Question :
Historically, famines have generally been followed by periods of rising
wages, because when a labor force is diminished, workers are more
valuable in accordance with the law of supply and demand. The Irish
potato famine of the 1840s is an exception; it resulted in the death or
emigration of half of Ireland's population, but there was no significant
rise in the average wages in Ireland in the following decade.
Which one of the following, if true, would LEAST contribute to an explanation of the exception to the generalization?
A :
Improved medical care reduced the mortality rate among able-bodied
adults in the decade following the famine to below prefamine levels.
B :
Eviction policies of the landowners in Ireland were designed to force
emigration of the elderly and infirm, who could not work, and to retain a
high percentage of able-bodied workers.
C :
Advances in technology increased the efficiency of industry and
agriculture, and so allowed maintenance of economic output with less
demand for labor.
D :
The birth rate increased during the decade following the famine, and
this compensated for much of the loss of population that was due to the
famine.

Question :
The body of anyone infected by virus X will, after a week, produce
antibodies to fight the virus; the antibodies will increase in number
for the next year or so. There is now a test that reliably indigrees how
many antibodies are present in a person's body. If positive, this test
can be used during the first year of infection to estimate to within a month how long that person has had the virus.
Which one of the following conclusions is best supported by the statements above?
A :
Anyone infected by virus X will for a time fail to exhibit infection if tested by the antibody test.
B :
If a person remains infected by virus X indefinitely, there is no limit
to the number of antibodies that can be present in the person's body.
C :
Antibodies are produced only for viral infections that cannot be fought by any other body defenses.
D :
Without the test for antibodies, there is no way of establishing whether a person has virus X.

Question :

from competition by tariffs and other barriers. The program could reduce
the amount of imports and therefore improve the nation's balance of
trade.Which of the following, based on the passage above, is a weakness in this economic strategy?
A :
A protectionist policy will create animosity among other nations.

Fast growth of small industries will create a class of millionaires and increase the inequality of income.

Quotas are more regressive than tariffs.
