Surrounded by the ancient city of Rome, Vatican City is an
independent nation on the west bank of the Tiber River.
Given that all of the choices are true, which one best supports the sentence’s claim
about Vatican City’s status as an independent nation?
A. NO CHANGE
B. with an interesting past.
C. with its own government, banking system, postal service, and army.
D. that has to import most of its supplies, even such necessities as food and water.
ACT Bellringer Explanation
The best answer is C. It informs the reader that Vatican
City has "its own government, banking system, postal
service," which is supporting evidence that Vatican City
operates as "an independent nation.“
Skill: relevance
The best answer is NOT A because Vatican City's location on the Tiber
River is irrelevant to the point that Vatican City is an independent
nation.
The best answer is NOT B. Even if Vatican City has "an interesting past,"
this information is not evidence of its independence.
The best answer is NOT D because the need to import supplies, food,
and water could occur whether a city was independent or not.

independent nation on the west bank of the Tiber River.
Given that all of the choices are true, which one best supports the sentence’s claim
about Vatican City’s status as an independent nation?
A. NO CHANGE
B. with an interesting past.
C. with its own government, banking system, postal service, and army.
D. that has to import most of its supplies, even such necessities as food and water.
ACT Bellringer Explanation
The best answer is C. It informs the reader that Vatican
City has "its own government, banking system, postal
service," which is supporting evidence that Vatican City
operates as "an independent nation.“
**Skill: relevance AND/OR supporting evidence
The best answer is NOT A because Vatican City's location on the Tiber
River is irrelevant to the point that Vatican City is an independent
nation.
The best answer is NOT B. Even if Vatican City has "an interesting past,"
this information is not evidence of its independence.
The best answer is NOT D because the need to import supplies, food,
and water could occur whether a city was independent or not.
