Shade Trees for Energy Efficiency
Solar heat absorbed through windows and roofs increases cooling costs, and incorporating shade trees helps reduce this heat gain. Shading and transpiration (the process by which a plant actively moves and releases water vapor) from trees can reduce surrounding air temperatures by as much as 6°F. Because cool air settles near the ground, air temperatures directly under trees can be as much as 25°F cooler than those above nearby blacktop surfaces.
Designing landscapes for effective use of trees requires knowledge of the size, shape, and location of the moving tree’s shadow. To provide continuous shade or to block heavy winds, use dense evergreen trees or shrubs. To block solar heat in the summer but to let much of it in during the winter, use deciduous trees. Planting deciduous trees with high, spreading crowns (i.e., leaves and branches) to the south side of a home provides maximum summertime roof shading. Trees with crowns lower to the ground are more appropriate to the west, where shade is needed from lower afternoon sun angles.
To ensure lasting performance of energy-saving landscaping, use plant species that are adapted to the local climate. Native species, those which occur naturally in the area, are valued for their hardiness. Because they have thrived in that climate over time without human intervention, they require little maintenance once established and avoid the dangers of invasive species.
Planting trees properly is critical to the long-term success of your energy-conservation project and can raise your property value by up to five percent. Start by selecting the location for your planting. This will dictate the mature size of the tree and its needed planting space. Make sure you purchase a quality tree with a healthy root system (10 inches of container width per inch of trunk diameter at six inches above the soil line). Dig the hole to the depth of the root ball, and no deeper. Use native soil to backfill and wood chips for mulch. Staking should not be needed unless the trunk is over three inches in diameter.
Based on the documents shown, hardiness refers to the:
- average trunk strength of the tree species.
- likelihood that the tree will grow well.
- average crown diameter of the tree species.
- likelihood that the tree will provide the needed shade.
- percentage of solar heat absorbed by the tree.
Based on the provided text, the correct answer is B. likelihood that the tree will grow well.
Reasoning: The text states, "Native species... are valued for their hardiness. Because they have thrived in that climate over time without human intervention, they require little maintenance once established..." In this context, hardiness refers to the plant's ability to survive and thrive well in its local climate.

You work for Greene-Mann Landscaping Company. A client is looking for a tree to shade her roof. According to the document shown, to help her determine what size tree to plant, you first need information about:
- the location where she wants to plant the tree.
- what percentage she wants her property value to increase.
- how much energy she wants to conserve.
- which direction her house faces.
- her preference for native or non-native tree species.
Based on the provided document, the correct answer is A. the location where she wants to plant the tree.
Reasoning: The text explicitly states under the planting section: "Start by selecting the location for your planting. This will dictate the mature size of the tree and its needed planting space."

You work for Greene-Mann Landscaping Company. A prospective client sends you the e-mail below:
I would like to plant a tree in my backyard. We like to eat outside, and in the summer, the hot sun burns down on our deck at dinnertime. I would like a tree that will be quick and easy to grow.
Based on the document shown, what would you recommend for this client?
- An evergreen tree planted on the windy side of the house
- An evergreen tree planted on the south side of the house
- A deciduous tree planted on the windy side of the house
- A deciduous tree planted on the south side of the house
- A deciduous tree planted on the west side of the house
Based on the provided document, the correct answer is E. A deciduous tree planted on the west side of the house.
Reasoning:
Tree Type: The client needs shade during the hot summer dinnertime (afternoon sun). Deciduous trees are recommended to "block solar heat in the summer but to let much of it in during the winter."
Location: The text specifies that "Trees with crowns lower to the ground are more appropriate to the west, where shade is needed from lower afternoon sun angles," which aligns with evening or dinnertime sun exposure.

Paper & Pens & Posters
Notice of Workstation Replacement
Timing and Procedures
Paper & Pens & Posters’ Management Information Systems (MIS) department will undertake a firm-wide upgrade of computer workstations over the course of five weeks. Please read the following instructions carefully. The upgrades will begin the first of next month. Due to the age of the existing workstations, they will be completely replaced. This will cause some disruption in normal work and the need for care in the preservation of existing software and data. This memo is intended to outline the timing and procedures for upgrade.
Workstation replacement will occur over five weeks. Week 1: Finance and Public Affairs Departments. Week 2: Marketing & Human Resources departments. Week 3: Research and Development department. Week 4: Service and Customer-Relations departments. Week 5: Upper-Level Management. Please call MIS if you work in one of these departments and will not be available during the specified week.
In the week prior to the week in which your department is scheduled for workstation replacement, please do the following: (1) Complete the SIQ sent to you with this memo. This will list which software packages you wish to retain when you get your new workstation. Then, email the completed SIQ to MIS. (2) Using the Folder Manager software accessory currently on your workstation, copy all data that you wish to preserve from your local hard drive to the network (F) drive. MIS staff will assist you with this, if necessary. They will also transfer the data back to your new local workstation after the upgrade, if desired. (3) Delete or transfer to CDs any non-work-related files and other unnecessary files from your local workstation. It will be very difficult to retrieve files from your old workstation after it is removed from your workspace; therefore MIS asks your cooperation in carefully following the procedures outlined here.
You work in upper-level management. What week should you expect to have your workstation replaced?
- Week 1
- Week 2
- Week 3

Based on the policy provided, growers must demonstrate knowledge and use of safe food-handling practices, and the text outlines alternative ways to prove compliance (such as GAP certification, or allowing onsite visits, completing a checklist, and providing a signed letter) if they are not certified. Because certification is only one of multiple acceptable methods to show compliance, obtaining certification is not strictly required. Instead, compliance fundamentally means adhering to and following guidelines for safe food handling.
Correct Answer: C. following guidelines.

- complete at least 24 hours of continuing education.
- display your certificate of license.
- pass a board examination.
