Making Inferences Practice Test

The Alvarez family arrives at a city museum on a rainy afternoon. Mr. Alvarez buys tickets and asks about the next tour time. Mrs. Alvarez wipes water from her glasses and checks her umbrella twice. Their son Leo walks ahead, reading every sign near the entrance. Their daughter Camila stays close and holds the museum map with both hands. In the dinosaur hall, Leo stands under the biggest skeleton and tilts his head back. He whispers facts he remembers from a book. Camila watches other visitors instead of the bones. When a loud school group enters, Camila steps behind a bench. Mrs. Alvarez touches Camila’s shoulder and points to a quieter side room. Camila nods quickly and follows. In the side room, the lights are dim and the displays are small. Camila leans in and reads the labels slowly. Leo peeks in and asks, “Why are you hiding?” Camila shrugs and traces the map’s edges with her finger. Mr. Alvarez tells Leo to give her space. Later, at the gift shop, Camila chooses a postcard and keeps it flat. Leo picks a model kit and shakes the box. Camila flinches, then folds her hands in her pockets. Based on the passage, what can be inferred about Camila at the museum?

A local newspaper reports on the annual River Lantern Night downtown. The event begins before sunset in the park. Volunteers set up trash bins beside every snack booth. A stage sits near the river, but the music stays soft. Families spread blankets and share thermoses of cocoa. A sign near the water says, “Lanterns must be paper only.” At a craft tent, kids fold lanterns with help from older neighbors. The helpers show small steps and let kids try again. A firefighter stands nearby and chats with parents. When a gust of wind blows, two volunteers hold down the tent poles. Later, the mayor gives a short speech and thanks the cleanup crew first. A group from the middle school science club demonstrates how to keep wax away from the river. They use metal trays to catch drips. People line up patiently and wait for their turn. No one pushes toward the water. When a lantern tips, a teen quickly scoops it out with a net. He carries it to a bin without being asked. At the end, many families stay behind to pick up litter. The reporter notes that the riverbank looks cleaner than before. Based on the passage, what is implied about what this community values?
