Exactly six piano classes are given sequentially on Monday: two with more than one student and four with exactly one student. Exactly four females -- Gimena, Holly, Iyanna, and Kate -- and five males -- Leung, Nate, Oscar, Pedro, and Saul -- attend these classes. Each student attends exactly one class. The following must obtain:

Iyanna and Leung together constitute one class.
Pedro and exactly two others together constitute one class.
Kate is the first female, but not the first student, to attend a class. Gimena's class is at some time after Iyanna's but at some time before Pedro's.
Oscar's class is at some time after Gimena's.

If Oscar and Pedro do not attend the same class as each other, then which one of the following could be true?

  1. Gimena attends the fifth class.
  2. Holly attends the third class.
  3. Iyanna attends the fourth class.
  4. Nate attends the fifth class.
  5. Saul attends the second class.

Answer(s): D



Exactly six piano classes are given sequentially on Monday: two with more than one student and four with exactly one student. Exactly four females -- Gimena, Holly, Iyanna, and Kate -- and five males -- Leung, Nate, Oscar, Pedro, and Saul -- attend these classes. Each student attends exactly one class. The following must obtain:

Iyanna and Leung together constitute one class.
Pedro and exactly two others together constitute one class.
Kate is the first female, but not the first student, to attend a class. Gimena's class is at some time after Iyanna's but at some time before Pedro's.
Oscar's class is at some time after Gimena's.

Suppose the condition that Oscar attends a class after Gimena is replaced with the condition that Oscar attends a class before Gimena and after Kate. If all the other conditions remain the same, then which class must Holly attend?

  1. the second
  2. the third
  3. the fourth
  4. the fifth
  5. the sixth

Answer(s): E

Explanation:

Now o is between K and G. So either n or s is first, K must be second, and the third and fourth positions are occupied by o and the I+l pair, in either order. The fifth position goes to G, and p is in the sixth position with the other of the n/s pair and. . . H! After all, Holly is the only entity left. So E. is correct



Combustion of gasoline in automobile engines produces benzene, a known carcinogen. Environmentalists propose replacing gasoline with methanol, which does not produce significant quantities of benzene when burned. However, combustion of methanol produces formaldehyde, also a known carcinogen. Therefore, the environmentalists' proposal has little merit.

Which one of the following, if true, most supports the environmentalists' proposal?

  1. The engines of some automobiles now on the road bum diesel fuel rather than gasoline.
  2. Several large research efforts are under way to formulate cleaner-burning types of gasoline.
  3. In some regions, the local economy is largely dependent on industries devoted to the production and distribution of automobile fuel.
  4. Formaldehyde is a less potent carcinogen than benzene.
  5. Since methanol is water soluble, methanol spills are more damaging to the environment than gasoline spills.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

You're asked which of the answer choices, if true, would most strengthen the environmentalists' proposal. Note that you're not asked to strengthen the author's argument. So, in this case you want to support the proposal that we should replace gasoline with methanol, because burning methanol does not produce benzene, a known carcinogen. The author points out, however, that burning methanol produces formaldehyde, which is also a carcinogen. In order to strengthen the environmentalists' proposal, you need an answer choice that either helps to explain why producing a different carcinogen is really no big deal, or perhaps gives additional benefits to burning methanol. Choice [Formaldehyde is...] works because it tells you that formaldehyde is a less potent carcinogen than benzene. The environmentalists' proposal is therefore strengthened because it makes sense to use the fuel that produces the less potent carcinogen. Note that this answer choice doesn't say that methanol is the perfect solution; it only adds support to the proposal that gasoline be replaced with methanol.



Economist: To the extent that homelessness arises from a lack of available housing, it should not be assumed that the profit motive is at fault. Private investors will, in general, provide housing if the market allows them to make a profit; it is unrealistic to expect investors to take risks with their property unless they get some benefit in return.

Which one of the following most accurately describes the role played in the economist's argument by the phrase "To the extent that homelessness arises from a lack of available housing"

  1. It limits the application of the argument to a part of the problem.
  2. It suggests that the primary cause of homelessness is lack of available housing.
  3. It is offered as evidence crucial to the conclusion.
  4. It expresses the conclusion to be argued for.
  5. It suggests a possible solution to the problem of homelessness.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

"To the extent that homelessness arises from a lack of available housing, it should not be assumed that profit motive is at fault" means that profit motive doesn't cause homelessness by reducing the availability of housing.
So the economist isn't claiming that profit motive doesn't cause homelessness in any way; he's just claiming that it doesn't cause homelessness by educing the availability of housing. So the phrase "To the extent that homelessness arises from a lack of available housing" limits the scope of the argument; the issue isn't "causes of homelessness" in general. Rather, it's the influence of profit motive on homelessness caused by the lack of available housing.



Physical education should teach people to pursue healthy, active lifestyles as they grow older. But the focus on competitive sports in most schools causes most of the less competitive students to turn away from sports. Having learned to think of themselves as unathletic, they do not exercise enough to stay healthy.

Which one of the following is most strongly supported by the statements above, if they are true?

  1. Physical education should include noncompetitive activities.
  2. Competition causes most students to turn away from sports.
  3. People who are talented at competitive physical endeavors exercise regularly.
  4. The mental aspects of exercise are as important as the physical ones.
  5. Children should be taught the dangers of a sedentary lifestyle.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The question stem tells us we're looking for an inference, so we should take the statements in the stimulus as true and see what follows from them. The first sentence describes some goals of physical education. But some schools turn non-competitive students away from sports by focusing on competitive activities. Those students don't exercise enough later. So while sports and physical education are good things, focusing on competitive activities alienates a part of the population these activities are designed to help. So option [Physical education should include...].is strongly supported. If physical education included noncompetitive activities, maybe those noncompetitive students will get some of the benefits.
