Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Some research has suggested that this population may adapt more successfully to old age as a result of successful coping over a lifetime with discrimination and prejudice. While the remaining options are positive factors, they do not have the same degree on influence on the development of coping skills that the correct option has.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Bereaved males may be more socially and emotionally vulnerable. Widowers adapt more slowly than widows to the loss of a spouse and often remarry quickly. The remaining options reflect re-actions that are typically seen in both grieving men and women.

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.
