indicate the correct answer
In the last third of the nineteenth century a new housing form was quietly being developed. In
1869 the Stuyvesant, considered New York's first apartment house was built on East Eighteenth
Street. The building was financed by the developer Rutherfurd Stuyvesant and designed by Richard
Morris Hunt, the first American architect to graduate from the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris. Each
man had lived in Paris, and each understood the economics and social potential of this Parisian
housing form. But the Stuyvesant was at best a limited success. In spite of Hunt's inviting facade,
the living space was awkwardly arranged. Those who could afford them were quite content to remain
in the more sumptuous, single-family homes, leaving the Stuyvesant to newly married couples and
bachelors.
The fundamental problem with the Stuyvesant and the other early apartment buildings that
quickly followed, in the 1870's and early 1880's was that they were confined to the typical New York
building lot. That lot was a rectangular area 25 feet wide by 100 feet deep-a shape perfectly suited
for a row house. The lot could also accommodate a rectangular tenement, though it could not yield
the square, well-lighted, and logically arranged rooms that great apartment buildings require. But
even with the awkward interior configurations of the early apartment buildings, the idea caught on. It
met the needs of a large and growing population that wanted something better than tenements but
could not afford or did not want row houses.
So while the city's newly emerging social leadership commissioned their mansions, apartment
houses and hotels began to sprout in multiple lots, thus breaking the initial space constraints. In the
closing decades of the nineteenth century, large apartment houses began dotting the developed
portions of New York City, and by the opening decades of the twentieth century, spacious buildings,
such as the Dakota and the Ansonia finally transcended the tight confinement of row house building
lots. From there it was only a small step to building luxury apartment houses on the newly created
Park Avenue, right next to the fashionable Fifth Avenue shopping area.

indicate the correct answer.
Are organically grown foods the best food choices? The advantages claimed for such foods over
conventionally grown and marketed food products are now being debated. Advocates of organic
foods-a term whose meaning varies greatly - frequently proclaim that such products are safer and
more nutritious than others.
The growing interest of consumers in the safety and more nutritional quality of the typical North
American diet is a welcome development. However, much of this interest has been sparked by
sweeping claims that the food supply is unsafe or inadequate in meeting nutritional needs. Although
most of these claims are not supported by scientific evidence, the preponderance of written material
advancing such claims makes it difficult for the general public to separate fact from fiction. As a
result, claims that eating a diet consisting entirely of organically grown foods prevents or cures
disease or provides other benefits to health have become widely publicized and form the basis for
folklore.
Almost daily the public is besieged by claims for “no-aging" diets, new vitamins, and other
wonder foods. There are numerous unsubstantiated reports that natural vitamins are superior to
synthetic ones, that fertilized eggs are nutritionally superior to unfertilized eggs, that untreated
grains are better than fumigated grains and the like.
One thing that most organically grown food products seem to have in common is that
they cost more than conventionally grown foods. But in many cases consumers are misled
if they believe organic foods can maintain health and provide better nutritional quality
than conventionally grown foods. So there IS real cause for concern if consumers,
particularly those with limited incomes, distrust the regular food and buy only expensive
organic foods instead.

D.
products
Question 39: According to the first paragraph, which of the following is true about the term "organic

Question 40: The author implies that there is cause for concern if consumers with limited incomes
buy organic foods instead of conventionally grown foods because _____A. organic foods can be more
expensive but are often no better than conventionally grown foods B, many organic foods are
actually less nutritious than similar conventionally grown foods C. conventionally grown foods are
more readily available than organic foods
D. too many farmers will stop using conventional methods to grow food crops.
Question 41: According to the last paragraph, consumers who believe that organic foods are better
than conventionally grown foods are often _________. A. careless
B. mistaken
C.
thrifty D. wealthy
