There are those who claim that reductions in the spending on and deployment of weapons
systems……
There are those who claim that reductions in the spending on and deployment of weapons
systems would result in a so-called “climate of peace,” thereby diminishing the likelihood of
armed conflict. The facts show otherwise. These self-proclaimed pacifists are either the
victims or the propagators of a false argument.
1.Which of the following is an assumption underlying the conclusion of the passage above?
A. Military actions involving our forces can be instigated by any number of different factors
B. Our buildup of weapons systems and combat personnel has prevented our adversaries from
increasing their own spending on defense
C. The increased defense spending of the past 10 years has lessened the need for significant
military expenditure in future decades
D. At the present time, state-of-the-art weapons systems and the augmentation of combat
personnel are equally important to a nation’s defense
E. An established correlation between greater spending on weapons systems and a
decreased incidence of conflict will persist

Pilots must be scheduled in accordance with the following rules:
3.If X flies only one morning flight during the week, which of the following must be true?
A. W flies exactly two days during the week
B. X flies exactly three days during the week
C. Y flies only one day during the week
D. Z flies Monday afternoon and Friday afternoon

EXCEPT
A. X flies on Monday morning
B. V flies on Monday afternoon
C. Y flies on Thursday morning
D. Z flies on Friday afternoon
E. X flies on Friday morning
No actual black hole has yet been located or studied, but the concept has…………….
No actual black hole has yet been located or studied, but the concept has provided endless
imaginative fodder for science fiction writers and endless theoretical fodder for physicists
and astrophysicists.
Black holes are one of the more exotic theoretical manifestations of general relativity. The
standard model for the formation of a black hole involves the collapse of a large star. For
extremely massive stars that are four to five times the mass of our sun, the exclusion
principle—the resistance between the molecular particles within the star as they are
compressed—will not be strong enough to offset the gravity generated by the star’s own
mass. The star’s increasing density will overwhelm the exclusion principle. What follows is
runaway gravitational collapse. With no internal force to stop it, the star will simply
continue to collapse in on itself, until it reaches a point of infinite density and zero volume,
a phenomenon known as a singularity.
The star now disappears from the perceivable universe, like a cartoon character who
jumps into a hole and pulls the hole in after him. What this process leaves behind is a
different kind of hole—a profound disturbance in space time, a region where gravity is so
intense that nothing, not even light, can escape from it. Any object falling within the
boundary of a black hole will be sucked in and will disappear from our universe forever.
What would happen to an object, such as an astronaut, as it vanished into the black hole?
Physicists have been amusing themselves with this question for years. Most believe that the
astronaut would be destroyed by the intense gravitational forces within the black hole, or
would explode in a flash of gamma rays as he or she approached the singularity at the
hole’s core. Theoretically, an astronaut who managed to survive the passage would
experience some very strange things, including acute time distortion, which would enable
him or her to know, in a few brief seconds, the entire future of the universe in all its detail.
2. The opposing force between the molecular particles inside a star is called
A. general relativity

5. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as the possible fate of an astronaut who falls

There are those who claim that reductions in the spending on and deployment of weapons
systems……
There are those who claim that reductions in the spending on and deployment of weapons
systems would result in a so-called “climate of peace,” thereby diminishing the likelihood of
armed conflict. The facts show otherwise. These self-proclaimed pacifists are either the
victims or the propagators of a false argument.
1.Which of the following is an assumption underlying the conclusion of the passage above?
A. Military actions involving our forces can be instigated by any number of different factors
B. Our buildup of weapons systems and combat personnel has prevented our adversaries from
increasing their own spending on defense
C. The increased defense spending of the past 10 years has lessened the need for significant
military expenditure in future decades
D. At the present time, state-of-the-art weapons systems and the augmentation of combat
personnel are equally important to a nation’s defense
E. An established correlation between greater spending on weapons systems and a
decreased incidence of conflict will persist
No actual black hole has yet been located or studied, but the concept has…………….
No actual black hole has yet been located or studied, but the concept has provided endless
imaginative fodder for science fiction writers and endless theoretical fodder for physicists
and astrophysicists.
Black holes are one of the more exotic theoretical manifestations of general relativity. The
standard model for the formation of a black hole involves the collapse of a large star. For
extremely massive stars that are four to five times the mass of our sun, the exclusion
principle—the resistance between the molecular particles within the star as they are
compressed—will not be strong enough to offset the gravity generated by the star’s own
mass. The star’s increasing density will overwhelm the exclusion principle. What follows is
runaway gravitational collapse. With no internal force to stop it, the star will simply
continue to collapse in on itself, until it reaches a point of infinite density and zero volume,
a phenomenon known as a singularity.
The star now disappears from the perceivable universe, like a cartoon character who
jumps into a hole and pulls the hole in after him. What this process leaves behind is a
different kind of hole—a profound disturbance in space time, a region where gravity is so
intense that nothing, not even light, can escape from it. Any object falling within the
boundary of a black hole will be sucked in and will disappear from our universe forever.
What would happen to an object, such as an astronaut, as it vanished into the black hole?
Physicists have been amusing themselves with this question for years. Most believe that the
astronaut would be destroyed by the intense gravitational forces within the black hole, or
would explode in a flash of gamma rays as he or she approached the singularity at the
hole’s core. Theoretically, an astronaut who managed to survive the passage would
experience some very strange things, including acute time distortion, which would enable
him or her to know, in a few brief seconds, the entire future of the universe in all its detail.
