  1. Something must be done to ease traffic congestion. In traditional small towns, people used to work and shop in the same town in which they lived; but now that stores and workplaces are located far away from residential areas, people cannot avoid traveling long distances each day. Traffic congestion is so heavy on all roads that, even on major highways where the maximum speed limit is 55 miles per hour, the actual speed averages only 35 miles per hour.

  Which one of the following proposals is most supported by the statements above?

  (A) The maximum speed limit on major highways should be increased.

  (B) People who now travel on major highways should be encouraged to travel on secondary roads instead.

  (C) Residents of the remaining traditional small towns should be encouraged to move to the suburbs.

  (D) Drivers who travel well below the maximum speed limit on major highways should be fined.

  (E) New businesses should be encouraged to locate closer to where their workers would live.

  2. College professor: College students do not write nearly as well as they used to. Almost all of the paper that my students have done for me this year have been poorly written and ungrammatical.

  Which one of the following is the most serious weakness in the argument made by the professor?

  (A) It requires confirmation that the change in the professor’s students is representative of a change among college students in general.

  (B) It offers no proof to the effect that the professor is an accurate judge of writing ability.

  (C) It does not take into account the possibility that the professor is a poor teacher.

  (D) It fails to present contrary evidence.

  (E) It fails to define its terms sufficiently.

  Questions 3-4

  Mayor of Plainsville: In order to help the economy of Plainsville, I am using some of our tax revenues to help bring a major highway through the town and thereby attract new business to Plainsville.

  Citizens’ group: You must have interests other than our economy in mind. If you were really interested in helping our economy, you would instead allocate the revenues to building a new business park, since it would bring in twice the business that your highway would.

  3. The argument by the citizens’ group relies on which one of the following assumptions?

  (A) Plainsville presently has no major highways running through it.

  (B) The mayor accepts that a new business park would bring in more new business than would the new highway.

  (C) The new highway would have no benefits for Plainsville other than attracting new business.

  (D) The mayor is required to get approval for all tax revenue allocation plans from the city council.

  (E) Plainsville’s economy will not be helped unless a new business park of the sort envisioned by the citizens’ group is built.

  4. Which one of the following principles, if accepted, would most help the citizens’ group to justify drawing its conclusion that the mayor has in mind interests other than Plainsville’s economy?

  (A) Anyone really pursuing a cause will choose the means that that person believes will advance the cause the farthest.

  (B) Any goal that includes helping the economy of a community will require public revenues in order to be achieved.

  (C) Anyone planning to use resources collected from a group must consult the members of the group before using the resources.

  (D) Any cause worth committing oneself to must include specific goals toward which one can work.

  (E) Any cause not pursued by public officials, if it is to be pursued at all, must be pursued by members of the community.

  5. Recently, highly skilled workers in Eastern Europe have left jobs in record numbers to emigrate to the West. It is therefore likely that skilled workers who remain in Eastern Europe are in high demand in their home countries.

  Which one of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument?

  (A) Eastern European factories prefer to hire workers from their home countries rather than to import workers from abroad.

  (B) Major changes in Eastern European economic structures have led to the elimination of many positions previously held by the highly skilled emigrants.

  (C) Many Eastern European emigrants need to acquire new skills after finding work in the West.

  (D) Eastern European countries plan to train many new workers to replace the highly skilled workers who have emigrated.

  (E) Because of the departure of skilled workers from Eastern European countries, many positions are now unfilled.
