Verbal Reasoning Practice Subtest Instructions
In this section of the exam, you will be presented with 11 passages to read, each associated with 4 questions.
Some questions assess critical reasoning skills, requiring candidates to make inferences and draw conclusions from information. You will need to read the passage of text carefully. You will then be presented with a question or incomplete statement and four response options. You are required to pick the best or most suitable response.
For other questions your task is to read each passage of text carefully and then decide whether the statement provided follows logically.
There are three answer options you can choose from:
True: On the basis of the information in the passage, the statement is true.
False: On the basis of the information in the passage, the statement is false.
Can’t Tell: You cannot tell from the information in the passage whether the statement is true or false.
Candidates will only be able to select one response.
It is in your best interest to answer all questions as there is no penalty for guessing. All unanswered questions will be scored as incorrect.

The Aztec calendar is the calendar system that was used by the Aztecs as well as other Pre-Columbian peoples of central Mexico. It is one of the Mesoamerican calendars, sharing the basic structure of calendars from throughout ancient Mesoamerica.
The calendar consisted of a 365-day calendar cycle and a 260-day ritual cycle. These two cycles together formed a 52-year “century,” sometimes called the “calendar round”. The calendar cycle is considered to be the agricultural calendar, since it is based on the sun, and the ritual cycle is considered to be the sacred calendar.
The calendric year may have begun at some point in the distant past with the first appearance of the Pleiades asterism in the east immediately before the dawn light. In contrast, early Spanish chroniclers recorded it being celebrated in proximity with the Spring equinox.
The almanac year comprised of 260 days, each of which was assigned a date by intermeshing one of 20 day-signs, represented graphically with a glyph, and a number from 1 to 13, represented by dots so that no two days in the cycle could be confused. The almanac year was thus made up of 20 13-day weeks.
Explanation
The correct answer is C. From the text, we can see that it says ‘other Pre-Columbian peoples’, implying that the Aztecs were Pre-Columbian. The other options are not supported by the passage.
