Q 2. Harvard and MIT shared a similar approach to education when they were 
founded.
Meaning: 
Do Harvard and MIT share a similar approach to education right from the start?
Answer: 
False
Part of the passage:
 
While Harvard stuck to the English model of a classical education, 
with its emphasis on Latin and Greek, MIT looked to the German system of learning 
based on research and hands-on experimentation. 
Q 3. The school motto was suggested by a former MIT student.
Meaning: 
Did former MIT student come up with the school motto?
Answer: 
Not Given
Part of the passage:
 
This down-to-earth quality is enshrined in the school motto, Mens 
et manus – Mind and hand – as well as its logo, which shows a gowned scholar standing 
beside an ironmonger bearing a hammer and anvil. That symbiosis of intellect and crafts-
manship still suffuses the institute’s classrooms, where students are not so much taught 
as engaged and inspired. 
Explanation: 
There is information in the text about who suggested this motto
