Read the passage to answer question 4–9

No actual black hole has yet been located or studied, but the concept has provided endless imaginative fodder for science fiction writers and endless theoretical fodder for physicists and astrophysicists.

Black holes are one of the more exotic theoretical manifestations of general relativity. The standard model for the formation of a black hole involves the collapse of a large star. For extremely massive stars that are four to five times the mass of our sun, the exclusion principle—the resistance between the molecular particles within the star as they are compressed—will not be strong enough to offset the gravity generated by the star’s own mass. The

star’s  increasing  density  will  overwhelm  the  exclusion  principle.  What follows is runaway gravitational collapse. With no internal force to stop it, the star will simply continue to collapse in on itself, until it reaches a point of infinite density and zero volume, a phenomenon known as a singularity. The  star  now  disappears  from  the  perceivable  universe,  like  a  cartoon character who jumps into a hole and pulls the hole in after him. What this process leaves behind is

a  different kind  of  hole—a profound  disturbance  in spacetime,  a region where gravity is so intense that nothing, not even light, can escape from it.

Any object falling within the boundary of a black hole will be sucked in and will disappear from our universe forever.

What would happen to an object, such as an astronaut, as it vanished into the black hole? Physicists have been amusing themselves with this question

for years. Most believe that the astronaut would be destroyed by the intense

gravitational forces within the black hole, or would explode in a flash of gamma rays as he or she approached the singularity at the hole’s core. Theoretically, an astronaut who managed to survive the passage would experience some very strange things, including acute time distortion, which would enable him or her to know, in a few brief seconds, the entire future of the universe in all its detail.

A.       carry

B.       arrange

C.        overflow

D.       counteract

A.       destroys a black hole

B.       can barely reveal a black hole

C.        does not exist near a black hole

D.       originates in spacetime

Should present trends continue, within five years it will be cheaper for audio enthusiasts to build their stereo systems around sets of separate, high quality tuners and amplifiers, rather than around integrated tuners and amplifiers, known as receivers. While receivers have been considered the necessary compromise for those with budget restrictions, recent trends in retail pricing seem destined to change that perception. The average retail price of a high–quality tuner has declined at a rate of 20 percent each of the last two years, and the average retail price of a high– quality amplifier has declined at the rate of 35 percent for each of those years. At the same time, the average retail price of integrated receivers has declined only 12 percent.

14. In evaluating the claim made in the passage above, information about which of the following would be most useful?

A.       the average life expectancy of stereo tuners as compared to the average life expectancy of stereo amplifiers

B.       the number of integrated receivers sold each year and the number of sets of separate tuners and amplifiers sold each year

C.        the present average retail price of an integrated receiver and the present average retail price of a tuner and amplifier set

D.       the number of separate tuner and amplifier sets expected to be purchased over the next five years and the number of inte–

grated receivers expected to be purchased over the next five years

E.        the percentage of audio enthusiasts who prefer separate tuner

and amplifier sets to integrated receivers
