For ITEM Nos 11 – 15: Read carefully the
following paragraphs and choose from
the given alternatives the BEST answer
to the questions.
The public often believes that the main job of
a uniformed office is to enforce laws simply
by arresting people. In reality, however,
many of the situations that an officer deals
with do not call for the use of the power of
arrest such as when an officer spends much
of his or her time preventing crimes from
happening by spotting potential violations or
suspicious behavior and taking action to
prevent illegal acts.
The majority of these problems do not result
in arrests and convictions, and often they do
not even involve illegal behavior. There are
even instances where there seems to be
good reason to make an arrest, but an officer
needs to exercise very good judgement
because there are times when making an
arrest too soon could touch off a riot, or could
result in the detention of a minor offender.
11. According to the passage, one way in which
law enforcement officers can prevent crimes
from happening is by:
a. Back-up
b. Common sense
c. Good judgement
d. Warrant of arrest
e. Handcuff
14. According to the passage what is needed by
a police officer in some situations where there
seems to be good reason to make an arrest?
a. Back-up
b. Common sense
c. Good judgement
d. Warrant of arrest
e. Handcuff
15. The last sentence in the passage mentions
‘detention of a minor offender’. Of the following
which BEST explains the meaning of the word
‘detention’?
a. Indicting someone
b. Sentencing someone
c. Calling someone before a grand jury
d. Arresting someone
e. Incarcerating someone

“As I looked at the goldfish crisp on the floor
of my kitchen, I reminisced about the tiny
hands of my children and an earlier season in
life. Though the fallen crisp was the result of
forage, the image made me realize how
quickly time passes. As I dealt with sleepless
nights, teething babies and “potty” training, I
would have been hard-pressed to believe
that the end was soon in sight.
The hands that once cupped goldfish
crackers now grip a sports bag, textbooks
and an iPad. Beyond living for the moment,
we must be people who patiently await God’s
next move. We must let go of anger, give up
stubbornness, and let go of yesterday. For, in
the end, we will reign with the One who has
always been and who always will be!”
16. What could be the BEST title of this passage?
a. Anger
