Height-for-age standards

The World Health Organization (WHO) has produced a comprehensive set of growth stan­dards for children. These standards are based on studies of children living in 6 nations on 5 continents under optimal conditions with respect to health and nutrition. The table dis­plays the percentile distribution of height, in centimeters, at 3-month intervals, for boys ages 2 through 5 according to the WHO model. In a model population—a large population of boys ages 2 through 5 that conforms to the WHO growth standards—for n = 3.15, 50. 85. and 97, the nth percentile in height for a given age is the unique height among boys of that age that is greater than or equal to n percent, and less than or equal to (100 - n) percent, of heights of boys of that age.

Weight-for-height standards

The graph shows the percentile distribution of weight, in kilograms, for heights from 80 cm to 120 cm. for boys ages 2 through 5, according to the WHO model. In a model population, for n = 3,15,50,85, and 97. the nth percentile in weight for a given height is the unique weight among boys of that height that is greater than or equal to n percent, and less than or equal to (100 - n) percent, of weights of boys of that age.

题目:

13. B is a boy aged 4 years 3 months whose height is 110 cm and whose weight is 19 kg. For each of the following statements, select Yes if, based on the given information, it must be true of B relative to a model population. Otherwise, select NO.

选项:

A、Approximately 50% of boys at the same weight are shorter than B.
B、No more than 15% of boys at this age are taller than B.
C、B's height is greater than or equal to that of 50% of boys aged 5 years 0 months.

题目:

Several ancient Greek texts provide accounts of people being poisoned by honey that the tests suggest was made from the nectar of rhododendron or oleander plants. Honey made from such nectar can cause the effects the tests describe, but only if eaten fresh, since the honey loses
its toxicity with a few weeks of being made. In Greece, rhododendron and oleander bloom only in springtime, when they are the predominant
sources of nectar.
 
Which of the following conclusions is most strongly supported by the information given?

选项:

A、There are no plants that grew in Greece in ancient times that produce more nectar than rhododendron or oleander do.
B、In area where neither rhododendron nor oleander grow, honey is never poisonous.
C、A beehive's honeycomb cannot have same sections that contain toxic honey and other sections that contain nontoxic honey.
D、The incidents of honey poisoning that are related in the ancient texts occurred in the springtime or in the early summer.
E、Whether the honey in a beehive is toxic depends solely on which plants were the source of the nectar that was used to make the money.

文章:

    Most pre-1990 literature on businesses' use of information technology (IT)-defined as any form of computer based information system-focused on spectacular IT successes and reflected a general optimism concerning IT's potential as a resource for creating competitive advantage. But toward the end of the 1980's, some economists spoke of a"productivity paradox"; despite huge IT investments, most notably in the service sectors, productivity stagnated. In the retail industry, for example, in which IT had been widely adopted during the 1980's, productivity (average output per hour) rose at an average annual rate of 1.1 percent between 1973 and 1989, compared with 2.4 percent in the preceding 25-year period. Proponents of IT argued that it takes both time and a critical mass of investment for IT to yield benefits, and some suggested that growth figures for the 1990's proved these benefits were finally being realized. They also argued that measures of productivity ignore what would have happened without investments in IT productivity gains might have been even lower. There were even claims that IT had improved the performance of the service sector significantly, although macroeconomic measures of productivity did not reflect the improvement.

    But some observers questioned why, if IT had conferred economic value, it did not produce direct competitive advantages for individual firms. Resource-based theory offers an answer, asserting that, in general, firms gain competitive advantages by accumulating resources that are economically valuable, relatively scarce, and not easily replicated. According to a recent study of retail firms, which confirmed that IT has become pervasive and relatively easy to acquire, IT by itself appeared to have conferred little advantage. In fact, though little evidence of any direct effect was found, the frequent negative correlations between IT and performance suggested that IT had probably weakened some firms' competitive positions. However, firms' human resources, in and of themselves, did explain improved performance, and some firms gained IT-related advantages by merging IT with complementary resources, particularly human resources. The findings support the notion, founded in resource-based theory, that competitive advantages do not arise from easily replicated resources, no matter how impressive or economically valuable they may be, but from complex, intangible resources.

选项:

A、suggest a way in which IT can be used to create a competitive advantage
B、provide an illustration of the 'productivity paradox'
C、emphasize the practical value of the introduction of IT
D、cite an industry in which productivity did not stagnate during the 1980's

文章:

Line         Two works published in 1984 demonstrate
  contrasting approaches to writing the history of
  United States women. Buel and Buel’s biography
  of Mary Fish (1736–1818) makes little effort to
(5) place her story in the context of recent
  historiography on women. Lebsock, meanwhile,
  attempts not only to write the history of women in
  one southern community, but also to redirect two
  decades of historiographical debate as to
(10) whether women gained or lost status in the
  nineteenth century as compared with the
  eighteenth century. Although both books offer the
  reader the opportunity to assess this controversy
  regarding women’s status, only Lebsock’s deals with
(15) it directly. She examines several different aspects
  of women’s status, helping to refine and resolve the
  issues. She concludes that while
  women gained autonomy in some areas,
  especially in the private sphere, they lost it in
(20) many aspects of the economic sphere. More
  importantly, she shows that the debate itself
  depends on frame of reference: in many respects,
  women lost power in relation to men, for example,
  as certain jobs (delivering babies, supervising
(25) schools) were taken over by men. Yet women also
  gained power in comparison with their previous
  status, owning a higher proportion of real estate,
  for example. In contrast, Buel and Buel’s
  biography provides ample raw material for
(30) questioning the myth, fostered by some
  historians, of a colonial golden age in the
  eighteenth century but does not give the reader
  much guidance in analyzing the controversy over
  women’s status.

According to the passage, Lebsock’s work differs from Buel and Buel’s work in that Lebsock’s work

选项:

A、uses a large number of primary sources
B、ignores issues of women’s legal status

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.
