It is widely assumed that people need to engage in intellectual activities such as solving crossword puzzles or mathematics problems in order to maintain mental sharpness as they age. in fact, however, simply talking to other people—that is, participating in social interaction, which engages many mental and perceptual skills—suffices. evidence to this effect comes from a study showing that the more social contact people report, the better their mental skills. which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the force of the evidence cited? (a) as people grow older, they are often advised to keep exercising their physical and mental capacities in order to maintain or improve them. (b) many medical conditions and treatments that adversely affect a person's mental sharpness also tend to increase that person's social isolation. (c) many people are proficient both in social interactions and in solving mathematical problems. (d) the study did not itself collect data but analyzed data bearing on the issue from prior studies. (e) the tasks evaluating mental sharpness for which data were compiled by the study were more akin to mathematics problems than to conversation.

Which of these describes a social effect of the civil war? a) fields were left unplanted because the slaves had been freed and much of the male population was unavailable to plant or harvest crops. b) over 600,000 men died, mostly because of the lack of food, clean water, and hygienic medical practices. c) after the emancipation proclamation was issued, african americans were allowed to join the union army. d) lincoln’s assassination after the surrender caused a disruption in the rebuilding of the nation.
