文章：

    In 1675, Louis XIV established the Parisian seamstresses' guild, the first independent all-female guild created in over 200 years. Guild members could make and sell women's and children's clothing, but were prohibited from producing men's clothing or dresses for court women. Tailors resented the ascension of seamstresses to guild status; seamstresses, meanwhile, were impatient with the remaining restrictions on their right to clothe women.

    The conflict between the guilds was not purely economic, however. A 1675 police report indicated that since so many seamstresses were already working illegally, the tailors were unlikely to suffer additional economic damage because of the seamstresses' incorporation. Moreover, guild membership held very different meanings for tailors and seamstresses. To the tailors, their status as guild members overlapped with their role as heads of household, and entitled them to employ as seamstresses female family members who did not marry outside the trade. The seamstresses, however, viewed guild membership as a mark of independence from the patriarchal family. Their guild was composed not of family units but of individual women who enjoyed unusual legal and economic privileges. At the conflict's center was the issue of whether tailors' female relatives should be identified as family members protected by the tailors' guild or as individuals under the jurisdiction of the seamstresses' guild.

题目：

According to the passage, one source of dissatisfaction for Parisian seamstresses after the establishment of the seamstresses' guild was that

选项:

A、seamstresses were not allowed to make and sell clothing for all women
B、tailors continued to have the exclusive legal right to clothe men
C、seamstresses who were relatives of tailors were prevented from becoming members of the seamstresses' guild
D、rivalry between individual seamstresses increased, thus hindering their ability to compete with the tailors for business
E、seamstresses were not allowed to accept male tailors as members of the guild

A

题目：

Previously, Autoco designed all of its cars itself and then contracted with specialized parts suppliers to build parts according to its specifications. Now it plans to include its suppliers in designing the parts they are to build. Since many parts suppliers have more designers with specialized experience than Autoco has, Autoco expects this shift to reduce the overall time and cost of the design of its next new car.

Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports Autoco’s expectation?

选项:

A、When suppliers provide their own designs, Autoco often needs to modify its overall design.
B、In order to provide designs for Autoco, several of the parts suppliers will have to add to their existing staffs of designers.
C、Parts and services provided by outside suppliers account for more than 50 percent of Autoco’s total costs.
D、When suppliers built parts according to specifications provided by Autoco, the suppliers competed to win contracts.
E、Most of Autoco’s suppliers have on hand a wide range of previously prepared parts designs that can readily be modified for a new car.

Line         It is an odd but indisputable fact that the
  seventeenth-century English women who are
  generally regarded as among the forerunners of
  modern feminism are almost all identified with the
(5) Royalist side in the conflict between Royalists and
  Parliamentarians known as the English Civil Wars.
  Since Royalist ideology is often associated with the
  radical patriarchalism of seventeenth-century
  political theorist Robert Filmer—a patriarchalism
(10) that equates family and kingdom and asserts the
  divinely ordained absolute power of the king and,
  by analogy, of the male head of the household—
  historians have been understandably puzzled by the
  fact that Royalist women wrote the earliest
(15) extended criticisms of the absolute subordination
  of women in marriage and the earliest systematic
  assertions of women’s rational and moral equality
  with men. Some historians have questioned the
  facile equation of Royalist ideology with Filmerian
(20) patriarchalism; and indeed, there may have been
  no consistent differences between Royalists and
  Parliamentarians on issues of family organization
  and women’s political rights, but in that case one
  would expect early feminists to be equally divided
(25) between the two sides.
       Catherine Gallagher argues that Royalism
  engendered feminism because the ideology of
  absolute monarchy provided a transition to an
  ideology of the absolute self. She cites the example
(30) of the notoriously eccentric author Margaret
  Cavendish (1626–1673), duchess of Newcastle.
  Cavendish claimed to be as ambitious as any
  woman could be, but knowing that as a woman she
  was excluded from the pursuit of power in the real
(35) world, she resolved to be mistress of her own
  world, the “immaterial world” that any person can
  create within her own mind—and, as a writer, on
  paper. In proclaiming what she called her
  “singularity,” Cavendish insisted that she was a
(40) self-sufficient being within her mental empire, the
  center of her own subjective universe rather than a
  satellite orbiting a dominant male planet. In
  justifying this absolute singularity, Cavendish
  repeatedly invoked the model of the absolute
(45) monarch, a figure that became a metaphor for the
  self-enclosed, autonomous nature of the individual
  person. Cavendish’s successors among early
  feminists retained her notion of woman’s sovereign
  self, but they also sought to break free from the
(50) complete political and social isolation that her
  absolute singularity entailed.


题目：

The passage suggests which of the following about the seventeenth-century English women mentioned in line 2?

选项:

A、Their status as forerunners of modern feminism is not entirely justified.
B、They did not openly challenge the radical patriarchalism of Royalist Filmerian ideology.
C、Cavendish was the first among these women to criticize women’s subordination in marriage and assert women’s equality with men.
D、Their views on family organization and women’s political rights were diametrically opposed to those of both Royalist and Parliamentarian ideology.
E、Historians would be less puzzled if more of them were identified with the Parliamentarian side in the English Civil Wars.

E

文章：

In countries where automobile insurance includes compensation for whiplash injuries sustained in automobile accidents, reports of having suffered such injuries are twice as frequent as they are in countries where whiplash is not covered. Presently, no objective test for whiplash exists, so it is true that spurious reports of whiplash injuries cannot be readily identified. Nevertheless, these facts do not warrant the conclusion drawn by some commentators, that in the countries with the higher rates of reported whiplash injuries, half of the reported cases are spurious. Clearly, in countries where automobile insurance does not include compensation for whiplash, people often have little incentive to report whiplash injuries that they actually have suffered.

In the argument given, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles?

选项:

A、The first is a claim that the argument disputes; the second is a conclusion that has been based on that claimThe first is a claim that has been used to support a conclusion that the argument accepts; the second is that conclusion. 
B、The first is evidence that has been used to support a conclusion for which the argument provides further evidence; the second is the main conclusion of the argument.
C、The first is a finding whose implications are at issue in the argument; the second is a claim presented in order to argue against deriving certain implications from that fi nding.
D、The first is a finding whose accuracy is evaluated in the argument; the second is evidence presented to establish that the fi nding is accurate.

Line         Among the myths taken as fact by the
  environmental managers of most corporations is
  the belief that environmental regulations affect all
  competitors in a given industry uniformly. In reality,
(5) regulatory costs—and therefore compliance—
  fall unevenly, economically disadvantaging some
  companies and benefiting others. For example, a
  plant situated near a number of larger
  noncompliant competitors is less likely to attract
(10) the attention of local regulators than is an isolated
  plant, and less attention means lower costs.
       Additionally, large plants can spread compliance
  costs such as waste treatment across a larger
  revenue base; on the other hand, some smaller
(15) plants may not even be subject to certain
  provisions such as permit or reporting
  requirements by virtue of their size. Finally, older
  production technologies often continue to generate
  toxic wastes that were not regulated when the
(20) technology was first adopted. New regulations
  have imposed extensive compliance costs on
  companies still using older industrial coal-fired
  burners that generate high sulfur dioxide and
  nitrogen oxide outputs, for example, whereas new
(25) facilities generally avoid processes that would
  create such waste products. By realizing that they
  have discretion and that not all industries are
  affected equally by environmental regulation,
  environmental managers can help their companies
(30) to achieve a competitive edge by anticipating
  regulatory pressure and exploring all possibilities for
  addressing how changing regulations will affect their
  companies specifically.


题目：

The primary purpose of the passage is to

选项:

A、address a widespread environmental management problem and suggest possible solutions
B、illustrate varying levels of compliance with environmental regulation among different corporations
C、describe the various alternatives to traditional methods of environmental management
D、advocate increased corporate compliance with environmental regulation
E、correct a common misconception about the impact of environmental regulations

文章：

Most farmers attempting to control slugs and snails turn to baited slug poison, or molluscicide, which usually consists of a bran pellet containing either methiocarb or metaldehyde.  Both chemicals are neurotoxins that disrupt that part of the brain charged with making the mouth move in a coordinated fashion--the "central pattern generator"--as the slug feeds.  Thus, both neurotoxins, while somewhat effective, interfere with the slugs' feeding behavior and limit their ingestion of the poison, increasing the probability that some will stop feeding before receiving a lethal dose.  Moreover, slugs are not the only consumers of these poisons:  methiocarb may be toxic to a variety of species, including varieties of worms, carabid beetles, and fish.
 
Researchers are experimenting with an alternative compound based on aluminum, which may solve these problems, but this may well have a limited future as we learn more about the hazards of aluminum in the environment.  For example, some researchers suggest that acid rain kills trees by mobilizing aluminum in the soil, while others have noted that the human disease Alzheimer's is more prevalent in areas where levels of aluminum in the soil are high.  With farmers losing as much as 20 percent of their crops to slugs and snails even after treatment with currently available molluscicides, there is considerable incentive for researchers to come up with better and environmentally safer solutions.

题目：

The passage suggests that methiocarb and metaldehyde would be more effective as slug poisons if it were true that they

选项:

A、disrupt the slug's digestive processes rather than its reproductive functions
B、reduce the slug's ability to taste food
C、begin to affect the feeding behavior of a slug only after it has ingested a lethal dose
D、reach the central pattern generator more quickly
E、accumulate only in the central pattern generator rather than throughout the brain

C

Art historian: Unlike many artistic traditions that sought to depict plants native to the local area in a seasonally appropriate way (for example, depicting scenes of spring with the plants in the appropriate stages of development for that season), seventeenth-century Dutch artists specializing in flower paintings almost exclusively chose to depict exotic species of flowers from outside the local area. Painting such species was worthwhile primarily because the art-buying public had developed a strong preference for images of the exotic. The great botanical centers of the time gave the artists direct access to such flowers, which the artists would freely combine in a single painting, regardless of whether the combined species occurred together in the wild, and depicted each in full bloom, regardless of whether those species bloomed at the same time in nature.

Statement: The art historian makes the point that the species of flowers these Dutch artists chose to paint were 1 largely because the species were 2 .

Select for 1 and for 2 the options that complete the statement so that it is most strongly supported by the information provided. Make only two selections, one in each column.

Tiger beetles are such fast runners that they can capture virtually any nonflying insect.  However, when running toward an insect, the beetles intermittently stop, and then, a moment later, resume their attack.  Perhaps they cannot maintain their pace and must pause for a moment's rest; but an alternative hypothesis is that while running tiger beetles are unable to process the resulting rapidly changing visual information, and so quickly go blind and stop.
