Q1. New research shows that some marine organisms such as eels are facing a severe threat to their survival because of the increasing marine noise pollution. Researchers found that when exposed to acute noises such as those typical of large fishing ships, European eels reacted very differently to predator attacks; the likelihood of their response to an ambush by a predator decreased by 50% and the reaction times of the ones that did respond were delayed by as much as 25%.

Which of the following can be concluded on the basis of the information given in the above passage?

A. In the presence of acute sounds such as those coming from a large fishing ship, marine organisms such as eels cannot hear predators approaching

B. Fishing ships contribute to the endangerment of many marine organisms both directly and indirectly.

C. For European eels, the likelihood of a delay in their reaction time to an ambush by a predator increases with the increase in noise pollution.

D. Marine noise pollution increases the likelihood of a marine predator successfully catching its prey in some instances.

E. When exposed to acute noises in a danger situation, some marine organisms lose control of most of their reflex actions.

Q2. The revival of Kranland’s automobile industry is being pitched as a beacon of hope in an economy that has been broadly flat for the most part of the last two years. It is being suggested that the industry can help boost the country’s economy by increasing its manufacturing output and resultant exports, and create high quality jobs. However, many economists claim that even if automobiles companies help increase the country’s exports, they will not be a major source of new jobs over the long term.

Which of the following best explains the reason for the doubt expressed by the economists?


A. The automobile industry does not create low-quality jobs.

B. Even though the exports of Sonic Automobiles, a manufacturing company in Kranland, grew more than 20% in the last year, its number of employees grew only by 5%.

C. The automobile industry is a capital intensive industry and frequently goes through cycles of growth and recession.

D. To succeed in the global manufacturing industry, a company has to be extraordinarily efficient, requiring the use of the same workforce for more production.

E. Ranland’s automobile companies are financially well off than their Kranlandian peers and can cut down their prices to gain market share

CR Butler Questions December - 12 :

Q1. Studies show that families in which both the husband and the wife are working normally tend to be single-child families. It is commonly understood that such partners prefer to have only one child because of the lack of time on their hands to raise more than one child. However, other studies have shown that in households that have both the husband and wife working but that have more than one child, the partners married each other in their early twenties. Since majority of the working parents in single-child households marry post the age of thirty-five, it is clear that the real reason such families have only one child is the age of the parents that does not biologically allow them to have more than one child.

In the argument given, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?


A. The first is an intermediate conclusion that supports the main conclusion of the argument; the second is used as a support for the position the argument seeks to establish.

B. The first is evidence for a position that the author does not agree with; the second is the main position taken by the argument.

C. The first is an explanation offered for an observation; the second is an observation that is used to support the position taken by the argument.

D. The first is an explanation offered for an observation; the second is that observation.

E. The first is a conclusion that supports the main conclusion of the argument; the second is a belief that too supports the main conclusion of the argument

q2. Journalist: Education systems sincerely need to evaluate the role played by teaching poetry at the elementary school level. Asking students learning the fundamentals of a language to read and understand poetry written in it is akin to asking students who cannot count to solve a highly complex Math equation. Also most of the poems taught at the elementary school level are not appropriate for students of that age as ______________________

Which of the following, if true, most logically completes the passage above?

A. students in general appreciate other forms of engagements with art such as dramatics and story-writing.

B. these students have not developed skills to access and research on the internet and learn more about the poems they are taught.

C. these poems are written on mature subjects such as loneliness, social-ills etc.

D. most of the teachers in elementary schools do not have a single field of specialization and teach multiple subjects.

E. such poems have very minimal use of linguistic expressions such as usage of metaphors and analogies.

In GMAT prep books I’ve always encountered multiple questions related to a singular passage

But maybe I thought that the choice of putting more questions related to the same passage was a matter of giving more testing opportunities to students

It is sequential. One question at a time. 4 passages with 3-4 questions each randomly thrown into the test. You should probably familiarize yourself with an actual test. A picture is worth a thousand words they say :angel:

CR Butler Questions December - 15 :

Q1. In an experiment undertaken by the management of a company to determine how to best motivate its employees, certain employees were sent weekly e-mails appreciating their work for two months. At the end of the two months, it was found in a survey conducted on all the employees that the ones not sent the e-mails on average reported less satisfaction from their work than the ones sent the mails. Therefore, in the long run, to keep the morale and productivity of its employees high, a company should appreciate the work of its employees on a regular basis.

Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument relies?

A. In the long run, the employees of a company that critically evaluates the work of its employees are less motivated than those of a company that only appreciates the work of its employees.

B. Eventually, the employees of a company that engages in regular appreciation of its employees’ work will understand the intention behind the appreciation coming their way

C. There are no other ways to motivate the employees than to regularly appreciate their work

D. Employees whose morale is low cannot generate productive work regularly

E. In the long run, regular appreciation of their work will not make the employees casual in their attitude towards work

Q2. Since the last few years, bird watching has become increasingly popular as a hobby in Ohio. The National Parks in Ohio have also been conducting bird watch programs for the past decade. Certainly, the increased interest in bird watching among the Ohio residents is because of the bird watch programs conducted by Ohio State National Parks.
