Most Americans have at least some daily interaction with people who do not share their race or ethnicity,

interacting with racial or ethnic minorities and nonwhites interacting with minority groups other than their
own.

Among blacks, 26% say they have a lot of interaction with people who are Hispanic, while one-in-five

Hispanics say they have frequent interaction with people who are black. About one in-ten whites, blacks
and Hispanics say they interact with Asians a lot in their daily life.
A majority of Asians say they have frequent daily interaction with whites, more than the share of blacks and
Hispanics who say the same. About one-in-four Asians say they have a lot of interaction with people who
are Hispanic and 15% say the same about people who are black.
Asians are less likely than whites, blacks and Hispanics to say they have a lot of interaction with people in
their own group. The extent to which Americans interact with various racial or ethnic groups reflects, at
least in part, the shares of each group in the population.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42.
There are several ways to measure how often men and women appear in news photos. One way is to think
about all the photos together as making up one big crowd of people and estimating what share are women
versus men. Women made up 33% of all the 53,067 individuals identified in news post images, while men
made up the other 67%.
Another way to look at the data is to examine the mix of people who appear in each image. Across the
22,342 posts with photos containing identifiable human faces, more than half of them exclusively showed
men, while less than a quarter showed exclusively women. The remaining images show at least one man and
one woman.
All 17 news outlets included in the study showed more men than women in news images on Facebook
during the study period. The share of individuals who were identified as women by the model ranges from
25% to 46%, by outlet.
While these findings are striking, there is no perfect benchmark or “true ratio” for how often men and
women should be portrayed in news images on social media. Yes, the U.S. population is divided nearly in
half, male versus female. But, for example, all the representational coverage of professional football teams
would return results overwhelmingly dominated by male faces. Coverage of the U.S. Senate – currently 25%
female – might do the same. In addition, the analysis did not address whether the content of the news stories
that accompanied the images was more focused on men or women.
The analysis also reveals other ways that men are more prominent in news images on Facebook. In photos
that showed two or more people, men tend to outnumber women. And men’s faces take up more space when
shown, with the average male face being 10% larger than the average female face across all photos with
people.
