The use of renewable sources of energy to produce electricity [have / has] increasingly [encouraged / been encouraged] as a way to harmonize the need to secure electricity supply with environmental protection [subjectivities / objectives]. [But / So] the use of renewable sources also [come / comes] with its own consequences, [they require / which require] consideration. Renewable sources of energy [include / are included] a variety of sources such as hydropower and ocean-based technologies.

24.
Chewing leads to smaller particles for swallowing, and [less / more] [exposing / exposed] surface area for digestive enzymes to act on. [On the other hand, / In other words,] it means the [extraction / contraction] of more fuel and raw materials from a mouthful of food. This is especially [insignificant / invaluable] for mammals because they heat their bodies from within. Chewing gives mammals the energy [needing / needed] to be [active / inactive] not only during the day _____ _____ the cool night, and [living / to live] in colder climates or places with [stable / changing] temperatures. It allows them to [sustain / lose] higher levels of activity and [travel / travels] speeds to cover larger distances, avoid predators, capture prey, and make and care for their young. Mammals are [able / unable] to live in an [incredible / incredibly] variety of habitats, from Arctic tundra to Antarctic pack ice, deep open waters to high-altitude mountaintops, and rainforests to deserts, in no small measure because of their [feet. / teeth.]

Each species of animals can [overlook / detect] a different range of odours. No species can detect all the molecules that are present in the environment [where / which] it lives in - there are some things [that / what] we cannot smell but which some other animals can, and vice versa. There are also differences between individuals, relating to the ability to smell an odour, or how [pleasant / pleasantly] it seems. [Otherwise, / For example,] some people like the taste of coriander —known cilantro in the USA — while others find it soapy and unpleasant. This effect has an [underlining /underlying] genetic component due to differences in the genes [controlling / controlled] our sense of smell. Ultimately, the [collection / selection] of scents [deleted / detected] by a given species, and [what / how] that odour [perceives /is perceived], will depend upon the animal’s [biology / ecology]. The response profile of each species will enable it to [locating / locate] sources of smell _____ _____ [relevant / relative] to it and to respond accordingly.

Recent research suggests that evolving humans’ relationship with dogs [changed / should change] the structure of [either / both] species’ brains. One of _____ various physical changes [causes / caused] by domestication [are / is] a reduction in the size of the brain: 16 percent for horses, 34 percent for pigs, and 10 to 30 percent for dogs. This is [because / why] once humans started to take care of these animals, they no longer needed [simple / various] brain functions in order to survive. Animals who [fed / were fed] and protected by humans did not need many of the skills [requiring / required] by their wild ancestors and [losing / lost] the parts of the brain related to those [sizes / capacities]. A similar process occurred for humans, who seem to [be domesticated / have been domesticated] by wolves. About 10,000 years ago, when the role of dogs was firmly established in most human societies, the human brain also [enlarged / shrank] by about 10 percent.
31.

Business consultant Frans Johansson describes the Medici effect as the [emergency / emergence] of new ideas and creative solutions when different backgrounds and [disapprovals / disciplines] come together. The term is derived from the 15th-century Medici family, who helped [ushering / usher] in the Renaissance by bringing together artists, writers, and other creatives from all over the world. [Arguable / Arguably], the Renaissance was a result of the exchange of ideas between these [similar / different] groups in close contact with each other. Sound familiar?

As [many / much] as we can learn by examining fossils, it is important to remember that they [always / seldom] tell the entire story. Things only fossilize under certain sets of conditions. Modern insect communities are highly [diverse / similar] in tropical forests, but the recent fossil record captures [lots / little] of that diversity. Many creatures [consume / are consumed] entirely or [compose / decompose] rapidly when they die, so there may be [no / enough] fossil record at all for important groups. It’s a bit [similar / familiar] to a family photo album. Maybe when you were born your parents took lots of pictures, but over the years they took photographs [often, / occasionally,] and sometimes they got busy and forgot [taking / to take] pictures at all. Very [few/a few] of us have a [complete / incomplete] photo record of our life. Fossils are just [like /alike] that. Sometimes you get very clear pictures of the past, while at other times there are [small / big] gaps, and you need to notice what [are they. / they are.]

[That’s / What’s] interesting is [that / what] the company [turned down / willingly welcomed] over 95 percent of those offers and began [serving / to serve] only four new locations. It turned down tremendous [growth / deficit] because company leadership [set / had set] a(n) [upper / lower] limit for growth. Sure, its executives wanted to grow each year, but they didn’t want to grow too much. [Dislike / Unlike] other famous companies, they wanted to set their own pace, one that could be [maintained / sustained] in the [short /long] term. By doing this, they established a [danger / safety] margin for growth that helped them continue to [stop / thrive] at a time [which / when] the other airlines were flailing.

The Barnum Effect is the phenomenon [which / where] someone reads or hears something very [general / specific] but [believe / believes] that it applies to them. These statements [appear / are appeared] to be very personal on the surface but in fact, they are [true / false] for many. Human psychology allows us to [want / wanting] to believe [what / that] we can identify with on a personal level and even [avoid / seek] information where it doesn’t necessarily exist, [fill / filling] in the blanks with our imagination for the rest. This is the principle that horoscopes [rely on it, / rely on,] [offer / offering] data that appears to be personal but probably [making / makes] sense to [few / countless] people. Since the people [read / reading] them want to believe the information so badly, they will search for meaning in their lives that make it [true / truly].
36.
[Imagining / Imagine] yourself at a party. It is dark and a group of friends ask you to take a picture of them. You grab your camera, point, and shoot your friends. The camera automatically turns on the flash as there is not enough light available to produce a(n) [correct / incorrect] exposure. The [cause / result] is half of your friends appear in the picture with two bright red circles instead of their eyes. This is a common problem [calling / called] the red-eye effect. It [causes / is caused] because the light from the flash [penetrating / penetrates] the eyes through the pupils, and then gets [reflecting / reflected] to the camera from the back of the eyes [which / where] a large amount of blood is present. This blood is the reason [which / why] the eyes [look at / look] red in the photograph. This effect is more [noticeable / unnoticeable] when there is [too / not] much light in the environment. This is [because/why] pupils [dilate / shrink] when it is dark, [allowing / allowed] more light to get inside the eye and producing a larger red-eye effect.
37.
Even though two [varieties / variables] seem to be [related, / unrelated,] there may not be a [casual / causal] relationship. [Instead, / In fact,] the two variables may merely seem to be [associating / associated] with each other due to the effect of some third variable. Sociologists call such [misleading / misunderstanding] relationships spurious. A [classic / classical] example is the [apparent / weak] association between children’s shoe size and reading ability. It seems that as shoe size increases, reading ability [deteriorates. / improves.] Does this mean that the size of one’s feet (independent variable) causes an improvement in reading skills (dependent variable)? Certainly not. This false relationship [caused / is caused] by a third factor, age, [what / that] is related to shoe size _____ ______ _____ reading ability. [Hence, / Otherwise,] when researchers attempt to make causal claims about the relationship between an independent and a dependent variable, they must control for - or [rule out / include] — other variables that may be creating a [genuine / spurious] relationship.
38.
Daylight isn’t the only signal [where / that] the brain can use for the purpose of biological clock resetting, though it is the [peripheral / principal] and preferential signal, when [absent. / present.] So long as they are [reliable / reliably] repeating, the brain can also use other [internal / external] cues, such as food, exercise, and even [regular / regularly] timed social interaction. All of these events [has / have] the ability to reset the biological clock, [allowed / allowing] it to strike a precise [twenty-four-hour / twenty-four-hours] note. It is the reason [which / that] individuals with certain forms of blindness do not entirely lose their circadian rhythm. [In additin to / Despite] [receiving not / not receiving] light cues due to their blindness, other phenomena [act / acts] as their resetting triggers. Any signal that the brain uses for the purpose of clock resetting [are / is] termed a zeitgeber, from the German “time giver” or “synchronizer.” [Yet, / Thus,] while light is the [more / most] reliable and thus the [primary / secondary] zeitgeber, there are many factors [that / where] can [use / be used] [in addition / in addition to], or in the [presence / absence] of, daylight.
