Section1 Question2
The following appeared in a memo from the vice president of marketing at Dura-
Sock, Inc
“A recent study of our customers suggests that our company is wasting the money it
spends on its patented Endure manufacturing process, which ensures that our socks
are strong enough to last for two years.We have always advertised our use of the
Endure process, but the new study shows that despite our socks durability our average
customer actually purchases new Dura-Socks every three months. Furthermore, our
customers surveyed in our largest market, northeastern United States cities, say that
they most value Dura-Socks’ stylish appearance and availability in many colors.
These findings suggest that we can increase our profits by discontinuing use of the
Endure manufacturing process.
Write a response in which you examine the stated and/or unstated assumptions of the
argument. Be sure to explain how the argument depends on these assumptions and
what the implications are for the argument if the assumptions prove unwarranted.

Questions 7 and 8 are based on this passage

In North America, crows have historically antagonized humans by ravaging corn
crops, but advancing urbanization has recently made humans more tolerant of crows,
and crows’ wariness has accordingly diminished. The future demeanor of the
American crow (Corvus brachyrhynchos) is suggested by intercontinental analogy to
india’s house crow (Corvus splendens) which has lived for many centuries in an
essentially unarmed, animal-friendly, and densely populated culture Its audacity
extends to stealing food from street vendors and entering dwellings to remove food
from the table. The extreme watchfulness of the American crow has grown out of a
long history of persecution. As people treat crows with insouciance rather than
aggressionless wanness results in reproductive success, and another kind of corvine
conduct asserts itself.
Section3 Question7
Which of the following generalizations most directly underlies the authors central
point?
A.Two different species of the same genus of birds may differ greatly in their
characteristic behavior for reasons that have nothing to do with the environment in
which they live.
B.Degrees of wariness tend to differ significantly among individuals of the same
animal species as well as between different species within the same genus
C.As human populations become more urbanized humans become less attuned to the
behavior of animals in their environment in ways that can negatively affect animals’
reproductive success.
D.A given behavioral trait can have either a positive or negative effect on an animal’s
reproductive success depending on the behavior of humans in the animal’s
environment.
E.Human attitudes toward a given animal species tend to be somewhat arbitrary and
are subject to change over time.
Section3 Question8
10
The author implies which of the following about the “insouciance” mentioned in the
passage?
A.It reflects an advance in our understanding of crows behavior.

B.It has increased in one region of the world as urbanization has grown.
C.It is likely to increase in a particular region as farming in that region increases.
D.It reflects the influence of one culture’s attitudes toward animals on those of
another culture
E.It can have a positive influence on a given species reproductive success in some
contexts but a negative effect in others.

In their book on women writers and the nineteenth-century literary imagination,
Sandra M.Gilbert and Susan Gubar revise Harold Bloom’s model of literary
precedence to make it applicable to the female writer. Bloom defines an author’s
inevitable dependence on tradition as necessarily anxious because writers deny
obligation to precursors; they desire originality yet know that true originality is
impossible to achieve. This explanation is based on a male paradigm that does not fit
nineteenth-century women a woman writer had few precursors who resembled
herself. Gilbert and Gubar therefore posit that for the woman writer the "anxiety of
influence became a "primary anxiety of authorship. The nineteenth-century female
writers limited relationship to her maternal literary predecessors and alienation from
the male literary traditions led to her feelings of anxiety and isolation.
Both Bloom’s and Gilbert and Gubar’s paradigms of anxiety and influence need
further revision once we consider the contemporary woman author Virginia Woolf a
twentieth-century novelist speaks of literary influence on women writers as “thinking
back through their mothers." The contemporary woman writer seeks her precursors
with enthusiasm to enable her own enterprise. These theoretical perspectives are
inadequate however when applied to Black women writers, for not only do they
neglect the racial pressures experienced by these writers, but they also fail to provide
an adequate explanation of the contemporary Black woman writer’s debt to the oral
storytelling that is her literary heritage Since racial pressures forbade the learning of
reading and writing, early Black women storytellers used their own voices to create
rich narratives. The contemporary Black woman writer seeks out her precursors in
order to restore the forgotten tradition of oral storytelling rather than to express
anxiety about the obscuring of her orginality.
A study of the relationship of Alice Walkera contemporary Black writerto Zora
Neale Hurstona Black female writer of the 1940s, clarifies the relationship of gender
and race in a revised theory of literary influence. In numerous and diverse ways
Walker proclaims Hurston her precursor and appears to find that precedence a source
not of anxiety but of nurturanch Walker writes that if she were condemned to live on a
desert island with only ten books, she would unhesitatingly choose as one Hurstons
Their Eves Were Watching God. According to Walker, "there is not a book more
11
important to me than this one.” The liveliness of janie Crawford, Hurston’s Black
heroine gives rise to Walker’s sense of her own resemblance to Janie and a similar
sense of shared life and knowledge makes Walker identify with Hurston as well. Alice
Walker’s understanding of literary influence, then appears not at all melancholy or
anxiety-laden. Walker desianates as her precursor an author of Black legend and
Black female liberation, a woman who enables female possibility.
Section3 Question9
According to the passage, which of the following explains why the nineteenth-century
woman writer experienced anxiety?
A.Her book might be criticized as being a copy of a previous writer’s work.

Section3 Question17
The 1996 recruitment brochure from a college reported that course enrollments over
the ten academic years ending August 31, 1996, averaged 59.4 students per course.
The colleges 1997 brochure reported that course enrollments over the ten academic
years ending August 31,1997, averaged 59.4 students per course but also reported that
average course enrollment for the 1996-1997 academic year was well below that
level. Therefore, at least one of these three pieces of information is erroneous.
The argument given is flawed because it overlooks the possibility that
A.the total enrollment of the college increased over the ten academic years ending
August 31, 1996
14
B.competing colleges have experienced very little change in their average course
enrollment
C.mistakes were present in the data on which the 1996 brochure was based but were
corrected by the time that the 1997 brochure was written
D.the number of courses offered in the 1995-1996 academic year was greater than the
number offered in the 1996-1997 academic year
E.average course enrollment in the first of the ten academic years ending August 31,
1996, was lower than the average over the other nine years

Some archaeologists speculate that the Americas might have been initially colonized
between 40,000 and 25.000 years ago. However to support this theoryit is necessary
to explain the absence of generally accepted habitation sites for that time interval in
what is now the United States. Australia, which has a smaller land area than the
United States, has many such sites supporting the generally accepted claim that the
continent was colonized by humans at least 40,000 years ago. Australia is less densely
populated (resulting in lower chances of discovering sites) and with its overall greater
aridity would have presented conditions less favorable for hunter gatherer occupation.
Proportionally at least as much land area has been lost from the coastal reaions of
Australia because of postglacial sea-level rise as in the United States, so any coastal
archaeological record in Australia should have been depleted about as much as a
coastal record in the United States. Since there are so many resource-rich years leadin
a inland from the United States coastline it seems implausible that a growing
population of humans would have confined itself to coasts for thousands of years. If
inhabitants were present 25,000 years ago, the chances of their appearing in the
archaeological record would seem to be greater than for Australia.
Section3 Question18
The passage is primarily concerned with doing which of the following?
A.Presenting an objection to a claim

B.Accounting for an apparent anomaly
C.Outlining an alternative interpretation
D.Correcting a particular misconception
E.Questioning the validity of a comparison
Section3 Question19
The author of the passage notes Australia’s “smaller land area” in order to
A.suggest that the number of habitation sites from between 40,000 and 25,000 years
ago that have been found in Australia is somewhat surprising
B.help show why the absence of habitation sites from between 40,000 and 2,000 years
ago in what is now the United States is problematic
15
C.indicate that Australia is not exactly comparable to the United States in size
D.emphasize a difference between Australia and the United States in population
density
E.help explain a difference between Australia and the United States in the number of
habitation sites from between 40000 and 25000 years ago
Section3 Question20
The author of the passage implies that in what is now the United States,
archaeological evidence of inhabitation in the period from 40,000 to 25,000 years ago
is lacking because that region
A.had its oldest habitation sites inundated following a postglacial rise in sea level
B.has many resource-rich rivers that facilitated the dispersal of its early inhabitants
from an initial concentration in coastal areas
C.was sparsely populated until about 25,000 years ago
D.was colonized less than 25,000 years ago
E.was inhabited only by hunter gatherers until 25,000 years ago

Critical neglect of Emily Bronte’s poetry is long standing and once resulted from an
idea of Victorian poetry as essentially a male preserve Feminist critics have
challenged this understanding of Victorian poetry largely by displacing critical
approaches that required a particular subject matter or point of view and therefore
undervalued women poets whose work did not conform But feminist critics own
assumptions about Victorian women’s poetry have also threatened to exclude Emily
Bronte Virginia Blains anthology of Victorian women’s poetry is representative, not
eccentric, in omitting Bronte. Blain aimed to provide wide-ranging coverage of "the
kinds of subjects and poetic treatments most often employed by Victorian women
poets, yet, as Emily’s sister Charlotte said, Emily’s poetry is not “at all like the
poetry women generally write.
Section5 Question7
The author mentions “Virginia Blain’s anthology” primarily in order to
A.represent a voice opposing the feminist critics mentioned in the second sentence
B.elaborate on a claim made in the third sentence
C.provide an example of an omission decried by feminist critics
D.cite a tendency that preceded the advent of feminist criticism
E.note an exception to a tendency described earlier in the passage
Section5 Question8
The reference to what “Emily’s sister Charlotte said” serves primarily to
A.illustrate an attitude toward Victorian poetry that has been common among feminist
critics
B.provide a vindication for those scholars who have given critical attention to Emily
Bronte’s poetry
C.suggest that Emily Bronte’s poetry would not be well served by being included in
an anthology of poetry by women
D.identify an aspect of Emily Bronte’s poetry that is increasingly of interest to literary
critics
E.shed light on a particular oversight common among feminist critics studying
Victorian poetry

Study of the geological history of the Moon is based on the law of superposition,
which states that younger rocks and geological features visibly overlie older rocks and
26
features. For example, linesor "rays" radiate outward from the crater Copernicus and
overlie the rim of the neighboring crater Eratosthenes, demonstrating that Copernicus
is younger. Both of these craters are younger than the dark lava plain, Mare Imbrium,
upon which they lie. In contrast, the crater Archimedes is filled with and surrounded
by this dark lava, from which itsrim protrudes; thus, the impact that created
Archimedes predates the lava eruption that flooded the whole region to create Mare
Imbrium. All the foregoing features occur inside the giant imbrium basin itself a kind
of colossal impact crater. Thus, the relative ages of surface features in the imbrium-
copernicus region were unambiguously derivable from photographs taken from Earth
well before any lunar missions. Their absolute ages, however, were only later inferred
from physical samples of lunar rock.
Section5 Question9
The primary purpose of the passage is to
A.explain how a scientific law was inferred from processes that were first revealed by
photographic evidence
B.reconstruct a chronology of events in order to explain the absence of certain
expected lunar features
C.show how physical evidence has been used to substantiate inferences based on the
application of a particular methodology
D.suggest how conclusions are formed about the absolute ages of geological features
E.illustrate how a general principle has been used to draw certain specific conclusions
Section5 Question10
It can be inferred from the passage that which of the following geological events
occurred first?
A.The impact that formed the rays of Copernicus

B.The impact that formed Eratosthenes
C.The eruption that flooded Archimedes
D.The formation of the lmbrium basin
E.The creation of Mare Imbrium
Section5 Question11
It can be inferred from the passage that a medium-sized lunar impact crater could be
clearly determined to predate a smaller lunar impact crater if which of the following
were observed in a photograph of the two craters?
A.The smaller crater is entirely contained within the rim of the medium-sized crater.
B.The medium-sized crater partially obscures the rim of the smaller crater
C.Lava surrounds the medium-sized crater on all sides but does not surround the
smaller crater.
27
D.The rim of the smaller crater is an unbroken circle, but the rim of the medium-sized
crater is incomplete in places.
E.The smaller crater is streaked with the rays of the medium-sized crater

Section5 Question16
The Thorvald epic was transmitted orally until the early 1300s, when it was written
down. Three manuscripts of the epic survive from the 1300s. The latest of these
manuscripts, made in the mid-1300shas an episode that is not in the second
manuscript, but that occurs in the earliest of the three manuscripts in virtually the
same words. Therefore the third manuscript was probably copied from the first or
from a now lost copy of the first.
Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument relies?
A.Whoever produced the second manuscript did not deliberately omit the missing
episode.
29
B.The earliest of the surviving manuscripts was not the first manuscript ever made of
Thorvald.
C.The texts of the first and third surviving manuscripts do not derive from the text of
a manuscript now lost that predates them both.
D.The first manuscript was copied at most once before the third manuscript was
made.
E.The episode that is missing from the second manuscript was not invented by
whoever produced the first manuscript.

Normally, business leaders would welcome such a huge market as that which exists
in the area of environmental improvement-it is worth more than 500 billion dollars
worldwide. But the terminology and rhetoric of the environmental improvement field
have so confused and polarized thinking that the implications of such a valuable
market are generally overlooked. Despite the huge economic gains shown by
virtually every careful study environmental improvement is generally referred to
as a cost "by most business executives, political figures, and policy makers. Yet
like other industries, environmental improvement responds to a valid demand, and it
creates jobs profits and positive benefits for citizens. Environmental improvement
according to management expert James Quinn, should be viewed as a market rather
than as a cost.

Some researchers claim that cetaceans-whales and dolphins-have culture.which the
researchers define as the ability to learn from one another. Skeptics, however demand
clear evidence that cetaceans can acquire new behaviors through some form of social
learning preferably clear-cut instances of imitation or teaching. But such evidence is
difficult to obtain.While few people doubt that captive cetaceans are adept at imitation
or that they reproduce behaviors taught by researchers, biologists seeking insight into
cetaceans’ behavior in their natural habitats must rely on deduction rather than
experiments. If members of a particular group share behaviors that do not result from
genetic inheritance or environmental variation, then they have almost certainly
learned them by watching, following, or listening to other animals.
Section5 Question19
The primary purpose of the passage is to
A.cast doubt on a particular hypothesis

B.explain why a particular debate has arisen
C.contrast two different explanations for a phenomenon
D.discuss the evidence needed to settle a particular debate
E.question the validity of a particular methodology used by researchers
Section5 Question20
The passage suggests which of the following about captive cetaceans?
A.Whether they are engaged in social learning is a subject of disagreement among

biologists.
B.Their ability to imitate new behaviors is more extensive than that of noncaptive
cetaceans.
C.They exhibit few behaviors that have not also been observed in cetaceans in their
natural habitats.
D.They appear to adopt new behaviors more quickly than do noncaptive cetaceans.
E.They exhibit tendencies that suggest a capacity for the kind of behavior that
qualifies as cultural.
