NOte hOW it resembles questions on the passage's purpose or main idea. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? (A) Unsung Black Artists of America (B) A Hard Row to Hoe: The Struggles of LOiS Jones (C) Locke and Jones: Two Black Artistic Pioneers (D) African and Haitian lnfluences on ・ Lois Mailou Jones (E) The Making of an Artist: Lois Mailou Jones When you are trying tO select the best title for a passage, watch out fO 「 words that come straight out Of the passage. They may not always be your best choice. Consider Choice C. Though the author men- tions Alain LOCke and suggests the importance Of his influence in prompting Jones tO use her experi- ences as a black American in her art, the passage as a whole is about Jones, not about Locke and Jones. Likewise, although the passage refers tO Afri- can and Haitian influences in her imagery and style, the passage iS about hOW Jones's experiences formed her as an artist, not about the specific influ- ences on her Style. Choice D iS t00 narrow in scope tO be a good title fO 「 this text. Ch0ice A has the opposite p 「 Ob m. As a title for this passage, Unsung Black Artists Of America is far t00 broad. This passage concerns itself with a par- ticular black artist whose fame deserves tO be sung. While Choice B limits itself to Jones, it t00 has a flaw. The passage clearly does not dwell on Jones's struggles; instead, it focuses on influences on her artistic growth. Of the titles suggested, Choice E is best. The pas- sage refers tO the many and varied experiences that have made Jones an important figure in the world of art. FoIIowing her progress step by step, it portrays "the making Of an artist.

Read the following scientific passage from a recently published SAT and apply this tactic. Prostaglandins are short-lived hormonelike substances made by most cells in the b0dy after injury or shock. They are responsible for a number 0f physiological reactions. Prostaglandins have been shown tO influence blOOd pressure, muscle contraction, and bIOOd coagulation and are involved in producing pain, fever, and inflammation. When released from platelets—minute discs in the blood—a prostaglandin derivative called thromboxane makes the platelets clump together and thus initiates clotting. ln 円 71, John Vane, a British researcher, discovered that aspirin interferes with the synthesis Of prostaglandins. Scientists now know that aspirtn relieves pain by inactivating cyclooxygenase, an enzyme that aids in initiating the synthesis Of prostaglandins. When scientists realized that aspirin can alSO interfere with clotting 、 they began tO wonder whether it could help prevent heart attacks and strokes. which are often caused by b100d clots that block arteries in the chest and neck. Studies now indicate that IOW daily doses Of aspirin can cut the risk Of a second heart attack by about twenty percent and the risk of a second stroke by nearly half. lt seems logical tO assume that if the drug can prevent second heart attacks 、 it can also ward Off an attack the first time around. Therefore, many doctors recommend an aspirin tablet every 0ther day t0 people whO have high 00d pressure or Other symptoms that increase the risk Of heart attacks.

Test 7/Section 3 721 this period should read this b00k facing eastward. who have always 100ked westward when reading about using their own words WheneVer POSSible. Americans Yet they are not alllost, those lndian voices of the past. A few authentic accounts Of American western history were recorded by lndians either in pictographs or in translated English, and some managed t0 get pub- lished in obscure journals, pamphlets, or b00ks 0f small circulation. ln the late nineteenth century, when the white man's curiosity about lndian survivors Of the wars reached a high point, enterprising newspaper reporters frequently interviewed warriors and chiefs and gave them an opportunity tO express their opinions on what was happening in the West. The quality of these inter- views varied greatly, depending upon the abilities 0f the interpreters, or upon the inclination Of ・ the lndians tO speak freely. Some feared reprisals for telling the truth, while others delighted in hoaxing reporters with tall tales and shaggy-dog stories. Contemporary newspaper statements by lndians must therefore be read with skep- ticism, although some Of them are masterpieces Of irony and Others burn with outbursts Of poetic fury. Among the richest sources Of first-person statements by lndians are the records Of treaty councils and Other formal meetings with civilian and military representa- tives Of the United States government. lsaac Pitman's new stenographic system was coming intO vogue in the second half 0f the nineteenth century, and when lndians spoke in council a recording clerk sat beside the official interpreter. Even when the meetings were in remote parts Of the 、 Mest, someone usually was available tO write down the speeches, and because Of the slowness Of the translation process, much Of what was said could be recorded in longhand. lnterpreters quite often were half-bloods wh0 knew spoken languages but seldom could read or write. Like most oral peoples they and the lndians depended upon imagery tO express their thoughts, SO that the English translations were filled with graphic similes and metaphors 0f the natural world. If an eloquent lndian had a poor interpreter, his words might be transformed tO flat prose, but a good interpreter could make a poor speaker sound poetic. Most lndian leaders spoke freely and candidly in councils with white officials, and as they became more sophisticated in such matters during the 70 ' s and 1880 ' s , they demanded the right to choose their own interpreters and recorders. ln this latter period, all members Of the tribes were free tO speak, and some Of the Older men chose such opportunities tO recount events they had witnessed in the past, or sum up the histories of their peoples. Although the lndians wh0 lived through this doom period 0f their civilization have vanished from the earth, millions 0f their words are pre- served in official records. Many Of the more important council proceedings were published in government documents and reports.

Answer all questions following a passage on the basis Of what is stated or implied in that passage. The money-changers have two irregular modes Of making a profit by their traffic: if they state the fair price Of silver tO the customer, they cheat him in the weight; if their scales and their method Of weighing are accurate, they diminish the price Of silver accordingly. But when they have to dO with Tartars, they employ neither Of these methods Of fraud: on the contrary, they weigh the silver scrupulously, and sometimes allow a little overweight, and they pay them above the market price. ln fact, they appear t0 be quite losers by the transaction, and SO they would be, if the weight and the price Of the silver alone were considered. Their advantage iS derived, in these cases, from their manner Of calculating the amount. When they come tO reduce the silver int0 sapeks, they d0 indeed reduce it, making the most flagrant miscalculations, which the Tartars, whO can count nothing beyond their beard, are quite incapable 0f detecting, and which they, accordingly, adopt implicitly, and even with satisfaction, always considering they have sold their bullion well, since they know that the full weight has been allowed, and that the full market price has been given. Free unrhymed verse has been practiced for some thousands Of years and reaches back tO the incantation which linked verse with the ritual dance. lt produced a communal emotion: the aim Of the cadenced phrases was tO create a state Of mind. The general coloring Of free rhythms in the poetry Of today is very different. The predominant pattern of poetry today is that of speech rhythm, composed in the sequence Of the musical phrase, not in the sequence Of the metronome, the regular beat. ln the twenties, conventional rhyme fell into almost complete disuse. This liberation from rhyme became as well a liberation of rhyme. Freed of its exacting task Of supporting lame verse, it could be applied with greater effect where wanted for some special effect. Such break in the tradition 0f rhymed verse had the healthy effect Of giving it a fresh start, released from the hampering convention Of t00 familiar cadences. This refreshing and subtilizing Of the use Of rhyme can be seen everywhere in the poetry Of today. 26. 27. 28.

(Main ldea) The descriptions of the bright and shiny kitchen where you 、、 could see yourself in the big copper boilers' ' and Of tiny, witch-like Maria with her long nose and long chin belong tO the realm Of fairy tales. (Technique) The passage mentions the matron twice: once, in the opening line, where she gives Maria permission tO leave work early; once, in lines 18 ー 20 , where she pays Maria a compliment. Given this information, we can logically infer that Maria views the matron positively, finding her a benevolent or kindly supervisor. Choices A, B , and C are incorrect. Nothing in the passage suggests Maria has a negative view of the matron. Choice D iS incorrect. Given Mana's menial position, it is unlikely she and the matron would be close or intimate friends.

She speaks soothingly and respectfully. Therefore, Ch0ice A is incorrect. ChOice B is implied in the passage as characteristic Of Maria. Mana's response tO Ginger Mooney's toast shows her en 」 oyment Of being noticed in this way. Therefore , Choice B iS incorrect. ChOice C is implied in the passage as characteristic Of Maria.

(lnference) The concluding sentence of the opening paragraph mentions factors that produced the crop Of BIack writers whO made up the Harlem Renaissance. The subsequent paragraph cohtinues the discussion Of these social and political factors. Choice A is incorrect.

The movement that has variously been called the 、、 HarIem Renaissance," the 、、 Black Renaissance," and the 、、 New Negro Movement" was essentially a part Of the growing interest Of American literary circles in the immediate and pressing SOCial and economic problems. This growing interest coincided with two developments in Negro life that fostered the growth of the New Negro Movement. These tWO factors, the keener realization Of injustice and the improvement Of the capacity for expression, produced a crop Of Negro writers whO constituted the 、、 Harlem Renaissance. The literature Of the Harlem Renaissance was, for the most part, the work Of a race-conscious group. Through poetry, prose, and song, the writers cried out against SOCial and economic wrongs. They protested against segregation and lynching. They demanded higher wages, shorter hours, and better conditions of work. They stood for full social equality and first-class citizenship. The new ViSion Of SOCial and economic freedom which they had did not force them to embrace the several foreign ideologies that sought tO sink their roots in some American groups during the period. (35) ( 4 の ( 45 ) (5 の (55) ( 6 の ( 乃 ) ( 7 の (65) The writers of the Harlem Renaissance, bitter and cynical as some Of them were, gave little attention tO the propaganda Of the socialists and communists. The editor Of the Messenger ventured the opinion that the New Negro was the 、 product 0f the same world-wide forces that have brought into being the great liberal and radical movements that are now seizing the reins Of power in all the civilized countries Of the world. ' ' Such forces may have produced the New Negro, but the more articulate Of the group did not resort tO advocating the type Of political action that would have subverted American constitutional government. lndeed, the writers Of the Harlem Renaissance were not SO much revolting against the system as they were protesting its inefficient operation. ln this approach they proved as characteristically American as any writers Of the period. Like his contemporaries, the Negro writer was merely becoming more aware Of America's pressing problems ; and like the others, he was willing to use his art, not only tO contribute tO the great bOdy Of American culture but alSO tO improve the culture Of which he was a part. lt seems possible, moreover, for the histonan tO assign tO the Negro writer a role that he did not assume. There were doubtless many WhO were not immediately concerned with the injustices heaped on the Negro. Some contrived their poems, novels, and songs merely for the sake Of art, while Others tOOk up their pens tO escape the sordid aspects Of their existence. If there iS an element Of race in their writings, it iS because the writings flOW out Of their individual and group experiences. This is not tO say that such writings were not effective as protest literature, but rather that not all the authors were conscious crusaders for a better world. AS a matter Of fact, it was this detachment, this objectivity, that made it possible for many Of the writers Of the Harlem Renaissance tO achieve a nobility of expression and a poignancy Of feeling in their wrltings that placed them among the masters Of recent American literature. & 0 0N T0 THE NEXT PAGE

Dickens' attitude had nothing t0 d0 with た行 c な川 or disbelief. Choice E is incorrect. Dickens was certainly not 夜なん″ⅵ as 行 c about his suffermgs. (Attitude/Tone) If trade unionism and similar labor movements arise because employers are not fatherly enough , greater paternalism and われど VO れ c (kindliness) on the owners' parts should cure such labor problems. Ch0ice A is incorrect. Lines 65 ー 68 state 、 there is no sign" Dickens wanted the workers tO take their destiny intO their own hands. This implies that he would not have favored protest marches, even nonviolent ones . Choices C and D are incorrect. Dickens apparently opposed apprentices' associations and similar labor organizations. Choice E is incorrect. The passage states that Dickens disbelieved 、、 that any good can come out of Parliament. (lnference) The author states that Dickens' time as a Par- liamentary shorthand writer 、、 was no doubt a disillusioning expenence. ' ' This disillusion- ment led t0 his despising politics. ln Other words, his 女川浦砒め , with Parliament み尾 d CO れ川〃た (lnference) The opening sentence states that ethology and behavionst psychology ( 川 , 0 圧 g ど 0 ) illustrate the distinction between learnlng and instinct ( わ e んⅵ ora / 〃′ OC ど 5 ). The discussion 0f these two theories that follows explains the behavioral processes. Choice A is incorrect. The passage does not suggest that one behavioral theory is more effective than another. Choice B is incorrect. The passage sums up current theories ; it does not propose a new one in their place. Choice D is incorrect. The passage presents Pavlov's arguments in the course Of explaining behaviorist psychology ; it does not dispute them. Choice E is incorrect.

(Main ldea) ln lines 15 ー 17 , the author states that Lorenz and Tinbergen were, with Frisch, the founders of ethology (the study 0f instinct). 29. 30. E. E. Choice A is incorrect. Only Lorenz and Tinbergen are cited for their work with the egg-rolling response in geese ; nothing in the passage suggests that Frisch worked with egg- rolling. Choice C is incorrect. lt is unsupported by the passage ・ Choice D is incorrect. Behavionsts, not ethologists, are cited as favoring strictly controlled conditions (line 44 ー 47 ). ChOice E is incorrect. Nothing in the passage suggests the ethologists have invalidated the behaviorists' approach. (Specific Details) What is remarkable about the goose's response is that 、、 at first glance (it) might seem tO be a thoughtful solution tO a problem. ' ' This suggests that the appearance Of 〃甲 0 れ d ⅲ花〃 igence is what makes the act remarkable or noteworthy. Choice B is incorrect. This is an aspect Of the goose's response; it is not what makes the goose's response noteworthy. lt is not remarkable for an egg-rolling response tO be triggered by an egg ・ Choice C is incorrect. The egg-rolling response supports ethological theories ; it does not refute or disprove them. Choice D is incorrect. This is an aspect Of the goose's response, not what makes the goose's response noteworthy. Choice E is incorrect. lt is bOth inaccurate factually (the response lasts longer than four weeks) and not an aspect Of the goose's response that would be noteworthy. Remember, when asked tO make inferences, base your answers on what the passage implies, not what it states directly. (lnference) Choice E is correct. You can arrive at it by the process Of elimination. Statement I is true. Behaviorists such as Pavlov worked with the unconditioned responses Of animals. Therefore, you can eliminate Choices B and C.
