Answer to Question 31

Choice D is best. Choice A illogically compares skills to a disinclination;

choice B compares skills to many people. Choice C makes the comparison logical

by casting analytical skills as the subject of the sentence, but it is awkward

and unidiomatic to say skills bring out a disinclination. Also in C, the

referent of they is unclear, and weak to a degree changes the meaning of the

original statement. In E, have a disinclination... while willing is

grammatically incomplete, and admit their lack should be admit to their lack. By

making people the subject of the sentence, D best expresses the intended

contrast, which pertains not so much to skills as to people's willingness to

recognize different areas of weakness.

Answer to Question 32

Choice B is best. Choices A and C illogically state that some buildings were

both destroyed and damaged; or is needed to indicate that each of the buildings

suffered either one fate or the other. In using only one verb tense,were, A

fails to indicate that the buildings were constructed before the earthquake

occurred. Choices C and D use the present perfect tense incorrectly, saying in

effect that the buildings have been constructed after they were destroyed last

year. Choice E suggests that the construction of the buildings, rather than the

earthquake,occurred last year, thus making the sequence of events unclear. Only

B uses verb tenses correctly to indicate that construction of the buildings was

completed prior to the earthquake.

Answer to Question 33

Choice A is best. The activities listed are presented as parallel ideas and

should thus be expressed in grammatically parallel structures. Choice A

correctly uses the simple past tense defined to parallel organized and provided.

Choice A also correctly joins the last two parallel phrases with and and clearly

expresses the relationship of rights and obligations to resources. Choice C

preserves parallelism but is wordy, and its has no logical referent. Choices B,

D, and E each replace the verb phrase with a subordinate modifier, violating

parallelism and making the statements ungrammatical. Furthermore, it is unclear

what defining ... consumption in B is intended to modify; in D, whose

incorrectly attributes rights and obligations to resources', and E presents

rights and obligations as defining, rather than as being defined.

Answer to Question 34

Choices A, B, and C are flawed because the countable noun dioxins should be

modified by many rather than much, which is used with uncountable nouns such as

"work" and "happiness." In addition, both A and C incorrectly use the singular

verb comes with the plural noun dioxins. Choices C and D are needlessly wordy,

and D requires that before North Americans, to be grammatically complete. Choice

E, the best answer, is both grammatically correct and concise.

Answer to Question 35

A comma is needed after Rhone in choices A and D to set off the modifying

phrase that begins Vincent...;without the comma, the phrase appears to be part

of the main clause, and it is thus unclear what noun should govern the verb

sold. Furthermore, it in A has no logical referent, and being in D is not

idiomatic. Choices B and E produce the illogical statement that the painting was

the second highest price. Choice C, the best answer, avoids this problem by

using a noun phrase in which price clearly refers to $20.2 million. And by using

a comma after Rhone to set off the phrase that modifies The Bridge of

Trinquetaille, C makes the painting the subject of was sold.
