题目:

Certain genetically modified strains of maize produce a powerful natural insecticide. The insecticide occurs throughout the plant, including its pollen. Maize pollen is dispersed by the wind and frequently blows onto milkweed plants that grow near maize fields. Caterpillars of monarch butterflies feed exclusively on milkweed leaves. When these caterpillars are fed milkweed leaves dusted with pollen from modified maize plants, they die. Therefore, by using genetically modified maize, farmers put monarch butterflies at risk.

Which of the following would it be most useful to determine in order to evaluate the argument?

选项:

A、Whether the natural insecticide is as effective against maize-eating insects as commercial insecticides typically used on maize are
B、Whether the pollen of genetically modified maize contains as much insecticide as other parts of these plants
C、Whether monarch butterfly caterpillars are actively feeding during the part of the growing season when maize is releasing pollen
D、Whether insects that feed on genetically modified maize plants are likely to be killed by insecticide from the plant’s pollen
E、Whether any maize-eating insects compete with monarch caterpillars for the leaves of milkweed plants growing near maize fields

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.


题目:

The passage suggests that Buel and Buel’s biography of Mary Fish provides evidence for which of the following views of women’s history?

选项:

A、Women have lost power in relation to men since the colonial era.
B、Women of the colonial era were not as likely to be concerned with their status as were women in the nineteenth century.
C、The colonial era was not as favorable for women as some historians have believed.
D、Women had more economic autonomy in the colonial era than in the nineteenth century.
E、Women’s occupations were generally more respected in the colonial era than in the nineteenth century.

文章:

Line         In Winters v. United States (1908), the Supreme
  Court held that the right to use waters flowing through
  or adjacent to the Fort Belknap Indian Reservation
  was reserved to American Indians by the treaty
(5) establishing the reservation. Although this treaty did
  not mention water rights, the Court ruled that the
  federal government, when it created the reservation,
  intended to deal fairly with American Indians by
  reserving for them the waters without which their
(10) lands would have been useless. Later decisions, citing
  Winters, established that courts can find federal rights
  to reserve water for particular purposes if (1) the
  land in question lies within an enclave under exclusive
  federal jurisdiction, (2) the land has been formally
(15) withdrawn from federal public lands—i.e., withdrawn
  from the stock of federal lands available for private
  use under federal land use laws—and set aside
  or reserved, and (3) the circumstances reveal the
  government intended to reserve water as well as land
(20) when establishing the reservation.
       Some American Indian tribes have also established
  water rights through the courts based on their
  traditional diversion and use of certain waters prior
  to the United States’ acquisition of sovereignty. For
(25) example, the Rio Grande pueblos already existed
  when the United States acquired sovereignty over
  New Mexico in 1848. Although they at that time
  became part of the United States, the pueblo lands
  never formally constituted a part of federal public
(30) lands; in any event, no treaty, statute, or executive
  order has ever designated or withdrawn the pueblos
  from public lands as American Indian reservations.
  This fact, however, has not barred application of the
  Winters doctrine. What constitutes an American Indian
(35) reservation is a question of practice, not of legal
  definition, and the pueblos have always been treated
  as reservations by the United States. This pragmatic
  approach is buttressed by Arizona v. California (1963),
  wherein the Supreme Court indicated that the manner
(40) in which any type of federal reservation is created
  does not affect the application to it of the Winters
  doctrine. Therefore, the reserved water rights of
  Pueblo Indians have priority over other citizens’ water
  rights as of 1848, the year in which pueblos must be
(45) considered to have become reservations.


题目:

Which of the following most accurately summarizes the relationship between Arizona v. California in lines 38–42, and the criteria citing the Winters doctrine in lines 10–20 ?

选项:

A、Arizona v. California abolishes these criteria and establishes a competing set of criteria for applying the Winters doctrine.
B、Arizona v. California establishes that the Winters doctrine applies to a broader range of situations than those defined by these criteria.
C、Arizona v. California represents the sole example of an exception to the criteria as they were set forth in the Winters doctrine.
D、Arizona v. California does not refer to the Winters doctrine to justify water rights, whereas these criteria do rely on the Winters doctrine.
E、Arizona v. California applies the criteria derived from the Winters doctrine only to federal lands other than American Indian reservations.

题目:

The symptoms that United States President Zachary Taylor began showing five days before his death are consistent with arsenic poisoning.  Recent examination of Taylor's bones, however, revealed levels of arsenic comparable to those found in the bones of Taylor's contemporaries.  These levels are much lower than the levels of arsenic that remain in the bones of arsenic poisoning victims who live for more than a day after ingesting a lethal dose of the poison.
Which of the following is most strongly supported by the statements given?

选项:

A、The symptoms that Taylor began showing five days before his death are consistent with poisoning other than arsenic poisoning.
B、Taylor's death was not the result of any kind of poisoning.
C、The symptoms that Taylor began showing five days before his death were not caused by a lethal dose of arsenic.

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.
