The terminology is used by economists and in popular culture. A free market requires protection of property rights, but no regulation, no subsidization, no single monetary system, and no governmental monopolies. It is the opposite of a controlled market, where the government regulates prices or how property is used. The theory holds that within the ideal free market, property rights are voluntarily exchanged at a price arranged solely by the mutual consent of sellers and buyers. By definition, buyers and sellers do not coerce each other, in the sense that they obtain each other's property rights without the use of physical force, threat of physical force, or fraud, nor are they coerced by a third party (such as by government via transfer payments) and they engage in trade simply because they both consent and believe that what they are getting is worth more than or as much as what they give up. Price is the result of buying and selling decisions en masse as described by the law of supply and demand. Free market economics is closely associated with laissez-faire economic philosophy, which advocates approximating this condition in the real world by mostly confining government intervention in economic matters to regulating against force and fraud among market participants. Some free market advocates oppose taxation as well, claiming that the market is more efficient at providing all valuable services of which defense and law are no exception, that such services can be provided without direct taxation and that consent would be the basis of political legitimacy making it a morally consistent system.

These questions are designed to test your reading comprehension skills on a basic and more advanced level. Read the passages below and mark the letter of the most correct answer. There are no trick questions. Romans 7:14-25: We know that the law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin. I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. For what I do is not the good I want to do; no, the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing. Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it. So I find this law at work: When I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God's law; but I see another law at work in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within my members. What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death? Thanks be to God—through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself in my mind am a slave to God's law, but in the sinful nature a slave to the law of sin." Answer True or False: I have read the above passage.

He wants to do good, but he keeps on doing evil. He feels stifled by the law. Following God has turned out to be very difficult for him. He is dying, and he feels like a prisoner in his body. Question 24 Selected Answer: Answers: In this passage, does Paul, the author of Romans, describe the law as good? Yes, he says it is "spiritual" and "good." Yes, he says it is "spiritual" and "good." No, he thinks it has made him a slave. No, the law makes him do evil, even when he wants to do good. Sort of -- sometimes it is good, and sometimes it is bad.

Question 30 Refer to the paragraph below in order to answer the following four questions. In censorship, silence is not always golden. The word "censorship” means to silence, limit, or repress information, whether in the media, through music, artistic expression, political, social, theological, or educational information, not within the norms of a particular mode of thought concerning those particular standards that they each support. Rather, it is the control of information showing itself in the form of a boycott, embargo, injunction, restriction, and last but not least, “silence.” Censorship is not permission, a green light, nor an allowance of complete self-expression. In today’s world, the computer’s phrases: “to delete”, “empty recycle bin” or even “erase from the hard drive” could mean censorship. Sometimes people confuse censorship with the thought of limiting it to only a couple of types or that censorship is always valid or deserving. Others think it only comes through a dictatorship type of government. A few examples would be a court-imposed gag order: a judicial judge signs a paper to put a hush order on the media, regarding information that can compromise a case. Still another example, would be by taking the 5th Amendment, individuals can choose to remain silent because the information may only serve to incriminate them.

Question 35 Read the paragraph below to answer the following four questions: The wedding process is often trying; however, during my wedding planning, the easiest and most essential aspect was choosing my gown. As soon as my husband proposed, I began purchasing wedding magazines for ideas, but most importantly, I used the magazines in search of dress options. I narrowed my options down to local stores, which had gowns closest to my style. Because department-sized wedding shops can be intimidating, I made an appointment at a small, bridal boutique. I was allowed to choose six gowns to take to the fitting room.

Many stores sell only larger sized dresses; therefore, I had a hard time imagining what I would look like in them. Question 40 Read the paragraph below to answer the following four questions. My life after marriage is a far cry from what it was before I married. As a single teenager and the daughter of an evangelistic minister, traveling was a way of life.

Once upon a time, I knew tens of thousands of people in all the churches we visited; meeting new people as we traveled back to these places yearly. Unfortunately, in my husband’s home town, I have found it difficult to even make new friends or meet new people. Prior, traveling meant that I was surrounded by people all the time. Currently, I spend most of my days alone, seldom leaving my bedroom except to do chores or spend time with the kids. As a minister and minister’s daughter, I found myself in church several days a week; ministering in each service to one degree or another. In my husband’s home church I am seldom asked to minister, yet I still receive calls from time to time asking me to minister in other churches. I do not like traveling alone so I seldom accept many offers to minister outside my home church. This change of lifestyle is the hardest transition of my adult life; from the life I had to the life I have. Answer True or False: I have read the above paragraph.

Question 45 Read the paragraph below to answer the following four questions. There are basically three different types of boats, which can be somewhat overwhelming to a potential first time boat buyer. The intended purpose a boat will be used for should help determine the type of boat to be purchased. Stream boats are usually small, light, and easy to maneuver from place to place. Most stream boats require only one operator and are typically smaller making them the simplest to use. The next choice one might consider is an inland boat; while an inland boat might be larger than a stream boat, their size is still more maneuverable in smaller bodies of water and can be operated easily by one or two operators in most cases. Most inland boats maintain a somewhat shallower draw (draw is the amount of water required under a boat for it to float) allowing them to maneuver in and out of shallower water. Finally, the last category is the deep-sea boat class; these boats are made for the big, open water and are capable of withstanding much larger waves. In most applications, a deep-sea boat can carry more passengers and cargo than the smaller inland variations, making it the ultimate camper or getaway. Boating is a great time, even when the fish are not biting pick the right size and kind of boat and the fun is increased. So, to avoid feeling in over your head when buying a boat for the first time, make certain to weigh the options of the different classifications of boats; the first time boat buyer needs to assess the facts and various models to make the best selection. 0 out of 0 points Review Test Submission: English Assessment – 201840 Fall... https://learn.liberty.edu/webapps/assessment/review/review.jsp?atte... 26 of 40 10/1/18, 11:36 PMSelected Answer: True Answers: True False Answer True or False: I have read the above paragraph.

Essay: Marriage is Sacred (1) Couples should understand that when they marry they are entering into the most sacred of institutions established by God; it is a Holy covenant, not to be taken lightly. In addition, it is the first covenant established between God and mankind. Until this day, it seals their relationship until death; therefore, the marriage covenant produces oneness that honors God, creating a 0 out of 0 points Review Test Submission: English Assessment – 201840 Fall... https://learn.liberty.edu/webapps/assessment/review/review.jsp?atte... 36 of 40 10/1/18, 11:36 PMbinding contract in his eyes. (2) God wants marriage to reflect the church’s relationship with Jesus Christ because the church is the bride, preparing to meet the bridegroom. When couples develop intimacy with God, it also strengthens the marriage. Per Jennifer Baker of the Forest Institute of Professional Psychology, there is currently a 50% divorce rate in marriages in and outside of the church. This is evidence that couples no longer take their commitment and vows seriously, and it is almost impossible to honor vows without acknowledging the sacredness of the marriage contract. Consequently, the marriage covenant brings strength to relationships helping them to endure. (3) The covenant of marriage also protects the family unit. It is the vehicle that allows sexual expression not provided in other unions. The children born of couples, who are in covenant, reap the benefits of their parent’s faithfulness to each other and to God. These couples also insulate themselves and their families from the enemy that would destroy homes and ruin relationships. The odds of couples committed to covenant relations, committing adultery, divorcing or separating is not as great as those who are not committed. (4) The marriage covenant is the most import contract entered into by man. Dennis Rainey, a well known Christian minister, writes that “For the past two years I have had a growing concern that the Christian community has passively watched the 'dummying down' of the marriage covenant. Marriage has become little more than an upgraded social contract between two people-not a holy covenant between a man and a woman and their God for a lifetime.” Couples, who are in covenant marriages, provide stability for their families and communities; it has more impact on community than Review Test Submission: English Assessment – 201840 Fall... https://learn.liberty.edu/webapps/assessment/review/review.jsp?atte... 37 of 40 10/1/18, 11:36 PMSelected Answer: True Answers: True False anyone could ever imagine because the covenant is the cornerstone for all relationships. (5) The scriptures are clear about marriage being holy in God’s sight; consequently, married couples must take their vows serious if the current trend in divorce, in and outside the church, is to change. Acknowledging this will greatly impact and reverse the current culture and views on marriage. Because God so loved us, he designed the sanctity of marriage for our protection from generation to generation. Answer True or False: I have read the above essay.
