Questions 61 - 65 carry two marks each.
61. The recent news that local hospitals have had to reroute seriously ill patients because
the community's critical-care beds are full is worrisome. Earlier this week, four of the
six local hospitals ran out of space for the critically ill and had to turn people away.
Federal law requires hospitals to treat anyone who walks in. As a result of having to
treat large numbers of uninsured patients, the emergency rooms often become an
economic drain on their hospitals. Doctors now want to set up their own free standing
ambulatory surgical facilities and diagnostic centers. Critics contend this would leave
hospitals with less revenue and the same number of indigents to treat.
A bill was recently introduced to phase out the need for a "certificate of public need"
for non-hospital based facilities, provided those facilities met stringent regulations and
requirements. This would have made it easier to set up alternative facilities to help
indigent patients. The finance committee balked at the hefty price and killed the bill,
another
casualty
of
a
failed
legislative
session.
Unfortunately, the problem of access to medical care for those of limited means is not
going to go away anytime soon and, despite the well-intended regulations, too-full
hospitals compromise everyone's welfare. Healthy competition with small
neighborhood surgical and diagnostic centers may be what is necessary to help dampen
rising medical costs. But under no circumstances should the hospitals be forced to care
for everybody without health insurance while competitors operate free of the burden of
caring for those unable to pay.
According to the passage, which of the following is cited as a factor which has
contributed to the overburdening of hospitals?
I. Failure to pass legislation which would have mitigated the problem
II. Limited access to medical care for the poor
III. Federal law
(A) I only

(C) I and II

(B) III only

(D) I, II, and III

62. Ram and Hari started from A and B, towards B and A at 6.00 am and 7.00 am

destinations. Ram reaching B turns back and catches up with Hari before Hari reaches A
at 11.00 am. At what time will Hari reach A.
(A) 7.00 pm

61. The levels of dissolved oxygen in the worlds ocean waters are declining
precipitously. Just like humans, fish need oxygen to survive, and so in ocean areas
experiencing significant levels of oxygen scarcity, or hypoxia, fish populations are
plummeting. Although some hypoxic areas, called dead zones, occur naturally,
hypoxia in coastal areas and inland waters is caused mainly by agricultural run-off
and by discharge of industrial wastewaters. More than one-hundred permanent
dead zones, many covering thousands of square miles, exist worldwide today.

Since reproductive success is the most critical factor in the sustainability of any
species, the extent of this threat to marine life and genetic diversity can hardly be
overstated. After several months in hypoxic waters, female fish produce fewer eggs.
Moreover, hypoxic conditions serve to alter the normal ratio between two particular
hormones manufactured during the embyonic stage when a fishs gender is
determined. During gestation and under these conditions, the mother produces
more testosterone (and less estradiol), which inhibits the development of female
reproductive organs and other female characteristics in the embryo, while
promoting the development of male traits.
The passage explicitly supports the assertion that hypoxia
(A) drives salt-water fish away from coastal waters
(B) poses a threat to the coastal fishing industry
(C) is the result of lax environmental regulation
(D) can occur independently of human activity
