“The most beautiful experience we can have is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion that stands at the cradle of true art and true science.” Albert Einstein

Students, please note that some of these statements are in the false format, but most of the test questions from chapter 6 are selected from this study guide. If you complete the study guide, it will help a lot on the test. Have your study guide by your side when you take the test. Some of these questions can be answered exactly as they appear on the test, others are simple guides as to the nature of the question (they are rather vague by design but do give hints as to the area you should study).
