题目:

Sammy: For my arthritis, I am going to try my aunt's diet: large amounts of wheat germ and garlic. She was able to move more easily right after she started that diet.

Pat: When my brother began that diet, his arthritis got worse. But he has been doing much better since he stopped eating vegetables in the nightshade family, such as tomatoes and peppers.

选项:

文章:

Line Determining whether a given population of animals
constitutes a distinct species can be difficult
because no single accepted definition of the term
exists. One approach, called the biological species
(5) concept, bases the definition on reproductive
compatibility. According to this view, a species
is a group of animals that can mate with one
another to produce fertile offspring but cannot
mate successfully with members of a different
(10) group. Yet this idea can be too restrictive. First,
mating between groups labeled as different species
(hybridization), as often occurs in the canine family,
is quite common in nature. Second, sometimes
the differences between two populations might not
(15) prevent them from interbreeding, even though they
are dissimilar in traits unrelated to reproduction;
some biologists question whether such disparate
groups should be considered a single species. A
third problem with the biological species concept is
(20) that investigators cannot always determine whether
two groups that live in different places are capable
of interbreeding.
When the biological species concept is difficult
to apply, some investigators use phenotype, an
(25) organism’s observable characteristics, instead.
Two groups that have evolved separately are likely
to display measurable differences in many of their
traits, such as skull size or width of teeth. If the
distribution of measurements from one group does
(30) not overlap with those of another, the two groups
might reasonably be considered distinct species.

文章:

Line Arboria is floundering in the global marketplace,
incurring devastating losses in market position and
profits. The problem is not Arboria's products, but
Arboria's trade policy. Arboria faces the prospect
(5) of continuing economic loss until Arborian business
and political leaders recognize the fundamental
differences between Arborian and foreign economic
systems. Today the key trade issue is not free trade
versus protectionism but diminishing trade versus
(10) expanding trade.
Arboria is operating with an obsolete trade policy,
an artifact of the mid-1940s when Arboria and
Whorfland dominated the global economy, tariffs
were the principal obstacle to trade, and Arborian
(15) supremacy was uncontested in virtually all industries.
In the intervening decades, economic circumstances
have shifted radically. Arborian trade policy has not.
Today, Arboria's trade policy seems paralyzed
by the relentless conflict between proponents of
(20) “free” and “fair” trade. The free traders argue that
Arborian markets should be open, and the movement
of goods and services across national borders
unrestrained. The fair traders assert that access to
Arborian markets should be restricted until Arborian
(25) businesses are granted equal access to foreign
markets. They contend that free trade is impossible
while other nations erect barriers to Arborian exports.
Both are correct: fair trade requires equal access
and equal access leads to free trade. But both sides
(30) base their positions on the same two outdated
premises:
1. Global commerce is conducted under the terms of
the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT)
and dominated by Arboria and similar economic
(35) systems abroad.
2. Multilateral negotiations are the most effective way
to resolve pressing trade issues.
Both assumptions are wrong. The 40-year-old GATT
now covers less than 7 percent of global commerce.
(40) World trade is no longer dominated by the free-
trade economies; nearly 75 percent is conducted
by economic systems operating with principles at
odds with those of Arboria. Forging a multilateral
trade policy consensus among so many diverse
(45) economic systems has become virtually impossible.
And while multilateral talks drag on, Arboria misses
opportunities for trade expansion.

题目:

The author implies that the main obstacle to a truly effective Arborian trade policy is the

选项:

A、weak position that Arboria currently holds in the global marketplace
B、inability of Arborian leaders to recognize that foreign economic systems are based on principles fundamentally different from their own
C、dominance of the supporters of free trade in the conflict between free-trade and fair-trade advocates
D、apparent inability of Arborian industries to produce goods that are competitive in the world market
E、protectionism that characterizes the foreign trade policies of so many of Arboria's trade partners

题目:

Advertisement: Our competitors’ computer salespeople are paid according to the value of the products they sell, so they have a financial incentive to convince you to buy the most expensive units—whether you need them or not. But here at Comput-o-Mart, our salespeople are paid a salary that is not dependent on the value of their sales, so they won’t try to tell you what to buy. That means when you buy a computer at Comput-o-Mart, you can be sure you’re not paying for computing capabilities you don’t need.

Which of the following would, if true, most weaken the advertisement’s reasoning?

选项:

A、Some less-expensive computers actually have greater computing power than more expensive ones.
B、Salespeople who have a financial incentive to make sales generally provide more attentive service than do other salespeople.
C、Extended warranties purchased for less-expensive computers can cost nearly as much as the purchase price of the computer.
D、Comput-o-Mart is open only limited hours, which makes it more difficult for many shoppers to buy computers there than at other retail stores.
E、Comput-o-Mart does not sell any computers that support only basic computing.

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.
