Admission Test Section One : Verbal Sample Questions:

1. The Galapagos Islands are in the Pacific Ocean, off the western coast of South America.
They are a rocky, lonely spot, but they are also one of the most unusual places in the world. One reason is
that they are the home of some of the last giant tortoises left on earth. Weighing hundreds of pounds,
these tortoises, or land turtles, wander slowly around the rocks and sand of the islands. Strangely, each of
these islands has its own particular kinds of tortoises. There are seven different kinds of tortoises on the
eight islands, each kind being slightly different from the other. Hundreds of years ago, thousands of
tortoises wandered around these islands. However, all that changed when people started landing there.
When people first arrived in 1535, their ships had no refrigerators. This meant that fresh food was always
a problem for the sailors on board.
The giant tortoises provided a solution to this problem. Ships would anchor off the islands, and crews
would row ashore and seize as many tortoises as they could. Once the animals were aboard the ship, the
sailors would roll the tortoises onto their backs. The tortoises were completely helpless once on their
backs, so they could only lie there until used for soups and stews. Almost 100,000 tortoises were carried
off in this way. The tortoises faced other problems, too. Soon after the first ships, settlers arrived bringing
pigs, goats, donkeys, dogs and cats. All of these animals ruined life for the tortoises.
Donkey and goats ate all the plants that the tortoises usually fed on, while the pigs. Dogs and cats
consumed thousands of baby tortoises each year. Within a few years, it was hard to find any tortoise
eggs-or even any baby tortoises. By the early 1900s, people began to worry that the last of the tortoises
would soon die out. No one, however, seemed to care enough to do anything about the problem. More
and more tortoises disappeared, even though sailors no longer needed them for food. For another fifty
years, this situation continued. Finally, in the 1950s, scientist decided that something must be done. The
first part of their plan was to get rid of as many cats, dogs and other animals as they could.
Next, they tried to make sure that more baby tortoises would be born. To do this, they started looking for
wild tortoise eggs. They gathered the eggs and put them in safe containers. When the eggs hatched, the
scientists raised the tortoises in special pens. Both the eggs and tortoises were numbered so that the
scientists knew exactly which kinds of tortoises they had-and which island they came from. Once the
tortoises were old enough and big enough to take care of themselves, the scientists took them back to
their islands and set them loose. This slow, hard work continues today, and, thanks to it, the number of
tortoises is now increasing every year.
What happens right after the tortoise eggs hatch?

A) The sailors use the tortoises for food.
B) The scientists get rid of cats, dogs, and other animals.
C) The scientists take the tortoises back to their islands.
D) The scientist encouraged the villagers to help.
E) The scientist raised the tortoises in special pens.

2. The striking consistencies among the folk tales of any region, especially the tale plots of independent
origins, like those among a region's languages, are owing to the fact that folklore, like language, is a
collective property-a socialized aspect of the culture subject to stricter and more uniform laws than fields
in which individual creation prevails. Folk tales do contain certain variable elements-for example, the
distribution of points of emphasis and the nomenclature (vocation) and attributes of the dramatic
personae-through which the teller's own personality and inclinations may find expression. Also, the
teller's choice among the repertory of the available genres (for example, fairy tales and anecdotes) and
among the known tales within each genre often reflect the teller's preferred manner of execution, while
the teller narrator typically assumes whichever character most closely resembles the teller. Nevertheless,
whereas in written literature a creative personality is free to shape entirely new roles, including that of
narrator, in storytelling all characters are predetermined by the tale. Attempts at biographical
interpretation almost invariably fail to convince; the tale must come before the teller
The passage as a whole can appropriately be viewed as

A) an explanation as to why tellers of folk tales generally choose to conform to cultural expectations in
how they tell their tales
B) a description of the extent of the consistencies generally observed among a region's folk tales
C) an investigation into certain parallels between language in general and folk tales in particular
D) an examination of the ways in which story tellers imbue well-known folk tales with their own
personalities
E) an argument that folk tales evolve over time as a result of both cultural shifts and individual creativity

4. What does the word patent mean to you? Does it strike you as being something rather remote from your
interests? If it does, stop and think a moment about some of the commonplace things that you use every
day, objects that you take for granted as part of the world around you. The telephone, radio, television, the
automobile, and the thousand and one other things (even the humble safety pin) that enrich our lives
today once existed only as ideas in the minds of men. If it had not been possible to patent their ideas and
thus protect them against copying by others, these inventions might never have been fully developed to
serve mankind. If there were no patent protection there would be little incentive to invent and innovate, for
once the details of an invention became known, hordes of imitators who did not share the inventor's risks
and expenses might well flood the market with their copies of his product and reap much of the benefit of
his efforts.
The technological progress that has made America great would wither rapidly under conditions such as
these. The fundamental principles in the U. S. patent structure came from England. During the glorious
reign of Queen Elizabeth I in England, the expanding technology was furthered by the granting of
exclusive manufacturing and selling privileges to citizens who had invented new processes or tools- a
step that did much to encourage creativity. Later, when critics argued that giving monopoly rights to one
person infringed on the rights of others, an important principle was added to the patent structure: The Lord
Chief Justice of England stated that society had everything to gain and nothing to lose by granting
exclusive privileges to an inventor, because a patent for an invention was granted for something new that
society never had before. Another basic principle was brought into law because certain influential people
in England had managed to obtain monopoly control over such age-old products as salt, and had begun
charging as much as the traffic would bear. The public outcry became so great that the government was
forced to decree that monopoly rights could be awarded only to those who created or introduced
something really unique. These principles are the mainstays of our modern patent system in the United
States. In colonial times patent law was left up to the separate states. The inconsistency, confusion, and
unfairness that resulted clearly indicated the need for a uniform patent law, and the men who drew up the
Constitution incorporated one. George Washington signed the first patent law on April 10,1790, and less
than four months later the first patent was issued to a man named Samuel Hopkins for a chemical process,
an improved method of making potash for use in soapmaking. In 1936 the Patent Office was established
as a separate bureau. From the staff of eight that it maintained during its first year of operation it has
grown into an organization of over 2500 people handling more than 1600 patent applications and granting
over 1000 every week. The Patent Office in Washington, D. C., is the world's largest library of scientific
and technical data, and this treasure trove of information is open for public inspection. In addition to more
than 3 million U. S. patents, it houses more than 7 million foreign patents and thousands of volumes of
technical literature. Abraham Lincoln patented a device to lift steam vessels over river shoals, Mark Twain
developed a self-pasting scrapbook, and millionaire Cornelius Vanderbilt invented a shoe-shine kit. A
patent may be granted for any new and useful process, machine, article of manufacture, or composition of
matter ( a chemical compound or combinations of chemical compounds), or any distinct and new variety;
of plant, including certain mutants and hybrids. The patent system has also helped to boost the wages of
the American worker to an unprecedented level; he can produce more and earn more with the computer,
adding machines, drill press or lathe. Patented inventions also help keep prices down by increasing
manufacturing efficiency and by stimulating the competition that is the foundation of our free enterprise
system. The decades of history have disclosed little need for modification of the patent structure. Our
patent laws, like the Constitution from which they grew, have stood the test of time well. They encouraged
the creative processes, brought untold benefits to society as a whole, and enabled American technology
to outstrip that of the rest of the civilized world.
