Hi Ernestokay2050, Please post Quant questions in Quant sections. Otherwise, you will get ban from this thread :please:

Q1. “Physicalists” expect that ultimately all mental functions will be explainable in neurobiological terms. Achieving this goal requires knowledge of neurons and their basic functions, a knowledge of how neurons interact, and a delineation of the psychological faculties to be explained. At present, there is a substantial amount of fundamental knowledge about the basic functions of neurons, and the scope and character of such psychological capacities as visual perception and memory are well understood. Thus, as the physicalists claim, mental functions are bound to receive explanations in neurobiological terms in the near future. Which one of the following indicates an error in the reasoning in the passage? (A) The conclusion contradicts the claim of the physicalists. (B) The passage fails to describe exactly what is currently known about the basic functions of neurons. (C) The word “neurobiological” is used as though it had the same meaning as the word “mental.” (D) The argument does not indicate whether it would be useful to explain mental functions in neurobiological terms. (E) The passage does not indicate that any knowledge has been achieved about how neurons interact. Difficulty - Hard

Q2. Mainstream economic theory holds that manufacturers, in deciding what kinds of products to manufacture and what form those products should have, simply respond to the needs and desires of consumers. However, most major manufacturers manipulate and even create consumer demand, as anyone who watches television knows. Since even mainstream economic theorists watch television, their motive in advancing this theory must be something other than disinterested concern for scientific truth. The claim that manufactures manipulate and create consumer demand plays which one of the following roles in the argument? (A) It is one of the claims on which the conclusion is based (B) It is the conclusion of the argument (C) It states the position argued against (D) It states a possible objection to the argument’s conclusion (E) It provides supplementary background information Difficulty - Hard

CR Questions May - 19 :

Q1. Several companies have recently switched at least partially from memos written by hand on printer paper to memos written on a computer and sent electronically with no use of paper at all.

Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument above?

A. Many of the companies that have switched to electronic memos have increased the number of memos sent.

B. More printer paper was used to create manuals for the use of electronic memos than was used to write handwritten memos.

C. Companies that used more printer paper were more likely to switch to electronic memos than companies that used less printer paper.

D. Some of the industries that have switched at least partially to electronic memos still primarily use printer paper for other operations.

E. The amount of printer paper needed to explain the electronic memos is less than the amount that would have been used for handwritten memos.

CR Questions May - 21 :

Q1. Political Commentator: During the previous presidential administration, members of congress approved large tax cuts and yet the economy today stands in shambles. During the current economic crisis, those who espouse large tax cuts as an economic stimulus should consider the failure of tax cuts during the past eight years to prevent the current economic recession as conclusive evidence that tax cuts will not help the country escape from its current economic troubles.

Which of the following, if true, most weakens the argument above?

(A) The large tax cuts of the past administration targeted the capital gains on the financial investments of the ultra-rich while proponents of tax cuts today suggest cutting payroll taxes for both employers and employees.

(B) Economists from across the spectrum now agree that tax cuts helped stem the country’s most severe recession in history, which occurred about 70 years ago prior to industrialization in this country.

(C) Economists from across the spectrum predict that if Congress fails to pass the tax-cut legislation, which also includes government spending and much more, it could well be 15 years before the economy escapes the current recession.

(D) Economists from across the spectrum agree that these tax cuts will add less to the fiscal deficit than the tax cuts of the previous administration.

(E) During the most recent political campaign cycle, which featured many deceptive political attacks, the governor of a prosperous state attacked those who opposed tax cuts by citing his own state’s ostensible prosperity.

Q1. “Physicalists” expect that ultimately all mental functions will be explainable in neurobiological terms. Achieving this goal requires knowledge of neurons and their basic functions, a knowledge of how neurons interact, and a delineation of the psychological faculties to be explained. At present, there is a substantial amount of fundamental knowledge about the basic functions of neurons, and the scope and character of such psychological capacities as visual perception and memory are well understood. Thus, as the physicalists claim, mental functions are bound to receive explanations in neurobiological terms in the near future. Which one of the following indicates an error in the reasoning in the passage? (A) The conclusion contradicts the claim of the physicalists. (B) The passage fails to describe exactly what is currently known about the basic functions of neurons. (C) The word “neurobiological” is used as though it had the same meaning as the word “mental.” (D) The argument does not indicate whether it would be useful to explain mental functions in neurobiological terms. (E) The passage does not indicate that any knowledge has been achieved about how neurons interact. Difficulty - Hard

Which of the following statements, if true, most seriously weakens the occupational safety advocate’s argument? (A) Loggers are sometimes killed by problems with chainsaws other than the kickback of the chain. (B) Injuries from falling trees cause the vast majority of deaths in the logging industry. (C) The new chainsaw is inexpensive and easy to learn how to use. (D) There are other, equally safe chainsaws available, but the logging industry has not adopted them. (E) The chainsaw manufacturer’s claims about its product are supported by a study conducted by a government agency.

CR Questions May - 25 :

Q1. The strength of a suspension bridge rests in part on how deep the towers are anchored into the ground. During the first wave of suspension bridge construction, consistent with best-practices at the time, regulations required engineers to drill holes for the towers such that the portion of the tower below ground accounted for at least half of the height of the tower. After conducting an inspection into the depth of the holes drilled for the towers of the Watergate Bridge, constructed over 50 years ago during the first wave of suspension bridge construction, regulators noted that updated architectural norms and theory advised that the bridge’s towers should be reinforced to meet anticipated increases in usage.

Which of the following is most strongly supported by the information above?

A) In light of current architectural theory, the Watergate Bridge should be closed until reinforcements can be added.

B) The original regulations for the depth of the suspension tower failed to anticipate future changes in demand or architectural theory.

C) Even with the implementation of the reinforcements advocated by the new architectural norms, the bridge will still not be safe.

D) In light of the regulators’ findings, every suspension bridge built during the first wave of construction must be updated to provide additional strength and carrying capacity.

E) The action advocated by current architectural theory should not be undertaken since there is no evidence to guarantee that the reinforcements will be adequate or advisable in light of future architectural research.

Q2. Several companies have recently switched at least partially from memos written by hand on printer paper to memos written on a computer and sent electronically with no use of paper at all. Therefore, less printer paper will be used as a result of these changes than would have been used if these companies had continued to use handwritten memos.

Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument above?

A. Many of the companies that have switched to electronic memos have increased the number of memos sent.

B. More printer paper was used to create manuals for the use of electronic memos than was used to write handwritten memos.

C. Companies that used more printer paper were more likely to switch to electronic memos than companies that used less printer paper.

D. Some of the industries that have switched at least partially to electronic memos still primarily use printer paper for other operations.

E. The amount of printer paper needed to explain the electronic memos is less than the amount that would have been used for handwritten memos.
