题目:

Parland's alligator population has been declining in recent years, primarily because of hunting. Alligators prey heavily on a species of freshwater fish that is highly valued as food by Parlanders, who had hoped that the decline in the alligator population would lead to an increase in the numbers of these fish available for human consumption. Yet the population of this fish species has also declined, even though the annual number caught for human consumption has not increased.

Which of the following, if true, most helps to explain the decline in the population of the fish species?

选项:

A、The decline in the alligator population has meant that fishers can work in some parts of lakes and rivers that were formerly too dangerous.
B、Over the last few years, Parland's commercial fishing enterprises have increased the number of fishing boats they use.
C、The main predator of these fish is another species of fish on which alligators also prey.
D、Many Parlanders who hunt alligators do so because of the high market price of alligator skins, not because of the threat alligators pose to the fish population.
E、In several neighboring countries through which Parland's rivers also flow, alligators are at risk of extinction as a result of extensive hunting.

文章:

Technological improvements and reduced equipment costs have made converting solar energy directly into electricity far more cost-efficient in the last decade. However, the threshold of economic viability for solar power (that is, the price per barrel to which oil would have to rise in order for new solar power plants to be more economical than new oil-fired power plants) is unchanged at thirty-five dollars.

题目:

Which of the following, if true, does most to help explain why the increased cost-efficiency of solar power has not decreased its threshold of economic viability?

选项:

A、The cost of oil has fallen dramaticallyThe reduction in the cost of solar-power equipment has occurred despite increased raw material costs for that equipment
B、Technological changes have increased the efficiency of oil-fired power plants. 
C、Most electricity is generated by coal-fired or nuclear, rather than oil-fired, power plants.
D、When the price of oil increases, reserves of oil not previously worth exploiting become economically viable.

题目:

Rainwater contains hydrogen of a heavy form called deuterium. The deuterium content of wood reflects the deuterium content of rainwater available to trees during their growth. Wood from trees that grew between 16,000 and 24,000 years ago in North America contains significantly more deuterium than wood from trees growing today. But water trapped in several North American caves that formed during that same early period contains significantly less deuterium than rainwater in North America contains today.

Which of the following, if true, most helps to reconcile the two findings?

选项:

A、There is little deuterium in the North American caves other than the deuterium in the water trapped there.
B、Exposure to water after a tree has died does not change the deuterium content of the wood.
C、Industrialization in North America over the past 100 years has altered the deuterium content of rain.
D、Trees draw on shallow groundwater from rain that falls during their growth, whereas water trapped in caves may have fallen as rainwater thousands of years before the caves formed.
E、Wood with a high deuterium content is no more likely to remain preserved for long periods than is wood with a low deuterium content.

题目:

The passage provides information in support of which of the following assertions?

选项:

A、The disadvantages of an adaptation to a particular feature of an environment often outweigh the advantages of such an adaptation.
B、An organism's reaction to being placed in an environment to which it is not well adapted can sometimes illustrate the problems that have been solved by the adaptations of organisms indigenous to that environment.
C、The effectiveness of an organism's adaptation to a particular feature of its environment can only be evaluated by examining the effectiveness with which organisms of other species have adapted to a similar feature of a different environment.
D、Organisms of the same species that inhabit strikingly different environments will often adapt in remarkably similar ways to the few features of those environments that are common.
E、Different species of organisms living in the same environment will seldom adapt to features of that environment in the same way.

题目:

Often patients with ankle fractures that are stable, and thus do not require surgery, are given follow-up x-rays because their orthopedists are concerned about possibly having misjudged the stability of the fracture. When a number of follow-up x-rays were reviewed, however, all the fractures that had initially been judged stable were found to have healed correctly. Therefore, it is a waste of money to order follow-up x-rays of ankle fractures initially judged stable.

Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument?

选项:

A、
A. Doctors who are general practitioners rather than orthopedists are less likely than orthopedists to judge the stability of an ankle fracture correctly.
B、
B. Many ankle injuries for which an initial x-ray is ordered are revealed by the x-ray not to involve any fracture of the ankle.
C、
C. X-rays of patients of many different orthopedists working in several hospitals were reviewed.
D、
D. The healing of ankle fractures that have been surgically repaired is always checked by means of a follow-up x-ray.
E、
E. Orthopedists routinely order follow-up x-rays for fractures of bones other than ankle bones.

Which of the following, if true, most helps explain the discrepancy in the relationships described by the economist?

选项:

A、There are many consumer goods, such as household appliances, that are produced in Country X to be sold in the Country Y market.
B、The volume of trade between Country X and Country Y is increasing rapidly in both directions.
C、The economy of Country Y is recovering from a downturn that affected both Country Y and Country X.

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.
