Which of the following most logically completes the passage?
 
On the whole, scientists do their most creative work before age forty, a tendency that has been taken to show that aging carries with it a loss of creative capacity.  An alternative explanation is that by age forty most scientists have worked in their field for fifteen or more years and that by then they have exhausted the opportunity for creative work in that field.  Supporting this explanation is the finding that ______.

B、a disproportionately large number of the scientists who produce highly creative work beyond age forty entered their field at an older age than is common
C、many scientists temper their own expectations of what they can achieve in their research work by their belief that their creativity will decline as they age

题目:

At present the Hollywood Restaurant has only standard-height tables.  However, many customers come to watch the celebrities who frequent the Hollywood, and they would prefer tall tables with stools because such seating would afford a better view of the celebrities.  Moreover, diners seated on stools typically do not stay as long as diners seated at standard-height tables.  Therefore, if the Hollywood replaced some of its seating with high tables and stools, its profits would increase.
The argument is vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that it gives reason to believe that it is likely that

选项:

A、some celebrities come to the Hollywood to be seen, and so might choose to sit at the tall tables if they were available
B、the price of meals ordered by celebrities dining at the Hollywood compensates for the longer time, if any, they spend lingering over their meals
C、a customer of the Hollywood who would choose to sit at a tall table would be an exception to the generalization about lingering
D、a restaurant's customers who spend less time at their meals typically order less expensive meals than those who remain at their meals longer
E、 with enough tall tables to accommodate all the Hollywood's customers interested in such seating, there would be no view except of other tall tables

文章:

Mourdet Winery: Danville Winery's new wine was introduced to compete with our most popular wine, which is sold in a distinctive tall, black bottle. Danville uses a similar bottle. Thus, it is likely that many customers intending to buy our wine will mistakenly buy theirs instead.Danville Winery: Not so. The two bottles can be readily distinguished: the label on ours, but not on theirs, is gold colored.

题目:

Which of the following, if true, most undermines Danville Winery's response?

选项:

A、Gold is the background color on the label of many of the wines produced by Danville Winery. When the bottles are viewed side by side, Danville Winery's bottle is perceptibly taller than Mourdet Winery's.
B、Danville Winery, unlike Mourdet Winery, displays its wine's label prominently in advertisements. 
C、It is common for occasional purchasers to buy a bottle of wine on the basis of a general impression of the most obvious feature of the bottle. 
D、Many popular wines are sold in bottles of a standard design.

题目:

Plantings of cotton bioengineered to produce its own insecticide against bollworms, a major cause of crop failure, sustained little bollworm damage until this year.  This year the plantings are being seriously damaged by bollworms.  Bollworms, however, are not necessarily developing resistance to the cotton's insecticide.  Bollworms breed on corn, and last year more corn than usual was planted throughout cotton-growing regions.  So it is likely that the cotton is simply being overwhelmed by corn-bred bollworms.
 
In evaluating the argument, which of the following would it be most useful to establish?

选项:

A、Whether corn could be bioengineered to produce the insecticide
B、Whether plantings of cotton that does not produce the insecticide are suffering unusually extensive damage from bollworms this year
C、Whether other crops that have been bioengineered to produce their own insecticide successfully resist the pests against which the insecticide was to protect them
D、Whether plantings of bioengineered cotton are frequently damaged by insect pests other than bollworms
E、Whether there are insecticides that can be used against bollworms that have developed resistance to the insecticide produced by the bioengineered cotton

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.

A photography dealer ordered 60 Model X cameras to be sold for $250 each, which represents a 20 percent markup over the dealer's initial cost for each camera. Of the cameras ordered, 6 were never sold and were returned to the manufacturer for a refund of 50 percent of the dealer's initial cost. What was the dealer's approximate profit or loss as a percent of the dealer's initial cost for the 60 cameras?
