Question 2

Psychological research indicates that college hockey and football players are more quickly moved to hostility and aggression than are college athletes in no contact sports such as swimming. But the researchers’ conclusion – that contact sports encourage and teach participants to be hostile and aggressive – is untenable. The football and hockey players were probably more hostile and aggressive to start with than the swimmers. Which of the following, if true, would most strengthen the conclusion drawn by the psychological researchers?

A : The football and hockey players became more hostile and aggressive during the season and remained so during the off-season, whereas there was no increase in aggressiveness among the swimmers.

B : The football and hockey players, but not the swimmers, were aware at the start of the experiment that they were being tested for aggressiveness.

C : The same psychological research indicated that the football and hockey players had a great respect for cooperation and team play, whereas the swimmers were most concerned with excelling as individual competitors

D : The research studies were designed to include no college athletes who participated in both contact and non-contact sports.

E : Throughout the United States, more incidents of fan violence occur at baseball games than occur at hockey or football games.

Answer: A

Question 3

Mr. Janeck: I don’t believe Stevenson will win the election for governor. Few voters are willing to elect a

businessman with no political experience to such a responsible public office.

of running a state government.

M. Siuzdak’s response shows that she has interpreted Mr. Janeck’s remark to imply which of the following?

A : Mr. Janeck considers Stevenson unqualified for the office of governor

B : No candidate without political experience has ever been elected governor of a state

C : Mr. Janeck believes that political leadership and business leadership are closely analogous.

D : A career spent in the pursuit of profit can be an impediment to one’s ability to run a state government fairly

E : Voters generally overestimate the value of political experience when selecting a candidate.

Answer: A

B : X − (1 + 2X) / 2

C : 4X − 1 − 4(1 − X)

D :

E : X / (4X) + 4X/4.

Question 5

In the industrialized nations, the last century has witnessed a shortening of the average workday from twelve

hours or longer to less than eight hours. Mindful of this enormous increase in leisure time over the past century,

many people assume that the same trend has obtained throughout history, and that, therefore, prehistoric

humans must have labored incessantly for their very survival.

We cannot, of course, directly test this assumption. However, a study of primitive peoples of today suggests a

different conclusion. The Mbuti of central Africa, for instance, spend only a few hours each day in hunting,

gathering, and tending to other economic necessities. The rest of their time is spent as they choose. The

implication is that the short workday is not peculiar to industrialized societies. Rather, both the extended

workday of 1880 and the shorter workday of today are products of different stages of the continuing process of

industrialization.

Which of the following inferences about industrialization is best supported by the passage above?

A : People in advanced industrialized societies have more leisure time than those in no industrialized societies

B : An average workday of twelve hours or more is peculiar to economies in the early stages of industrialization.

C : Industrialization involves a trade-off between tedious, monotonous jobs and the benefits of increased leisure.

D : It is likely that the extended workday of an industrializing country will eventually be shortened.

E : As industrialization progresses, people tend to look for self-fulfillment in leisure rather than work.
