Test #4
Imagine that someone has taken five cards out of a shuffled
deck of playing cards. Now the rest of the cards (47) are called
off to you just once. Could you tell, by memory, which five were
not called, or were missing? Let's try it. Look down this list of
forty-seven cards only once. After you've done so, take a pencil
and jot down the names of the five cards that you think are
missing. You must not look at the book while you are writing.
Don't take more than four and a half minutes to look at the list
of cards. I will ask you to take this test again, after you have
read and studied Chapter 10. Give yourself 20 points for every
missing card you list correctly.

names. See if you can't give the right name to the right picture.
I'll remind you to take this test again, after you've read through
