题目:

Researchers believe that we will ultimately be able to explain all "psychic" phenomena. Achieving this goal requires knowledge of how mental images are "sent" and "received" over distance and how senders and receivers interact at a biological level. At present, there is a substantial amount of fundamental knowledge about receiving images and sending images. Thus, as researchers claim, psychic phenomena will soon be explainable.
Which one of the following indicates an error in the reasons in the passage?

选项:

A、A. The conclusion contradicts researchers.
B、B. The passage fails to describe what is currently known about senders and receivers.
C、C. The passage does not indicate that any knowledge has been achieved about how senders and receivers interact at a biological level.
D、D. The argument does not indicate whether this information will be useful.
E、E. The passage is not specific about what psychic phenomena are being researched.

The following appeared in the editorial section of a campus newspaper
 
"Because occupancy rates for campus housing fell during the last academic year, so did housing revenues. To solve the problem, campus housing officials should reduce the number of available housing units, thereby increasing the occupancy rates. Also, to keep students from choosing to live off-campus, housing officials should lower the rents, thereby increasing demand."

Line         Manufacturers have to do more than build large
  manufacturing plants to realize economies of scale.
  It is true that as the capacity of a manufacturing
  operation rises, costs per unit of output fall as plant
(5) size approaches “minimum efficient scale,” where the
  cost per unit of output reaches a minimum,
  determined roughly by the state of existing technology
  and size of the potential market. However, minimum
  efficient scale cannot be fully realized unless a steady
(10) “throughput” (the flow of materials through a plant) is
  attained. The throughput needed to maintain the
  optimal scale of production requires careful
  coordination not only of the flow of goods through the
  production process, but also of the flow of input from
(15) suppliers and the flow of output to wholesalers and
  final consumers. If throughput falls below a critical
  point, unit costs rise sharply and profits disappear. A
  manufacturer’s fixed costs and “sunk costs” (original
  capital investment in the physical plant) do not
(20) decrease when production declines due to inadequate
  supplies of raw materials, problems on the factory
  floor, or inefficient sales networks. Consequently,
  potential economies of scale are based on the
  physical and engineering characteristics of the
(25) production facilities—that is, on tangible capital—but
  realized economies of scale are operational and
  organizational, and depend on knowledge, skills,
  experience, and teamwork—that is, on organized
  human capabilities, or intangible capital.
(30)      The importance of investing in intangible capital
  becomes obvious when one looks at what happens in
  new capital-intensive manufacturing industries. Such
  industries are quickly dominated, not by the first firms
  to acquire technologically sophisticated plants of
(35) theoretically optimal size, but rather by the first to
  exploit the full potential of such plants. Once some
  firms achieve this, a market becomes extremely hard
  to enter. Challengers must construct comparable
  plants and do so after the first movers have already
(40) worked out problems with suppliers or with new
  production processes. Challengers must create
  distribution networks and marketing systems in
  markets where first movers have all the contacts and
  know-how. And challengers must recruit management
(45) teams to compete with those that have already
  mastered these functional and strategic activities.

文章:

Line        In the Sonoran Desert of northwestern Mexico and
 southern Arizona, the flowers of several species of
 columnar cacti—cardon, saguaro, and organ
 pipe—were once exclusively pollinated at night by
(5)nectar-feeding bats, as their close relatives in arid
 tropical regions of southern Mexico still are. In these
 tropical regions, diurnal (daytime) visitors to columnar
 cactus flowers are ineffective pollinators because,
 by sunrise, the flowers' stigmas become unreceptive
(10)or the flowers close. Yet the flowers of the Sonoran
 Desert cacti have evolved to remain open after sunrise,
 allowing pollination by such diurnal visitors as bees and
 birds. Why have these cacti expanded their range of
 pollinators by remaining open and receptive in daylight?
(15)     This development at the northernmost range of
 columnar cacti may be due to a yearly variation in the
 abundance—and hence the reliability—of migratory
 nectar-feeding bats. Pollinators can be unreliable
 for several reasons. They can be dietary generalists
(20)whose fidelity to a particular species depends on
 the availability of alternative food sources. Or, they
 can be dietary specialists, but their abundance may
 vary widely from year to year, resulting in variable
 pollination of their preferred food species. Finally, they
(25)may be dietary specialists, but their abundance may
 be chronically low relative to the availability of flowers.
      Recent data reveals that during spring in the
 Sonoran Desert, the nectar-feeding bats are
 specialists feeding on cardon, saguaro, and
(30)organpipe flowers. However, whereas cactus-flower
 abundance tends to be high during spring, bat
 population densities tend to be low except near
 maternity roosts. Moreover, in spring, diurnal cactus-
 pollinating birds are significantly more abundant in
(35)this region than are the nocturnal bats. Thus, with bats
 being unreliable cactus-flower pollinators, and daytime
 pollinators more abundant and therefore more reliable,
 selection favors the cactus flowers with traits that
 increase their range of pollinators. While data suggest
(40)that population densities of nectar-feeding bats are
 also low in tropical areas of southern Mexico, where
 bats are the exclusive pollinators of many species
 of columnar cacti, cactus-flower density and bat
 population density appear to be much more evenly
(45)balanced there: compared with the Sonoran Desert's
 cardon and saguaro, columnar cacti in southern Mexico
 produce far fewer flowers per night. Accordingly,
 despite their low population density, bats are able to
 pollinate nearly 100 percent of the available flowers.

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.
