18. As long as the little owls remain in the nest, they’re completely dependent on their parents for food. The problem is that the small rodents that they eat can’t be split up.

In many bird species, the oldest would simply outcompete the youngest, but barn owls are different. __________ Younger owlets groomed older ones more often than older ones groomed the youngsters.

Question 23 is based on the following passage.    The stars awaken a certain reverence, because though always present, they are inaccessible; but all natural objects make a kindred impression, when the mind is open to their influence. Nature never wears a mean appearance. Neither does the wisest man extort her secret, and lose his curiosity by finding out all her perfection. Nature never became a toy to a wise spirit. The flowers, the animals, the mountains, reflected the wisdom of his best hour, as much as they had delighted the simplicity of his childhood.    When we speak of nature in this manner, we have a distinct but most poetical sense in the mind. We mean the integrity of impression made by manifold natural objects. It is this which distinguishes the stick of timber of the wood-cutter, from the tree of the poet. The charming landscape which I saw this morning, is indubitably made up of some twenty or thirty farms. Miller owns this field, Locke that, and Manning the woodland beyond. But none of them owns the landscape. There is a property in the horizon which no man has but he whose eye can integrate all the parts, that is, the poet. This is the best part of these men’s farms, yet to this their warranty-deeds give no title.  23. It can be inferred from the passage that the author believes that (A) property is the most important thing a man can own. (B) landscapes should be controlled by the government to avoid property disputes among landowners. (C) natural ownership of land takes precedence over legal ownership. (D) ownership is unnecessary when one can enjoy the beauty of the land. (E) property owners have an obligation to preserve the natural beauty of their land.

24. Select the sentence that restates the premise of the author’s argument. (A) A prince can trust only his subjects after he takes over. (B) A new ruler has very little support that he can rely upon. (C) Supportive friends are the key to maintaining power. (D) Inhabitants rarely change their minds about the leader they want. (E) Once a ruler is in power, it is easy to maintain that role.

25. The passage implies that a new prince’s rule is (A) natural. (B) inherited. (C) impossible. (D) unstable. (E) unhappy.

Question 26 is based on the following passage.    Of the worship of Diana at Nemi some leading features can still be made out. From the votive offerings which have been found on the site, it appears that she was conceived of especially as a huntress, and further as blessing men and women with offspring, and granting expectant mothers an easy delivery. Again, fire seems to have played a foremost part in her ritual. For during her annual festival, held on the thirteenth of August, at the hottest time of the year, her grove shone with a multitude of torches, whose ruddy glare was reflected by the lake; and throughout the length and breadth of Italy the day was kept with holy rites at every domestic hearth. Bronze statuettes found in her precinct represent the goddess herself holding a torch in her raised right hand; and women whose prayers had been heard by her came crowned with wreaths and bearing lighted torches to the sanctuary in fulfilment of their vows. Some one unknown dedicated a perpetually burning lamp in a little shrine at Nemi for the safety of the Emperor Claudius and his family. The terra-cotta lamps which have been discovered in the grove may perhaps have served a like purpose for humbler persons. If so, the analogy of the custom to the Catholic practice of dedicating holy candles in churches would be obvious. Further, the title of Vesta borne by Diana at Nemi points clearly to the maintenance of a perpetual holy fire in her sanctuary. A large circular basement at the north-east corner of the temple, raised on three steps and bearing traces of a mosaic pavement, probably supported a round temple of Diana in her character of Vesta, like the round temple of Vesta in the Roman Forum. Here the sacred fire would seem to have been tended by Vestal Virgins, for the head of a Vestal in terra-cotta was found on the spot, and the worship of a perpetual fire, cared for by holy maidens, appears to have been common in Latium from the earliest to the latest times. Further, at the annual festival of the goddess, hunting dogs were crowned and wild beasts were not molested; young people went through a purificatory ceremony in her honour; wine was brought forth, and the feast consisted of a kid cakes served piping hot on plates of leaves, and apples still hanging in clusters on the boughs.  26 What is the likely reason for perpetually burning lamps found at the shrine? (A) Warding off animals (B) Ensuring safety for specific people (C) Purifying young people (D) Representing Vestal Virgins (E) Praying for fertility
