Cuttlefish could be the first animals shown to learn visually before birth or hatching, researchers
say.Cuttlefish embryos develop in eggs that stretch and become translucent slightly penetrable
by light rays . Embryos with crabs Crabs see there nearby hatch into youngsters with a distinct
preference for eating crabs, says Ludovic Dickel of theUniversity of Caen in France. Without that
pre-hatch view of crabs, the little cuttlefish prefer to attack shrimp, he and his colleagues report
in the July Animal Behaviour.That leads the researchers to conclude that the cuttlefish embryos
must peer through their eggs, and learn to recognise their prey, a behaviour which will help give
them a head-start in life. The preference develops from sight alone, Dickel says.
support
The researchers kept the crabs in containers that prevented crab
scents from getting into the water with the eggs.

City Official: At City Hospital, uninsured patients tend to have shorter stays and
fewer procedures performed than do insured patients, even though insured
patients, on average, have slightly less serious medical problems at the time of
admission to the hospital than uninsured patients have. Critics of the hospital have
concluded that the uninsured patients are not receiving proper medical care.
However, this conclusion is almost certainly false. Careful investigation has recently
shown two things: insured patients have much longer stays in the hospital than
necessary, and they tend to have more procedures performed than are medically
necessary.
In the city officials argument, the two boldface portions play which of the following
roles?
A. The first states the conclusion of the city officials argument; the second provides
support for that conclusion.
B. The first is used to support the conclusion of the city officials argument; the
second states that conclusion.
C. The first was used to support the conclusion drawn by hospital critics; the second
states the position that the city officials argument opposes.
D. The first was used to support the conclusion drawn by hospital critics; the second
provides support for the conclusion of the city officials argument.
E. The first states the position that the city officials argument opposes; the second
states the conclusion of the city officials argument.

V4 Many winemakers use cork stoppers; but cork stoppers can leak, crumble, or became moldy,
so that those winemakers must often discard a significant proportion of their inventory of bottled
wine. Bottle master plastic stoppers, which cannot leak, crumble, or mold, have long been
available to winemakers, at a price slightly higher than that of traditional cork stoppers. Cork
prices, however are expected to rise dramatically in the near future. Clearly, therefore,
winemakers who still use cork but wish to keep production costs from rising will be forced to
reconsider plastic stoppers. And since the wine-buying publics association of plastic stoppers
with poor-quality wine is weakening, there is an excellent chance that the Bottlemaster plastic
stopper will gain an increased share of the market for wine-bottle stoppers.
In the argument given, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?
A) The first is a judgment that has been advanced in support of a position that the argument
opposes; the second is the main conclusion of the argument.
B) The first is a judgment that has been advanced in support of a position that the argument
opposes; the second is conclusion drawn in order to support the main conclusion of the
argument.
C) The first is the main conclusion of the argument; the second provides evidence in support of
that main conclusionD) The first is the main conclusion of the argument; the second is a
restatement of that main conclusion.
E) The first is a conclusion drawn in order to support the main conclusion of the argument; the

of bicycle trips on the bicycle trips increase by 20%, most bicycle trips use bicycle path. However,
the total number of bicycle trips roads were not decreasing.
What must be true?
most bicycle trips that use paths also use roads.
V1 Before the construction of bicycle paths, the bicyclists took trips on the road. After the
construction of bicycle paths, the trips on those paths almost doubled and the bicyclists also

Editor:
Articles in Gardening Magazine often spur sales of the plants they describe, particularly among
people new to gardening.
Accordingly, we will no longer publish articles or accept advertisements praising the beauty of
rare wildflowers.
Most such plants sold to gardeners have been difficult to propagate under cultivation, so plant
sellers often collect them in the wild.
Our new policy is part of our efforts to halt this yearly plundering of our native plant populations.
Which of the following, if true, casts the most doubt on the wisdom of the magazine's new policy
as a way of pursuing the intended effect?
A. When people new to gardening buy plants, they often fail to take adequate care of the plants
that they buy and become discouraged from buying those varieties again.
B. Plant sellers who sell rare wildflowers have no reasonably inexpensive alternative way to offer
their wares directly to new gardeners.
C. The demand for rare wildflowers rarely exceeds the number of such plants that can be
collected in the wild by plant sellers.
D. The propagation of rare wildflowers often depends on the plants' interaction with other
organisms in their environment, such as plants that create suitable soil conditions or insects and
birds that disperse seeds.
E. Revenues from sales of plants collected in the wild are supporting the discovery of new
low-cost techniques enabling rare wildflowers to be readily propagated in nurseries.

Shopping mall square excluded some convenience stores out of the mall, the residents
surrounding the shopping mall attributed the traffic, loud noise and garbage, to the shopping
mall's decision to close these stores. However, it is not caused by the closing of these
convenience stores since all these stores excluded from shopping mall did not open new stores in
surrounding area. which of the following weakens the argument
One of the big convenience store chain started opening new stores in the
surrounding area when they heard of such a proposal to close convenience stores in the shopping
