Which of the following most logically completes the argument below?
Davison River farmers are currently deciding between planting winter wheat this fall or spring wheat next spring. Winter wheat and spring wheat are usually about equally profitable. Because of new government restrictions on the use of Davison River water for irrigation, per acre yields for winter wheat, though not for spring wheat, would be much lower than average. Therefore, planting spring wheat will be more profitable than planting winter wheat, since ________.

B、new crops of spring wheat must be planted earlier than the time at which standing crops of winter wheat are ready to be harvested

| Line | Historians remain divided over the role of |
| banks in facilitating economic growth in the | |
| United States in the late eighteenth and early | |
| nineteenth centuries. Some scholars contend | |
| (5) | that banks played a minor role in the nation’s |
| growing economy. Financial institutions, they | |
| argue, appeared only after the economy had | |
| begun to develop, and once organized, followed | |
| conservative lending practices, providing aid to | |
| (10) | established commercial enterprises but |
| shunning those, such as manufacturing and | |
| transportation projects, that were more | |
| uncertain and capital-intensive (i.e., requiring | |
| greater expenditures in the form of capital than in | |
| (15) | labor). |
| A growing number of historians argue, in | |
| contrast, that banks were crucial in transforming | |
| the early national economy. When state | |
| legislatures began granting more bank charters | |
| (20) | in the 1790s and early 1800s, the supply of |
| credit rose accordingly. Unlike the earliest banks, | |
| which had primarily provided short-term loans to | |
| well-connected merchants, the banks of the early | |
| nineteenth century issued credit widely. As Paul | |
| (25) | Gilje asserts, the expansion and democratization |
| of credit in the early nineteenth century became | |
| the driving force of the American economy, as | |
| banks began furnishing large amounts of capital | |
| to transportation and industrial enterprises. The | |
| (30) | exception, such historians argue, was in the |
| South; here, the overwhelmingly agrarian nature | |
| of the economy generated outright opposition | |
| to banks, which were seen as monopolistic | |
| institutions controlled by an elite group of | |
| (35) | planters. |
题目：
The passage suggests that the scholars mentioned in line 4 would argue that the reason banks tended not to fund manufacturing and transportation projects in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries was that
选项:
A、these projects, being well established and well capitalized, did not need substantial long-term financing from banks
B、these projects entailed a level of risk that was too great for banks’ conservative lending practices
C、banks preferred to invest in other, more speculative projects that offered the potential for higher returns
D、bank managers believed that these projects would be unlikely to contribute significantly to economic growth in the new country
E、bank managers believed funding these projects would result in credit being extended to too many borrowers

B

题目：
Scientists typically do their most creative work before the age of forty. It is commonly thought that this happens because aging by itself brings about a loss of creative capacity. However, studies show that of scientists who produce highly creative work beyond the age of forty, a disproportionately large number entered their field at an older age than is usual. Since by the age of forty the large majority of scientists have been working in their field for at least fifteen years, the studies’ finding strongly suggests that the real reason why scientists over forty rarely produce highly creative work is not that they have aged but rather that scientists over forty have generally spent too long in their field.

题目：
By competing with rodents for seeds, black ants help control rodent populations that pose a public health risk. However, a very aggressive species of blank ant, the Loma ant, which has recently invaded a certain region, has a venomous sting that is often fatal to humans. Therefore, the planned introduction into that region of ant flies, which prey on Loma ants, would benefit public health.
Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument?
选项:
A、Ant flies do not attack black ants other than Loma ants.
B、Loma ants are less effective than many bird species in competing with rodents for seeds.
C、Certain other species of black ants are more effective than Loma ants in competing with rodents for seeds.
D、The sting of Loma ants can also be fatal to rodents.
E、The use of pesticides to control Loma ants could have harmful effects on the environment.

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?
