Answer to Question 1

Achievement tests measure how much of a particular subject or skill has been learned by the examinees.

Answer to Question 2

Young children experience rapid developmental changes during preschool and kindergarten that cause many of them to score very differently on a test when they retake it six months later. Therefore, standardized test scores for young children have low reliability and are not an appropriate basis for making educational decisions.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
