Number 2
During a particular period, water enters a partially filled reservoir at a constant rate
through a mountain stream. At the same time, water is pumped out of the reservoir at a
constant rate through an outlet pipe. At what rate, in gallons per minute, is the amount
of water in the reservoir increasing?
(1) The amount of water initially in the reservoir is 1800 gallons.
(2) Water is pumped into the reservoir at a rate of 8 gallons per minute and out of the
reservoir at a rate of 20 gallons every 3 minutes.
A) Statement (1) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (2) alone is not sufficient.
B) Statement (2) ALONE is sufficient, but statement (1) alone is not sufficient.
C) BOTH statements TOGETHER are sufficient, but NEITHER statement ALONE is
sufficient.
D) EACH statement ALONE is sufficient.
E) Statements (1) and (2) TOGETHER are NOT sufficient.
Number 3
Recently, scientists determined that great white sharks can live over 70 years, much
longer than had been previously thought. They made the discovery by examining the
layers of different colors that accumulated on the shark’s teeth over the years. In the
1950s, atomic bomb testing produced unusually large amounts of carbon-14, which fell
from the atmosphere into the ocean and accumulated as a distinctive layer on the
shark’s teeth corresponding to a known period in time. Perplexingly, even though great
white sharks live longer than had been expected, some parties maintain that based on
the new findings, the great white sharks must be protected from overfishing.
Which of the following, if true, best resolves the discrepancy identified above?
A) Great white sharks need to be protected from overfishing because they are dying
rapidly due to poisoning by carbon-14.
B) Great white sharks were determined to live longer than had been previously thought
based on the discovery of a carbon-14-rich layer within older sharks’ teeth.
C) Great white sharks are evidently endangered and therefore need to be protected
from overfishing.
D) Some great white sharks may have rich layers of carbon-14 from other sources,
depending on their migration patterns.
E) Great white sharks’ longer lifespan implies that they mature more slowly and
reproduce more slowly than had previously been assumed.

QUESTIONS 4 TO 5 REFER TO THE FOLLOWING PASSAGE


It has estimated that over 20% of the annual gross domestic product in the
United States is the result of innovation backed at some point by venture capital
investors. But what is innovation? One traditional view of innovation is that it is a
systematic business process occurring within an organization required to secure
ongoing financial growth. But much of the most acclaimed and influential innovation has
started with an individual's idea and only somewhat later followed with an organization
to execute on that idea, so the organizational definition is of limited relevance.
A more practical definition of innovation is that it is the creation of anything new
intended to be commercialized. Under such a definition, the efforts of a lone individual
developing a radical idea and those of a department within a large company to explore
a new adjacent market are both examples of innovation. This somewhat loose
definition, however, fails to address explicitly what makes an innovation truly new,
successful, or authentic, although it may imply that all innovation is equally valid in a
sense. Otherwise, the oft-repeated challenge to uses of the term innovation may put too
little emphasis on the activity and too much on its results. Quite possibly, 80% of the
value of innovation has been contributed by 20% of the activity, but whether that 20% of
activity could have manifested itself without a culture and economy to support the whole
is less clear. In this regard, policy- and strategy-oriented attempts to refine this loose
definition of innovation further are without merit.

4. The author of the passage is primarily concerned with


A. discussing data supporting some definitions
B. arguing for the use of a particular definition
C. discussing some definitions of a concept
D. discrediting a common definition of a concept
E. clarifying some ambiguous definitions

5. The passage suggests which of the following about innovation?


A. Most important innovation occurs outside of the scope of established companies
B. Quite possibly, 80% of annual gross domestic product is the result of 20% of
innovation.
C. Most innovation activity does not ultimately contribute economic value, by either
definition given.
D. Less obviously successful acts of innovation may have important results that are not
commonly recognized.
E. Most innovations occur in a context that falls outside the scope of the traditional
definition of innovation.

QUESTIONS 8 REFERS TO THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH


Recently developed tourism infrastructure, including ten-story hotels and neon-lit discos,
is obscuring the moonlight, disorienting the female turtles as they seek out beaches to
lay their eggs. Often the confusion leads them to assume that the hotel pools are the
sea and they end up laying their eggs in the pool flowerbeds. Once the eggs hatch, the
hatchlings are unable to find their way to the sea and die. The stringent building
regulations that protected the turtles in the past are being flouted openly by organized
criminals who either bribe or terrorize officials into turning a blind eye.
Which of the following can be inferred from the above passage?
A. AScarcity of turtles results in ecological imbalance of sea.
B. Chemicals in pool water are not safe for turtles.
C. Moonlight is the only source of light for turtles.
D. Turtles are guided by moonlight.

Question 4 (1 point)
At the age of sixty-five, Laura Ingalls Wilder began writing a series of novels for young people
based on her early experiences on American frontier. Born in the state of Wisconsin in 1867,
she and her family were rugged pioneers. Seeking better farm land, they went by overed wagon
to Missouri in 1869, then on to Kansas the next year, returning to Wisconsin in 1871, and
travelling on to Minnesota and Iowa before settling permanently in South Dakota in 1879.
Because of this constant moving, Wilder's early education took place sporadically in a
succession of one-room schools. From age thirteen to sixteen, she attended school more
regularly, although she never graduated. At the age of eighteen, she married Almanzo James
Wilder. They bought a small farm in Ozarks, where they remained for the rest of their lives.
Their only daughter, Rose, who had become a nationally known journalist, encouraged her
mother to write. Serving as agent and editor, Rose negotiated with Harper's to publish her
mother's first book, Little House in the Big Woods. Seven more books followed, each chronicling
her early life on the plains. Written from the perspective of a child, they have remained popular
with young readers from many nations. Twenty years after her death in 1957, more than 20
million copies had been sold, and they had been translated into fourteen languages. In 1974, a
weekly television series, "Little House on the Prairie", was produced based on the stories from
the Wilder books. Laura Ingalls Wilder began writing novels….

Growing Herbs Indoors Materials you need: Containers (with drainage holes and waterproof
saucers); herb seeds and/or plants; potting soil or soilless seed-starting mix; fertilizer
Procedures: 1. Prepare the herbs that you want to plant. The herbs you can choose for
windowsill herb garden are basil, cilantro, dill, oregano, rosemary, sage and thyme. You can
start from seed for annual herbs and from plants for perennial herbs. 2. Use individual pots for
each herb so you can give each plant the specific care it needs. Be sure containers have
drainage holes and waterproof saucers. If you want to plant multiple types of herbs in a single
container, make sure they have the same cultural requirements. 3. If starting seeds, fill
container with potting mix. Avoid using garden soil, which tends to be heavy and may contain
disease organisms. Sow seeds, checking the seed packet to determine planting depth. Learn
what conditions each herb prefers; for example, basil prefers warmth, while sage and rosemary
like cooler temperatures. Consider choosing compact or dwarf varieties to fit your space. 4.
Next, place containers in a sunny, south-facing window. A south-facing window is adequate for
most herbs. Water your herbs to keep soil moist but not soggy, and drain saucers after
watering. Fertilize every two weeks with a half-strength solution of an all-purpose fertilizer. Pinch
back branching plants, such as basil, to keep them shrubby rather than leggy. What do you
have to do before filling the container?

Question 18 (1 point)
Recently, I took a trip to Japan. I went across the country and visited most of its famous places.
One that I noted was Akihabara. One notable establishment which can be found in Akihabara is
called a Girl/Maid Cafe, a themed restaurant where the servers are women and they come and
have conversations with you at your table. Together with my friends, we went to a Mermaid
Cafe, which was themed to be under the sea. Our waitress was named Momone, and while she
did not look exactly like a Mermaid, she was definitely wearing a stereotypical maid outfit.
Unfortunately I did not speak Japanese, though the rest of my small cohort did, so a long
conversation ensued about our servers' interests and adventures. I purchased a special drink,
which costed a bit more than the others, but came with a cute Polaroid which Momone and I
posed for. She wrote all over the Polaroid with markers, writing cute messages and drawing
hearts, to help build the illusion that we were a cute (Kawaii) couple. The arcades in Akihabara
are filled with people playing games. I am a big fan of Guilty Gear, but I could not find it in the
arcade I was in, so I instead settled for Blaz Blu, its cousin. This arcade, and many other
buildings in the area, have very slow elevators and no staircases. If there were a fire I could only
assume everybody would die. One of the shops I went to was several stories tall. The first story
contained modern console video games, the next stories contain retro console games. One
story is dedicated to movies, while another to board games. There I purchase one toy as a
souvenir for a friend back in the States, though I had not yet asked how it worked. When riding
between cities, the trains were very packed. In these trains one will find many Japanese
Businesspersons, who mostly appear sad and tired. This offers a sharp contrast with the whole

Question 20 (1 point)
Social Network Impact on Young People The impact of social networks on young people is
significant. Children are growing up surrounded by mobile devices and interactive social
networking sites such as Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook, which has made the social media a
vital aspect of their life. Social network is transforming the manner in which young people
interact with their parents, peers, as well as how they make use of technology. However, hyper-
connected to social network cannot be bad for them. The effects of social networking are
twofold. On the positive side, social networks can act as invaluable tools for professionals. They
achieve this by assisting young professionals to market their skills and seek business
opportunities. Social networking sites may also be used to network professionally. On the
negative side, the internet is laden with a number of risks associated with online communities.
Cyber bullying, which refers to a type of bullying that is perpetrated using electronic technology,
is one of the risks. Bullies have taken to internet sites such as Twitter and Facebook, where the
hide behind the anonymity provided by the internet to carry out their despicable acts. Young
people also run the risk of inadvertently disclosing their personal information since on most
occasions; they usually neglect to read carefully websites' privacy policies. Whenever young
people fail to read the policies and disclaimers, they are exposed to risks of having their
personal information disclosed. This is especially a serious matter in light o the rising cases of
cyber crimes such as identity theft. New studies reveal that social networks have the ability to
sway people to spend money by running advertisements on the user's page. Such forms of
near-subliminal advertising can subconsciously cause an individual to buy certain merchandise.
It is becoming increasingly clear that social networks have become part of people's lives. Many
young people are using their tablet computers and smartphones to check Tweets and status
updates from their friends and family. As technology advances, people are pressured to adopt
different lifestyles. Social networking sites can assist young people to become more socially
capable. However, they may also make them clumsy and incompetent, as well. Therefore, it is
imperative to exercise caution and restraint when dealing with such issues. What makes bullies
are found on the social network?
Question 20 options:
People have their own privacy protected by the law set up in the internet.

Social networks have the ability to sway people to spend money.

People can hide behind the anonymity provided by the internet.

It can connect the people to the online communities easily.

The risks of bullying through the internet can be avoided.

Social Network Impact on Young People The impact of social networks on young people is
significant. Children are growing up surrounded by mobile devices and interactive social
networking sites such as Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook, which has made the social media a
vital aspect of their life. Social network is transforming the manner in which young people
interact with their parents, peers, as well as how they make use of technology. However, hyper-
connected to social network cannot be bad for them. The effects of social networking are
twofold. On the positive side, social networks can act as invaluable tools for professionals. They

Question 26 (1 point)
The Bear Who Married a Woman Once upon a time there lived a widow of the tribe of the
Gispaxlâ'ts. Many men tried to marry her daughter, but she declined them all. The mother said,
"When a man comes to marry you, feel of the palms of his hands. If they are soft, decline him. If
they are rough, accept him." She meant that she wanted to have a son-in-law who is skillful in
building canoes. Her daughter obeyed her commands and refused all young men. One night a
youth came to her. The palms of his hands were very rough, and therefore she accepted his
suit. Early in the morning, however, he had suddenly disappeared, even before she had seen
him. When her mother arose early in the morning and went out, she found a halibut (name of
fish) on the beach in front of the house, although it was midwinter. The following evening the
young man came back, but disappeared again before the dawn of the day. In the morning the
widow found a seal in front of the house. Thus they lived for some time. The young woman
never saw the face of her husband; but every morning she found an animal on the beach, every
day a larger one. Thus the widow came to be very rich. She was anxious to see her son-in-law,
and one day she waited until he arrived. Suddenly she saw a red bear appear from the water.
He carried a whale on each side, and put them down on the beach. As soon as he noticed that
he was observed, he was transformed into a rock, which may be seen up to this day. He was a
supernatural being of the sea. Which of the following statement is TRUE according to the text?

Question 30 (1 point)
The earth has four major layers: the inner core, outer core, mantle and crust. The crust and the
top of the mantle make up a thin skin on the surface of our planet. But this skin is not all in one
piece – it is made up of many pieces like a puzzle covering the surface of the earth. Not only
that, but these puzzle pieces keep slowly moving around, sliding past one another and bumping
into each other. We call these puzzle pieces tectonic plates, and the edges of the plates are
called the plate boundaries. The plate boundaries are made up of many faults, and most of the
earthquakes around the world occur on these faults. Since the edges of the plates are rough,
they get stuck while the rest of the plate keeps moving. Finally, when the plate has moved far
enough, the edges unstuck on one of the faults and there is an earthquake. While the edges of
faults are stuck together, and the rest of the block is moving, the energy that would normally
cause the blocks to slide past one another is being stored up. When the force of the moving
blocks finally overcomes the friction of the jagged edges of the fault and it unsticks, all that
stored up energy is released. The energy radiates outward from the fault in all directions in the
form of seismic waves like ripples on a pond. The seismic waves shake the earth as they move
through it, and when the waves reach the earth's surface, they shake the ground and anything
on it, like our houses and us! Why does the writer write the text?

Question 34 (1 point)
The Indus River Valley was once home to the most widespread and peaceful of the ancient
civilizations: the Indus Valley civilization also referred to as the Harappan civilization. Known
for its two major cities, Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro, this society lasted from roughly 3300
B.C. to 1300 B.C., yet it was only recently rediscovered within the last one hundred years.
Studies of the long-buried sites show surprising and interesting findings about the people,
culture, and structures that made up this great civilization. The phrase "early civilizations"
usually conjures up images of Egypt and Mesopotamia and their pyramids, mummies, and
golden tombs. But in the 1920s, a huge discovery in South Asia proved that Egypt and
Mesopotamia were not the only "early civilizations." In the vast Indus River plains (located in
what is today Pakistan and western India), under layers of land and mounds of dirt,
archaeologists discovered the remains of a 4,600-year-old city. A thriving, urban civilization
had existed at the same time as Egyptian and Mesopotamian states—in an area twice each
of their sizes. The people of this Indus Valley civilization did not build massive monuments
like their contemporaries, nor did they bury riches among their dead in golden tombs. There
were no mummies, no emperors, and no violent wars or bloody battles in their territory.
Remarkably, the lack of all these is what makes the Indus Valley civilization so exciting and
unique. While others civilizations were devoting huge amounts of time and resources to the
rich, the supernatural, and the dead, Indus Valley inhabitants were taking a practical
approach to supporting the common, secular, living people. Sure, they believed in an afterlife
and employed a system of social divisions. But they also believed resources were more
valuable in circulation among the living than on display or buried underground. Amazingly,
the Indus Valley civilization appears to have been a peaceful one. Very few weapons have
been found and no evidence of an army has been discovered. Excavated human bones
reveal no signs of violence, and building remains show no indication of battle. All evidence
points to a preference for peace and success in achieving it. So how did such a practical and
