NEW QUESTION 54
Alexander Calder was one of the most innovative and original American artists of the twentieth century.
Calder arrived in Paris in 1926 and devoted himself to a innovative project comprised of animals made out of wire, scraps of cloth, wood, cork, labels, bits of scrap metal and pieces of rubber that he called the Circus. During his performances, Calder invented ways to simulate the flight of birds: "These are little bits of white paper, with a hole and slight weight on each one, which flutter down several variously coiled thin steel wires which I jiggle so that they flutter down like doves." The Circus was the laboratory of Calder's work; in it he experimented with new formulas and techniques. By 1930, Calder's Circus had developed into one of the real successes of the Montparnasse art world attracting the attention of such renowned artists as Fernand Leger and Joan Miro. Encouragement from the upper echelons of the Parisian art scene undoubtedly led him to try more serious experiments in wire sculptures. Calder eventually becoming interested in the movement of objects, some of which he motorized. In 1933, Calder completed Object with Red Discs, a sculpture he described as a two-meter rod with a heavy sphere, suspended from the apex of a wire, giving it a cantilever effect. It had five thin aluminum discs projected at right angels from five wires, held in position by a spherical counterweight. With this new creation, the idea of the mobile was born. In creating a work named Constellations in 1943, Calder explored the plastic possibilities of mobiles; he used small pieces of wood, which he shaped and sometimes painted. From this point on, Calder's ambition changed focus. He sought more challenging designs. One of Calder's objectives was to display objects in the air, giving the viewer the experience of finding new skies filled with moving and colored constellations.
Calder accomplished this in Acoustic Ceiling (1954). Calder's humor was evident in such works as Le Bougnat (1959) and The Pagoda (1963). Later, Calder cut fantastic animals from sheet metal, creating La Vache and Elephant (both 1970) and a mobile entitled Nervous Wreck (1976), which represents the red skeleton of a fish. Calder defined volume without mass and incorporated movement and time in art. His inventions, which redefined certain basic principles of sculpture, have established him as the most innovative sculptor of the twentieth century.
It can be inferred from the passage that which of the following statement was true of the Parisian art scene?
- A. Calder's Circus earned more accolades from the upper echelons of the Parisian art scene than any other work in its time.
- B. The work of Alexander Calder was influenced by that of Fernand Leger and Joan Miro.

NEW QUESTION 56
It can be inferred from the passage that Sorenson and Audia's argument differs in part from the economic explanations mentioned in the highlighted text in that Sorenson and Audia claim that
- A. lower failure rates in an industry are not necessarily a result of better performance
- B. access to scarce resources is less important for the success of a new organization than is proximity to consumers
- C. certain geographical regions offer intrinsic advantages that can benefit a particular industry economically
- D. structurally equivalent organizations compete with one another for consumers In the same market
- E. geographic concentration of production is a result of higher founding rates
Answer: E
Explanation:
Explanation
Organizations that produce similar goods tend to concentrate in the same geographic area (geographic concentration of production). Economic explanations of such industrial agglomeration explicitly emphasize better performance, and implicitly emphasize lower failure rates, as the key processes contributing to this geographic concentration. Sometimes Industries benefit economically from situating themselves in particular locations that offer intrinsic advantages such as access to scarce raw materials or proximity to consumers. In other cases, regardless of the particular location, the colocation of structurally equivalent organizations-those that operate in the same markets-may itself yield advantages such as common labor markets and knowledge spillovers.
Sorenson and Audia point out that these explanations Ignore the fact that structurally equivalent organizations also compete with one another for vital resources, and colocation would be expected to increase such competition. Organizational ecology studies support this expectation by showing that organizations apparently compete more intensely within local population boundaries.
Sorenson and Audia propose instead that what maintains geographic concentration is entrepreneurial opportunity, which leads to higher founding rates. Dense local concentrations of structurally equivalent organizations increase the pool of potential entrepreneurs in a region. Beginning entrepreneurs need exposure to existing organizations in the industry to acquire knowledge of the business, ties to scarce resources, and self-confidence. The existing geographic concentration of production constrains access to these resources, so that new founding's tend to reinforce geographic concentration.

- A. Citizens with low annual incomes can afford to pay a relatively higher percentage of their incomes in state sales tax, since their federal income tax is relatively low.
- B. The federal income tax favors citizens with high incomes, whereas the state sales tax favors citizens with low incomes.
- C. The lower a state's sales tax, the more it will tend to redistribute income from the more affluent citizens to the rest of society.
- D. Citizens who fail to earn federally taxable income are also exempt from the state sales tax.
- E. The amount of money citizens spend on products subject to the state tax tends to be equal across income levels.

NEW QUESTION 67
Despite overall physiological bilateral symmetry, many species exhibit
lateralized biases, i.e., preferences for right- or left-oriented behavior. When approaching prey, for example, some predator species favor their right eye; some prey species respond more quickly when their left eye detects a predator. Similar behavioral asymmetries occur in humans. Most notable is right- and lefthandedness; less notable is the tendency to turn right when entering a room.
Paul Farnsworth found that more successful students tended to choose seats near the front, a little to the right. He argued that external factors such as teacher location might have affected this lateral bias. But it is now known that processing differences between the two brain hemispheres can also contribute to behavioral asymmetries.
George Karev found that when presented with a movie theater seating
diagram, right-handed people were more likely than left-handed people to choose a seat on the right, facing front. But he hypothesized that, since the right hemisphere processes visuospatial and emotional information, the people who chose right-side seats did so because that would put the screen in their left visual field, optimizing information flow to the right hemisphere.
Although the right hemisphere is thought to be dominant in processing
emotion, some evidence suggests that the left hemisphere plays a role. The valence model proposes that the left and right hemispheres process positive and negative emotion respectively, while the approach-withdrawal model posits that the left hemisphere processes emotion expressed in approach behavior and the right hemisphere processes emotion expressed in withdrawal behavior.
Victoria Harms and colleagues suggested that since a paper seating plan was used in the theater-seating studies by Karev and others, the exhibited preference might be due simply to handedness: people choose the same side of the paper as their favored hand. Consequently, the Harms research was designed to study choices in an actual movie theater. Also, hoping to distinguish between various explanations, they studied seating choices for comedies (presumed to contain Positive emotional content), dramas (presumed to contain negative emotional content), and documentaries (presumed to have balanced emotional content).
Which of the following statements concerning the valence model and the approach-withdrawal model most accurately reflects information provided in the passage?
- A. Both models suggest that cognitive information is processed by only one brain hemisphere in humans.
- B. The assumptions of both models concerning the processing of visuospatial information are identical with those made by Karev.
- C. Each of the two models explains how emotional information affects the processing of cognitive information in the human brain.
- D. Both models seek primarily to describe how emotion is expressed in behavior.
- E. Each of the two models implicates both hemispheres of the human brain in the processing of emotion.
