The following text is from the 1913 story “The King’s

Coin” by Emily Pauline Johnson, a Kanienkahagen

(Mohawk) writer also known as Tekahionwake.

Fox-Foot, a young Ojibwe man, is guiding a group of

fur traders who are traveling by canoe and suspects

that they are being followed.

At supper time, Fox-Foot would allow no fire to

be built, no landing to be made, no trace of their

passing to be left. They ate canned meat and

marmalade, drank again of the stream and

pushed on, until just at dusk they reached the

edge of a long, still lake, with shores of granite

and dense fir forest.

In the late 1800s, Spanish-language newspapers

flourished in cities across Texas. San Antonio alone

produced eleven newspapers in Spanish between

1890 and 1900. But El Paso surpassed all other

cities in the state. This city produced twenty-two

newspapers in Spanish during that period. El Paso is

located on the border with Mexico and has always

had a large population of Spanish speakers. Thus, it

is unsurprising that this city became such a rich site

for Spanish-language journalism.

Which choice best states the main purpose of the

text?

A) To compare Spanish-language newspapers

published in Texas today with ones published

there during the late 1800s

B) To explain that Spanish-language newspapers

thrived in Texas and especially in El Paso during

Chile’s Atacama Desert is one of the driest places on

Earth. Mary Beth Wilhelm and other astrobiologists

search for life, or its remains, in this harsh place

because the desert closely mirrors the extreme

environment on Mars. The algae and bacteria found

in Atacama’s driest regions may offer clues about

Martian life. By studying how these and other

microorganisms survive such extreme conditions on

Earth, Wilhelm’s team hopes to determine whether

similar life might have existed on Mars and to

develop the best tools to look for evidence of it.

Which choice best describes the function of the

underlined sentence in the text as a whole?

A) To contrast the conditions in the Atacama

Desert with those on Mars

B) To explain why many life-forms cannot survive

in the Atacama Desert

More than 60% of journeys in Mexico City occur via

public transit, but simply reproducing a feature of

the city’s transit system—e.g., its low fares—is

unlikely to induce a significant increase in another

city’s transit ridership. As Erick Guerra et al. have

shown, transportation mode choice in urban areas of

Mexico is the product of a complex mix of factors,

including population density, the spatial distribution

of jobs, and demographic characteristics of

individuals. System features do affect ridership, of

course, but there is an irreducibly contextual

dimension of transportation mode choice.

Which choice best describes the function of the

underlined portion in the text as a whole?

A) It presents an objection to the argument of

Guerra et al. about transportation mode choice

in urban areas of Mexico.

B) It explains why it is challenging to influence

transit ridership solely by altering characteristics

of a transit system.

C) It illustrates the claim that a characteristic

associated with high transit ridership in Mexico

City is not associated with high transit ridership

elsewhere.

D) It substantiates the assertion that population

density, the spatial distribution of jobs, and

demographic characteristics are important

factors in transportation mode choice.

Changes to vegetation cover and other human

activities influence carbon and nitrogen levels in soil,

though how deep these effects extend is unclear.

Hypothesizing that differences in land use lead to

differences in carbon and nitrogen levels that are not

restricted to the topsoil layer (0–30 cm deep),

Chukwuebuka Okolo and colleagues sampled soils

across multiple land-use types (e.g., grazing land,

cropland, forest) within each of several Ethiopian

locations. They found, though, that across land-use

types, carbon and nitrogen decreased to comparably

low levels beyond depths of 30 cm.

Which choice best describes the overall structure of

the text?

A) It describes a phenomenon that scientists do not

fully understand, explains a research team’s

hypothesis about that phenomenon, and then

describes a finding that led the team to refine the

hypothesis.

B) It introduces an unresolved scientific question,

presents a research team’s hypothesis pertaining

to that question, and then describes an

observation made by the team that conflicts with

that hypothesis.

C) It discusses a process that scientists are

somewhat unclear about, introduces competing

hypotheses about that process, and then explains

how a research team concluded that one of those

hypotheses is likely correct.

D) It explains a hypothesis that has been the subject

of scientific debate, discusses how a research

team tested that hypothesis, and then presents

data the team collected that validate the

hypothesis.

Recently, scientists looked at data collected by

NASA’s InSight lander to learn more about seismic

activity on Mars, known as marsquakes. The data

show that the marsquakes all started from the same

location on the planet. This discovery was surprising

to scientists, as they expected that the marsquakes

would originate from all over the planet because of

the cooling of the planet’s surface. Now, scientists

believe that there could be areas of active magma

flows deep beneath the planet’s surface that trigger

the marsquakes.

According to the text, what was surprising to

scientists studying the seismic activity data from

NASA’s InSight lander?

A) The surface temperature of Mars has been rising.

B) There were different types of seismic waves

causing marsquakes.

C) NASA’s InSight lander collected less data than

scientists had expected.

D) All the marsquakes started from the same

location on the planet.

The ancient writing system used in the Maya

kingdoms of southern Mexico and Central America

had a symbol for the number zero. The earliest

known example of the symbol dates to more than

2,000 years ago. At that time, almost none of the

writing systems elsewhere in the world possessed a

zero symbol. And the use of zero in Mexico and

Central America may be even more ancient. Some

historians suggest that Maya mathematicians

inherited it from the Olmec civilization, which

flourished in the region 2,400–3,600 years ago.

According to the text, what do some historians

suggest about Maya civilization?

A) Maya civilization acquired the use of zero from

the Olmec civilization.

B) Maya civilization respected its historians more

than it respected its mathematicians.

C) Maya civilization was highly secretive about its

intellectual achievements.

D) Maya civilization tried to introduce its writing

system to other civilizations.

The population of the coral Lophelia pertusa

declined significantly around 9,000 years ago in the

Alboran Sea and around 11,000 years ago near the

Mauritanian coast. Using the ratio of manganese to

calcium, which inversely correlates with ocean

oxygenation levels, marine scientist Rodrigo da Costa

Portilho-Ramos and colleagues evaluated whether

oxygenation played a role in the declines of

L. pertusa. The researchers concluded that

oxygenation may have been important in the

Alboran Sea but not near the Mauritanian coast,

The Younger Dryas was a period of extreme cooling

from 11,700 to 12,900 years ago in the Northern

Hemisphere. Some scientists argue that a comet

fragment hitting Earth brought about the cooling.

Others disagree, partly because there is no known

crater from such an impact that dates to the

beginning of the period. In 2015, a team led by

Kurt Kjær detected a 19-mile-wide crater beneath a

glacier in Greenland. The scientists who believe an

impact caused the Younger Dryas claim that this

discovery supports their view. However, Kjær’s team

hasn’t yet been able to determine the age of the

crater. Therefore, the team suggests that _______

Which choice most logically completes the text?

appendix, an intestinal organ that is present in some

mammals, including humans, but is generally

thought to have no function. Studying 533 mammal

species, the team found that the appendix has

emerged independently across multiple lineages

in separate instances and, significantly, hasn’t

disappeared after emerging in specific lineages.

Moreover, the team determined that species with

the organ tend to have higher concentrations of

lymphoid tissue, which supports immune responses,

in the cecum, the organ the appendix is attached to.

Therefore, the team hypothesized that the appendix

Some ethicists hold that the moral goodness of an

individual’s actions depends solely on whether the

actions themselves are good, irrespective of the

context in which they are carried out. Philosopher

L. Sebastian Purcell has shown that surviving works

of Aztec (Nahua) philosophy express a very different

view. Purcell reveals that these works posit an ethical

system in which an individual’s actions are judged in

light of how well they accord with the individual’s

role in society and how well they contribute to the

community. To the extent that these works are

representative of Aztec thought, Purcell’s analysis

suggests that _______

that the morality of an individual’s actions can

be fairly evaluated by people who do not live in

the same society as that individual.

C) actions by members of Aztec society who

contributed a great deal to their community

could be judged as morally good even if those

actions were inconsistent with behaviors the

Aztecs regarded as good in all contexts.

D) similar actions performed by people in different

social roles in Aztec society would have been

The following text is adapted from Jerome K.

Jerome’s 1889 novel Three Men in a Boat (To Say

Nothing of

the Dog). The narrator is traveling by boat

with Harris and another friend.

[Harris] told us anecdotes of how he had gone

across the [English] Channel when it was so

rough that the passengers had to be tied into

their [beds], and he and the captain were the

only two living souls on board who were not ill.

Sometimes it was he and the second mate who

were not ill; but it was generally he and one other

man. If not he and another man, then it was he

by himself.

Which choice best describes the function of the

underlined sentence in the text as a whole?

A) It indicates the reason for Harris’s eagerness to

resume traveling.

B) It hints at Harris’s feeling that during an earlier

boat trip, others didn’t include him in activities.

C) It emphasizes that Harris always boasts about his

own constitution when speaking of a previous

boat trip.

D) It reveals that although Harris claims to prefer

solitary activities when traveling, he actually

Several studies have found negligible electoral

consequences for governments that impose fiscal

austerity measures, yet some European governments

recently suffered electorally due to their austerity

programs. Evelyne Huebscher and colleagues

attribute this incongruity to governments’

tendency—not followed in the recent European

cases—to implement austerity programs strategically

to avoid electoral costs (e.g., setting spending cuts to

take effect only after the next election), which has

obscured the inherent political risks of austerity

measures in the election data scholars have

examined.

Which choice best describes the function of the

underlined sentence in the text as a whole?

A) It explains a discrepancy between what has been

observed in study settings and what has been

observed in real-world settings that the text goes

on to assert is attributable to the studies not

using real-world data.

B) It identifies a conflict between research findings

and recent events that the text goes on to suggest

is a consequence of a complicating factor in the

data used to generate those findings.

C) It presents a long-standing divergence in

research findings that the text goes on to say is

due to different groups of researchers using data

that derive from different electoral

circumstances.

D) It describes a recent exception to a general

pattern in research findings that the text goes on

to explain is a result of researchers

underestimating the significance of

inconsistencies in the data they’ve analyzed.

Text 1

Graphic novels are increasingly popular in

bookstores and libraries, but they shouldn’t be

classified as literature. By definition, literature tells a

story or conveys meaning through language only;

graphic novels tell stories through illustrations and

use language only sparingly, in captions and

dialogue. Graphic novels are experienced as series of

images and not as language, making them more

similar to film than to literature.

Text 2

Graphic novels present their stories through both

language and images. Without captions and dialogue,

readers would be unable to understand what is

depicted in the illustrations: the story results from

the interaction of text and image. Moreover, Alison

Bechdel’s Fun

Home and many other graphic novels

feature text that is as beautifully written as the prose

found in many standard novels. Therefore, graphic

novels qualify as literary texts.

Based on the texts, how would the author of Text 2

most likely respond to the overall argument

presented in Text 1?

A) By asserting that language plays a more

important role in graphic novels than the author

of Text 1 recognizes

B) By acknowledging that the author of Text 1 has

identified a flaw that is common to all graphic

novels

C) By suggesting that the story lines of certain

graphic novels are more difficult to understand

than the author of Text 1 claims

D) By agreeing with the author of Text 1 that most

graphic novels aren’t as well crafted as most

literary works are

Since its completion in 2014, Bosco Verticale

(Vertical Forest)—a pair of residential towers in

Milan, Italy, covered by vegetation—has become a

striking symbol of environmental sustainability in

architecture. Stefano Boeri intended his design,

which features balconies that are home to hundreds

of trees, to serve as a model for promoting urban

biodiversity. However, the concept has faced

skepticism: critics note that although the trees used

in Bosco Verticale were specifically cultivated for the

project, it’s too early to tell if they can thrive in this

unusual setting.

According to the text, why are some critics skeptical

of the concept behind Bosco Verticale?

A) Some essential aspects of Bosco Verticale’s

design are difficult to adapt to locations other

than Milan.

B) The plant life on Bosco Verticale ended up being

less varied than Boeri had envisioned it

would be.

C) The construction of Bosco Verticale was no less

environmentally damaging than the construction

of more conventional buildings is.

D) It is unclear whether Bosco Verticale can support

the plant life included in its design.

Many literary theorists distinguish between fabula, a

narrative’s content, and syuzhet, a narrative’s

arrangement and presentation of events. In the film

The

Godfather Part II, the fabula is the story of the

Corleone family, and the syuzhet is the presentation

of the story as it alternates between two timelines in

1901 and 1958. But literary theorist Mikhail Bakhtin

maintained that fabula and syuzhet are insufficient to

completely describe a narrative—he held that

systematic categorizations of artistic phenomena

discount the subtle way in which meaning is created

by interactions between the artist, the work, and the

audience.

Which choice best states the main idea of the text?

A) Literary theorist Mikhail Bakhtin argued that

there are important characteristics of narratives

that are not fully encompassed by two concepts

that other theorists have used to analyze

narratives.

B) Literary theorist Mikhail Bakhtin claimed that

meaning is not inherent in a narrative but is

created when an audience encounters a narrative

so that narratives are interpreted differently by

different people.

C) The storytelling methods used in The Godfather

Part II may seem unusually complicated, but

they can be easily understood when two concepts

from literary theory are utilized.

D) Narratives that are told out of chronological

order are more difficult for audiences to

understand than are narratives presented

chronologically.

Fish whose DNA has been modified to include

genetic material from other species are known as

transgenic. Some transgenic fish have genes from

jellyfish that result in fluorescence (that is, they glow

in the dark). Although these fish were initially

engineered for research purposes in the 1990s, they

were sold as pets in the 2000s and can now be found

in the wild in creeks in Brazil. A student in a biology

seminar who is writing a paper on these fish asserts

that their escape from Brazilian fish farms into the

wild may have significant negative long-term

ecological effects.

Which quotation from a researcher would best

support the student’s assertion?

A) “In one site in the wild where transgenic fish

were observed, females outnumbered males,

while in another the numbers of females and

males were equivalent.”

B) “Though some presence of transgenic fish in the

wild has been recorded, there are insufficient

studies of the impact of those fish on the

ecosystems into which they are introduced.”

C) “The ecosystems into which transgenic fish are

known to have been introduced may represent a

subset of the ecosystems into which the fish have

actually been introduced.”

D) “Through interbreeding, transgenic fish might

introduce the trait of fluorescence into wild fish

populations, making those populations more

vulnerable to predators.”

Inés Ibáñez and colleagues studied a forest site in

which some sugar maple trees receive periodic

fertilization with nitrogen to mimic the broader

trend of increasing anthropogenic nitrogen

deposition in soil. Ibáñez and colleagues modeled the

radial growth of the trees with and without nitrogen

fertilization under three different climate scenarios

(the current climate, moderate change, and extreme

change). Although they found that climate change

would negatively affect growth, they concluded that

anthropogenic nitrogen deposition could more than

offset that effect provided that change is moderate

rather than extreme.

Some climate models for the western United States predict that while

total annual precipitation may remain unchanged from the present

level, precipitation will become concentrated into fewer but more

intense rain and snow events. University of Texas climate scientist

Geeta Persad and her colleagues simulated how the amount of water

entering aquifers and the amount being used for irrigation purposes

would change if this were to occur. Persad and her colleagues

concluded that concentration of precipitation into fewer events would

result in a higher number of dry days, triggering more irrigation, but

that this change in irrigation output is highly sensitive to the baseline

concentration of precipitation that currently exists in an area.

Which choice best describes data from the table that support Persad

and her colleagues’ conclusion?

A) If baseline precipitation is somewhat concentrated, the amount of

water being used for irrigation will increase 0.4% for surface water

and 0.9% for groundwater, whereas the amount of water entering

aquifers will increase 11.0% if baseline precipitation is evenly

distributed.

B) If baseline precipitation is somewhat concentrated, water use for

irrigation will increase only slightly, whereas it will increase 9.0%

for surface water and 7.9% for groundwater if baseline

precipitation is evenly distributed.

C) If baseline precipitation is somewhat concentrated, the amount of

water entering aquifers will increase 4.9%, while the amount being

used for irrigation will increase 0.4% for surface water and 0.9% for

groundwater.

D) If baseline precipitation is somewhat concentrated, water use for

irrigation will decline by a small amount, whereas it will increase

11.0% for surface water and 9.0% for groundwater if baseline

precipitation is evenly distributed.

While researching a topic, a student has taken the

following notes:

• Earthquakes start at a point called a “focus” and

spread out from there as seismic waves.

• The two types of seismic waves that travel beneath

Earth’s surface are primary waves (P waves) and

secondary waves (S waves).

• P waves travel more quickly beneath Earth’s

surface than do S waves.

• P waves compress and expand the ground, causing

it to move backward and forward.

• S waves cause the ground to move from side

to side.

The student wants to emphasize a similarity between

P waves and S waves. Which choice most effectively

uses relevant information from the notes to

accomplish this goal?

A) P waves and S waves both travel beneath Earth’s

surface, causing the ground to move.

B) P waves travel away from an earthquake’s

starting point at a higher rate of speed than do

S waves.

C) Spreading out from the focus of an earthquake,

P waves move the ground backward and

forward.

D) Although P waves and S waves start at the same

point, they behave very differently.

For an electric field passing through a flat surface

perpendicular to it, the electric flux of the electric

field through the surface is the product of the electric

field’s strength and the area of the surface. A certain

flat surface consists of two adjacent squares, where

the side length, in meters, of the larger square is

3 times the side length, in meters, of the smaller

square. An electric field with strength

29.00

volts per

meter passes uniformly through this surface, which is

perpendicular to the electric field. If the total electric

flux of the electric field through this surface is

·4,640 volts meters

, what is the electric flux, in

·volts meters

, of the electric field through the larger

square?
