51.One variety of partially biodegradable plastic beverage
container is manufactured from small bits of plastic
bound together by a degradable bonding agent such
as cornstarch. Since only the bonding agent degrades,
leaving the small bits of plastic, no less plastic refuse
per container is produced when such containers are
discarded than when comparable nonbiodegradable
containers are discarded.

Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the
argument above?

(A)Both partially biodegradable and non-
biodegradable plastic beverage containers
can be crushed completely flat by refuse
compactors.

(B)The partially biodegradable plastic beverage
containers are made with more plastic than
comparable nonbiodegradable ones in order to
compensate for the weakening effect of the
bonding agents.

(C)Many consumers are ecology-minded and
prefer to buy a product sold in the partially
biodegradable plastic beverage containers
rather than in nonbiodegradable containers,
even if the price is higher.

(D)The manufacturing process for the partially
biodegradable plastic beverage containers
results in less plastic waste than the
manufacturing process for nonbiodegradable
plastic beverage containers.

(E)Technological problems with recycling currently
prevent the reuse as food or beverage
containers of the plastic from either type of
plastic beverage container.

Q102
Theater Critic: The play La Finestrina, now at Central
Theater, was written in Italy in the eighteenth century.
The director claims that this production is as similar to
the original production as is possible in a modern
theater. Although the actor who plays Harlequin the
clown gives a performance very reminiscent of the
twentieth-century American comedian Groucho Marx,
Marx's comic style was very much within the comic
acting tradition that had begun in sixteenth-century
Italy.

The considerations given best serve as part of an
argument that

(A)modern audiences would find it hard to tolerate
certain characteristics of a historically accurate
performance of an eighteenth-century play

(B)Groucho Marx once performed the part of the
character Harlequin in La Finestrina


(0 in the United States the training of actors in the
twentieth century is based on principles that do
not differ radically from those that underlay the
training of actors in eighteenth-century Italy

(D)the performance of the actor who plays
Harlequin in La Finestrina
does not serve as
evidence against the director's claim
（E）the director of La Finestrina
must have advised
the actor who plays Harlequin to model his
performance on comic performances of
Groucho Marx

Q104
104.Although the discount stores in Goreville's central
shopping district are expected to close within five
years as a result of competition from a SpendLess
discount department store that just opened, those
locations will not stay vacant for long. In the five years
since the opening of Colson's, a nondiscount
department store, a new store has opened at the
location of every store in the shopping district that
closed because it could not compete with Colson's.

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

(A)Many customers of Colson's are expected to do
less shopping there than they did before the
SpendLess store opened.

(B)Increasingly, the stores that have opened in the
central shopping district since Colson's opened
have been discount stores.

(C)At present, the central shopping district has as
many stores operating in it as it ever had.

(D)Over the course of the next five years, it is
expected that Goreville's population will grow at
a faster rate than it has for the past several
decades.

(E)     Many stores in the central shopping district sell
types of merchandise that are not available at
either SpendLess or Colson's.
