4. Suppose a class has public visibility. In this class we define a protected method. Which of the following statements is correct?
(a) This method is only accessible from inside the class itself and from inside all subclasses.
(b) In a class, you can not declare methods with a lower visibility than the visibility of the class in which it is defined.

6. Given the following piece of code:
public interface Guard{
void doYourJob();
}
abstract public class Dog implements Guard{}

int x = 0;
Person p = new Person();
new Test().doIt(x, p);
System.out.println(x + " " + p.number);
}
}
What is the result?
(a) 0 8
(b) 5 0
(c) 0 0
(d) 5 8
11. Given the following piece of code:
class SalaryCalculationException extends Exception{}
class Person{
public void calculateSalary() throws SalaryCalculationException {
//...
throw new SalaryCalculationException();
//...
}
}
class Company{
public void paySalaries(){
new Person().calculateSalary();
}
}
Which of the following statements is correct? (2 answers)

(d) This code will compile if we add throws SalaryCalculationException in the signature of method paySalaries().
12. Which of the following statements regarding static methods are correct? (2 answers)
(a) static methods are difficult tmaintain, because you can not change their implementa-tion.
(b) static methods can be called using an object reference tan object of the class in which this method is defined.
(c) static methods are always public, because they are defined at class-level.
(d) static methods dnot have direct access tnon-static methods which are defined inside the same class.
13. Given the following piece of code:
class Person{
public void talk(){}
}
public class Test{

17. Which of the following statements about events are correct? (2 answers)
(a) Event objects are placed on a Queue, where they are fetched by subscribers (objects of classes which implement the interface Subscriber).
(b) The listener of an event must implement the method public void listen(EventObject obj).
(c) Each event object must be an object of a subclass of EventObject.
(d) Each event listener can investigate about the source of an event by calling the method getSource() on the event object.
18. How can you serialize an object?
(a) You have tmake the class of the object implement the interface Serializable.
(b) You must call the method serializeObject()(which is inherited from class Object) on the object.
(c) You should call the static method serialize(Object obj) from class Serializer, with as argument the object tbe serialized.
(d) You don’t have tdanything, because all objects are serializable by default.
19. Which statements about Iare correct (2 answers)?
