文章:

Citing the fact that the real gross domestic product (GDP) per capita was higher in 1997 than ever before, some journalists have argued that the United States economy performed ideally in 1997. However, the real GDP is almost always higher than ever before; it falls only during recessions. One point these journalists overlooked is that in 1997, as in the twenty-four years immediately preceding it, the real GDP per capita grew nearly one-half percent a year more slowly than it had on average between 1873 and 1973. Were the 1997 economy as robust as claimed, the growth rate of real GDP per capita in 1997 would have surpassed the average growth rate of real GDP per capita between 1873 and 1973 because over fifty percent of the population worked for wages in 1997 whereas only forty percent worked for wages between 1873 and 1973. If the growth rate of labor productivity (output per hour of goods and services) in 1997 had equaled its average growth rate between 1873 and 1973 of more than two percent, then, given the proportionately larger workforce that existed in 1997, real GDP per capita in 1997 would have been higher than it actually was, since output is a major factor in GDP. However, because labor productivity grew by only one percent in 1997, real GDP per capita grew more slowly in 1997 than it had on average between 1873 and 1973.

题目:

It can be inferred from the passage that which of the following is the reason that the author faults the journalists referred to in the highlighted text?

选项:

A、They believe that the real GDP per capita in 1997 was higher than the real GDP per capita had ever been before.
B、They argue that the rate at which real GDP per capita grew in 1997 was faster than the average rate at which it had grown between 1873 and 1973. 
C、They overestimate the effect of labor productivity on the real GDP per capita in 1997. 
D、They overestimate the amount by which real GDP per capita in 1997 surpassed real GDP per capita in earlier years. 
E、They fail to consider the real GDP per capita in 1997 within an appropriate historical context.

E

Line        The argument for “monetizing”—or putting a
 monetary value on—ecosystem functions may be
 stated thus: Concern about the depletion of natural
 resources is widespread, but this concern, in the
(5)absence of an economic argument for conservation,
 has not translated into significant conservational
 progress. Some critics blame this impasse on
 environmentalists, whom they believe fail to address
 the economic issues of environmental degradation.
(10)Conservation can appear unprofitable when compared
 with the economic returns derived from converting
 natural assets (pristine coastlines, for example) into
 explicitly commercial ones (such as resort hotels).
 But according to David Pearce, that illusion stems
(15)from the fact that “services” provided by ecological
 systems are not traded on the commodities market,
 and thus have no readily quantifiable value. To
 remedy this, says Pearce, one has to show that all
 ecosystems have economic value—indeed, that all
(20)ecological services are economic services. Tourists
 visiting wildlife preserves, for example, create
 jobs and generate income for national economies;
 undisturbed forests and wetlands regulate water
 runoff and act as water-purifying systems, saving
(25)millions of dollars worth of damage to property
 and to marine ecosystems. In Gretchen Daily’s
 view, monetization, while unpopular with many
 environmentalists, reflects the dominant role that
 economic considerations play in human behavior,
(30)and the expression of economic value in a common
 currency helps inform environmental decision-making
 processes.

According to the passage, Daily sees monetization as an indication of which of the following?

In late 1997, the chambers inside the pyramid of the Pharaoh Menkaure at Giza were closed to visitors for cleaning and repair due to moisture exhaled by tourists, which raised its humidity to such levels so that salt from the stone was crystallizing and fungus was growing on the walls.

选项:

A、due to moisture exhaled by tourists, which raised its humidity to such levels so that salt from the stone was crystallizing
B、due to moisture that tourists had exhaled, thereby raising its humidity to such levels that salt from the stone would crystallize
C、because tourists were exhaling moisture, which had raised the humidity within them to levels such that salt from the stone would crystallize
D、because of moisture that was exhaled by tourists raising the humidity within them to levels so high as to make the salt from the stone crystallize

文章:

Line    According to economic signaling theory,
  consumers may perceive the frequency with
  which an unfamiliar brand is advertised as a cue
  that the brand is of high quality. The notion that
(5) highly advertised brands are associated with
  high-quality products does have some empirical
  support. Marquardt and McGann found that
  heavily advertised products did indeed rank high
  on certain measures of product quality. Because
(10) large advertising expenditures represent
  a significant investment on the part of a
  manufacturer, only companies that expect to
  recoup these costs in the long run, through
  consumers’ repeat purchases of the product,
(15) can afford to spend such amounts.
       However, two studies by Kirmani have found
  that although consumers initially perceive expensive
  advertising as a signal of high brand quality,
  at some level of spending the manufacturer’s
(20) advertising effort may be perceived as unreasonably
  high, implying low manufacturer confidence in
  product quality. If consumers perceive excessive
  advertising effort as a sign of a manufacturer’s
  desperation, the result may be less favorable
(25) brand perceptions. In addition, a third study by
  Kirmani, of print advertisements, found that the
  use of color affected consumer perception of
  brand quality. Because consumers recognize that
  color advertisements are more expensive than
(30) black and white, the point at which repetition of an
  advertisement is perceived as excessive comes
  sooner for a color advertisement than for a blackand-
  white advertisement.

选项:

A、present findings that contradict one explanation for the effects of a particular advertising practice

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.
