  2. Completing the series

  3. 1 A B C D E The first square has 25 black squares, the second has 16, the third 9, the fourth 4 and so the 5th will have one square (reducing sequence of the square numbers 25, 16, 9, 4, 1) Also squares are removed from the right and from the bottom, so the final square will be in the top left corner. ANSWER: D

  4. 2 A B C D E The first box has two lines, the second 3, the third 4, the fourth 5 and so the fifth box will have six lines, so the answer is.. ANSWER: C

  5. 3 A B C D E The first box has 5 short lines and no long lines, the second box: 4 short & 1 long, the third box: 3 short & 2 long, the fourth box 2 short and 3 long. So each time there is one more long line and one less short line, so in the fifth box there will be 1 short and 4 long lines. ANSWER: A

  6. 4 A B C D E Each box contains 8 straight lines and a circle. Only answer C contains 8 straight lines and a circle. ANSWER: C

  7. 5 A B C D E The first box has 7 straight lines, the second 11, the third 15, the fourth 19 and so the fifth box will have 23 lines, so the answer is C ANSWER: D

  8. 6 A B C D E Triangle pattern: Triangle Triangle None Triangle… The next one should have a Triangle. All images have V. ANSWER: D

  9. 7 2 3 4 1 A B C D E Number of black circles: 1, 2, 3, 4… so the next one in the pattern should have 5. ANSWER: A

  10. 8 A B C D E Shapes are rotating COUNTERCLOCKWISE Answer should have a square at the upper right corner to continue the counterclockwise movement. ANSWER: B

  11. 9 A B C D E Number of squares: 3, 4, 5, 6… the next one should have 7. The set of 3 squares should be on top, and the other set should be at the bottom. ANSWER: A

  12. 10 4 3 2 1 8 6 4 2 A B C D E Number of black circles are decreasing: 4, 3, 2, 1. Next one should have 0. Gray circles are decreasing by 2: 8, 6, 4, 2. Next one should have 0. ANSWER: B

  38. 35-38 For the next four numbers, you will see fictitious constellations of stars. Some stars are light; others are dark. All stars are the same size. So, when some stars appear to be large, they are in the foreground of the constellation; when others appear to be small, they are in the background. Note that further stars might be hidden behind those that you see. Look at the example below. The perspective from which you see the constellation on the left is assumed to be the view from the FRONT. If the constellation would rotate in space or if you were in a spaceship orbiting it, you could see it from other perspectives, relative to the front view. For instance, you might see it from the LEFT or from the RIGHT as indicated here:

  39. 35 • A. Left View C. Right View • B. Top View D. Bottom View ANSWER: A

  40. 36 • A. Left View C. Right View • B. Top View D. Bottom View ANSWER: B

  48. 43 You take seven children to a toy shop to buy each a soft toy. The toy shop only has one of each type so you ask the children their preferences. You decide to give each child one of their preferred toys. Which animal will you give Jezebel? NAME: TOY PREFERENCES: James Wombat Panda Gorilla Kitten Rat Josh Panda Donkey Dog Jezebel Panda Donkey Kitten Dog Jamelia Panda Donkey Dog Janine Wombat Gorilla Donkey Kitten Rat Jasbeet Panda Dog Jason Wombat Gorilla Dog Rat Kitten • Panda • Donkey • Wombat • Dog • Kitten The trick here is to realize that you can ignore the children with more than four choices. Josh, Jamelia and Jasbeet all have only two or three choices and all want a panda, donkey or dog, so they must each get one of these.  Jezebel also wants a panda, donkey or dog, but she would also accept a kitten, so she must be given this, if each child is to be allowed a preferred animal. ANSWER: E
