Although the industrial union organizations that emerged under the banner of the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO) in the 1930s and 1940s embraced the principles of nondiscrimination and inclusion, the role of women within unions reflected the prevailing gender ideology of the period.  Elizabeth Faue's study of the labor movement in Minneapolis argues that women were marginalized by union bureaucratization and by the separation of unions from the community politics from which industrial unionism had emerged.  Faue stresses the importance of women's contribution to the development of unions at the community level, contributions that made women's ultimate fate within the city's labor movement all the more poignant:  as unions reached the peak of their strength in the 1940s, the community base that had made their success possible and to which women's contributions were so vital became increasingly irrelevant to unions' institutional life.
 
In her study of CIO industrial unions from the 1930s to the 1970s, Nancy F. Gabin also acknowledges the pervasive male domination in the unions, but maintains that women workers were able to create a political space within some unions to advance their interests as women.  Gabin shows that, despite the unions' tendency to marginalize women's issues, working women's demands were a constant undercurrent within the union, and she stresses the links between the unions' women activists and the wave of feminism that emerged in the 1960s.

题目:

According to the passage, Faue's study and Gabin's study agree in that both

选项:

A、attribute the inclusion of women in unions to the policies of the CIO
B、emphasize the importance of unions at the community level
C、argue that women played important roles in the establishment of industrial union organizations
D、suggest that women in industrial union organizations played a subordinate role
E、 suggest that the interests of women workers were incompatible with those of unions in general

题目:

Traverton’s city council wants to minimize the city’s average yearly expenditures on its traffic signal lights and so is considering replacing the incandescent bulbs currently in use with arrays of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as the incandescent bulbs burn out. Compared to incandescent bulbs, LED arrays consume significantly less energy and cost no more to purchase. Moreover, the costs associated with the conversion of existing fixtures so as to accept LED arrays would be minimal.

Which of the following would it be most useful to know in determining whether switching to LED arrays would be likely to help minimize Traverton’s yearly maintenance costs?

选项:

A、Whether the expected service life of LED arrays is at least as long as that of the currently used incandescent bulbs
B、Whether any cities have switched from incandescent lights in their traffic signals to lighting elements other than LED arrays
C、Whether the company from which Traverton currently buys incandescent bulbs for traffic signals also sells LED arrays
D、Whether Traverton’s city council plans to increase the number of traffic signal lights in Traverton
E、Whether the crews that currently replace incandescent bulbs in Traverton’s traffic signals know how to convert the existing fixtures so as to accept LED arrays

题目:

In the last decade there has been a significant decrease in coffee consumption. During this same time, there has been increasing publicity about the adverse long-term effects on health of the caffeine in coffee. Therefore, the decrease in coffee consumption must have been caused by consumers’ awareness of the harmful effects of caffeine.

Which of the following, if true, most seriously calls into question the explanation above?

选项:

A、On average, people consume 30 percent less coffee today than they did 10 years ago.
B、Heavy coffee drinkers may have mild withdrawal symptoms, such as headaches, for a day or so after significantly decreasing their coffee consumption.
C、Sales of specialty types of coffee have held steady as sales of regular brands have declined.
D、The consumption of fruit juices and caffeine-free herbal teas has increased over the past decade.

文章:

Line         In terrestrial environments, gravity places
  special demands on the cardiovascular systems of
  animals. Gravitational pressure can cause blood to
  pool in the lower regions of the body, making it
(5) difficult to circulate blood to critical organs such as
  the brain. Terrestrial snakes, in particular, exhibit
  adaptations that aid in circulating blood against the
  force of gravity.
       The problem confronting terrestrial snakes is best
(10) illustrated by what happens to sea snakes when
  removed from their supportive medium. Because the
  vertical pressure gradients within the blood vessels
  are counteracted by similar pressure gradients in
  the surrounding water, the distribution of blood
(15) throughout the body of sea snakes remains about
  the same regardless of their orientation in space,
  provided they remain in the ocean. When removed
  from the water and tilted at various angles with the
  head up, however, blood pressure at their midpoint
(20) drops significantly, and at brain level falls to zero.
  That many terrestrial snakes in similar spatial
  orientations do not experience this kind of circulatory
  failure suggests that certain adaptations enable them
  to regulate blood pressure more effectively in those
(25) orientations.
       One such adaptation is the closer proximity of
  the terrestrial snake’s heart to its head, which helps
  to ensure circulation to the brain, regardless of the
  snake’s orientation in space. The heart of sea snakes
(30) can be located near the middle of the body, a
  position that minimizes the work entailed in
  circulating blood to both extremities. In arboreal
  snakes, however, which dwell in trees and often
  assume a vertical posture, the average distance
(35) from the heart to the head can be as little as
  15 percent of overall body length. Such a location
  requires that blood circulated to the tail of the
  snake travel a greater distance back to the heart,
  a problem solved by another adaptation. When
(40) climbing, arboreal snakes often pause
  momentarily to wiggle their bodies, causing waves
  of muscle contraction that advance from the lower
  torso to the head. By compressing the veins and
  forcing blood forward, these contractions
(45) apparently improve the flow of venous blood
  returning to the heart.


题目:

The author suggests that which of the following is a disadvantage that results from the location of a snake’s heart in close proximity to its head?

选项:

A、A decrease in the efficiency with which the snake regulates the flow of blood to the brain
B、A decrease in the number of orientations in space that a snake can assume without loss of blood flow to the brain
C、A decrease in blood pressure at the snake’s midpoint when it is tilted at various angles with its head up
D、An increase in the tendency of blood to pool at the snake’s head when the snake is tilted at various angles with its head down
E、An increase in the amount of effort required to distribute blood to and from the snake’s tail

E

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.
