Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

(1) The EITC is a refundable federal tax credit for low-income working families that can reduce the amount of taxes owed and result in a tax refund for those who qualify; (2) To qualify, a family (married and filing taxes jointly) must have adjusted gross income in 2010 of less than 45,373 with two children, 40,545 with one child and 18,470 with no children; (3) The EITC lifts millions of families out of poverty each year and is one of the country's largest sources of assistance for poor and low-income families; (4) Enacted in 1975 and expanded in the 1990s, it keeps 6.5 million Americans out of poverty each year; (5) It cost the government about 54 billion in 2010; (6) It encourages employment because it offers a real supplement to wages for qualifying low-income workers; (7) Without the EITC, poverty rates among children would be about one-third higher than they are now.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. 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.
