_______________________
CR 1

Draco Petrochemicals moves tens of tankers in and out of the heavily trafficked Port St. George every day. The company’s success depends on its ability to transport large chemical shipments with minimum delays. Consequently, Draco is planning to replace its largest tankers with new SPNSR tankers, whose cutting-edge architecture minimizes the need for routine maintenance. The SPNSR tankers’ durability in this regard results in both lower maintenance costs and less time lost to maintenance stops.

Which of the following, if true, could present the most serious disadvantage for Draco Petrochemicals in replacing its largest tankers with new SPNSR tankers?

A) The SPNSR tanker would enable Draco Petrochemicals to chart direct routes to destinations that currently require stops for maintenance.
B) Maintenance costs for deep-sea vessels are projected to decline over the next several years.
C) The cutting-edge architecture of the SPNSR tanker causes water current disruptions when leaving the harbor that force other ships to delay their departures.
D) None of Draco Petrochemicals’ competitors that use Port St. George is considering buying SPNSR tankers.
E) The durability of the SPNSR tanker would enable Draco Petrochemicals to eliminate maintenance at some of its destinations, but several mechanics would lose their jobs.

CR 2

Which of the following most logically completes the argument?

Fusarium is a fungal infection that frequently affects hydroponically grown strawberry bushes and is transmitted through fungal impurities in the mineral solutions used to grow the plants. Even though hydroponically grown tomato plants are often grown using the same type of mineral solution, fusarium is only rarely observed in tomato plants. This fact, however, does not indicate that most strains of tomato plants are immune to the fungi that cause fusarium, since___________________.

A. strawberry bushes and tomato plants are not the only types of hydroponic crops that are typically grown using the type of mineral solution liable to be contaminated with the fungi that cause fusarium
B. strawberry bushes and tomato plants typically take more than a year to show symptoms of fusarium, and hydroponically grown tomato plants, unlike strawberry bushes, are generally viable for only one harvest season and must be replanted every year.
C. resistance to some pathogens such as the fungi that cause fusarium can be acquired through exposure to a highly similar infectious pathogen
D. Fusarium has been found in hydroponic crops that have not been grown using the type of mineral solution liable to be contaminated with the fungi that can cause the disease
E. the type of mineral solution liable to be infected with the fungi that cause fusarium generally constitutes a larger portion of the hydroponics used to grow tomato plants than of strawberry bushes

_________________________
CR 1

The federal government of Byrcenstein has noted that an increasing amount of the funding it provides to its province-level initiatives is lost to misappropriations. Provinces with oversight institutions that monitor federal spending within the province are much less likely to see the misappropriation of federal funds than are other provinces. Consequently, the federal government, as part of an effort to reduce misappropriation, will offer additional funding to every province that sets up such an oversight institution.

Which of the following, if true, provides the strongest indication that the plan is likely to achieve its goal?

A. In five years or so, the additional funding that the federal government of Byrcenstein will be offering will amount to more than the cost of setting up an oversight institution to monitor federal spending within the province.
B. The number of provinces that have reported the misappropriation of federal funding in the past year is higher for Byrcenstein than for other countries.
C. The reduction in the risk of the misappropriation due to the establishment of oversight institutions is greatest when only a few provinces have such institutions.
D. Currently, the federal government of Byrcenstein cannot legally decrease the amount of funding it provides to its province-level initiatives.
E. The amount of funding that is provided to province-level initiatives by the federal government of Byrcenstein and lost to misappropriations has been higher for certain types of initiatives than for others.

CR 2

The easier it is to use public domain characters in an original work of art, the more artists choose to do so, and works of art that feature public domain characters usually cost less to produce than do works that feature copyrighted characters. Therefore, if the government ends any of limitations presently in place on the usage of public domain characters, such as removing the limitation forbidding the use of certain characters of significant cultural value, production costs of such artwork will decrease.

If the statements above are true, which of the following must be true?

A. If the limitations forbidding the use of certain characters of significant cultural value are ended, more artists will feature public domain characters in their work.
B. The entertainment industry will produce more works if there are fewer limitations on the use of public domain characters.
C. Some works of art that feature public domain characters will cost more to produce if the characters used are of significant cultural value.
D. If more works of art that feature public domain characters are produced, some works of art that do not do so will also cost less to produce.
E. If the only limitation on the use of public domain characters were those that apply to every public domain creation, most artists would feature public domain characters in their works.
