NEW QUESTION # 11
Soil salinization-the process by which soil acquires excess soluble salt, adversely affecting pasture or crop growth-is regarded as Australia's most serious environmental problem. Cope, whose 1958 investigation is considered the earliest survey of salt-affected areas in Victoria, hypothesized that surplus rainwater mobilized soluble salt stored in the permeable layer of soil, causing it to accumulate above an impermeable layer and then discharge downslope or onto a valley floor. In the late 1970s, however, Jenkin identified saline water underground as the main and immediate (though not ultimate) source of the salt, and hypothesized that the spread of salinity resulted from a rise in that groundwater. He attributed the rise to a decrease in coverage by water-absorbing trees and other vegetation at some ill-defined point in Australia's post-settlement history.
However, more-recent research suggests there was no rise in post-settlement groundwater levels. Furthermore, soil salinity probably antedated European settlement: early cartographic evidence indicates that some streams were saline when Europeans arrived. Dahlhaus suggests that salt accumulation resulted from marine incursions several million years ago, when parts of Victoria may have been submerged-as well as from transport of salt from the sea by wind and rain. Dahlhaus also notes that various minerals dissolved in groundwater by weathering may have produced salt.
The passage is primarily concerned with discussing

  • A. the degree to which the farming practices of European immigrants affected soil and water in Victoria
  • B. what research suggests concerning how tree coverage in Victoria has affected the absorption of saline water by soil
  • C. what best accounts for soil salinization in Victoria based on the results of research
  • D. the evidence concerning the approximate date at which soil salinity became a problem in Victoria
  • E. the chronology of various failed attempts to understand the dynamics of soil salinization in Victoria

Answer: C


NEW QUESTION # 12
Read the passage carefully and then choose the best answer to each question. Answer the question based upon what is stated or implied in the reading passage.
In Ursula LeGuin's short story "The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas," everyone in the city of Omelas is happy - everyone, that is, except the child who is kept locked in a basement closet. The child is left entirely alone and neglected except for occasional visits from the citizens of Omelas. They come at a certain age as a rite of initiation, to learn the secret of the happiness they enjoy. They come to learn that their happiness has a price: the suffering of an innocent child. In the end, most people stay in Omelas; but a few, unable to bear the fact that they are responsible for the suffering of that child, reject this utopia built upon a utilitarian morality.
Utilitarianism is an ethical theory based upon the belief that happiness is the ultimate good and that people should use happiness as the measure for determining right and wrong. For utilitarian, the right thing to do is that which will bring about the greatest amount of happiness for the greatest number of people.
Furthermore, utilitarianism argues that the intention of people's actions does not matter; only the consequences of their actions are morally relevant, because only the consequences determine how much happiness is produced.
Although many useful social policies and much legislation are founded on this "greatest good" philosophy, utilitarianism can be problematic as a basis for morality. First, happiness is not so easy to quantify, and any measurement is bound to be subjective. Second, in a theory that treats everything except happiness as instrumentally rather than intrinsically valuable, anything - or, more importantly, anyone - can (and should) be treated as a means to an end, if it means greater happiness. This rejects the notion that human beings have their own intrinsic value. Further, utilitarianism puts the burden of the happiness of the masses on the suffering of the few. Is the happiness of many worth the suffering of a few? Why do those few deserve to suffer? Isn't this burden of suffering morally irresponsible? This is the dilemma so brilliantly illustrated in LeGuin's story.
From the author's summary of LeGuin's story, the reader can infer that

  • A. most people in Omelas reject utilitarianism.
  • B. the child willingly sacrifices himself for others.
  • C. everyone in Omelas is happy.
  • D. LeGuin is a popular science-fiction writer.
  • E. most people in Omelas are utilitarian.

Answer: E

Explanation:
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
The author states that "most people stay in Omelas" after they have visited the child. This indicates that they understand and have accepted the utilitarian nature of their society. Only a few walk away and reject the society, so choice b is incorrect. The summary clearly states that everyone except the child and the ones who are "unable to bear the fact that they are responsible for the suffering of that child" are happy, so choice c is incorrect. No evidence indicates that the child willingly sacrifices himself for others (choice d).
The passage makes no reference to LeGuin's popularity or success as a science-fiction writer, so choice e is incorrect.


NEW QUESTION # 13
Passengers must exit airplanes swiftly after accidents, since gases released following accidents are toxic to humans and often explode soon after being released. In order to prevent passenger deaths from gas inhalation, safety officials recommend that passengers be provided with smoke hoods that prevent inhalation of the gases.
Which of the following, if true, constitutes the strongest reason not to require implementation of the safety officials' recommendation?

  • A. Some airlines are unwilling to buy the smoke hoods because they consider them to be prohibitively expensive.
  • B. In many airplane accidents, passengers who were able to reach emergency exits were overcome by toxic gases before they could exit the airplane.
  • C. Some experienced flyers fail to pay attention to the safety instructions given on every commercial flight before takeoff.
  • D. Although the smoke hoods protect passengers from the toxic gases, they can do nothing to prevent the gases from igniting.
  • E. Test evacuations showed that putting on the smoke hoods added considerably to the overall time it took passengers to leave the cabin.

NEW QUESTION # 16
Nearly a decade ago, researchers at Brandeis University conducted an interesting experiment with small robots. The robots were programmed to get as many individual points as possible by finding small metal pucks and taking them to a nest in a corner of the lab. Robots were rewarded with points whenever they found a puck. But their excessive self-interest led to poor performance as robots repeatedly interfered with one another and battled over pucks. Researchers then reprogrammed the robots to share information:
Robots would announce when they found a puck and listen to what other robots had to say. The robots were able to gather twice as many pucks as they had before they were reprogrammed.
Which of the following conclusions can be drawn from the experiment described in this passage?

  • A. Sharing information can dramatically improve the productivity of a group.
  • B. The robots were poorly programmed in the first experiment.
  • C. Self-interest leads to unproductive behavior.
  • D. The researchers were shocked by the difference in results between the two experiments.
  • E. Robots can be taught human behaviors.

Answer: A

Explanation:
Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
The huge difference in results after the robots were reprogrammed makes d the most logical conclusion:
Sharing information can dramatically improve the productivity of a group. Choice a is incorrect for several reasons. First, self-interest and sharing aren't exclusively human behaviors; animals are also driven by self-interest, and many animals also share (information, food, etc.). Second, the robots were programmed, not taught. The experiment doesn't really show that the robots learned anything; they did what they were programmed to do, and as a result, they were more successful. Choice b is incorrect because the passage does not suggest that the robots were incorrectly programmed in the first experiment. Nothing indicates how the researchers felt about the results, so choice c is not a logical conclusion. Although the robots were far less productive when they were self-interested, choice e is not logical because they did indeed gather some pucks and because in many instances self-interest can result in highly productive behavior (e.g., self-preservation).

NEW QUESTION # 18
Using computer techniques, researchers analyze layers of paint that lie buried beneath the surface layers of old paintings. They claim, for example, that additional mountainous scenery once appeared in Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa, which was later painted over. Skeptics reply to these claims, however, that X-ray examinations of the Mona Lisa do not show hidden mountains.
Which of the following, if true, would tend most to weaken the force of the skeptics' objections?

  • A. There is no written or anecdotal record that Leonardo da Vinci ever painted over major areas of his Mona Lisa.
  • B. Infrared photography of the Mona Lisa has revealed no trace of hidden mountainous scenery.
  • C. No one knows for certain what parts of the Mona Lisa may have been painted by da Vinci's assistants rather than by da Vinci himself.
  • D. Painters of da Vinci's time commonly created images of mountainous scenery in the backgrounds of portraits like the Mona Lisa.

NEW QUESTION # 19
Although computers can enhance people's ability to communicate, computer games are a cause of underdeveloped communication skills in children.

The argument depends on which of the following assumptions?

  • A. The mental skills developed through playing computer games do not contribute significantly to children's intellectual development.
  • B. Formal instruction contributes little or nothing to children's acquisition of communication skills.
  • C. Most children have other opportunities, in addition to after-school hours, in which they can choose whether to play computer games or to interact with other people.
  • D. Passive activities such as watching television and listening to music do not hinder the development of communication skills in children.
  • E. Children who do not spend all of their after-school hours playing computer games spend at least some of that time talking with other people.

  • B. Environmental sustainability initiatives that fail to yield profits immediately may nevertheless be in a company's best interest to Implement.
  • C. It is necessary to forgo some profits in order to pay for resources of sufficient quality to produce premium goods.
  • D. A company that makes consistently high profits has less motivation to implement environmental sustainability initiatives than does a company that is not as profitable.
  • E. Emulating multinational companies' environmental sustainability inJtiatjves will most likely result in lower profits than can be obtained otherwise.

Answer: B

Explanation:
Explanation
Many policymakers adopt a macro approach to environmental problems in emerging markets (countries experiencing rapid economic growth): discussing ambitious regulations in global faums and looking to giant multinational companies and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) for insight. But examining what successful companies in these countries are already doing to make growth more environmentally sustainable may make more sense.
One study identifies several such firms that are turning eco-consciousness into a source of competitive advantage. The most salient quality of these highly profitable companies Is that they turn limitations (of resources, labor, and Infrastructure) into opportunities. An Indian cement company suffering water shortages developed the world's most water-efficient cement-making method, using air-cooling rather than water cooling. A Philippines utility reduced its water loss through wastage and illegal tapping from 63 percent (1997) to 12 percent (2010) by making water more affordable for lower-Income consumers. A Chinese company makes air conditioners powered with buildings' waste heat, reducing strain on the electric grid.
The companies also seek to shape their business environment to support sustainable objectives. Some lobby regulators: a Brazilian organic-sugar producer works with Brazil's government to establish an organic certification system. Some form partnerships: Kenya's Equity Bank allies with international groups to reduce its risks when lending to smallholders or single-family farms; a Brazilian cosmetics company works with suppliers to produce sustainable packaging. Some firms also work to reach and educate lower-income consumers, sacrificing short-term profits to create future markets: a Chilean forestry company organizes local carpenters into networks and connects them to low-income customers.
One could quibble with the study. Switzerland's Phil Rosenzweig has argued that management writers are prone to a halo effect: they treat a company's temporary success as proof that It has discovered some eternal principle of good management. That some successful companies have embraced environmental sustainability does not prove that It makes companies successful. Some firms, having prospered, can afford splurging on green Initiatives; some pursue eco-Initiatives for public relations purposes.
Nonetheless, the study Is thought-provoking. Critics argue that environmentalism Is a rich-world luxury, but such fears are overblown. When natural resources are scarce and consumers are cash-strapped, sustainability can be a lucrative business strategy.

NEW QUESTION # 24
The recent upheaval in the office-equipment retail business, in which many small firms have gone out of business, has been attributed to the advent of office equipment "superstores" whose high sales volume keeps their prices low.

NEW QUESTION # 34
Art is visible. However, everything one sees is filtered through certain conditions, some of them historical, and others, natural. The historical conditions include the material, which is used - oil, colors, and the canvas; second, a certain style, i.e., a system of rules by which things visible are submitted a priori. There can be a general style, for example, the style of Impressionism, or a particular style, for example, the individual ways in which two painters, both impressionists, paint. The natural conditions include certain unchanging psychological laws of sight, for instance, the effects of colors or optical illusions.
The conditions of art are nothing but a particular way of interpreting reality. To understand this, one can examine the difference between the classical Greek and the classical Egyptian styles. For the Greeks, the reality of the visible was given by the perspective and the situation in which the object appears; for that reason, they presented a person in his individual movements. For the Egyptians, however, this was only the appearance of a transitory moment, which, according to their beliefs, was not real. Therefore, the Egyptians searched for the permanent essence and the typical character in their depiction of an object. For the Egyptians, Greek art was an illusion; for the Greeks, on the other hand, Egyptian art was unrealistic constructivism.
The way in which reality appears in art must not be regarded on its own. It is affected by many other systems of recognizing reality, including the political, religious, economic, intellectual, and social - in short, all the phenomena of human life. Moreover, art is always of a certain epoch, with its particular conception of reality. Thus, when discussing, for example, the art of ancient myth, of medieval Christianity, or that of the technological age, one must be aware that myth, Christianity, or technology was the most salient feature of the epoch.
It is paradoxical to understand art as some kind of copy of the fields of experience connected with it. So, for example, it is meaningless for the work of art as such if one compares the landscape of a painting with the landscape, which served the artist as his model. Even if the artist had tried to make what he painted as similar as possible to the model he used, the landscape which he saw is only the matter from which something completely different emerges since he has submitted its view to the a priori conditions of art:
namely to the material used (colors, canvas, etc.), to his style, and even to the fact that he paints on a flat surface. Thus one must contemplate a work of art by itself. Even if it is connected to other fields of experience it nevertheless displays something unique which appears in that piece of art and there alone.
According to the passage, classical Egyptians did not present a person in his individual movements

  • A. Because the Greeks believed that the reality of the visible was given by the perspective and the situation in which the object appears
  • B. Because the Greeks did not believe that the reality of the visible was given by the perspective and the situation in which the object appears
  • C. Because for the Egyptians, Greek art was an illusion.
  • D. Because the Egyptians believed that the reality of the visible was given by the perspective and the situation in which the object appears
  • E. Because the Egyptians did not believe that the reality of the visible was given by the perspective and the situation in which the object appears

Answer: E

Explanation:
