  3. ---
  4. Reading Test - ETS 1.2
  5. 5 - vocabulary - C
  6. 7 - vocabulary - D
  7. 8 - purpose - D (These are examples of different types of plants, not of different places plants grow, so the “range” in the previous sentence isn’t geographical.)
  8. ---
  9. BREAK
  10. ---
  11. Listening Test
  12. ---
  13. 9 - vocabulary - A (High concentrations of metals provide protection.)
  14. 10 - paraphrase - C (The process happens after the area is already contaminated.)
  15. 11 - inference - D (The standard practice is excavation and reburial, which is much faster than the “several years” it takes for phytoremediation.)
  16. 12 - purpose - B (Alpine pennycress is the one that can remove zinc.)
  17. 13 - sentence insertion - A (Usually general statements go before specific statements. The new sentence introduces the idea that some metals are accumulated more often than others, and the next sentence says 75% of hyperaccumulators accumulate nickel, which is a specific detail.)
  18. 17 - vocabulary - A (Something “overwhelming” is too powerful to resist.)
  19. 19 - inference - C (The early theories were “fanciful” and devised “in the absence of...data”.)
  20. 23 - paraphrase - D (Remember that the answer needs to include both parts of the original.)
  21. 24 - vocabulary - C (“Undisputed” means no one disagrees. It would not normally be a synonym of “acknowledged”, but that’s the closest choice in this case.)
  22. 25 - negative fact - B (The others are mentioned in the third sentence of the paragraph.)
  23. 27 - sentence insertion - D (“The other direction” means from the east (e.g. South America) instead of from the west.)
  24. 29 - vocabulary - B
  25. 31 - vocabulary - A (“diverse” = with different kinds or types, varied; “diversification” = the process of making something diverse)
  26. 32 - purpose - B (This mistake was consistent with your mistake for 31.)
