Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
FEEDBACK: Horney found that in the neurotic person, one of these three trends is dominant, whereas the other two are present to a lesser degree. In the person who is not neurotic, all three trends can be expressed as circumstances warrant.

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.
