Q: 7 Thanks to technological advances, we can better understand aspects of the world that cannot effectively be inspected by
the naked eye: atoms, molecules, microbes, and - believe it or not - certain species of birds. Consider the peregrine falcon,
which is regarded by many as the world’s fastest flier. An adult peregrine falcon can reach speeds of up to 220 miles per
hour: ornithologists are well aware of this stunning figure, but how, exactly, does it feel to move at more than five times the
speed limit on many roadways? This is one of the questions that was addressed by researchers Suzanne Amador Kane
and Marjon Zamani, who used protable video cameras to capture a falcon’s-eye view of the world.

Q: 9 In a paper published in the zoological journal Copeia, Theodore W.Pietsch and Tracey T.Sutton argued that the newly-
found anglerfish is “not especially similar to any of the five previously described members of the genus” Lasiognathus,
which encompasses the earlier-known anglerfish. It is perhaps too early to say what effect the revelation of the new
Ceratioid Anglerfish will have on existing classifications - if any. But even though the new species is an anomaly among
anglerfish, it exhibits traits that are familiar from land-based organisms. One such trait is a pronounced disparity on size
and development based on sex, or a “sexual dimorphism,” that favors females. While animals as different as birds of prey
and praying mantises exhibit such a gender-determined biological structure, the form of sexual dimorphism that can be
found among the new anglerfish and some related species is particularly extreme: in this case, females are a yellowish
brown color and have long, angled lures, while males have so far only been found as parasites attached to the females’
bodies. (At first, adult males are easy to mistake for warts or other growths.)

Which choice best describes the function of the underlined sentence?

A. Provide a humorous interlude about the appearance of anglerfish in a predominantly serious passage.
✗ Your Ans B. Suggest a potential explanation for the disparity between male and female anglerfish discoveries.
✓ Correct Ans C. Highlight the intensity of the effects of sexual dimorphism among the new anglerfish.
D. Give helpful advice to aspiring deep sea scientists on finding and identifying male anglerfish.

Q: 11 Granted, natural changes to Earth’s climate have also occurred in recent times. For example, two major volcanic eruptions
in 1982 and in 1991, pumped sulfur dioxide gas high into the atmosphere, creating tiny particles that lingered for more
than a year. These reflected sunlight and shaded Earth’s surface, and temperatures across the globe dipped for about
three years. However, although volcanoes are active around the world, the amount of carbon dioxide they release is
extremely small compared to that released by human activities. On average, volcanoes emit between 130 and 230 million
tons of carbon dioxide per year, whereas the burning of fossil fuels releases about 26 billion tons of carbon dioxide every
year. In other words, human influence on the climate is 100-200 times the effect of all the world’s volcanoes.

According to the text, the author anticipates which of the following objections to the main thesis of the text?

A. Current climatic computer models are inaccurate and hence unreliable.


B. The science of climatology is still in its infancy.
✓ Your Ans C. Non-anthropogenic drivers of climate change overwhelm anthropogenic ones.

Q: 12 For decades, scientists presumed that the Greenland shark was long-lived, due its large size and slow metabolism. To
quote American marine biologist Peter Bushnell, "I suppose if I had to pin my thoughts on the single species of shark that
would live the longest, intuitively, the Greenland shark would be right up there at the top.” But earnest attempts to verify
the ages of individual specimens did not occur until 2016, when Bushnell, with a group of Danish biologists, embarked on a
mission to the Arctic to procure Greenland sharks and determine their true longevity.

Which choice best states the main idea of the paragraph?

A. Various features of the shark cause it to live for a long time.


B. The Greenland shark had fascinated scientists for quite some time.
C. Researchers were unable to study the shark until 2016.

✓ Your Ans C. “From early morn to the fall of the afternoon he would go from fountain to fountain and from portal to portal,

D. “When his first jugs had worn out the sweet-scented, porous red clay becomes perforated in time he had
buried them to their necks in the corner where he slept, and they were now his treasury.”

Q: 15 A student is examining a long, challenging poem that was initially published in a quarterly journal without explanatory notes,
then later republished in a stand-alone volume containing only that poem and accompanying explanatory notes written by
the poet. The student asserts that the explanatory notes were included in the republication primarily as a marketing device
to help sell the stand-alone volume.

Which statement, if true, would most directly support the student’s claim?

A. The text of the poem as published in the quarterly journal is not identical to the text of the poem published
in the stand-alone volume.
B. Many critics believe that the poet’s explanatory notes remove certain ambiguities of the poem and make
it less interesting as a result.
✓ Your Ans C. The publishers of the stand-alone volume requested the explanatory notes from the poet in order to make
the book attractive to readers who already had a copy of the poem in a journal issue.
D. Correspondence between the poet and the publisher reveals that the poet’s explanatory notes went
through several drafts.

Q: 16 Choctaw/Cherokee artist Jeffrey Gibson turns punching bags used by boxers into art by decorating them with beadwork
and elements of Native dressmaking. These elements include leather fringe and jingles, the metal cones that cover the
dresses worn in the jingle dance, a women’s dance of the Ojibwe people. Thus, Gibson combines an object commonly
associated with masculinity (a punching bag) with art forms traditionally practiced by women in most Native communities
(beadwork and dressmaking). In this way, he rejects the division of male and female gender roles.

Q: 17 In a recent study, researchers grew rice in chambers with varying levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) to simulate different
atmospheric conditions. They found that as CO2 levels increased, the nutritional content of the rice changed. Specifically,
the rice contained less protein, iron, and zinc, but contained more carbohydrates. One potential explanation for these
findings is that, since CO2 is an important input to photosynthesis, the elevated carbon dioxide levels could be spurring the
plants to photosynthesize more rapidly. This in turn could lead to increased carbohydrate production at the expense of
other nutrients like protein, iron, and zinc.

Which finding from the study, if true, would most directly weaken the potential explanation?

✓ Correct Ans A. Rice plants consumed carbon dioxide at nearly identical rates, regardless of variations in atmospheric
CO2 levels.
✗ Your Ans B. Protein production suffered more in high-CO2 conditions than zinc production did.
C. Rice plants grew more quickly overall in low-CO2 conditions than in high-CO2 conditions.
D. Carbohydrate production increased and then plateaued as atmospheric CO2 levels increased.

Q: 34 Scientists interested in extreme organisms have had banner years between 2014 and 2015, years that featured both giant
squid sightings (which are previously rare occurrences) and the discovery of several new and unusual underwater species.
Among the absolute most unusual of these is a new species of the Ceratioid Anglerfish, which researchers from Florida’s
Nova Southeastern University discovered during a deep-sea excursion in the Gulf of Mexico. The researchers caught three
of these fish, all female, in a region of the ocean known as the “Midnight Zone”: no natural sunlight can penetrate to this
region, which begins at just over 3000 feet under the ocean, making the water pitch black and plant growth nonexistent.
Carnivorous anglerfish thrive in these reaches of the ocean, using the “angling” appendages that sprout from their backs
to lure their prey.

Which choice best describes the overall structure of the text?

A. A summary of the research done in the deep sea to a description of a highly researched region where
squid and fish have been found.
B. A reiteration of the author’s main argument about deep sea creatures to a list of supporting points that will
be explained later in the psssage.
✓ Correct Ans C. An outline of the recent progress made by scientists in the deep sea to a more detailed characterization
of a particular discovery.
✗ Your Ans D. A scientific depiction of an abrasive and barren habitat to a more subjective musing about the organisms
that survive in this setting.

American continents, but the free and independent condition which they have assumed and maintained, are henceforth not
to be considered as subjects for future colonization by any European powers.

Text 2
We would interfere with them only in the last resort, and then only if it became evident that their inability or unwillingness to
do justice at home and abroad had violated the rights of the United States or had invited foreign aggression to the
detriment of the entire body of American nations. It is a mere truism to say that every nation, whether in America or
anywhere else, which desires to maintain its freedom, its independence, must ultimately realize that the right of such
independence can not be separated from the responsibility of making good use of it.

On which policy do the authors of both texts most strongly agree?

A. The United States must remain neutral in disagreements between European powers and their colonies.
B. The political systems of all European countries must remain essentially different from those in the
American continents.
C. The European colonies on the American continents must be allowed to resolve conflicts on their own.

Mr. Allworthy’s longtime servant.

There were some strokes in this speech which perhaps would have offended Mr. Allworthy, had he strictly attended to it;
but he had now got one of his fingers into the infant’s hand, which, by its gentle pressure, seeming to implore his
assistance, had certainly put-pleaded the eloquence of Mrs. Deborah, had it been ten times greater than it was. He now
gave Mrs. Deborah positive orders to take the child to her own bed, and to call up a maid-servant to provided it pap, and
other things, against it waked. Such was the discernment of Mrs. Wilkins, and such the respect she bore her master, under
whom she enjoyed a most excellent place, that her scruples gave way to his peremptory commands; and she took the child
under her arms, without any apparent disgust at the illegality of its birth; and declaring it was a sweet little infant, walked off
with it to her own chamber.

According to the text, which is true about Mrs. Deborah Wilkins’s general attitude toward Mr. Allworthy?

A. She regards herself as a pragmatic counterbalance to his unreasonable vanity.


✓ Correct Ans B. She feels she can speak candidly with him yet she respects his authority.

Survey each other’s rage, and pass the hours

Has in some man his human counterpart,
Some lofty soul in dreams and visions wrapped,
But in the stifling flesh securely trapped.

rural south to northern cities after World War I.
• Half the panels are in the Museum of Modern Art; the others are in the Phillips Collection.

Q: 53 This text is adapted from Philip Kowalski, “An Unnatural History of the American Zoo”

The first American zoo was established in Philadelphia in 1874, and for most Americans today, zoos figure as positive
impositions on the landscape. They preserve many species threatened in their natural habitats by forces such as climate
change in the Artic and the mercenary poaching in Africa - forces that might spell the potential extinction of polar bears
and elephants, among others. But this conservatorship that zoos offer also reflects the values of a culture that still
privileges a traditional human-centered and human-controlled view of the natural world. As theorized by the American
philosopher and intellectual historian A. O. Lovejoy in the 1930s, the so-called “Great Chain of Being” assumed that “man”
ruled over the entire natural world and, like Adam in the Garden of Eden, was the caretaker of all living things.

Which choice best describes the function of the underlined sentence

A. To introduce a historical figure whose ideas are no longer widely studied.


B. To summarize an argument that zookeepers often use to defend their practices.
✓ Your Ans C. To provide background for a belief that the author finds problematic.

• They were carved from boulders weighing between 6 and almost 50 tons.
