You attend a community meeting at which people are discussing the possibility of approving a large-scale wind power project that would allow developers to install six large wind turbines on the crest of a hill in a rural, wooded part of the county, and this installation would be enough to supply the nearby community with electricity.
A final speaker acknowledges that wind turbines have problems but suggests that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. The area suffers from acid rain and particulate air pollution that is linked to a nearby coal-fired power plant. These wind turbines will decrease the amount of coal that must be burned, and this will reduce air pollution. Though some animals may, unfortunately, be killed, the wind installation will help the ecosystem as a whole, he argues, making it healthier for the plants and animals that live there.
His argument addresses concerns of those with point of view.

A. a biocentric
B. an ecocentric
C. an anthropocentric
D. both an anthropocentric and biocentric
E. both an anthropocentric and ecocentric

Scientist: cross-sections of stalactites—calcite formations deposited on cave ceilings by seeping water—can reveal annual variations in rainfall in particular areas over hundreds and thousands of years. we often found that when—according to these cross-sections—drought occurred in a particular area, it coincided with the collapse of an ancient society in that area. i hypothesize that drought reduced agricultural productivity in these areas, thereby leaving these societies without the resources needed to handle internal stresses and external threats. which of the following, if true, would most weaken the support for the scientist's hypothesis? a. many droughts indicated in the cross-sections of stalactites do not correspond with the collapse of a society in that area. b. information from the cross-sections of stalactites alone cannot reveal the level of agricultural output in an area at a particular time. c. most of the societies that collapsed during droughts did so when internal power struggles coincided with military raids from neighboring societies. d. most of the societies that collapsed during droughts maintained large stockpiles of food and water at the time of their collapse. e. information from stalactites also suggests that the collapse of some societies coincided with periods of abnormally high rainfall.
