Which of the following most logically completes the argument?
 
United States manufacturers currently produce most of the world's solar-power generators--most of which are exported to Europe.  However, European manufacturers are emerging and probably will ultimately capture much of the European market.  The United States government is funding initiatives intended to encourage use of solar power within the United States.  If these initiatives succeed in increasing the demand for solar-power generators in the United States, United States manufacturers will probably maintain significant production levels, since __________.

选项:

A、some United States manufacturers have been substantially increasing their output over the last several years
B、the efficiency of solar-power generators in converting energy from the Sun into electric power is not improving as fast as it once did
C、just as European manufacturers enjoy certain competitive advantages in Europe, so do United States manufacturers in the United States

题目:

The Earth's rivers constantly carry dissolved salts into its oceans.Clearly,therefore, by taking the resulting increase in salt levels in the oceans over the past hundred years and then determining how many centuries of such increases it would have taken the oceans to reach current salt levels from a hypothetical initial salt-free state, the maximum age of the Earth's oceans can be accurately estimated.
 
Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?

选项:

A、The quantities of dissolved salts deposited by rivers in the Earth's oceans have not been unusually large during the past hundred years.
B、At any given time, all the Earth's rivers have about the same salt levels.
C、There are salts that leach into the Earth's oceans directly from the ocean floor.
D、There is no method superior to that based on salt levels for estimating the maximum age of the Earth's oceans.
E、None of the salts carried into the Earth's oceans by rivers are used up by biological activity in the oceans.

A

题目:

Yeasts capable of leavening bread are widespread, and in the many centuries during which the ancient Egyptians made only unleavened bread, such yeasts must frequently have been mixed into bread doughs accidentally.  The Egyptians, however, did not discover leavened bread until about 3000 B.C.  That discovery roughly coincided with the introduction of a wheat variety that was preferable to previous varieties because its edible kernel could be removed from the husk without first toasting the grain.
 
Which of the following, if true, provides the strongest evidence that the two developments were causally related?

选项:

A、Even after the ancient Egyptians discovered leavened bread and the techniques for reliably producing it were well known, unleavened bread continued to be widely consumed.
B、Only when the Egyptians stopped the practice of toasting grain were their stone-lined grain-toasting pits available for baking bread.
C、Heating a wheat kernel destroys its gluten, a protein that must be present in order for yeast to leaven bread dough.
D、The new variety of wheat, which had a more delicate flavor because it was not toasted, was reserved for the consumption of high officials when it first began to be grown.
E、Because the husk of the new variety of wheat was more easily removed, flour made from it required less effort to produce.

题目:

Many agriculturally intensive areas of the world are beginning to encounter water scarcity problems. As a result, many farmers in these areas are likely to reduce their output as the water supply they need in order to maintain production shrinks. However, one group of farmers in such a region plans to increase their production by implementing techniques for water conservation.

Which of the following, if true, would most strongly support the prediction that the group’s plan will succeed?

选项:

A、Farmers who can gain a larger share of the food market in their regions will be better positioned to control more water resources.
B、Most agricultural practices in areas with water shortages are water-intensive.
C、Other regions of the world not facing water shortages are likely to make up for the reduction in agricultural output.
D、Demand for agricultural products in the group’s region is not expected to decline.
E、More than half the water used for agriculture in the farmers’ region is lost to evaporation or leakage from irrigation channels.

文章:

    Recent feminist scholarship concerning the United States in the 1920's challenges earlier interpretations that assessed the twenties in terms of the unkept "promises" of the women's suffrage movement. This new scholarship disputes the long-held view that because a women's voting bloc did not materialize after women gained the right to vote in 1920, suffrage failed to produce long-term political gains for women. These feminist scholars also challenge the old view that pronounced suffrage a failure for not delivering on the promise that the women's vote would bring about moral, corruption-free governance. Asked whether women's suffrage was a failure, these scholars cite the words of turn-of-the-century social reformer Jane Addams, "Why don't you ask if suffrage in general is failing?"

    In some ways, however, these scholars still present the 1920's as a period of decline. After suffrage, they argue, the feminist movement lost its cohesiveness, and gender consciousness waned. After the mid-1920's, few successes could be claimed by feminist reformers: little could be seen in the way of legislative victories.

    During this decade, however, there was intense activism aimed at achieving increased autonomy for women, broadening the spheres within which they lived their daily lives. Women's organizations worked to establish opportunities for women: they strove to secure for women the full entitlements of citizenship, including the right to hold office and the right to serve on juries.

选项:

A、degree to which the 'promises' of the suffrage movement remained unkept
B、degree to which suffrage for women improved the morality of governance

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?

What was the dealer's approximate profit or loss as a percent of the dealer's initial cost for the 60 cameras?
