1) Answer: D
2) Answer: C
3) Answer: B
4) Answer: C
5) Answer: D
6) Answer: A
Argument I gives the reason how the Amazon’s male white bellbird is said to have the loudest recorded call. The bellbird’s call can reach 125 decibels, and more than 9 decibels higher than the loudest recorded call of the screaming piha, which held the previous record of being the world’s loudest bird. Argument 2 tells about female bird. So, only argument I is strong.
Directions (7-10) :
7) Answer: E
21 + 15 = 36 (Rule I)
36 * 2 = 72 (Rule V)
72 * 2 = 144 (Rule V)
144 / 12 = 12 (Rule III)
8) Answer: A
37 + 10 = 47 (Rule IV)
47 + 23 = 70 (Rule I)
R1 = 70
49 – 18 = 31 (Rule II)
31 + 12 = 43 (Rule IV)
70 – 43 = 27
9) Answer: D
18 * 8 = 144 (Rule V)
144 / 12 = 12 (Rule III)
R1 = x = 12
169 / 13 = 13 (Rule III)
13 + 144 = 157 (Rule IV)
10) Answer: D
35 + 19 = 54 (Rule I)
81 – 54 = 27 (Rule II)
405 / 27 = 15 (Rule III)
15 + 27 = 42 (Rule I)
