Answer to Question 61

Choice C is best. In A and B, the plural pronouns their and they do not agree

with the singular noun bank. B, like

D and E, illogically shifts from the plural customers and funds to the

singular check, as if the customers were

jointly depositing only one check. In D, requires a bank that it should is

ungrammatical; requires that a bank is

the appropriate idiom. In E, the use of the passive construction is to be

delayed is less informative than the

active voice because the passive does not explicitly identify the bank as the

agent responsible for the delay.

Answer to Question 62

D, the best choice, describes the warning signs in parallel phrases. Despite

surface appearances, the nouns changes

and variations are parallel with tilting, but the verbal forms changing and

varying in A, B, and C are not: tilting, one

of the deformations of the Earth's crust, is used here as a noun that is

parallel to fluctuations, whereas changing and

varying are used as verbs indicating some action undertaken. Moreover, these

verbs are used incorrectly because the

sentence mentions no subject that is performing these actions. B and E

illogically state that it is not the strain but the

measurements that portend danger, and among in E wrongly suggests a

comparison of different electrical properties

rather than of different behaviors of the same properties.

Answer to Question 63

Choice A, which is both idiomatic and concise, is best. In choice B, to

contract is wrong because the phrase are in

danger must be followed by of, not by an infinitive. The phrase have a danger

is unidiomatic in C. In D, the phrase

by contraction trypanosomiasis requires of after contraction; even if this

correction were made, though, the passive

construction in D would be unnecessarily wordy and also imprecise, because it

is the disease more than the act of

contracting it that poses the danger. In E, have a danger is again

unidiomatic, and the to that clause following the

phrase is, within the structure of the sentence, ungrammatical and

awkward.

Answer to Question 64

In this sentence, the first noun of the main clause grammatically identifies

what is being compared with a funded

pens ion system; to be logical, the comparison must be made between

comparable things. Only E, the best choice,

compares one kind of system of providing for retirees, the funded pension

system, with another such system. Social

Security. Choices A, C, and D all illogically compare the pension system with

the approach taken by Social Security

itself. In B, the comparison of pension system with foundation is similarly

flawed.

Answer to Question 65

When consider means "regard as," as it does in this sentence, its object

should be followed immediately by the

phrase that identifies or describes that object. Thus, to be in A, as in B,

and as being in C produce unidiomatic

constructions in the context of the sentence. Also, although (/and whether

can be used interchangeably after some

verbs, question if, which appears in A and B, is unidiomatic, and they in B

is unnecessary. E also contains the

unnecessary they, and it uses the ungrammatical construction consider...

facilities are. Grammatically and idiomatically, sound D is the best choice.
