8 Drug manufacturer: Although our company requires
that patients who use our new drug also pur-
chase from us nonreusable kits for weekly
blood testing, the expense of those kits is an
entirely necessary one: weekly blood testing
must be done to monitor the drug's potential
side effects, which can be very dangerous.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weak-
ens the manufacturer's argument?
(A) The expense of purchasing the blood-test kits
has not prevented any patients from obtaining
them or the drug.
(B) Medical laboratories can perform the blood test-
ing at a lower cost to patients or their insurers
than the price the manufacturer charges for the
kits.
(C) A one-year supply of the drug and the weekly
blood-test kits can cost patients or their
insurers over $10,000.
(D) Most government and other health insurance
programs will not reimburse patients for the
full cost of both the drug and the blood-test
kits.
(E) Patients who suffer one or more of the danger-
ous side effects of the drug can incur heavy
expenses for the treatment of those side effects.
9 Virginia and her brother William disagree over when
their father was born: Virginia claims it was in 1935
and William claims it was in 1933. The hospital
where their father was born has no records for 1933
but has complete records for 1935—records that do
not include a birth record for their father. Therefore,
he must have been born in 1933.
The argument depends on which of the following
assumptions?
(A) Either Virginia's claim or William's claim is
correct.
(B) The records of the hospital where their father
was born date back to 1933.
(C) Virginia and William know the day and the
month of their father's birth.
(D) There are urgent practical reasons why Virginia
and William must know the date of their
father's birth.
(E) None of their other relatives knows the year in
which Virginia and William's father was born.

23 The town of San Leonardo has recently enacted a law
banning smoking in all restaurants within town limits.
Since many smokers who normally dine in San
Leonardo's restaurants will not want to refrain from
smoking during their meals, San Leonardo's restau-
rants will undoubtedly lose many patrons and con-
siderable income.
Which of the following, if true, most helps to
strengthen the argument above?
(A) Most residents of San Leonardo who eat in res-
taurants are not smokers.
(B) Most smokers who dine in the company of non-
smokers are willing to refrain from smoking
during their meals.
(C) If the law banning smoking in restaurants had
not been enacted, it is likely that a more
stringent law banning smoking in all public
places in San Leonardo would have been
enacted instead.
(D) Prior to the enactment of the law banning
smoking in San Leonardo's restaurant, the
town had a law that required most restaurants
to have nonsmoking sections.
(E) None of the other communities adjacent to San
Leonardo, which have restaurants comparable
to those of San Leonardo, has enacted and
enforces any antismoking legislation.
24. Children whose biological parents both have Tic
Syndrome Z (TSZ), which is characterized by the
involuntary contraction of certain muscles, are about
four times more likely to develop such contractions
than are children whose biological parents do not
have TSZ, It is likely, therefore, that predisposition
to TSZ is an inherited trait.
Which of the following, if true, would most strengthen
the conclusion above?
(A) Children whose parents have TSZ are more
likely to develop TSZ if they are under unusual
stress at school or at home than if they are not
under such stress.
(B) Children whose biological parents do not have
TSZ are more likely to develop TSZ if they are
raised by adoptive parents with TSZ than if
they are raised by their biological parents.
(C) Children whose biological parents have TSZ are
as likely to develop TSZ if they are raised by
adoptive parents who do not have TSZ as if
they are raised by their biological parents.
(D) Children whose biological parents have TSZ and
who develop TSZ usually avoid developing a
severe form of the syndrome if they seek
treatment for TSZ shortly after developing the
first signs of it.
(E) Children with TSZ whose biological parents do
not have TSZ are less likely to have the syn-
drome diagnosed when symptoms first appear
than are children with TSZ whose biological
parents have TSZ.
