Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to<br />
indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42.<br />
In the United States, presidential elections are held in years evenly divisible by four<br />
(1888, 1900, 1964, etc.). Since 1840, American presidents elected in years ending with zero<br />
have died in office, with one exception. William H. Harrison, the man who served the shortest<br />
term, died of pneumonia only several weeks after his inauguration.<br />
Abraham Lincoln was one of four presidents who were assassinated. He was elected in 1860,<br />
and his untimely death came just five years later. James A. Garfield, a former Union army<br />
general from Ohio, was shot during his first year in office (1881) by a man to whom he<br />
wouldn't give a job. While in his second term of office (1901), William McKinley, another<br />
Ohioan, attended the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, New York. During the reception, he<br />
was assassinated while shaking hands with some of the guests. John F. Kennedy was<br />
assassinated in 1963 in Dallas only three years after his election.<br />
Three years after his election in 1920, Warren G, Harding died in office. Although it was never<br />
proved, many believe he was poisoned. Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected four times (1932,<br />
1936, 1940 and 1944), the only man to serve so long a term. He had contracted polio in 1921 and<br />
eventually died of the illness in 1945.<br />
Ronald Reagan, who was elected in 1980 and reelected four years later, suffered an<br />
assassination attempt but did not succumb to the assassin's bullets. He was the first to break the<br />
long chain of unfortunate events.<br />
