It ispossible for students to obtain advanced degrees in
Englishwhile knowing little or nothing about traditional
scholarlymethods. The consequences of this neglect of
traditionalscholarship are particularly unfortunate for the
(5) study of women writers. If the canon—the list of authors
whose worksare most widely taught—isever to include
more women,scholars must be well trained in historical
scholarshipand textual editing. Scholars who do not know
how to readearly manuscripts, locate rare books, establish
(10)a sequence of editions, and so on are bereft ofcrucial tools
for revisingthe canon.

To address such concerns, an experimentalversion of
thetraditional scholarly methods course was designed to
raisestudents' consciousness about the usefulness of
(15)traditional learning for any modern critic ortheorist. To
minimize theartificial aspects of the conventional course,
the usualprocedure of assigning a large number of small
problemsdrawn from the entire range of historical periods
wasabandoned, though this procedure has the obvious
(20)advantage of at least superficially familiarizingstudents
with a widerange of reference sources. Instead students
were engagedin a collective effort to do original work on
a neglectedeighteenth-century writer, Elizabeth Griffith, to
give them anauthentic experience of literary scholarship
(25)and to inspire them to take responsibility for thequality of
their ownwork.

Griffith's work presented anumber of advantages for
thisparticular pedagogical purpose. First, the body of
extantscholarship on Griffith was so tiny that it could all
(30)be read in a day; thus students spent little time andeffort
masteringthe literature and had a clear field for their own
discoveries.Griffith's play The Platonic Wife exists in three
versions,enough to provide illustrations of editorial issues
but not toomany for beginning students to manage. In addi-
(35)tion, because Griffith was successful in theeighteenth cen-
tury, as hercontinued productivity and favorable reviews
demonstrate,her exclusion from the canon and virtual dis-
appearancefrom literary history also helped raise issues
concerningthe current canon.
(40)
The range of Griffith's workmeant that each student
could becomethe world's leading authority on a particular
Griffithtext. For example, a student studying Griffith's
Wife in the Right obtained afirst edition of the play and
studied itfor some weeks. This student was suitably
(45)shocked and outraged to find its title transformedinto A
Wife in the Night in Watt's Bibliotheca Britannica. Such
experiences,inevitable and common in working on a writer

to whom solittle attention has been paid, serve to vaccinate
the student ---I hope for a lifetime—againstcredulous use
of referencesources.

17.Theauthor of the passage is primarily concerned with
(A) revealing a commonly ignored deficiency
(B) proposing a return totraditional terminology
(C) describing an attempt tocorrect a shortcoming
(D) assessing the success of anew pedagogical
approach
(E) predicting a change in atraditional teaching
strategy

18.It can be inferred that the author of the passage expects
that the experience of thestudent mentioned as having
studied Wife in the Right would have which of the fol-
lowing effects?
(A) It would lead the student todisregard information
found in the Bibliotheca Britannica.
(B) It would teach the student to question the accuracy
of certain kinds of informationsources when
studying neglected authors.
(C) It would teach the student to avoid the use of refer-
ence sources in studyingneglected authors.
(D) It would help the student tounderstand the impor-
tance of first editions inestablishing the author-
ship of plays.
(E) It would enhance thestudent's appreciation of the
works of authors not included inthe canon.

19.The author of the passage suggests that which of the
following isa disadvantage of the strategy employed in
the experimental scholarlymethods course?
(A) Students were not given anopportunity to study
women writers outside the canon.
(B) Students' original work wouldnot be appreciated
by recognized scholars.
(C) Little scholarly work hasbeen done on the work
of Elizabeth Griffith.
(D) Most of the students in thecourse had had little
opportunityto study eighteenth-century literature.
(E) Students were not given anopportunity to encoun-
ter certain sources ofinformation that could

prove useful in their future studies.

20.Which of the following best states the "particular
pedagogical purpose"mentioned in line 28?
(A) To assist scholars inrevising the canon of authors
(B) To minimize the trivialaspects of the traditional
scholarly methods course
(C) To provide students withinformation about
Griffith's work
(D) To encourage scholarly rigorin students' own
research
(E) To reestablish Griffith'sreputation as an author

21.Which of the following best describes thefunction of

the last paragraph in relation to the passageas a

whole?
(A) It summarizes the benefits that students can derive
from theexperimental scholarly methods course.

(B) It provides additionalreasons why Griffith's work
raises issues having to do withthe canon of
authors.
(C) It provides an illustrationof the immediate nature
of the experiences students canderive from the
experimental scholarly methodscourse.
(D) It contrasts the experienceof a student in the
experimentalscholarly methods course with the
experience of a student in thetraditional course
(E) It provides information thatemphasizes the suita-
bility of Griffith's work forinclusion in the
canon of authors.

22.It can be inferred that which of the following is most
likely to be among the"issues" mentioned in line 38?
(A) Why has the work of Griffith,a woman writer
who was popular in her owncentury, been
excluded from the canon?
(B) In what ways did Griffith'swork reflect the polit-
ical climate of the eighteenthcentury?
(C) How was Griffith's workreceived by literary
critics during the eighteenthcentury?
(D) How did the error in thetitle of Griffith's play
come to be made?
(E) How did critical reception ofGriffith's work
affect the quantity and qualityof that work?

23.It can be inferred that the author of the passage con-
siders traditional scholarlymethods courses to be
(A) irrelevant to the work ofmost students
(B) inconsequential because oftheir narrow focus
(C) unconcerned about theaccuracy of reference
sources
(D) too superficial to establishimportant facts about
authors
(E) too wide-ranging to approximate genuine scholarly
activity

Experiments show that insects can function aspollinators
of cycads,rare, palmlike tropical plants. Furthermore, cycads
removed fromtheir native habitats—andtherefore from
insectsnative to those habitats—areusually infertile. Nev-
(5) ertheless, anecdotal reports of wind pollination incycads
cannot beignored. The structure of cycads male cones is
quiteconsistent with the wind dispersal of pollen, clouds
of which arereleased from some of the larger cones. The
male cone ofCycas circinalis, for example, shedsalmost
(10)100 cubic centimeters of pollen, most of which isprobably

dispersed bywind. Still, many male cycad cones are com-
parativelysmall and thus produce far less pollen. Further-
more, thestructure of most female cycad cones seems incon-
sistent withdirect pollination by wind. Only in the Cycas
(15)genus are the females' ovules accessible to airbornepollen,

since onlyin this genus are the ovules surrounded by a
looseaggregation of megasporophylls rather than by a tight
cone.

24.Accordingto the passage, the size of a male cycad
cone directly influences which ofthe following?
(A) The arrangement of the malecone's structural
elements
(B) The mechanism by which pollenis released from
the male cone.
(C) The degree to which theovules of female cycads
are accessible to airborne pollen
(D) The male cone's attractivenessto potential insect
pollinators
(E) The amount of pollen producedby the male cone

25.The passage suggests that which of the following is
true of the structure of cycadcones?
(A) The structure of cycad conesprovides conclusive
evidence in favor of oneparticular explanation
of cycad pollination.
(B) The structure of cycad conesprovides evidence
concerning what triggers thefirst step in the
pollination process.
(C) An irresolvable discrepancyexists between what
thestructure of most male cycad cones suggests
about cycadpollination and what the structure of

most female cones suggests aboutthat process.
(D) The structure of male cycadcones rules out a
possiblemechanism for cycad pollination that is
suggested bythe structure of most female cycad
cones.

(E) The structure of male cycadcones is consistent
with a certain means of cycadpollination, but
that means is inconsistent withthe structure of
most female cycad cones.

26.The evidence in favor of insect pollination of cycads
presented in lines 2-4 would bemore convincing if
which of the following were alsotrue?
(A) Only a small variety of cycadspecies can be
successfully transplanted.
(B) Cycads can sometimes bepollinated by means
other than wind or insects.
(C) Insects indigenous to regionsto which cycads are
transplanted sometimes feed oncycads.
(D) Winds in the areas to whichcycads are usually
transplanted are similar to windsin cycads'
native habitats.
(E) The transplantation of cycadsfrom one region to
another usually involves theaccidental removal
and introduction of insects aswell.

27.The passage suggests that which of the following is
true of scientific investigationsof cycad pollination?
(A) They have not yet producedany systematic evi-
dence of wind pollination incycads.
(B) They have so far confirmedanecdotal reports con-
cerning the wind pollination ofcycads.
(C) They have, until recently,produced little evidence
in favor of insect pollination incycads.
(D) They have primarily been carried out using cycads
transplanted from their nativehabitats.
(E) They have usuallyconcentrated on describing the
physicalcharacteristics of the cycad reproductive
system.

(Thispassage is adapted from an article published in 1981.)

The term "remote sensing" refersto the techniques of
measurementand interpretation of phenomena from a dis-
tance. Prior to the mid-1960'sthe interpretation of film
images was the primary means forremote sensing of the
(5)Earth's geologic features. With the development of the
optomechanicalscanner, scientists began to construct digital
multispectralimages using data beyond the sensitivity range
of visiblelight photography. These images are constructed
bymechanically aligning pictorial representations of such

(10)phenomena as the reflection of light waves outsidethe vis-

ible spectrum, the refraction of radio waves, and the daily
changes intemperature in areas on the Earth's surface.
Digitalmultispectral imaging has now become the basic
tool ingeologic remotesensing from satellites.
(15)The advantage of digital over photographic imaging is
evident: theresulting numerical data are precisely known,
and digitaldata are not subject to the vagaries of difficult-
to-controlchemical processing. With digital processing, it is
possible tocombine a large number of spectral images. The
(20)acquisitionof the first multispectral digital data set from
the multispectral scanner (MSS) aboard the satellite
Landsat in1972 consequently attracted the attention of the
entiregeologic community. Landsat MSS data are now
beingapplied toa variety of geologic problems that are
(25)difficultto solve by conventional methods alone. These
includespecific problems in mineral and energy resource
explorationand the charting of glaciers and shallow seas.

A more fundamentalapplication of remote sensing is to
augmentconventional methods for geologic mapping of
(30)largeareas. Regional maps present compositional, struc-
tural, and chronological information for reconstructing
geologicevolution. Such reconstructions have important
practicalapplications because the conditions under which
rock unitsand other structural features are formed influence

(35)the occurrence of ore and petroleum deposits andaffect the
thicknessand integrity of the geologic media in which the
deposits arefound.

Geologic maps incorporate a large, varied body of spe-
cific fieldand laboratory measurements, but the maps must
(40)beinterpretative because field measurements are always
limited byrock exposure, accessibility and labor resources.
Withremote-sensing techniques it is possible to obtain
muchgeologic information more efficiently than it can be
obtained onthe ground. These techniques also facilitate
(45)overall interpretation. Since detailed geologicmapping is
generally conducted in small areas, the continuity of
regionalfeatures that have intermittent and variable expres-
sions isoften not recognized, but in the comprehensive
views ofLandsat imagesthese continuities are apparent.
(50)However,some critical information cannot be obtained
through remote sensing, and several characteristics of the
Landsat MSSimpose limitations on the acquisition of diag-
nostic data.Some of these limitations can be overcome by
designingsatellite systemsspecifically for geologic pur-
(55)poses; but, to be most effective, remote-sensing datamust
still becombined with data from field surveys and labora-
tory tests, the techniques ofthe earlier twentieth century.

17.Byusing the word "interpretative"inline 40, the
author is indicating which of thefollowing?
(A) Some maps are based more ondata from aerial
photography than on data fromfield operations.
(B) Some maps are based almostexclusively on labor-
atory measurements.
(C) Some maps are based onincomplete data from
field observations.
(D) Some maps show only largegeologic features.
(E) Some maps can bethree-dimensional.

18.With which of the following statements about geologic
mapping would the author be mostlikely to agree?
(A) Geologic mapping is basicallyan art and not a
science.
(B) Geologic mapping has notchanged significantly
since the early 1960's.
(C) Geologic mapping will havelimited practical
applications until remote-sensingsystems are
perfected.
(D) A developmental milestone ingeologic mapping
was reached in 1972.
(E) Without the present varietyof remote-sensing
techniques, geologic mappingcould not be done.

19.According to the passage, measurements of which of
the following can be provided bythe optomechanical
scanner but not by visible-lightphotography?
(A) The amount of visible lightreflected from oceans
(B) The density of foliage inremote areas on the
Earth's surface
(C) Daily temperature changes ofareas on the Earth's
surface.
(D) The degree of radioactivityemitted by exposed
rocks on the Earth's surface.
(E) Atmospheric conditions overlarge landmasses

20.It can be inferred from the passage that a major disad-
vantage of photographic imagingin geologic mapping
is that such photography
(A) cannot be used at night
(B) cannot focus on the detailsof a geologic area
(C) must be chemically processed
(D) is always enhanced by digitalreconstruction
(E) cannot reflect changes overextended periods of time

21.It can be inferred from the passage that Landsat images
differ from conventional geologicmaps in that Landsat
images
(A) reveal the exact size ofpetroleum deposits and ore
deposits
(B) indicate the continuity offeatures that might not
otherwise be interpreted ascontinuous
(C) predict the movements ofglaciers
(D) provide highly accurate dataabout the occurrence
of mineral deposits
(E) reveal the integrity of themedia in which petro-
leum deposits and ore depositsare found

22.The passage provides information about each of the
following topics EXCEPT
(A) the principal method ofgeologic remote sensing
prior to the mid-1960's
(B) some of the phenomenameasured by digital multi-
spectral images in remote sensing
(C) some of the practical uses ofregional geologic
maps
(D) the kinds of problems thatare difficult to solve
solely through conventionalmethods of geologic
mapping
(E) the specific limitations ofthe Landsat multi-
spectral scanner

23.The passage suggests which of the following about the
"conventional methods"mentioned in line 29?
(A) They consist primarily offield surveys and
laboratory measurements.
(B) They are not useful inproviding information
necessary for reconstructinggeologic evolution
(C) They have rarely been used bygeologists since
1972.
(D) They are used primarily togather compositional
information about geologicfeatures.
(E) They are limited primarilybecause of difficulties
involved in interpreting filmimages.

Although the development of newinfrastructure (such
public facilities as powerplants, schools, and bridges ) is
usuallydetermined by governmental planning, sometimes
thisdevelopment can be planned more flexibly and realis-
(5)tically by private investors who anticipate profit from the
collection of user fees. Such profits can contribute to the
financing ofmore infrastructure if demand proves great
enough,whereas the reluctance of developers to invest in
suchprojects can signal that additional infrastructure is not
(10)needed.During the economic boom of the 1980's, for
example, thestate of Virginia authorized private developers
to build a$300 million toll road. These developers obtained
the neededright-of- way from property owners, but by 1993
they stillhad not raised the necessary financing. The unwill-
(15)ingness of investors to finance this project does notnegate
theviability of privately financed roads; rather, it illustrates
a virtue ofprivate financing. If a road appears unlikely to
attractenough future traffic to pay for the road, then it
should not be built.

24.The primary purpose of thepassage is to
(A) build a case for increasingthe development of
new infrastructure
(B) advocate an alternative togovernment financing of
infrastructure
(C) explain the failure of aprivately financed venture
(D) suggest the types ofinfrastructure most appro-
priate for private financing
(E) argue against governmentrestrictions on devel-
oping new infrastructure

25.The passage implies that the “governmental planning ”
mentioned in line 3 may lead towhich of the following
problems?
(A) Improper use of profitsderived from user fees
(B) Unduly slow development ofnecessary new
infrastructure
(C) Unrealistic decisions aboutdeveloping new
infrastructure
(D) Incorrect predictions aboutprofits to be gained
from user fees
(E) Obstruction of privatefinancing for the devel-
opment of new infrastructure

26.According to the passage, which of the following is
true of the toll road mentionedin line 12?
(A) After it was built, itattracted too little traffic to
pay for its construction.
(B) It was partially financed bythe state of Virginia.
(C) Its development wasauthorized during an eco-
nomic boom.
(D) Its construction wascontroversial among local
residents.
(E) Its developers were discouragedby governmental
restrictions on acquiring thenecessary land.

27.The passage suggests that which of the following
would occur if a privatelyfinanced bridge that proved
to be profitable failed after anumber of years to meet
the demands of traffic?
(A) Private developers whofinanced the bridge would
rely on governmental authoritiesto develop new
infrastructure.
(B) User fees would be increasedso that usage would
become more costly.
(C) Governmental authoritieswould be reluctant to
rely on private contractors todevelop a new
bridge.
(D) The success of the projectwould be jeopardized
by public dissatisfaction withthe project's
adequacy.
