Answer A - This question is concerned with classification of crimes into sets-that is, with the classification of crimesas either in se or malum prohibitum. The last phrase in the last sentence tell us that many jurosdictions make the distinction, some jurisdictions make the distinction. From the fact that many jurisdictions make the distinction, it cannot be inferred that many do not make the distinction. Therefore, Response B is incorrect Response C, D, and E are based on erroneous definitions of the two classes of crimes. The paragraph tell us that all crimes characterized as amlum in se are inherently evil. Respone D is false because it cannot be the case that SOME crimes characterized as malum in se are NOT inherently evil. The paragraph also tell us that all crimes characterized as malum prohibitum are declared as offense by a legislature. Respose E is false because it cannot be the case that SOME crimes characyerized as malum prohibitum are NOT declared by a legislature to be an offense. In the paragraph, we are old that filling a tax return late is malum prohibitum, rather than malum in se. Response D is incorrect because it cannot be the case failing to file a tax return is malum in se.
Answer D - The second sentence states that the liabilty rule for common carriers: all common carriers are liable for cargo damage unless they can show they are not negligent; if they can show that they are not negligent, then they are not liable fo cargo damage. Claus Inc. is a common carrier, and accordingly this rule applies to it. From this rule it follows taht if Claus Inc. can show it was negligent, then it is not liable, Response D. Response B contradicts this rule by claiming that when Claus Inc. is liable it can show that it was not negligent. Response C contradicts this rule by claiming that when Claus Inc, is not liable even when it cannot show that it is not negligent. Response E and A concern Nichols Inc., a contract carrier. However, the terms of the Nichols Inc. contract were not disclosed in the paragraph, so neither response is supported.
Answer: C - This is an example of a test question with a negative lead-in statement. It ask for the conclusion that is NOT supported by the paragraph. That mean that four of the statements are valid conclusions from the paragraph while one is not. Response A (some messages that people would never say face-to-face are sent in e-mail messages) is a valid conclusion because it restates a fact given in the last sentence of the paragraph. Response B (some e-mail messages contain information that would be omitted from formal writing) is valid it restates the other fact in the last sentence of the paragraph. The next-to-last sentence in the paragraph is the source of both response E (some e-mail messages have been requested as part of investigations) and response D (e-mail messages have not been exempted from investigations). Both of these choices restate information in the sentence, based on the fact that access to e-mail messages was sought and granted. this leaves only the first option, response C (some e-mail messages that have been requested as part of investigations have contained messages that would never be said face-to-face). This is the only choice that does NOT represent a valid conclusion, because even though we know from the paragraph that there is a group of e-mail messages that are requested in investigations and also taht there are group of messages that contain information that people would not say face-to-face, there is nothing that says that these groups overlap. we simply do not know.
Answer: A - This question concerns an either/or situation. The paragraph states that benefits under the Federal Employees Compensation Act are awarded at one level (3/4 of salary) if a beneficiary is married or has dependents when injured and at another level (2/3 of salary) if this is not true. Phyllis T is eligible for benefits under the Act. The paragraph states that Phyllis T . benefit level was 2/3 of her salary. Given this benefit level, it is clear that Phyllis T did not meet either of the conditions for the 3/4 level.
Answer: D - Response E is correct because it restates the third sentence in terms of the overlap between immigrants and engineers in the country described in the paragraph. response C says that most immigrants are not employed in professional occupations, so Response C is also false. Response A is false because it denies that there is any overlap between immigrants and nurses, even though this overlap is clear from the third sentence of the paragraph. Response B is false because it denies the overlap between immigrants and engineers. Because the paragraph does not give complete information about the non-professionals (immigrants and nonimmigrant) in the country described in the paragraph, Response E is invalid.
Answer : A - This question ask for the response option that cannot be validly concluded from the information in the paragraph. The only response option that cannot be validly concluded in Response A, so the correct answer is Response A. Response A is invalid because the paragraph does not provide enough information to conclude whether or not it would be possible to identify the person to whom the fingerprint belong from the mere fact that the fingerprint are decipherable.
Anwer: B - The correct answer is B. The third sentence states the overlap between all mechanical explosives and device in which physical reaction is produced, such as that caused by overloading a container with compressed air. From this, we can safely conclude that some devices in which physical reaction is produced, such as that caised by overloading a container with compressed air, are mechanical explosives. Response C is incorrect because the paragraph does not provide sufficient information to validly conclude that all explosives which have been restricted to military weapons are nuclear weapons. It may be that some types of explosives other than nuclear weapons also have been restricted to military weapon. Response A and D are incorrect becaise they contradict the paragraph. response A contradicta the third sentence, and Response D contradicts the last sentence.response E is incorrect because the paragraph provides no information about wether or not mechanical explosives are restricted to military weapons.
Answer: B - We know the second sentence that 90% of the people in this district have fingerprints that can be coded. Therefore, we know that 10% (100%-90%=10%) have fingerprints that cannot be coded. Given this information, the chance of selecting a person from this district with fingerprints that can be coded is 90% and the chance of selecting a person from this district with fingerprints that cannot be coded is 10%. Response C is incorrect because a probability of 10% is an underestimate of the probability that the fingerprints of a person from this district can be coded. Response A is incorrect because, response B, is an underestimate. Response E is incorrect it is an overestimate of the probability that the fingerprint of a person from his district cannot be coded. response D is incorrect because the probability that the fingerprints can be coded is known to be 90%.
Answer: B - According to the first sentence, 25% of the nation's incoming cargo containers are shipped to the port of Cary. This means that 75% of the nation's incoming cargo containers are not shipped to the port of Cary. Therefore, there is a 75% chance that the container taken at random was not shipped to the port of Cary. Responses A and D are incorrect because there is a 10% chance that the container was shipped to the port of Davidson. response E is incorrect because there is a 90% chance that the container was not shipped to the port of Davidson. Response B is incorrect because there is a 25% the chance that the container was shipped to the port of Cary.
Answer: E - The second sentence of the paragraph states that whenever blood is present, all officers at the Callen Precinct use only disposable items for collecting evidence. this is equivalent in meaning to answer E, that no officers use non-disposable items when collecting evidence in the presence of blood. Response A contradicts the second sentence in the paragraph by stating that some officers do not use disposable items exclusively when blood is present. response B, C, and D refer to the evidence-gathering procedure of Detective R.C., who is identified in the third sentence of the paragraph as working for the callen Precinct. Response B contradicts the sense of the second sentence by stating that Detective R.C. does not always use disposable items when blood is present. response C and D refer to RC's evidence gathering when blood is not present. However, the paragraph does not give us information about evidence gathering in that case.
Answer D - $32 x 25 = 800; 800 x .2 = 160; $800 - 160 = $640. The second way to calculate the problem is, $800 x .80 = $640
Answer D 108 divided by 1.8 - 60.0 kg
Answer A - Legal stickers = 2/5; illegal stickers = 3/5 3/5 x 1,500 = 900.
Answer D - The correct use of the word "principles" refers to rules, laws, or standard that are applied to the method of dog training. By contrast, the word "principal" means first or foremost in importance.
Answer D - The correct term is "associated with" and not "associated from". Objects are "associated with" one another, which means they are related to each other in some way.
The sentence should read as follows: The impact of this training will be measured by the number of new CBP Officers who successfully complete the probationary period. This is a well-constructed sentence in both grammar and syntax.
Answer E This question is about the canine team in Officers Daven's sector. According to the last sentence in the paragraph, all of the canine teams must be available to travel to any duty station within the sector. This is equivalent to saying that none of the teams are exempt from traveling to any duty location within the sector, Response E. Response A and D contradict the information in the last sentence. The third sentence in the paragraph inform us that the most teams are stationed along the border. Response B and C contradict this information.
Answer A Combining the information in the last two sentences we know that if it is a holiday weekend, then special funding is needed from the city council (due to assigning additional staff to duty). Accordingly, if special funding is not needed, then it must not be a holiday weekend; otherwise, special funding would be needed. Responses B and D are false because they contradict the information in the paragraph. Responses C and E might be true, but they are not fully supported by the paragraph.
Correct Answer A This paragraph is mainly about the group of Vietnamese Nationals who were paroled into the United States under the Orderly Departure Program with indefinite immigration status. In 2003, a new rule made everyone in this group of Vietnamese Nationals )and others) eligible to apply for permanent resident status. Accordingly, anyone who is not eligible to apply for permanent resident status must not be part of this group of Vietnamese Nationals, which is equivalent to Response A. Response B and D fail to recognize that others, such as nationals of Cambodia, were also eligible to apply for permanent resident status. Response C and E contradicts the information that everyone in the group of Vietnamese Nationals who were paroled into the United States under the Orderly Departure The program was eligible to apply for permanent resident status.
Correct Answer B The last sentence of the paragraph states that none of the illegal workers were from Honduras, which is equivalent to saying none of the employees from Honduras were working illegally. Given that none working illegally, it must be the case that all were working legally. From the information in the paragraph, we know that all of the female employees were working legally and that all of the employees from Honduras was working legally. However, there is insufficient information to determine how many of the female employees were from Honduras. Therefore, Responses C, D, and E cannot be validly concluded. Response A contradicts the information that all of the female employees were working legally.
Answer C It states that all peace officers have the authority to issue certain drug-related citations. Response C is invalid because it say only sector canine Question 21 is a negative lead item, so the correct response is the only response option that CANNOT be validly concluded. The first sentence that states that all state peace officers have the authority to issue certain drug-related citations. Response E is invalid because it says that only sector canine handlers have such authority. The first sentence states that all state peace have authority to issue certain drug-related citations; therefore, at least some who have authority to issue certain drug-related citations must be peace officers, Response C. The last sentence states that all sector canine handlers are state peace officers; therefore, all sector canine handlers have the authority to issue drug-related citations because the handlers are state peace officers, Response B. Moreover, given that all sector canine handlers have authority to issue certain drug-related citations, it must be the case that at least some individuals who have authority to issue drug-related citations are sector canine handlers, Response D. Finally, given that all sector canine handlers have authority to issue certain drug-related citations, it must be the case that no sector canine handlers lack authority to issue certain drug-related citations, Response E.
Correct Answer B This question is a negative lead question, so the correct response is the only response option that CANNOT be validly concluded. According to the third sentence, if H.B.'s departure is voluntary, then the passport is allowed to be returned to H.B. Based on this information, Response B is invalid. Response A and E are both valid and are supported by the information in the third sentence that the passport is allowed to be returned to H.B.'s departure is voluntary. Response C and D are valid and are supported by the information in the second sentence that H.B.'s passport will be returned to the issuing government if H.B. is being "removed".
Correct Answer E The fourth sentence contains the information that all of the unregistered vehicles contained bundles of marijuana. Accordingly, if a vehicle did not contain bundles of marijuana, it could not be one of the unregistered vehicles that contained marijuana. Therefore, it can be deduced that all of the vehicles that did not contain bundles of marijuana were registered. Response A contradicts the information in the fourth sentence. Response B contradicts the information in the last sentence. Response C assumes that some of the registered vehicles also contained bundles of marijuana, but there is insufficient information to make this conclusion. Response D assumes that only unregistered contained bundles of marijuana, but it is insufficient information to make that conclusion.
Correct Answer E This question is a negative lead question, so the correct response is the only response caption that CANNOT be validly concluded. The first sentence in the paragraph states that when officers must physically force entry into the home, the officers are required to ensure that the home is in a secure condition when the officers leave. Response E contradicts this information in saying that Officer Stoler is not required to leave home in a secure condition. Thus, Response E is the correct response. Response B is valid and follows from the information in the fourth sentence. Response A and C are valid and follow the information in the first sentence. response D follows from the information in the third sentence and is valid.
Correct Answer A This question is a negative lead question, so the correct response is the only response option that CANNOT be validly concluded. Response A in invalid because it assumes from the information that all green cards are authorization documents that expire after 10 years that green cards are the ONLY work authorization documents that expire after 10 years. The fourth sentence states that all green card applicants must apply in person; therefore, an application that does not require applicants to apply in person cannot be a green card application, Response C. Response D is valid and is based on the information in the third sentence. The second sentence establishes that green cards have an expiration date, so Response B is valid. The last sentence says that sometimes it takes a year to receive a new green card, So Response D is valid.
