题目:

Economist:  Tropicorp, which constantly seeks profitable investment opportunities, has been buying and clearing sections of tropical forest for cattle ranching, although pastures newly created there become useless for grazing after just a few years.  The company has not gone into rubber tapping, even though greater profits can be made from rubber tapping, which leaves the forest intact.  Thus, some environmentalists conclude that Tropicorp has not acted wholly out of economic self-interest.  However, these environmentalists are probably wrong.  The initial investment required for a successful rubber-tapping operation is larger than that needed for a cattle ranch.  Furthermore, there is a shortage of workers employable in rubber-tapping operations, and finally, taxes are higher on profits from rubber tapping than on profits from cattle ranching.
 
In the economist's argument, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles?

选项:

A、The first supports the conclusion of the economist's argument; the second calls that conclusion into question.
B、The first states the conclusion of the economist's argument; the second supports that conclusion.
C、The first supports the environmentalists' conclusion; the second states that conclusion.
D、The first states the environmentalists' conclusion; the second states the conclusion of the economist's argument.
E、Each supports the conclusion of the economist's argument.

文章:

Line         Because the framers of the United States
  Constitution (written in 1787) believed that protecting
  property rights relating to inventions would encourage
  the new nation’s economic growth, they gave
(5) Congress—the national legislature—a constitutional
  mandate to grant patents for inventions. The resulting
  patent system has served as a model for those in
  other nations. Recently, however, scholars have
  questioned whether the American system helped
(10) achieve the framers’ goals. These scholars have
  contended that from 1794 to roughly 1830, American
  inventors were unable to enforce property rights
  because judges were “antipatent” and routinely
  invalidated patents for arbitrary reasons. This
(15) argument is based partly on examination of court
  decisions in cases where patent holders (“patentees”)
  brought suit alleging infringement of their patent
  rights. In the 1820s, for instance, 75 percent
  of verdicts were decided against the patentee.
(20) The proportion of verdicts for the patentee began to
  increase in the 1830s, suggesting to these scholars
  that judicial attitudes toward patent rights began
  shifting then.
       Not all patent disputes in the early nineteenth
(25) century were litigated, however, and litigated
  cases were not drawn randomly from the
  population of disputes. Therefore the rate of
  verdicts in favor of patentees cannot be used
  by itself to gauge changes in judicial attitudes
(30) or enforceability of patent rights. If early judicial
  decisions were prejudiced against patentees, one
  might expect that subsequent courts—allegedly
  more supportive of patent rights—would reject
  the former legal precedents. But pre-1830
(35) cases have been cited as frequently as later
  decisions, and they continue to be cited today,
  suggesting that the early decisions, many of
  which clearly declared that patent rights were
  a just recompense for inventive ingenuity,
(40) provided a lasting foundation for patent law.
  The proportion of judicial decisions in favor of
  patentees began to increase during the 1830s
  because of a change in the underlying population
  of cases brought to trial. This change was partly
(45) due to an 1836 revision to the patent system:
  an examination procedure, still in use today, was
  instituted in which each application is scrutinized
  for its adherence to patent law. Previously,
  patents were automatically granted upon payment
(50) of a $30 fee.


题目:

B、Whether the patents were actually relevant to the growth of the United States economy

Which of the following most logically completes the passage?

According to the last pre-election poll in Whippleton, most voters believe that the three problems government needs to address, in order of importance, are pollution, crime, and unemployment. Yet in the election, candidates from parties perceived as strongly against pollution were defeated, while those elected were all from parties with a history of opposing legislation designed to reduce pollution. These results should not be taken to indicate that the poll was inaccurate, however, since __________.

题目:

Newspaper editors should not allow reporters to write the headlines for their own stories. The reason for this is that, while the headlines that reporters themselves write are often clever, what typically makes them clever is that they allude to little-known information that is familiar to the reporter but that never appears explicitly in the story itself.

Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument?

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.
