As the best-informed and most dispassionate of the panel members, Dr. Camila Torrez was the most – of those offering views on fission technology.

  1. unsuspecting
  2. preposterous
  3. persuasive
  4. confusing
  5. temperamental

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

The use of conjunction “as” (meaning because), shows that the second part of the sentence must logically follow from the first part. The missing word must therefore describe a person who is best-informed and most dispassionate. Among the choices, it is only the word “persuasive” that can describe such a person. So, the answer is “persuasive”.



He was ____________in his vindictiveness, often feigning a disarming camaraderie while ____________his opportunity for revenge.

  1. impulsive; gauging
  2. harmless; preparing
  3. resolute; forgetting
  4. brazen; dreading
  5. devious; awaiting

Answer(s): E

Explanation:

The parson described is said to the “often a disarming camaraderie”, meaning that his friendship was not genuine, but was a pretended one. The use of the word “revenge” indicates that the person in whom he was pretending friendship was one who had harmed him earlier. So, the sentence must mean that the person described in the sentence was intent upon taking revenge for this earlier harm. He must therefore be looking for an opportunity to lake revenge, even while pretending friendship.
So, among the choices for the second missing word, only “preparing” and “awaiting” are appropriate. Such a clever person will obviously not be “harmless” in his vindictiveness. So, “harmless; preparing” is not a suitable choice for the first missing word.
“Devious” (meaning cunning) is what describes such a person perfectly, and fits in well in the first blank. So, “devious; awaiting” is the answer.



Those who seek the advice of scientists in this matter should recognize that, because the knowledge available is ____________. The reliability of the advice cannot be ____________.

  1. technical; documented
  2. coherent; explained
  3. explicit; understood
  4. inadequate; guaranteed
  5. extraneous; denied

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The words “documented”, “explained” and “understood” are not suitable adjectives for the noun “reliability”, and can straight-away be discarded for that reason.
Since it is logical to say that, if the available knowledge is inadequate, the reliability of the advice based on such limited knowledge cannot be guaranteed, “inadequate; guaranteed” is a suitable choice.
The pair “extraneous; denied” does not result in a logical sentence, and is wrong.



The ____________of modernist architecture ____________the natural human desire to celebrate the decorate, to take delight in ornament.

  1. elaborateness; neglects
  2. austerity; recognize
  3. embellishment; undermines
  4. severity; opposes
  5. uniformity; reflects

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The information that the second part of the sentence imparts is that there exists a natural human desire to celebrate and decorate, and to take delight in ornament. If modern architecture is “elaborate”, it would be fulfilling, and not neglecting, this desire. So, “elaborateness; neglects” is wrong.
If modern architecture is “austere”, it would be neglecting this natural desire, and not recognizing it. So, “austerity; recognize” is wrong.
If modern architecture is “embellishes”, it would again be fulfilling by this natural desire, and not be undermining it. So, “embellishment; undermines” is also wrong.
If modern architecture is “severe” (meaning austere), it would be opposing this natural desire. So, “severity; opposes” leads to a logical sentence, and is the correct answer.
Since there can be no uniformity about decoration or ornamentation, “uniformity; reflects” does not result in a logical sentence.
