  12. Although most species of nondomestic mammals in Australia are marsupials, over 100 species- including seals, bats, and mice-are not marsupials but placentals. It is clear, however, that these placentals are not native to this island continent: all nonhuman placentals except the dingo, a dog introduced by the first humans that settled Australia, are animals whose ancestors could swim tong distances, fly, or float on driftwood.

  The conclusion above is properly drawn4 if which one of the following is assumed?

  (A) Some marsupials now found in Australia might not be native to that continent, but rather might have been introduced to Australia by some other means.

  (B) Humans who settled Australia probably introduced many of the placental mammal species now present on that Continent.

  (C) The only Australian placentals that could be native to Australia would be animals whose ancestors could not have reached Australia from elsewhere.

  (E) Seals, bats, and mice are typically found only in areas where there are no native marsupials.

  14. In 1980 there was growing concern that the protective ozone8 layer over the Antarctic might be decreasing and thereby9 allowing so much harmful ultraviolet radiation to reach the Earth that polar marine10 life would be damaged. Some government officials dismissed these concerns, since statistics indicated that global atmospheric11 ozone levels remained constant.

  The relevance12 of the evidence cited by the government officials in support of their position would be most seriously undermined if it were true that

  (A) most species of plant and animal life flourish in warm climates rather than in the polar regions

  (B) decreases in the amount of atmospheric Ozone over the Antarctic ice cap tend to be seasonal13 rather than constant

  (C) decreases in the amount of atmospheric ozone were of little concern before l980.

  (D) quantities of atmospheric ozone shifted away from the polar caps, correspondingly increasing ozone levels in other regions

  (E) even where the amount of atmospheric ozone is normal, some ultraviolet light reaches the Earth's surface

  15. Goodbody, Inc., is in the process of finding tenants14 for its newly completed Parrot Quay15 commercial development, which will make available hundreds of thousands of square feet of new office space on what was formerly16 derelict property outside the financial center of the city. Surprisingly enough, the coming recession though it will hurt most of the city's businesses, should help Goodbody to find tenants.

  Which one of the following, if true, does most to help resolve the apparent paradox17

  (A) Businesses forced to economize18 by the recession will want to take advantage of the lower rents available outside the financial center.

  (B) Public transportation links the financial center with the area around Parrot Quay.

  (C) The area in which the Parrot Quay development is located became derelict after the heavy industry that used to be there closed down in a previous recession.

  (D) Many of Goodbody's other properties are in financial center and will become vacant if the recession is severe enough to force Goodbody's tenants out of business.

  (E) The recession is likely to have the most severe effect not on service industries, which require a lot of office space, but on manufacturers
