Sure! I'd be happy to help you with your social civics pre-exam questions. Here are the answers to the questions you've asked:

1. Who is responsible for running a city under the council-manager program?
Answer: (B) A hired administrator who runs the city's business affairs.

The council-manager program is a form of local government where the city council hires a professional city manager or administrator to handle the day-to-day operations of the city. The mayor and the city council still have important roles, but the city manager typically has the authority to make decisions regarding the administration and management of the city.

2. What is the job of the county assessor?
Answer: (C) To determine the value of property in a county.

The county assessor is responsible for assessing the value of properties within a county for tax purposes. They determine the assessed value, which is used to calculate property taxes. The county assessor typically conducts assessments periodically and may also handle other tasks related to property assessment and taxation.

3. Which form of government increased its authority after the Civil War?
Answer: (C) National government.

After the Civil War, there was a significant increase in the authority and power of the national government in the United States. This shift was primarily a result of the Reconstruction period, during which the federal government took a greater role in enforcing civil rights, implementing policies for the rebuilding of the South, and expanding its authority over issues related to citizenship and equal protection.

4. The ability to refuse certain parts of a bill without having to veto the entire bill is known as a(n):
Answer: (A) Line item veto.

The line item veto refers to the power of an executive (such as a governor or president) to veto specific provisions or sections of a bill while allowing the rest of the bill to become law. This authority enables the executive to reject particular provisions they disagree with without rejecting the entire bill.

5. A group of individuals gathered together to help determine if a crime has occurred when there is death is called the:
Answer: (C) Coroner's jury.

A coroner's jury is a group of individuals who are called to help determine the cause and circumstances of a person's death when it is unclear or suspicious. The coroner's jury consists of citizens from the local community, who review evidence, witness testimonies, and other relevant information to make a determination about the cause of death.

6. Which group did writers of the United States' Constitution believe would have the most power in government?
Answer: (B) State government.

The writers of the United States' Constitution, also known as the framers, believed in a balance of power between the national government and state governments. However, they initially placed a significant emphasis on the autonomy and power of state governments. They believed that state governments would be closer to the people and more responsive to their needs, making them the primary authority in many areas of governance. This belief was reflected in the structure and provisions of the U.S. Constitution, including the Tenth Amendment, which reserves powers not delegated to the national government to the states or the people.
