A.Many street crimes, such as drug dealing, are extremely lucrative and those committing them can afford expensive private lawyers.
B.Most prosecutors are not competent to handle cases involving highly technical financial evidence and have more success in prosecuting cases of robbery or simple assault.
C.The number of criminals convicted of street crimes is far greater than the number of criminals convicted of embezzlement or insider trading.
D.The percentage of defendants who actually committed the crimes of which they are accused is no greater for publicly defended than for privately defended defendants.
E.Juries, out of sympathy for the victims of crimes, are much more likely to convict defendants accused of violent crimes than they are to convict defendants accused of "victimless" crimes or crimes against property.

vy development costs can be recouped in later sales, the current 20 years of protection provided by patents should be extended in the case of newly developed drugs. However, in other industries new-product development continues despite high development costs, a fact that indicates that the extension is unnecessary. Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the pharmaceutical industry s argument against the challenge made above?
A.No industries other than the pharmaceutical industry have asked for an extension of the 20-year limit on patent protection.
B.Clinical trials of new drugs, which occur after the patent is granted and before the new drug can be marketed, often now take as long as 10 years to complete.
C.There are several industries in which the ratio of research and development costs to revenues is higher than it is in the pharmaceutical industry.
D.An existing patent for a drug does not legally prevent pharmaceutical companies from bringing to market alternative drugs, provided they are sufficiently dissimilar to the patented drug.
E.Much recent industrial innovation has occurred in products—for example, in the computer and electronics industries—for which patent protection is often very ineffective.

ars, which consume greater amounts of gasoline as fuel. So United States automakers are unwilling to pursue the development of new fuel-efficient technologies aggressively. The particular reluctance of the United States automobile industry to do so, however, could threaten the industrys future. Which of the following, if true, would provide the most support for the claim above about the future of the United States automobile industry?
A.A prototype fuel-efficient vehicle, built five years ago, achieves a very high 81 miles per gallon on the highway and 63 in the city, but its materials are relatively costly.
B.Small cars sold by manufacturers in the United States are more fuel efficient now than before the sudden jump in oil prices in 1973.
C.Automakers elsewhere in the world have slowed the introduction of fuel-efficient technologies but have pressed ahead with research and development of them in preparation for a predicted rise in world oil prices.
D.There are many technological opportunities for reducing the waste of energy in cars and light trucks through weight, aerodynamic drag, and braking friction.
E.The promotion of mass transit over automobiles as an alternative mode of transportation has encountered consumer resistance that is due in part to the failure of mass transit to accommodate the wide dispersal of points of origin and destinations for trips.
