AP free response questions and answer keys

Here are the scoring rubrics and/or model answers for the free response questions on the quiz you took Thursday for D block and G block (the answer key for the question about Zoey buying a car starts on page 6 - I edited out some of the terms and replaced them with the following:  Prosocial behavior could include choosing a hybrid car because it's good for the environment.  Prosocial does not have to do with simply interacting with others, so this example needed to include something about a positive contribution to the world or a socially responsible behavior or decision.  Evolutionary psychology needed to include something about Zoe wanting to behave in a way that ensured her survival and therefore her ability to reproduce, e.g. choosing a larger car that was large and therefore safe).
