题目：

The country of Ertland has never imported apples in any significant quantity because consumers there generally prefer the unique texture of Ertland-grown apples.  Nevertheless, apple growers from Kosolia, a neighboring country, plan to sell their apples in Ertland by selling Kosolia-grown apples at half the price of local apples and promoting them as a nourishing, low-cost alternative.
 
Which of the following, if true, casts most doubt on the viability of the plan by Kosolia's apple growers to sell their apples in Ertland?

选项:

A、Most of the varieties of apples grown in Ertland were originally derived from common Kosolian varieties.
B、Consumers in Ertland tend to spend about the same proportion of their income on fresh fruits and vegetables as do consumers in Kosolia.
C、At times in the past, Ertland has exported significant quantities of apples to Kosolia.
D、Some varieties of apples grown in Kosolia can be harvested throughout most of the year, whereas the varieties grown in Ertland can be harvested only during two months of the year.
E、profit of Ertland-grown apples are high enough in Ertland that growers, wholesalers, and retailers there could easily afford to reduce the price at which these apples are sold.

Line         Much research has been devoted to investigating
  what motivates consumers to try new products.
  Previous consumer research suggests that both the
  price of a new product and the way it is advertised
(5) affect consumers’ perceptions of the product’s
  performance risk (the possibility that the product will
  not function as consumers expect and/or will not
  provide the desired benefits). Some of this research
  has concluded that a relatively high price will reduce
(10) a consumer’s perception of the performance risk
  associated with purchasing a particular product,
  while other studies have reported that price has little
  or no effect on perceived performance risk. These
  conflicting findings may simply be due to the nature
(15) of product advertisements: a recent study indicates
  that the presentation of an advertised message has a
  marked effect on the relationship between price and
  perceived performance risk.
       Researchers have identified consumers’ perception
(20) of the credibility of the source of an advertised
  message—i.e., the manufacturer—as another factor
  affecting perceived performance risk: one study
  found that the greater the source credibility, the lower
  the consumer’s perception of the risk of purchasing
(25) an advertised new product. However, past research
  suggests that the relationship between source
  credibility and perceived performance risk may be
  more complex: source credibility may interact with
  price in a subtle way to affect consumers’ judgments
(30) of the performance risk associated with an advertised
  product.


题目：

According to the passage, the studies referred to in line 12 reported which of the following about the effect of price on consumers’ perception of the performance risk associated with a new product?

选项:

A、Although most consumers regard price as an important factor, their perception of the performance risk associated with a new product is ultimately determined by the manufacturer’s reputation.
B、Price interacts with the presentation of an advertised message to affect perceived performance risk.
C、Price does not significantly affect consumers’ perception of the performance risk associated with a new product.
D、Consumers tend to regard price as more important than the manufacturer’s credibility when they are buying from that manufacturer for the first time.
E、Consumers are generally less concerned about a new product’s performance risk when that product is relatively expensive.

文章：

Line In 1971 researchers hoping to predict earthquakes in
the short term by identifying precursory phenomena
(those that occur a few days before large quakes
but not otherwise) turned their attention to changes
(5) in seismic waves that had been detected prior to
earthquakes. An explanation for such changes was
offered by “dilatancy theory,” based on a well-known
phenomenon observed in rocks in the laboratory:
as stress builds, microfractures in rock close,
(10) decreasing the rock’s volume. But as stress
continues to increase, the rock begins to crack and
expand in volume, allowing groundwater to seep in,
weakening the rock. According to this theory, such
effects could lead to several precursory phenomena in
(15) the field, including a change in the velocity of seismic
waves, and an increase in small, nearby tremors.
Researchers initially reported success in identifying
these possible precursors, but subsequent analyses
of their data proved disheartening. Seismic waves
(20) with unusual velocities were recorded before some
earthquakes, but while the historical record confirms
that most large earthquakes are preceded by minor
tremors, these foreshocks indicate nothing about
the magnitude of an impending quake and are
(25) indistinguishable from other minor tremors that occur
without large earthquakes.
In the 1980s, some researchers turned their
efforts from short-term to long-term prediction.
Noting that earthquakes tend to occur repeatedly in
(30) certain regions, Lindh and Baker attempted to identify
patterns of recurrence, or earthquake cycles, on which
to base predictions. In a study of earthquake-prone
sites along the San Andreas Fault, they determined
that quakes occurred at intervals of approximately 22
(35) years near one site and concluded that there was a
95 percent probability of an earthquake in that area
by 1992. The earthquake did not occur within the time
frame predicted, however.
Evidence against the kind of regular
(40) earthquake cycles that Lindh and Baker tried
to establish has come from a relatively new
field, paleoseismology. Paleoseismologists
have unearthed and dated geological features
such as fault scarps that were caused by
(45) earthquakes thousands of years ago. They have
determined that the average interval between ten
earthquakes that took place at one site along the
San Andreas Fault in the past two millennia was
132 years, but individual intervals ranged greatly,
(50) from 44 to 332 years.

题目：

The author implies which of the following about the ability of the researchers mentioned in line 18 to predict earthquakes?

选项:

A、
They can identify when an earthquake is likely to occur but not how large it will be.
B、
They can identify the regions where earthquakes are likely to occur but not when they will occur.
C、
They are unable to determine either the time or the place that earthquakes are likely to occur.
D、
They are likely to be more accurate at short-term earthquake prediction than at long-term earthquake prediction.
E、
They can determine the regions where earthquakes have occurred in the past but not the regions where they are likely to occur in the future.

文章：

Comparable worth, as a standard applied to eliminate inequities in pay, insists that the values of certain tasks performed in dissimilar jobs can be compared.  In the last decade, this approach has become a critical social policy issue, as large numbers of private-sector firms and industries as well as federal, state, and local governmental entities have adopted comparable worth policies or begun to consider doing so.
 
This widespread institutional awareness of comparable worth indicates increased public awareness that pay inequities--that is, situations in which pay is not "fair" because it does not reflect the true value of a job--exist in the labor market.  However, the question still remains:  have the gains already made in pay equity under comparable worth principles been of a precedent-setting nature or are they mostly transitory, a function of concessions made by employers to mislead female employees into believing that they have made long-term pay equity gains?
 
Comparable worth pay adjustments are indeed precedent-setting.  Because of the principles driving them, other mandates that can be applied to reduce or eliminate unjustified pay gaps between male and female workers have not remedied perceived pay inequities satisfactorily for the litigants in cases in which men and women hold different jobs.  But whenever comparable worth principles are applied to pay schedules, perceived unjustified pay differences are eliminated.  In this sense, then, comparable worth is more comprehensive than other mandates, such as the Equal Pay Act of 1963 and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.  Neither compares tasks in dissimilar jobs (that is, jobs across occupational categories) in an effort to determine whether or not what is necessary to perform these tasks--know-how, problem-solving, and accountability--can be quantified in terms of its dollar value to the employer.  Comparable worth, on the other hand, takes as its premise that certain tasks in dissimilar jobs may require a similar amount of training, effort, and skill; may carry similar responsibility; may be carried on in an environment having a similar impact upon the worker; and may have a similar dollar value to the employer.

题目：

According to the passage, which of the following is true of comparable worth as a policy?

选项:

A、Comparable worth policy decisions in pay-inequity cases have often failed to satisfy the complainants.
B、Comparable worth policies have been applied to both public-sector and private-sector employee pay schedules.
C、Comparable worth as a policy has come to be widely criticized in the past decade.
D、Many employers have considered comparable worth as a policy but very few have actually adopted it.
E、Early implementations of comparable worth policies resulted in only transitory gains in pay equity.

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.
 
Which of the following, if discovered in experiments using artificially moved prey insects, would support one of the two hypotheses and undermine the other?
