题目:

Critics of certain pollution-control regulations have claimed that the money spent over the last decade in order to reduce emissions of carbon monoxide and of volatile organic compounds has been wasted.  The evidence they offer in support of this claim might appear compelling:  despite the money spent, annual emissions of these pollutants have been increasing steadily.  This evidence is far from adequate, however, since over the last decade a substantial number of new industrial facilities that emit these pollutants have been built.
 
In the reasoning given, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?

选项:

A、The first identifies a claim that the reasoning seeks to show is false; the second is evidence that has been cited by others in support of that claim.
B、The first identifies a claim that the reasoning seeks to show is false; the second is a position for which the reasoning seeks to provide support.
C、The first is a position that the reasoning contends is inadequately supported by the evidence; the second is a position for which the reasoning seeks to provide support.
D、The first is a position that the reasoning contends is inadequately supported by the evidence; the second is evidence used to support the reasoning's contention.
E、The first is a position that the reasoning contends is inadequately supported by the evidence; the second is evidence that has been used to support that position.

文章:

Line         Scientists long believed that two nerve clusters in
  the human hypothalamus, called suprachiasmatic
  nuclei (SCNs), were what controlled our circadian
  rhythms. Those rhythms are the biological cycles
(5) that recur approximately every 24 hours in
  synchronization with the cycle of sunlight and
  darkness caused by Earth’s rotation. Studies have
  demonstrated that in some animals, the SCNs
  control daily fluctuations in blood pressure, body
(10) temperature, activity level, and alertness, as well as
  the nighttime release of the sleep-promoting agent
  melatonin. Furthermore, cells in the human retina
  dedicated to transmitting information about light
  levels to the SCNs have recently been discovered.
(15)      Four critical genes governing circadian cycles
  have been found to be active in every tissue,
  however, not just the SCNs, of flies, mice, and
  humans. In addition, when laboratory rats that
  usually ate at will were fed only once a day, peak
(20) activity of a clock gene in their livers shifted by
  12 hours, whereas the same clock gene in the
  SCNs remained synchronized with light cycles. While
  scientists do not dispute the role of the SCNs in
  controlling core functions such as the regulation of
(25) body temperature and blood pressure, scientists
  now believe that circadian clocks in other organs
  and tissues may respond to external cues other than
  light—including temperature changes—that recur
  regularly every 24 hours.


题目:

The author of the passage would probably agree with which of the following statements about the SCNs?

选项:

A、The SCNs are found in other organs and tissues of the body besides the hypothalamus.
B、The SCNs play a critical but not exclusive role in regulating circadian rhythms.
C、The SCNs control clock genes in a number of tissues and organs throughout the body.
D、The SCNs are a less significant factor in regulating blood pressure than scientists once believed.
E、The SCNs are less strongly affected by changes in light levels than they are by other external cues.

题目:

Since it has become known that several of a bank’s top executives have been buying shares in their own bank, the bank’s depositors, who had been worried by rumors that the bank faced impending financial collapse, have been greatly relieved. They reason that, since top executives evidently have faith in the bank’s financial soundness, those worrisome rumors must be false. Such reasoning might well be overoptimistic, however, since corporate executives have been known to buy shares in their own company in a calculated attempt to dispel negative rumors about the company’s health.

In the argument given, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles?

选项:

A、The first describes evidence that has been taken as supporting a conclusion; the second gives a reason for questioning that support.
B、The first describes evidence that has been taken as supporting a conclusion; the second states a contrary conclusion that is the main conclusion of the argument.
C、The first provides evidence in support of the main conclusion of the argument; the second states that conclusion.
D、The first describes the circumstance that the argument as a whole seeks to explain; the second gives the explanation that the argument seeks to establish.
E、The first describes the circumstance that the argument as a whole seeks to explain; the second provides evidence in support of the explanation that the argument seeks to establish.

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?

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?
