题目:

Many people suffer an allergic reaction to certain sulfites, including those that are commonly added to wine as preservatives.  However, since there are several wine makers who add sulfites to none of the wines they produce, people who would like to drink wine but are allergic to sulfites can drink wines produced by these wine makers without risking an allergic reaction to sulfites. 
 

Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?

选项:

A、These wine makers have been able to duplicate the preservative effect produced by adding sulfites by means that do not involve adding any potentially allergenic substances to their wine.
B、Not all forms of sulfite are equally likely to produce the allergic reactions.
C、Wine is the only beverage to which sulfites are commonly added.
D、Apart from sulfites, there are no substances commonly present in wine that give rise to an allergic reaction.
E、Sulfites are not naturally present in the wines produced by these wine makers in amounts large enough to produce an allergic reaction in someone who drinks these wines.

题目:

In response to mounting pubic concern, an airplane manufacturer implemented a program with the well-publicized goal of reducing by half the total yearly amount of hazardous waste generated by its passenger-jet division.  When the program began in 1994, the division's hazardous waste output was 90 pounds per production worker; last year it was 40 pounds per production worker. Clearly, therefore, charges that the manufacturer's program has not met its goal are false.
 
Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?

选项:

A、The amount of nonhazardous waste generated each year by the passenger-jet division has not increased significantly since 1994.
B、At least as many passenger jets were produced by the division last year as had been produced in 1994.
C、Since 1994, other divisions in the company have achieved reductions in hazardous waste output that are at least equal to that achieved in the passenger-jet division.
D、The average number of weekly hours per production worker in the passenger-jet division was not significantly greater last year than it was in 1994.
E、The number of production workers assigned to the passenger-jet division was not significantly less in 1994 than it was last year.

题目:

When storing Renaissance oil paintings, museums conform to standards that call for careful control of the surrounding temperature and humidity, with variations confined within narrow margins.  Maintaining this environment is very costly, and recent research shows that even old oil paint is unaffected by wide fluctuations in temperature and humidity.  Therefore, museums could relax their standards and save money without endangering their Renaissance oil paintings.
 
Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?

选项:

A、Renaissance paintings were created in conditions involving far greater fluctuations in temperature and humidity than those permitted by current standards.
B、Under the current standards that museums use when storing Renaissance oil paintings, those paintings do not deteriorate at all.
C、Museum collections typically do not contain items that are more likely to be vulnerable to fluctuations in temperature and humidity than Renaissance oil paintings.
D、None of the materials in Renaissance oil paintings other than the paint are vulnerable enough to relatively wide fluctuations in temperature and humidity to cause damage to the paintings.
E、Most Renaissance oil paintings are stored in museums located in regions near the regions where the paintings were created.

题目:

Whales originated in the freshwater lakes and rivers of ancient Asia about sixty million years ago.  Not until about ten million years later did species of whales develop specialized kidneys enabling them to drink salt water.  Although fossil evidence shows that some early whale species that lacked such kidneys sometimes swam in the Earth's saltwater oceans, these species must have had to return frequently to freshwater rivers to drink.
 
Which of the following is most strongly supported by the information given?

选项:

A、Fossils of whale species dating from between sixty million and fifty million years ago will not be found on continents that were at the time separated from ancient Asia by wide expanses of ocean.
B、Among whale fossils that date from later than about fifty million years ago, none are fossils of whale species that drank only fresh water.
C、Fossils of whale species that drank fresh water will not be found in close proximity to fossils of whale species that drank salt water.
D、The earliest whales that drank salt water differed from fresh-water-drinking whales only in their possession of specialized kidneys.
E、Between sixty million and fifty million years ago, the freshwater lakes and rivers in which whales originated were gradually invaded by salt water.

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?
