The idiot who came up with those questions was probably one the payroll of one of the big testing services - all the states pretty much contract with the same folks to provide their tests. And the test was likely reviewed at several levels by educational professionals, including a bunch from Massachusetts.
One of my teachers said it best, when he said the standardized tests were very good at figuring out whether students were at least as smart as the testers, but, then, what kind of fools choose to write tests for a living?
The idiot who pushing mandating the use of standardized tests to replace the teachers' judgment, well, you guys will be living down the last eight years of that guy for a while.
