题目：

Mel: The official salary for judges has always been too low to attract the best Candidates to the job. The legislature's move to raise the salary has
done nothing to improve the situation, because it was coupled with a ban on receiving money for lectures and teaching engagements. Pat:  No, the raise in salary really does improve the situation. Since very few judges teach or give lectures, the ban will have little or no negative effect.

Pat's response to Mel is inadequate in that it

B、mistakenly takes the cause of a certain change to be an effect of that change
C、attempts to argue that a certain change will have a positive effect merely by pointing to the absence of negative effects
D、simply denies Mel's claim without putting forward any evidence in support of that denial

文章：

    Prior to 1965 geologists assumed that the two giant rock plates meeting at the San Andreas Fault generate heat through friction as they grind past each other, but in 1965 Henyey found that temperatures in drill holes near the fault were not as elevated as had been expected. Some geologists wondered whether the absence of friction-generated heat could be explained by the kinds of rock composing the fault. Geologists' pre-1965 assumptions concerning heat generated in the fault were based on calculations about common varieties of rocks, such as limestone and granite; but "weaker" materials, such as clays,had already been identified in samples retrieved from the fault zone. Under normal conditions, rocks composed of clay produce far less friction than do other rock types.

    In 1992 Byerlee tested whether these materials would produce friction 10 to 15 kilometers below the Earth's surface. Byerlee found that when clay samples were subjected to the thousands of atmospheres of pressure they would encounter deep inside the Earth, they produced as much friction as was produced by other rock types. The harder rocks push against each other, the hotter they become; in other words, pressure itself, not only the rocks' properties, affects frictional heating. Geologists therefore wondered whether the friction between the plates was being reduced by pockets of pressurized water within the fault that push the plates away from each other.

题目：

The passage suggests which of the following regarding Henyey's findings about temperature in the San Andreas Fault?

选项:

A、Scientists have yet to formulate a definitive explanation for Henyey's findings.
B、Recent research suggests that Henyey's explanation for the findings should be modified.
C、Henyey's findings had to be recalculated in light of Byerlee's 1992 experiment.
D、Henyey's findings provided support for an assumption long held by geologists.
E、Scientists have been unable to duplicate Henyey's findings using more recent experimental methods.

A

题目：

Plant scientists have been able to genetically engineer vegetable seeds to produce crops that are highly resistant to insect damage. Although
these seeds currently cost more than conventional seeds, their cost is likely to decline. Moreover, farmers planting them can use far less pesticide, and most consumers prefer vegetables grown with less pesticide,therefore, for crops for which these seeds can be developed, their use is likely to become the norm.
 
which of the following would be most useful to know in evaluating the argument above?

选项:

A、Whether plant scientists have developed insect-resistant seeds For every crop that is currently grown commercially
B、Whether farmers typically use agricultural pesticides in larger Amounts than is necessary to prevent crop damage.
C、Whether plants grown from the new genetically engineered seeds Can be kept completely free of insect damage.
D、Whether seeds genetically engineered to produce insect-resistant crops generate significantly lower per acre crop yields than do currently used seeds.
E、Whether most varieties of crops currently grown commercially have Greater natural resistance to insect damage than did similar vari-eties in the past.

文章：

Line         Because the framers of the United States
  Constitution (written in 1787) believed that protecting
  property rights relating to inventions would encourage
  the new nation’s economic growth, they gave
(5) Congress—the national legislature—a constitutional
  mandate to grant patents for inventions. The resulting
  patent system has served as a model for those in
  other nations. Recently, however, scholars have
  questioned whether the American system helped
(10) achieve the framers’ goals. These scholars have
  contended that from 1794 to roughly 1830, American
  inventors were unable to enforce property rights
  because judges were “antipatent” and routinely
  invalidated patents for arbitrary reasons. This
(15) argument is based partly on examination of court
  decisions in cases where patent holders (“patentees”)
  brought suit alleging infringement of their patent
  rights. In the 1820s, for instance, 75 percent
  of verdicts were decided against the patentee.
(20) The proportion of verdicts for the patentee began to
  increase in the 1830s, suggesting to these scholars
  that judicial attitudes toward patent rights began
  shifting then.
       Not all patent disputes in the early nineteenth
(25) century were litigated, however, and litigated
  cases were not drawn randomly from the
  population of disputes. Therefore the rate of
  verdicts in favor of patentees cannot be used
  by itself to gauge changes in judicial attitudes
(30) or enforceability of patent rights. If early judicial
  decisions were prejudiced against patentees, one
  might expect that subsequent courts—allegedly
  more supportive of patent rights—would reject
  the former legal precedents. But pre-1830
(35) cases have been cited as frequently as later
  decisions, and they continue to be cited today,
  suggesting that the early decisions, many of
  which clearly declared that patent rights were
  a just recompense for inventive ingenuity,
(40) provided a lasting foundation for patent law.
  The proportion of judicial decisions in favor of
  patentees began to increase during the 1830s
  because of a change in the underlying population
  of cases brought to trial. This change was partly
(45) due to an 1836 revision to the patent system:
  an examination procedure, still in use today, was
  instituted in which each application is scrutinized
  for its adherence to patent law. Previously,
  patents were automatically granted upon payment
(50) of a $30 fee.


题目：

It can be inferred from the passage that the frequency with which pre-1830 cases have been cited in court decisions is an indication that

选项:

A、judicial support for patent rights was strongest in the period before 1830
B、judicial support for patent rights did not increase after 1830
C、courts have returned to judicial standards that prevailed before 1830
D、verdicts favoring patentees in patent-infringement suits did not increase after 1830
E、judicial bias against patentees persisted after 1830

B

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?
