Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The newly formed family will be coping with tasks associated with the stage of rearing preschool children and teenagers. These stages require different knowledge and skills. There is no evidence of a problem, so the distracters are not indicated.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The correct option asks about use of resources in an open, direct fashion. It will give information about choices the family has made regarding use of resources in the community. The other questions do not address prior use of resources or focus on other aspects of coping.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
