Line        Conodonts, the spiky phosphatic remains (bones
 and teeth composed of calcium phosphate) of
 tiny marine animals that probably appeared about
 520 million years ago, were once among the most
(5)controversial of fossils. Both the nature of the
 organism to which the remains belonged and the
 function of the remains were unknown. However,
 since the 1981 discovery of fossils preserving not
 just the phosphatic elements but also other remains
(10)of the tiny soft-bodied animals (also called conodonts)
 that bore them, scientists' reconstructions of the
 animals' anatomy have had important implications
 for hypotheses concerning the development of the
 vertebrate skeleton.
(15)     The vertebrate skeleton had traditionally been
 regarded as a defensive development, champions of
 this view postulating that it was only with the much
 later evolution of jaws that vertebrates became
 predators. The first vertebrates, which were soft-
(20)bodied, would have been easy prey for numerous
 invertebrate carnivores, especially if these early
 vertebrates were sedentary suspension feeders.
 Thus, traditionalists argued, these animals developed
 coverings of bony scales or plates, and teeth were
(25)secondary features, adapted from the protective
 bony scales. Indeed, external skeletons of this
 type are common among the well-known fossils of
 ostracoderms, jawless vertebrates that existed from
 approximately 500 to 400 million years ago.
(30)However, other paleontologists argued that many of
 the definitive characteristics of vertebrates, such as
 paired eyes and muscular and skeletal adaptations
 for active life, would not have evolved unless the
(35)first vertebrates were predatory. Teeth were more
 primitive than external armor according to this view,
 and the earliest vertebrates were predators.
      The stiffening notochord along the back of the
 body, V-shaped muscle blocks along the sides,
(40)and posterior tail fins help to identify conodonts as
 among the most primitive of vertebrates. The lack of
 any mineralized structures apart from the elements
 in the mouth indicates that conodonts were more
 primitive than the armored jawless fishes such as the
(45)ostracoderms. It now appears that the hard parts that
 first evolved in the mouth of an animal improved its
 efficiency as a predator, and that aggression rather
 than protection was the driving force behind the origin
 of the vertebrate skeleton.

文章:

Kitchen magazine plans to license the use of its name by a line of cookware. For a magazine, licensing the use of its name for products involves some danger, since if the products disappoint consumers, the magazine's reputation suffers, with consequent reductions in circulation and advertising. However, experts have evaluated the cookware and found it superior to all other cookware advertised in Kitchen. Therefore, Kitchen can collect its licensing fee without endangering its other revenues.

题目:

The argument above assumes which of the following?

选项:

A、No other line of cookware is superior to that which will carry the Kitchen name. Kitchen will not license the use of its name for any products other than the line of cookware. 
B、Makers of cookware will not find Kitchen a less attractive advertising vehicle because the magazine's name is associated with a competing product. 
C、Consumers who are not regular readers of Kitchen magazine will be attracted to the cookware by the Kitchen name.
D、Kitchen is one of the most prestigious cooking-related magazines.

题目:

The Calex Telecommunications Company is planning to introduce cellular telephone service into isolated coastal areas of Caladia, a move which will require considerable investment.  However, the only significant economic activity in these areas is small-scale coffee farming, and none of the coffee farmers make enough money to afford the monthly service fees that Calex would have to charge to make a profit.  Nevertheless, Calex contends that making the service available to these farmers will be profitable.
Which of the following, if true, provides the strongest support for Calex's contention?

选项:

A、Currently, Caladian coffee farmers are forced to sell their coffee to local buyers at whatever price those buyers choose to pay because the farmers are unable to remain in contact with outside buyers who generally offer higher prices.
B、In the coastal areas of Caladia where Calex proposes to introduce cellular telephone service, there is currently no fixed-line telephone service because fixed-line companies do not believe that they could recoup their investment.
C、A cellular telephone company can break even with a considerably smaller number of subscribers than a fixed-line company can, even in areas such as the Caladian coast, where there is no difficult terrain to drive up the costs of installing fixed lines.
D、Calex bases its monthly fees for cellular telephone service in a given region partly on the cost of installing the necessary equipment to provide the service there.
E、Calex has for years made a profit on cellular telephone service in Caladia's capital city, which is not far from the coastal region.

文章:

When species are extensively hunted, individuals that reach reproductive maturity early make up a larger proportion of the population, because they have a better chance of reproducing. When species face diminished food resources, on the other hand, individuals tend to take longer to reach reproductive maturity. These considerations may help settle whether the primary cause of the gradual disappearance of North America's mastodons, prehistoric animals related to elephants, was diminished food resources or human hunting, since __________.

题目:

Which of the following most logically completes the reasoning?

选项:

A、from the location of certain hunting weapons in juxtaposition with mastodon remains, it is possible to determine whether those weapons were used to hunt mastodonsthe average age at which mastodons reached reproductive maturity can be established from mastodon tusks, of which there are many fossils dating from different periods
B、from the remains of mastodons already discovered, it can be accurately estimated when mastodons became extinct 
C、from tusks and other bones, it is possible to determine whether male and female mastodons reached reproductive maturity at about the same age
D、it is possible to determine whether the earliest human dwellings constructed from mastodon tusks and bones come from an earlier period than the earliest hunting weapons unambiguously associated with mastodon remains

文章:

A certain mayor has proposed a fee of five dollars per day on private vehicles entering the city, claiming that the fee will alleviate the city's traffic congestion. The mayor reasons that, since the fee will exceed the cost of round-trip bus fare from many nearby points, many people will switch from using their cars to using the bus.

题目:

Which of the following statements, if true, provides the best evidence that the mayor's reasoning is flawed?

选项:

A、Projected increases in the price of gasoline will increase the cost of taking a private vehicle into the city.The cost of parking fees already makes it considerably more expensive for most people to take a private vehicle into the city than to take a bus.
B、Most of the people currently riding the bus do not own private vehicles. 
C、Many commuters opposing the mayor's plan have indicated that they would rather endure trafficcongestion than pay a five-dollar-per day fee. 
D、During the average workday, private vehicles owned and operated by people living within the city account for twenty percent of the city's traffic congestion.

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.
 
Which of the following, if discovered in experiments using artificially moved prey insects, would support one of the two hypotheses and undermine the other?
