Criticism that the press panders to public sentiment neglects to consider that the press is a profit-making institution. Like other private enterprises, it has to make money to survive. If press were not profit-making, who would support it? The only alternative is subsidy and, with it, outside control. It is easy to get subsidies for propaganda, but no one will subsidize honest journalism. It can be properly inferred from the passage that if the press is (A) not subsidized, it is in no danger of outside control (B) not subsidized, it will not produce propaganda © not to be subsidized, it cannot be a profit-making institution (D) to produce honest journalism, it must be profit-making institution (E) to make a profit, it must produce honest journalism Please explain your approach for such questions. OA is:

Hi Refer to the link where 800Bob has given explanation why the correct option is B http://www.www.urch.com/forums/gmat-sentence-correction/49989-antarctica-2.html

I will go with A

a tricky question, C appears to be the answer on first analysis but D is the correct answer as explained correctly by mchammer Thanks Vivek

C and E Please post OA

I will go with A as well. what is the OA

I will also go with A and B please post the OA

IMO E I think B cannot be the answer because: (B) All shifts in climate produce a net gain in human progress.---argument states only drastic changes in climate cause migration

What is the OA for this question? Thanks Vivek

Hi Can someone send the document to sain.vivek@gmail.com Thanks a ton..

I will go with the above explanations. n= -3

For Q3 If m r x and y are positive is the ratio of m to r equal to the ratio of x/y. 1) ratio of m/y is equal to the ratio of x to r. 2) ratio of m+x to r+y is equal to the ratio of x to y. Statement 1 m/y = x/r This doesn't give any info about comparison of ratios m/r = x/y, hence insufficient Statement 2 m+x/r+y = x/y This is equivalent t saying m/r = x/y becuase of the following property of ratios: a/b = c/d = d/e = ..... = k = a+c+d+.../v+d+e+..... i.e. 1/2 = 2/4 = 1+2/2+4 Thanks Vivek

Hi I haven't been able to download the cheatsheet . Can someone please e-mail it to me? Thanks

Hi samratisking As correctly explained by indy123 in the post above that we cannot make the final conclusion based on the statement 'vast majority of countries with single party' because we do not have the relative number of countries given. Thanks

Hi Can someone explain in detail how the answer for 6 is C? Thanks Vivek

Thanks in advance... hoping to share and gain from this forum. Thanks Vivek
