Question 1 of 40
1. Question
Read passage 1 below carefully and answer the question that follows.
Passage I
Primitive man was probably more with fire as a source of light. Before he discovered less laborious ways of making fire, he had to preserve it and whenever he went on a journey, he carried a firebrand with him. His discovery that the firebrand, from which the torch may well have developed, could be used for illumination was probably incidental to the primary purpose of preserving a flame.
Lamps, too, probably developed by accident. Early man may have had his first conception of a lamp while watching a twig or fibre burning in the molten fat dropped from roasting carcass. All he has to do was to fashion a vessel to contain fat and float in lighted reed in it. Such lamps, which were made of hollowed sea-shells, have persisted in identical form up to quite recent times.
Primitive men carried a firebrand during his journeys mainly for ______.

Question 6 of 40
6. Question
Read the passage below carefully and answer the question that follows.
Passage II
Delinquency describes actions that would not be crime if performed by adults. If a young person performs such an action, then he has committed a crime. Delinquency is one of several status offences that can be committed only by people in particular stations of life as determined by age, profession or a person’s role in society. For young people, such offences include drinking, driving and smoking underage. Usually they are offences only to the extent that they help to preserve some of the good things of life for the exclusive enjoyment of the adult world. Delinquency is therefore, a weapon forged in adult minds and directed by adult hand against young people. It is born out of envy, adult primed and intolerance. If the world change overnight and the responsibility to make and enforce laws fell on juvenile shoulders, the adults should expect a raw deal in return. Delinquency will then, certainly, refer only to many of the adult actions now freely committed by them.
The writer of the passage believes that delinquency laws are ___________.
