?
A) Production no longer happens primarily in a field but rather through high tech methods such as hydroponics
B) Agriculture is primarily controlled by large agribusiness that encourage large scale industrial production.
C) With so little of the labor force engaged in this economic activity, the category essentially no longer exists for the developed world.
D) Developed countries now outsource all of their agricultural production from the developing world.
E) Agricultural production is still very much a primary economic activity in the developed world.
I was easily able to narrow down the answers to between A and B, but I ended up choosing A which was the incorrect answer. I thought that because A contained higher tech methods, it would veer further from the primary sector. (The answer was B in case ya didn't know)
This next one may just be a me issue, but wouldn't the answer be a creole language as they come from pidgin languages which are used for trade? It states that this language is used widely for TRADE. FYI- the answer was A.
Swahili is the language of trade for most of East Africa and the only African language in use by the African Union. As such it is a good example of a
A) Lingua franca
B) Dialect
C) syncretism
D) Creole
E) Cultural hearth
Any advice would be much appreciated :).
