Techniques, which are now being developed, to deacidify books will probably be applied only to books with historical significance. If all the statements above are true, which one of the following must be true?
a) If a book was published in the past 150 years, and is historically insignificant, it will probably deteriorate completely.
b) Almost all of the books published in the past 150 years will gradually destroy themselves.
c) Almost all of the books that gradually deteriorate are made of acidic paper.
d) If a book is of historical significance and was printed before 150 years ago, it will be deacidified.
e) Books published on acidic paper in 1900 should now all be at about the same state of deterioration.

2. Testifying before the Senate committee investigating charges that cigarette manufacturers had manipulated nicotine levels in cigarettes in order to addict consumers to their products, tobacco executives argued that cigarette smoking is not addictive.

4. "For the most part," said Doctor Brown, "the people in my community are taking better care of their health. I base this assertion on the fact that an increasing number of people are making regular trips to my office." The conclusion of Dr. Brown depends on which of the following assumptions?

b) This community is known for having unhealthy residents.
c) The remarkable medical skills of Dr. Brown are in part responsible for the increase in ealth awareness.

5. Premiums for automobile accident insurance are often higher for red cars than for cars of other colors. To justify these higher charges, insurance companies claim that, overall, a greater percentage of red cars are involved in accidents than are cars of any other colors. If this claim is true, then lives could undoubtedly be saved by banning red cars from the roads altogether. The reasoning in the argument is flawed because the argument:
a) Accepts without question that insurance companies have the right to charge higher premiums for higher risk clients.
b) Fails to consider whether red cars cost the same to repair as cars of other colors.
c) Ignores the possibility that drivers who drive recklessly have a preference for red cars.
d) Does not specify precisely what percentage of red cars are involved in accidents.
e) Makes an unsupported assumption that every automobile accident results in some loss of life.

b) Children who are scolded severely tend to misbehave ...........more often than other children. Hence if a child is not scolded severely that child is less likely to misbehave.
c) This software program helps increase the work efficiency of its users. As a result, these
users have more free time for other activities.
d) During warm weather my dog suffers from fleas more so than during cooler weather. Therefore, fleas must thrive in a warm environment.
