Read the passage from "Young Goodman Brown,” in which Goodman Brown is speaking with the traveler he meets in the forest.
"Wickedness or not," said the traveller with the twisted staff, "I have a very general acquaintance here in New England. The deacons of many a church have drunk the communion wine with me; the selectmen of divers towns make me their chairman; and a majority of the Great and General Court are firm supporters of my interest. The governor and I, too—But these are state secrets."
"Can this be so?" cried Goodman Brown, with a stare of amazement at his undisturbed companion. "Howbeit, I have nothing to do with the governor and council; they have their own ways, and are no rule for a simple husbandman like me. But, were I to go on with thee, how should I meet the eye of that good old man, our minister, at Salem village? Oh, his voice would make me tremble both Sabbath day and lecture day."
Thus far the elder traveller had listened with due gravity; but now burst into a fit of irrepressible mirth, shaking himself so violently that his snake-like staff actually seemed to wriggle in sympathy.
What is the most likely purpose of depicting the staff as snake-like?
A. to represent the narrow forest path
B. to symbolize the innocence of humanity
C. to represent the animals in the forest
D. to symbolize evil among humanity

Read each of the following statements and place a checkmark next to each true statement: test-makers give away answers to questions in other questions. a test-taker should check every 20 answers or so to make sure the questions and answers match. long passages on tests should be read quickly to save time. words like best, least, and worst require the test-taker to make judgments about the correct answer. test-takers should not try to answer the questions in their minds before reading over the answer choices. test-makers use the same letter three or four times in a row to trick test-takers.
