The social and political discourse of America continues to be permeated with idealism. An idealistic viewpoint asserts that the ideals of freedom, equality, justice, and human dignity are the truths that Americans must continue to aspire to. Idealists argue that truth is what should be, not necessarily what is. In general, they work to improve things and to make them as close to ideal as possible.

Skin coloration and markings have an important role to play in the world of snakes. Those intricate diamonds, stripes, and swirls help the animals hide from predators, but perhaps most importantly (for us humans, anyway), the markings can also indicate whether the snake is venomous. While it might seem counterintuitive for a venomous snake to stand out in bright red or blue, that fancy costume tells any nearby predator that approaching him would be a bad idea.

If you see a flashy-looking snake in the woods, though, those markings don’t necessarily mean it’s venomous: some snakes have found a way to ward off predators without the actual venom. The scarlet kingsnake, for example, has very similar markings to the venomous coral snake with whom it frequently shares a habitat. However, the kingsnake is actually nonvenomous; it’s merely pretending to be dangerous to eat. A predatory hawk or eagle, usually hunting from high in the sky, can’t tell the difference between the two species, and so the kingsnake gets passed over and lives another day.

Alan —

I just wanted to drop you a quick note to let you know I’ll be out of the office for the next two weeks. Elizabeth and I are finally taking that trip to France we’ve been talking about for years. It’s a bit of a last-minute decision, but since we had the vacation time available, we figured it was now or never.

Anyway, my team’s been briefed on the upcoming meeting, so they should be able to handle the presentation without any hiccups. If you have any questions or concerns, you can direct them to Joanie, who’ll be handling my responsibilities while I’m out.

Let me know if you want any special treats. I don’t know if you can take chocolate and cheese on the plane, but I’m going to try!

Best regards,

Michael

It had been a long morning for Julia. She’d been woken up early by the sound of lawn mowers outside her window, and despite her best efforts, had been unable to get back to sleep. So, she’d reluctantly got out of bed, showered, and prepared her morning cup of coffee. At least, she tried to anyway. In the kitchen she’d discovered she was out of regular coffee and had to settle for a decaffeinated cup instead.

Once on the road, her caffeine-free mug of coffee didn’t help make traffic less annoying. In fact, it seemed to Julia like the other drivers were sluggish and surly as well—it took her an extra fifteen minutes to get to work. And when she arrived, all the parking spots were full.

By the time she’d finally found a spot in the overflow lot, she was thirty minutes late for work. She’d hoped her boss would be too busy to notice, but he’d already put a pile of paperwork on her desk with a note that simply said “Rewrite.” She wondered if she should point out to her boss that she hadn’t been the one to write the reports in the first place, but decided against it.

When the fire alarm went off an hour later, Julia decided she’d had enough. She grabbed her purse and headed outside with her coworkers. While everyone else stood around waiting for the alarm to quiet, Julia determinedly walked to her car, fired up the engine, and set a course for home.

Which of the following is the most likely reason Julia did not return to work after the alarm?

The study showed that private tutoring is providing a significant advantage to those students who are able to afford it. Researchers looked at the grades of students who had received free tutoring through the school versus those whose parents had paid for private tutors. The study included 2,500 students in three high schools across four grade levels. The study found that private tutoring corresponded with a rise in grade point average (GPA) of 0.5 compared to students who used the school’s free tutor service and 0.7 compared to students who used no tutoring. After reviewing the study, the board is recommending that the school restructure its free tutor service to provide a more equitable education for all students.

Which of the following would weaken the author’s argument?

After looking at five houses, Robert and I have decided to buy the one on Forest Road. The first two homes we visited didn’t have the space we need—the first had only one bathroom, and the second did not have a guest bedroom.

The fourth house we looked at, on Rice Avenue, was stunning but well above our price range. The last home, on Forest Road, wasn’t in the neighborhood we wanted to live in. However, it had the right amount of space for the right price.

Which of the following conclusions is well supported by the passage?

38.

The greatest changes in sensory, motor, and perceptual development happen in the first two years of life. When babies are first born, most of their senses operate in a similar way to those of adults. For example, babies are able to hear before they are born; studies show that babies turn toward the sound of their mothers’ voices just minutes after being born, indicating they recognize the mother’s voice from their time in the womb.

The exception to this rule is vision. A baby’s vision changes significantly in its first year of life; initially it has a range of vision of only 8 – 12 inches and no depth perception. As a result, infants rely primarily on hearing; vision does not become the dominant sense until around the age of 12 months. Babies also prefer faces to other objects. This preference, along with their limited vision range, means that their sight is initially focused on their caregiver.

In Greek mythology, two gods, Epimetheus and Prometheus, were given the work of creating living things. Epimetheus gave good powers to the different animals. To the lion he gave strength; to the bird, swiftness; to the fox, sagacity; and so on. Eventually, all of the good gifts had been bestowed, and there was nothing left for humans. As a result, Prometheus returned to heaven and brought down fire, which he gave to humans. With fire, human beings could protect themselves by making weapons. Over time, humans developed civilization.
