Free College Board SAT-CRITICAL READING Real Questions (page: 2)

Given the seeming ______ of alternatives to fossil fuels, it seems rather ______ to continue on our current path without fully directing our collective resources to develop independence from questionable suppliers.

  1. gluttony. . .reticent
  2. plethora. . .pernicious
  3. readiness. . .curious
  4. availability. . .understandable
  5. capacity. . .forgiving

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

A quick look at the first blank options doesn't yield much reduction of choices. In fact, any of them might be correct. Remembering that the tone of the sentence is bent toward the negative, we're looking for a fit for the second blank that is negative. Only Choice B, "pernicious, " qualifies as it means harmful.



Given the ______ nature of movie stars, I suppose one should not question the divorce rate among them, but question whether it is a character flaw developed in the business, or a trait necessary to enter the business.

  1. grandiose
  2. capricious
  3. ideological
  4. indulgent
  5. pernicious

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Choice D, "indulgent, " seems plausible, but if movie stars were truly indulgent, they wouldn't mind the indiscretions of their mate. Choice B, "capricious, " or unpredictable and impulsive best describes the character flaw causing this problem.



Notwithstanding much educated ______, even as we speak, there is no ______ relationship between current levels of hydrocarbon output and ozone deterioration.

  1. speculation. . .tenuous
  2. conjecture. . .proven
  3. evidence. . .speculative
  4. argument. . .rational
  5. confusion. . .systematic

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Choices C, D, and E, "evidence, " "argument, " and "confusion, " respectively, disqualify them as choices based on the first word choice. The qualifier as much educated doesn't match with argument or confusion.
Educated folk tend to present, not argue; and if it was a much educated prospective, there likely wouldn't be confusion. Considering much educated "evidence" would pretty much settle the discussion if it is truly evidence. This leaves only Choices A and B. Choice A has "tenuous" as a second word, and "weak" doesn't fit the sentence. Choice B, "conjecture" and "proven, " is the best choice.



Jennifer liked third period best as her English professor was a most ______ fellow; so much so that there was often no time left for student input, which suited her fine.

  1. garrulous
  2. ingenious
  3. superlative
  4. felicitous
  5. facetious

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Choices A and E are the only real qualifiers as to there being no time left for student input. Choice E, "facetious, " means jocular, and the good professor would likely be in jeopardy of losing his job were this the case. Choice A, "garrulous" or given to prosy rambling, fits the more typical English professor.



The paparazzi received many sizeable offers for the pictures of Ferggie in the ______ act of topless bathing in Capri.

  1. embarrassing
  2. ignoble
  3. hypocritical
  4. degenerative
  5. hedonistic

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Choice A, "embarrassing, " certainly qualifies but may be too simplistic for an SAT question. Be guarded against picking the first factually correct choice. Choice C, "hypocritical, " might qualify if we were told she typically spoke against such acts, but we aren't. Choice D, "degenerative, " suggests a degraded act or a sexual perversion, and topless bathing generally would not meet such criteria, particularly in an area where such practice was commonplace. Choice E, "hedonistic, " seems to fit with the exception that a singular incident does not a lifestyle devoted to pleasure make. Choice B, "ignoble, " fits nicely, particularly since she represented the royal family.
