READING AND GRAMMAR QUIZ 20Q In 1908, Charles Henry Turner, the first Afri. can American to be published in the pres- tigious journal Science.devised a simple, yet intriguing experiment that seemed to indicate that bees have some perception of time. He started by placing plates of strawberry jam on an outdoor table at dawn, noon, and dusk . Bees soon began arriving regularly at those times to feed. Then, Turner stopped the noon and dusk feedings. At first, the bees continued to arrive at all three times , but soon adjusted their feed- ing times and only came in the mornings . This was one of the first of Turner's seminal insights into insect cognition. 10. Violent video games played for long periods of time inadvertently mimic the same type of repetition used by teachers to reinforce students' ability to retain subject matter. This method makes the content of these games, including overall aggressive themes, easy to absorb, and studies performed in the 1990s connected some violent video games to anger issues, obesity, and addiction. Which choice best states the main idea of the text? A Insects do not have the capacity to perceive time. B Turner's many achievements have not been recognized. C Turner found that bees can adapt their behavior patterns. D Experiments have shown that bees prefer to feed at dawn. Which choice best states the main idea of the text? A People who have anger issues, obesity, and addictions should not play video games. B Some learning strategies are used by both video games and educators. C Video games are always harmful, and should be avoided. D Repetition is the most important way stu- dents learn.

## Step 1The first question asks for the main idea of the first paragraph. The paragraph discusses an experiment conducted by Charles Henry Turner, the first African American to be published in the prestigious journal Science. The experiment involved placing plates of strawberry jam on an outdoor table at different times of the day and observing the behavior of bees. The bees adjusted their feeding times to match the times when the jam was placed out. This indicates that bees have some perception of time.## Step 2The second question asks for the main idea of the second paragraph. The paragraph discusses the effects of playing violent video games for long periods of time. It suggests that the repetition used in these games is similar to the repetition used by teachers to reinforce students' ability to retain subject matter. This repetition makes the content of these games, including overall aggressive themes, easy to absorb. Studies performed in the 1990s connected some violent video games to anger issues, obesity, and addiction.
