Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale: The best way to control the spread of MRSA is handwashing. Disinfecting the school will do no harm, but will not control the spread of the infection, which is brought to the school on the hands of the students.

Answer to Question 2

1
Rationale: Dill pickles are considered free foods because they contain less than 20 calories and 5 grams or less of carbohydrates per serving. The key is the serving size, so two slices of sweet pickles or 1 tablespoon of pickle relish would fall within these guidelines. The other options are not free foods, and must be rationed in the diet.
