Q4. A work of architecture, if it is to be both inviting and functional for public use, must be unobtrusive, taking second place to the total environment. Modern architects, plagued by egoism, have violated this precept. They have let their strong personalities take over their work, producing buildings that are not functional for public use.
Which one of the statements below follows logically from the statements in the passage?
(A) Unobtrusive architecture is both inviting and functional.
(B) Modern architects who let their strong personalities take over their work produce buildings that are not unobtrusive.
(C) An architect with a strong personality cannot produce buildings that functional well for the public.
(D) A work of architecture that takes second place to the environment functions well for public use.
(E) A work of architecture cannot simultaneously express its architect’s personality and be functional for public use.
First of all, you can use POE to eliminate A,C,D,E.
The reasonings in the passage, as you pointed out, are:
"both inviting and function for public use" (1)--> unobtrusive (2)
"strong personality take over the work" (3)-->not functional for public use (not 1)
(2) is required for (1) and (3) is sufficient for Not (1)
From the reasoning above, we cannot get (3)-->(2), as (2) might not be the only reason for (1). In another word, (2) is not sufficient for (1). However, in the passage it says "Modern architects, plagued by egoism, have violated this precept". So we can safely assume that the only reason that works from those modern architects who let their strong personality to take over their work are not functional is that they are unobtrusive. So B is right. i can not understand what mindfree explains in these sentences.
Although nondairy coffee lighteners made with coconut oil contain 2 grams of saturated fat per tablespoon, or 7 times more than does whole milk, those lighteners usually contain no cholesterol. Yet one tablespoon of such lighteners causes the consumer’s blood cholesterol to rise to a higher level than does an identical amount of whole milk, which contains 2 milligrams of cholesterol per tablespoon.
8. Which one of the following, if true, contributes most to an explanation of the apparent discrepancy noted above?
(A) Nutritionists recommend that adults consume as little saturated fat as possible and no more than 250 milligrams of cholesterol a day.
(B) One gram of saturated fat in food has roughly the same effect on blood cholesterol as 25 milligrams of cholesterol in food.
(C) Light cream, a dairy product that contains 5 times more cholesterol than does whole milk, is often chosen as a lightener by consumers who normally prefer whole milk.
(D) Certain nondairy coffee lighteners made without coconut oil contain less saturated fat and less cholesterol than does whole milk.
(E) The lower the saturated fat content of dairy products, the less cholesterol they usually contain.
