In the twentieth century, the introduction of twelve-tone music and the widespread use of computers inspired further study into the relationship between musical and mathematical abilities. Musical performances require sensitivity to ratios that are often complex, and to appreciate the operation of rhythms, a performer must have some basic numerical competence. 1. Which of the following can be inferred from the passageAThe disciplines of music and mathematics originated in classical times.BPeople have long been aware of links between music and mathematics.CBoth music and mathematics require an understanding of computers.DProfessional musicians must study mathematics at the university level. 4.1 Some people believe that odors and fragrances affect the body and mind and are capable of healing anxiety, stress, and other sources of disease. Interest in aromatherapy- and the use of aromatherapy products such as lotions and inhalants-continues to boom. Some popular essential oils and their uses in aromatherapy include lavender and chamomile, which are reputed to ease stress and promote sleep. The scent of jasmine will uplift the mood and reduce depression. Orange eases anxiety and depression and promotes creativity. Peppermint has antibacterial and analgesic qualities, eases mental fatigue, and relieves headaches. 2 However, aromatherapy is not for everyone. For people who suffer from fragrance sensitivity, asthma, or allergies, aromas like perfumes can prompt disabling health problems, including headaches, dizziness, nausea and vomiting, fatigue, difficulty breathing, difficulty concentrating, flu-like symptoms, and anaphylaxis.It can be inferred that aromatherapy isAthe main use of essential oils from plantsBthe use of certain scents to promote healthCnot recommended for treating headachesDnot an effective method of curing disease 5.The input of solar energy supplies 99 percent of the energy needed to heat the earth and all buildings on it. How is this possible Most people think of solar energy in terms of direct heat from the sun. However, broadly defined, solar energy includes direct energy from the sun as well as a number of indirect forms of energy produced by this direct input. Major indirect forms of solar energy include wind, hydropower, and biomass-solar energy converted to chemical energy in trees, plants, and other organic matter. 3. It can be inferred from the passage that the author most likely believes which of the following about solar energyASolar energy is not used as much as it could be used.BIt is not possible to develop direct forms of solar energy.CTrees, plants, and organic matter can store solar energy.DThe definition of solar energy will continue to chang 6.Corvids are sociable and tend to form social groups. This is particularly true of rooks, which stay in their flocks all year round. The raven, largest of the corvids, joins a social group as a juvenile, pairing off at around the age of three and mating for life. Courtship can involve such games as pair snow sliding and the synchronized flight test. Corvids can be found all over the world. The adaptability and intelligence of this family have made them extremely successful. For centuries, the raven and the crow have held a special place in the mythology of various cultures. 2. It can be inferred from the passage that corvids areAa family of birdsBgames for childrenCmembers of a sports clubDimaginary beings 7.The reasons for the migration from rural to urban life were exploitation and lack of economic opportunity. The family members who would not inherit a share in the property were exploited by the laws of inheritance. The system was particularly hard on women, who usually did not share in the ownership of the farm and who rarely were paid for their labor. The workday for women was even more demanding than it was for men. Women were responsible for the kitchen garden and the small livestock as well as the care of the family. Unmarried women increasingly left the farm in search of economic opportunity in the factories that processed fish or farm products. 4. It can be inferred from the passage that women under this systemAmoved from farm to farm in search of workBwere paid less than men for the same workCdid not acquire property through inheritanceDhad to get married in order to stay on the farm 8.1 Animal behaviorists believe the orangutan is a cultured ape, able to learn new living habits and to pass them along to the next generation. Some orangutan parents teach their young to use leaves as napkins, while others demonstrate the technique of getting water from a hole by dipping a branch in and then licking the leaves. Orangutans have been observed saying goodnight with the gift of a juicy raspberry. Such social interactions lead researchers to conclude that if orangutans have culture, then the capacity to learn culture is very ancient. 2 In the evolutionary timeline, orangutans separated from the ancestors of humans many millions of years ago, and they may have had culture before they separated. The discovery of orangutan culture suggests that early primates-including ancestors of humans-might have developed the ability to invent new behaviors, such as tool use, as early as 14 million years ago, approximately 6 million years earlier than once believed.What can be inferred from paragraph 1 about social interactions related to teaching and learningAThey are behaviors that only orangutans have displayed.BThey are misunderstood by animal behaviorists.CThey indicate similarities between orangutans and other apes.DThey provide evidence that orangutans have cultur 9.One of the most significant elements of age stratification in all cultures is the pattern of experiences connected to marriage and parenting-a pattern that sociologists call the family life cycle. In North America, about 90 percent of adults marry, and the great majority of them have children and thus a family life cycle related to family experiences. When the familys first child is born, the parents embark on a sequence of experiences linked to the childs development-from infancy and toddlerhood, through school age and adolescence, and eventually, to departure from the nest. Each of these periods in the childs life makes a different set of demands on the parents.The phrase embark on in the passage is closest in meaning toAttemptBbeginCiscussDavoid 10.1 In the early nineteenth century, most of the Europeans who immigrated to the United States were from northern and western European countries such as England, Germany, France, and Sweden. However, most of the fifteen million Europeans arriving between 1890 and 1914 came from southern and eastern Europe, with the largest numbers coming from Russia, Italy, Greece, Austria-Hungary, and Armenia. 2 A similar pattern occurred in Canada, where most immigrants were traditionally from England and the United States. After 1890, an increasing number came from eastern Europe, particularly Russia and Ukraine. Many of these headed for the Prairie Provinces. The Doukhobors, a pacifist sect from southern Russia, established communal settlements in Saskatchewan. Together with other immigrants, they arrived in such numbers that in the two decades between the completion of the main railroad network and the outbreak of war in 1914, the population of the prairies had increased from about 150,000 to 1.5 million.Which of the following can be inferred from paragraph 1 about European immigration to the United States in the nineteenth centuryAThe sources of immigrants shifted to different parts of Europe.BMost of the European immigrants could not speak English.CMore immigrants came from Europe than from other continents.DNorthern and western Europeans did not immigrate after 1890. 11.1 Animal behaviorists believe the orangutan is a cultured ape, able to learn new living habits and to pass them along to the next generation.

To Smith, iron spoke of the power, mobility, and vigor of the industrial age. Smith was born in Indiana in 1906, the descendant of a nineteenth- century blacksmith. His iron sculptures flowed naturally out of the mechanized heart of America, a landscape of railroads and factories. As a child, Smith played on trains and around factories, as well as in nature on hills and near creeks. He originally wanted to be a painter, but after seeing photographs of the metal sculpture of Picasso in an art magazine, he began to realize that iron could be handled as directly as paint. 2 Many of Smiths sculptures are "totems" that suggest variations on the human figure. They are not large iron dolls, although several have "heads" or "legs." Still, they forcefully convey posture and gesture. Their message flows from the internal relations of the forms and from the impression of tension, spring, and alertness set up by their position in space. 3 Later in his career, Smith produced two series of sculptures in stainless steel: the Sentinels in the 1950s and the Cubis in the 1960s. He also began placing his sculptures outdoors, in natural light, where the highly reflective stainless steel could bring sunlight and color into the work. In the late afternoon sun, the steel planes of the Cubis reflect a golden color; at other times, they have a blue cast. The mirror-like steel creates an illusion of depth, which responds better to sunshine than it would to the static lighting of a museum.The word vigor in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning toAhistoryBpovertyClifestyleDstrength 14.One of the most significant elements of age stratification in all cultures is the pattern of experiences connected to marriage and parenting-a pattern that sociologists call the family life cycle.
