Between 1970 and 1980, energy consumption by United States industry peaked and then declined, so that by 1980 total industrial use of energy was below the 1970 level even though total industrial output had grown substantially in the same period. Industry must have instituted highly effective energy conservation measures in those years to have achieved such impressive results.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the conclusion of the argument?
(A) Many industries switched to the greatest extent possible from high-priced oil to lower-priced alternatives throughout the 1970's.
(B) Total residential energy consumption was higher in the United States in 1980 than it had been in 1970
(C) Many industrial users of energy had paid little attention to energy conservation prior to 1970.
(D) Industrial output grew less rapidly from 1970 to 1980 than it had from 1960 to 1970.
(E) The industries whose production dropped sharply during the 1970's included a disproportionately large number of energy-intensive industries.
答案:E

Many people acquire software programs for their home computers by illegally copying those programs rather than purchasing them. People who own home computers must be making, on average, fewer illegal copies of software programs than before, however,since the average number of software programs that people purchase to use on their home computers has increased substantially over the past five years.
Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument?
(A) The number of home computers in use has increased substantially over the past five years.
(B) Five years ago, about half of the software programs used on home computers had been illegally copied rather than purchased.
(C) Most people who have home computers use their computers more frequently the longer they have them.
(D) Few people who prefer to copy computer software programs illegally cannot copy the software programs they want because they have no acquaintances who have those software programs.
(E) On average, people with home computers have the same number of software programs today as people with home computers did five years ago.
答案:E

In the country of Laurelia, legal restrictions on the sale of lock-picking equipment were relaxed ten years ago, and since then Laurelia's burglary rate has risen dramatically. Hence, since legally purchased lock-picking equipment was used in most burglaries, reintroducing strict limits on the sale of this equipment would help to reduce Laurelia's burglary rate.
Which of the following, if true, gives the strongest support to the argument?
(A) Laurelia's overall crime rate has risen dramatically over the last ten years.
(B) There is wide popular support in Laurelia for the reintroduction of strict limits on the sale of lock-picking equipment.
(C) The reintroduction of strict limits on the sale of lock-picking equipment in Laurelia would not prevent legitimate use of this equipment by police and other public safety officials.
(D) Most lock-picking equipment used in Laurelia is fragile and usually breaks irreparably within a few years of purchase.
(E) The introduction five years ago of harsher punish-ments for people convicted of burglary had little effect on Laurelia's burglary rate.
答案:D
