Scientist: A controversy in paleontology centers on the question of whether prehistoric human ancestors began to develop sophisticated tools before or after they came to stand upright. I argue that they stood upright first, simply because advanced toolmaking requires free use of hands, and standing upright makes this possible.Which one of the following statements, if true, most weakens the scientist's argument?A) Many animals that do not stand upright have learned to make basic tools.B) Advanced hunting weapons have been discovered among the artifacts belonging to prehistoric human ancestors who did not stand upright.C) Many prehistoric human ancestors who stood upright had no sophisticated tools.D) Those prehistoric human ancestors who first came to stand upright had no more dexterity with their hands than did those who did not stand upright.E) Many of the earliest sophisticated tools did not require their users to be able to stand upright.
The New Deal in America began in 1933 and included widespread bank reforms, unprecedented government infrastructure spending, and unparalleled expansion in the size of government. Some political commentators and economic historians contend that President Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal singlehandedly propelled the United States out of the Great Depression and into decades of uninterrupted prosperity. To support this claim, these economists note that during the years following 1933, GDP grew, unemployment shrunk, and optimism increased.Which of the following statements, if true, would most weaken the above argument?A) The considerable debt burden that the government assumed to fund the New Deal sparked fear in the minds of some economists, investors, and businessmen. B) The considerable government expenditures and massive labor requirements engendered by America's entry into World War II in late 1941 helped employ Americans and grow GDP. C) On average, GDP per capita fell and unemployment rose in many foreign countries during the years after President Roosevelt announced his New Deal. D) During 1939, the U.S. economy contracted sharply, unemployment jumped 5%, and America's optimism fell. E) U.S. GDP during the mid 1930s stood at levels much lower than 30 years later.

Scientist: My research indicates that children who engage in impulsive behavior similar to adult thrill-seeking behavior are twice as likely as other children to have a gene variant that increases sensitivity to dopamine. From this, I conclude that there is a causal relationship between this gene variant and an inclination toward thrill-seeking behavior.
Which one of the following, if true, most calls into question the scientist's argument?
A) Many impulsive adults are not unusually sensitive to dopamine.
B) It is not possible to reliably distinguish impulsive behavior from other behavior.
C) Children are often described by adults as engaging in thrill-seeking behvaior simply because they act impulsively.
D) Many people exhibit behavioral tendencies as adults that they did not exhibit as children.
E) The gene variant studied by the scientist is correlated with other types of behavior in addition to thrill-seeking behavior.
actual XAT 11 pattern...a very good replication of the XAT papers...overall a gud one to attempt
1326 TIME
a lil easier than XAT 12..but certainly attemptable..thou the level of XAT wld b higher than this
1327 TIME
lot more difficult than 1326..and i wld say slighlty difficult than XAT 12 and very much what u can expect in XAT 13...for the first time i was happy with TIME RCs questn setting...
