Line         Historians remain divided over the role of
  banks in facilitating economic growth in the
  United States in the late eighteenth and early
  nineteenth centuries. Some scholars contend
(5) that banks played a minor role in the nation’s
  growing economy. Financial institutions, they
  argue, appeared only after the economy had
  begun to develop, and once organized, followed
  conservative lending practices, providing aid to
(10) established commercial enterprises but
  shunning those, such as manufacturing and
  transportation projects, that were more
  uncertain and capital-intensive (i.e., requiring
  greater expenditures in the form of capital than in
(15) labor).
       A growing number of historians argue, in
  contrast, that banks were crucial in transforming
  the early national economy. When state
  legislatures began granting more bank charters
(20) in the 1790s and early 1800s, the supply of
  credit rose accordingly. Unlike the earliest banks,
  which had primarily provided short-term loans to
  well-connected merchants, the banks of the early
  nineteenth century issued credit widely. As Paul
(25) Gilje asserts, the expansion and democratization
  of credit in the early nineteenth century became
  the driving force of the American economy, as
  banks began furnishing large amounts of capital
  to transportation and industrial enterprises. The
(30) exception, such historians argue, was in the
  South; here, the overwhelmingly agrarian nature
  of the economy generated outright opposition
  to banks, which were seen as monopolistic
  institutions controlled by an elite group of
(35) planters.


题目:

Which of the following statements best describes the function of the last sentence of the passage?

选项:

A、It provides evidence tending to undermine the viewpoint of the scholars mentioned in line 5.
B、It resolves a conflict over the role of banks summarized in the first paragraph.
C、It clarifies some of the reasons state legislatures began granting more bank charters.
D、It qualifies a claim made earlier in the passage about the impact of banks on the American economy in the early nineteenth century.
E、It supports a claim made earlier in the passage about how the expansion of credit affected the economy.

D

题目:

A major impediment to wide acceptance of electric vehicles even on the part of people who use their cars almost exclusively for commuting is the inability to use electric vehicles for occasional extended trips. In an attempt to make purchasing electric vehicles more attractive to commuters, one electric vehicle producer is planning to offer customers three days free rental of a conventional car for every 1,000 miles that they drive their electric vehicle.
Which of the following, if true, most threatens the plan's prospects for success?

选项:

A、Many electric vehicles that are used for commercial purposes are not needed for extended trips.
B、Because a majority of commuters drive at least 100 miles a week, the cost to the producer of making good the offer would add considerably to the already high price of electric vehicles. 
C、The relatively long time it takes to recharge the battery of an electric vehicle can easily be fitted into the regular patterns of car use characteristic of commuters. 
D、Although electric vehicles are essentially emission-free in actual use, generating the electricity necessary for charging an electric vehicle's battery can burden the environment. 
E、Some family vehicles are used primarily not for commuting but for making short local trips, such as to do err ands.

题目:

In Brindon County, virtually all of the fasteners—such as nuts, bolts, and screws—used by workshops and manufacturing firms have for several years been supplied by the Brindon Bolt Barn, a specialist wholesaler.  In recent months many of Brindon County's workshops and manufacturing firms have closed down, and no new ones have opened.  Therefore, the Brindon Bolt Barn will undoubtedly show a sharp decline in sales volume and revenue for this year as compared to last year.
 
The argument depends on assuming which of the following?

选项:

A、Last year the Brindon Bolt Barn's sales volume and revenue were significantly higher than they had been the previous year.
B、The workshops and manufacturing firms that have remained open have a smaller volume of work to do this year than they did last year.
C、Soon the Brindon Bolt Barn will no longer be the only significant supplier of fasteners to Brindon County's workshops.
D、The Brindon Bolt Barn's operating expenses have not increased this year.
E、The Brindon Bolt Barn is not a company that gets the great majority of its business from customers outside Brindon County.

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.
