Answer to Question 1

Answer: C, D, E

A 5-year-old should be able to button his shirt. A 6-year-old should be able to sit still for a short story; this is a task that children between 3 and 5 years are typically able to do. A child who cannot cut with scissors by kindergarten age is considered developmentally delayed, but a 2-year-old is not expected to be able to do this. A 2-year-old is not expected to be able to recite a phone number. A 3-year-old is usually able to speak in sentences.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C

Temperament is the way individuals respond to their external and internal environment, and it sets the stage for the interactive dynamics of growth and development. Physical characteristics include eye color and potential height but do not affect how children interact, for the most part. Environmental factors include family, religion, climate, culture, school, community, and nutrition; they do not play as significant a role in how the child responds to peers as temperament does. Culture is one of the environmental factors.

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.

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.

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.
