Frank Zappa reference in Standardized Test

My daughter told me there was a reference to Frank Zappa on a grammar related test question. This was on the Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) test for 7th grade, which is a standardized test in compliance with the No Child Left Behind act. My daughter can't remember the context of the question. Has anyone else heard this?

how can anyone ever test someone on the gift that evryone has in life. i am a very good drummer, there is no school test for that. i am also able to learn better from just listening to people. instead i was made to "take notes" and when i did i missed half of what i was taught. i personally think our education system is very messed up. the government spends more money on cops, military, themselves, and other useless stuff. and lets not forget 'The war on drugs" which has do nothing but put drug users in jail for pot and turning drug users into criminals. i personally think our government should be mad to take a pay cut for every 100,000 out of work, maybe they will get off there a***s then and do something abotu the country.

If I had been introduced to Frank's music earlier in life I believe it would have had a profound impact on my life. Frank's philosophy has changed me.

I heard that they once took Gary Glitter's work off of a school music test on music appreciation critique in the U.K. because they didnt want to seperate the art from the man's private life but that was a different story...

I referenced Frank in my Sociology exam about "new social movements" about 2 years ago, didn't get too shabby a mark!
