travels away from
a source, such as
the sun.
A. The light beam
spreads out in
separate beams.

This is an
alternative
response test
since the
questions consist
of declarative
sentences with the
option of
answering true or
false.
The majority of
standardized tests,
including state
examinations and
most commercial
achievement
assessments,
consist largely of
multiple-choice
items. A quarter,
a half, or even
more "openended" (or
"constructedresponse") items,
mainly short
answer questions,
appear on a few
state
examinations.
