Dragon against Tiger is an important work of Nihonga, or classical Japanese painting. Unlike Wada Eisaku, who adopted traditional European methods such as painting with oil on canvas, Hashimoto Gahō ______ traditional Japanese approaches. For instance, Hashimoto produced Dragon against Tiger by applying color pigments to a silk surface.

Domesticated thousands of years ago in South America, the tomatillo deviates structurally from the wild plant it is descended from. Summer squash, another domesticated crop from the Americas, doesn't closely resemble any wild plant, and genetic research only recently _______ its ancestor to be the wild Johnny gourd.

Text corpora, such as the British National Corpus are enormous collections of electronically stored texts that can be used for empirical testing of hypotheses regarding the frequency of typical word usage. If one has a _______ that the word "own" has a high incidence in English, for example, an analysis of a corpus can support that hypothesis by showing that "own" is the eighth most commonly used adjective.

Researchers have long hypothesized that woolly mammoths were hunted to extinction in North America by humans using spears with grooved tips known as Clovis points. One anthropologist set out to test this hypothesis. Using a mechanical spear-thrower, he launched spears with Clovis points into mounds of clay—substitutes for the animals' large bodies. The projectiles generally penetrated only a few inches into the clay, an amount insufficient to have harmed most woolly mammoths. This led the anthropologist to conclude that hunters using spears with Clovis points likely weren't the principal drivers of the extinction.

The University of Wisconsin and the online class provider Coursera are two of the many institutions offering training programs in entrepreneurship. But what results do such programs produce? In a study of aspiring entrepreneurs in the United States, researcher James Chrisman and colleagues addressed this question and reported that participants who received entrepreneurial training showed high performance at their jobs.

Text 2

While studies of entrepreneurial training typically report positive results, a close look reveals widespread methodological shortcomings that could explain those findings. These studies are plagued by insufficient sample sizes, a lack of control groups, and failures to establish pretraining baselines for the measured attributes of participants.

"Cocoa" is an example of a loanword—that is, a word that originated in one language and was later adopted by another. The word came to English indirectly from cacao, the Spanish word for the plant that chocolate is made from. Spanish had borrowed it from Nahuatl, an Indigenous language of Central Mexico, in which the word's original form is cacahuatl. "Puma" is also Indigenous in origin and entered English through Spanish. But in this case, the original source was Quechua, a language of South America, in which the word for the mountain lion is also puma.

In Bolivia, use of solid fuel (e.g., coal, wood) as a share of total household fuel use fell by more than half between 2000 and 2015; such shifts are typically explained by appeal to the energy ladder, a model holding that fuel choice is mediated mainly by household income specifically, high-technology fuels displace solid fuels as incomes rise). Richard Hoster and Jeffrey Dowd's study of fuel use in Zimbabwe shows how reductive this model is, however: although income of course constrained fuel choice, several factors, including the difficulty of acquiring fuel sources, influenced decisions.

The following text is adapted from Daniel Defoe's 1704 nonfiction book The Storm.

The sermon is a sound of words spoken to the ear, and prepared only for present meditation, and extends no farther than the strength of memory can convey it; a book printed is a record; remaining in every man's possession, always ready to renew its acquaintance with his memory, and always ready to be produced as an authority or voucher to any reports he makes out of it, and conveys its contents for ages to come, to the eternity of mortal time, when the author is forgotten in his grave.

A student is researching the trends in the topics submitted to a national science fair for high school students. The graph shows the number of submissions by topic that were made each year. Based on the data in the graph, the student claims that there were more medicine and health research topics submitted in 2019 than in any other year.

Veronica L. Bura, Akito Y. Kawahara, and Jayne E. Yack investigated the evolution and function of sound production in silk moth and hawk moth caterpillars. They found that during harmless simulated attacks on isolated caterpillars, 33% of the tested species produced sound, which ranged from clicks in Actias luna to whistles in Rhodinia fugax. Although some insects use sound to communicate with members of the same species, the researchers claim that the caterpillar sounds recorded in their study are directed primarily at predators.

What makes the theremin a unique musical instrument? You play it without touching it. When you place your _______ the pitch will shift as your hands move through the air.

• She concluded that children with highly involved parents performed significantly better academically.

While researching a topic, a student has taken the following notes:

• A supercontinent is a single landmass made up of most or all of Earth's continents.
• Over time, continents merge together to form supercontinents, which then break apart.
• This process is believed to take hundreds of millions of years and is known as the supercontinent cycle.

• Euramerica formed about 300 million years ago.
• Kenorland formed about 2.6 billion years ago.

• The Haystack Mountain School of Crafts (1961) is a building complex designed by American architect Edward Larrabee Barnes.
• It is located in Deer Isle, Maine.
• It features a cluster of cedar-shingled buildings.
• It is considered an impressive example of critical regionalist architecture

Whether the reign of a French monarch such as Francis Il or Louis XI was considered historically significant or, conversely, relatively _______, its trajectory was shaped by questions of legitimacy and therefore cannot be understood without a corollary understanding of the factors that allowed the monarch to assert a claim to the throne successfully.

Renowned for his sharp clarity and impactful writing, George Orwell stood out among his peers. Unlike the rambling prose of some of his contemporaries, George Orwell's works were neither ______ nor myopic.

Studying wrappers from discontinued candies, menus from nineteenth-century restaurants, and flyers promoting long-forgotten sporting events may seem like a frivolous pursuit, but ephemeral objects like these are useful as markers of cultural change: they can ______ shifts in norms, values, and concerns that traditional objects of historical inquiry may not.

________ though it seemed to many mathematicians, the Marden tameness conjecture, posed in 1974, eventually yielded to the efforts of lan Agol, who presented a proof of it in 2004.

Why do rusty-spotted cats purr but jaguars roar? Researchers hypothesize that this difference between the two feline species may be partly due to a U-shaped bone in their throats called the hyoid. Rusty-spotted cats, which are much smaller than jaguars, have a rigid hyoid that rumbles when the cat's larynx vibrates, resulting in a purr. By contrast, jaguars have a somewhat flexible hyoid, and the bone is attached to the skull with a stretchy ligament that rusty-spotted cats lack. These traits allow jaguars and most other species of big cats to produce powerful roars. The same traits may also prevent most big cats from purring.

Scholarly interest in literary juvenilia—writings by children and teenagers—tends to focus on unpublished works by authors who became famous as adults, such as Charles Dickens's poem "The Bill of Fare," which he wrote around the ages of 18-20, because they offer insights into their authors' artistic development. But some scholars also argue that recovering juvenilia by lesser-known writers is essential to understanding literary history: Daisy Ashford's novels, which she published as a child, were widely read by contemporaries and are therefore deserving of closer attention.

To understand how temperature change affects microorganism-mediated cycling of soil nutrients in alpine ecosystems, Eva Kaštovská et al. collected plant-soil cores in the Tatra Mountains at elevations around 2,100 meters and transplanted them to elevations of 1,700-1,800 meters, where the mean air temperature was warmer by 2°C. Microorganism-mediated nutrient cycling was accelerated in the transplanted cores; crucially, microorganism community composition was unchanged, allowing Kaštovská et al. to attribute the acceleration to temperature-induced increases in microorganism activity.

Michael G. Campana and colleagues relied on historical DNA (hDNA)—genomic data incidentally preserved in specimens housed in natural history collections—to investigate the evolutionary origins of a fungal pathogen affecting bats. Although this approach offers unique benefits, such as access to genomic data from extirpated populations, it remains a relatively underutilized resource because DNA is often to some extent degraded, a situation not easily remediable under current methodological paradigms and with extant DNA extraction and analysis technologies.

In a paper for an art history class, a student claims that Rosa Bonheur's 1855 painting The Horse Fair marks a significant change in Bonheur's artistic development.

Neurobiologists Laura Cuaya, Raúl Hernández-Pérez, and colleagues investigated the language detection abilities of eighteen dogs. The researchers monitored the brain activity of Kun-kun (a border collie), Bingo (a mixed breed), and other dogs while the animals listened to three recordings: one of The Little Prince being read in Spanish, the second in Hungarian, and a third made up of short, randomly selected fragments of the first two, scrambled so that they didn't resemble human speech. Each dog was familiar with either Spanish or Hungarian, but not both. The team concluded that differences in dogs' anatomical features may affect their ability to distinguish speech from nonspeech.

"Poetry" is a 1919 poem by Marianne Moore. The poem highlights an ambivalence toward poetry as the speaker acknowledges its merits while also expressing a sense of displeasure, writing ______

Cane is a 1923 novel by Jean Toomer. In one portion of the novel, Toomer uses figurative language to connect the narrator's urban environment of Washington, DC, and the rural South of the narrator's past, writing, _________

Some climate models for the western United States predict that while total annual precipitation may remain unchanged from the present level, precipitation will become concentrated into fewer but more intense rain and snow events. University of Texas climate scientist Geeta Persad and her colleagues simulated how the amount of water entering aquifers and the amount being used for irrigation purposes would change if this were to occur. Persad and her colleagues concluded that concentration of precipitation into fewer events would result in a higher number of dry days, triggering more irrigation, but that this change in irrigation output is highly sensitive to the baseline concentration of precipitation that currently exists in an area.

Ships in the British Royal Navy during the Napoleonic Wars (1803-1815) were ranked based on military strength. The system considered the number of a ship's cannons and decks. "First-rate" was the highest ranking, and "sixth-rate" was the lowest ranking, followed by unranked ships. The size of a ship's crew was based on this ranking: first-rate ships had between 850 and 875 crewmen, while lower-ranked ships had fewer. Two of the ships in the British Royal Navy from this period were the Boyne (98 cannons and three decks) and the Britannia (120 cannons and three decks). Of these two, only the Britannia was ranked a first-rate ship. It can therefore be concluded that _______

In a 2018 study, Deepak Jaiswal and Rishi Kant found that consumers' knowledge of environmental issues had no effect on the likelihood that the consumers would purchase environmentally friendly products. Since this study was based on fewer than 400 young adults in India, however, doubts have been raised about how reliable and representative the findings are. To better understand the issue, Wencan Zhuang and colleagues analyzed the results of 54 studies of eco-friendly consumer behavior, such as a 2018 study from Indonesia that included 916 participants and a 2018 study from India with 202 participants. Taking all 54 studies together, Zhuang and colleagues found a significant positive effect of environmental knowledge on eco-friendly purchasing decisions, suggesting that _____

As of 2017, Italy's top tax rate of 55% was lower than the country's Laffer curve peak (70%). To some economists, whether a tax cut will ultimately increase Italy's tax revenue is dependent on the country's position on the Laffer _______ a theoretical relationship between tax rates and revenues, the curve was famously sketched on a napkin by economist Arthur Laffer in 1974.

Working together with the Navajo Nation Department of Water Resources, Dr. Lani Tsinnajinnie analyzed data about snowpack levels in the Chuska Mountains. She found that the snowpack (the amount of snow on the ground) was deepest in early March at lower elevations. At higher elevations, _______ the snowpack was deepest in mid-March.

Biographer Michael Gorra notes that the novelist Henry James "lived in a world of second thoughts," frequently tinkering with his novels and stories after their initial publication. However, the differences between the 1881 first edition and the 1908 edition of his novel A Portrait of a Lady are extreme, even by James's standards; ______ some critics regard the two editions as two different novels altogether.

Scientists studying asteroid deflection have focused on secondary objects such as S/2020 (2013 PY6), a moonlet orbiting the near-Earth asteroid 2013 PY6. In 2022, NASA intentionally crashed a probe into just such an object, successfully altering its orbit. Scientists have yet to demonstrate, _________ that 2013 PY6 and other primary objects would be similarly affected.

The following text is from Charles Chesnutt's 1905 novel The Colonel's Dream.

Mr. French and Mr. Kirby work together. Mr. French, the senior partner, who sat opposite Kirby, was an older man—a safe guess would have placed him somewhere in the debatable ground between forty and fifty; of a good height, as could be seen even from the seated figure, the upper part of which was held erect with the unconscious ease which one associates with military training.

In the 2010s, the price of vintage Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles action figures rose dramatically, which had the counterintuitive effect of ______ demand: buyers who hadn't previously wanted to purchase old action figures suddenly thronged the market, believing prices would continue to rise and the toys could be resold later at a profit.

In 2013, Fredrik Jutfelt and Maria Hedgarde published a study concluding that ocean acidification has a strong effect on the behavior of Gadus morhua, a species of fish. However, Jutfelt and Hedgarde's study relied on a mean sample size of only about 16 fish. In a 2022 review of various scientists' conclusions about the impacts of ocean acidification on fish behavior, Josefin Sundin and colleagues caution that relying on such a relatively small sample size can increase the potential for biased analysis. Such analysis, in turn, can contribute to reports of exaggerated effects.

The following text is from Lady Gregory's 1904 play Spreading the News. Mrs. Tarpey, Bartley, and Mrs. Fallon have been buying and selling goods at the local fair.

MRS. TARPEY: Good morrow, Bartley Fallon; good morrow, Mrs. Fallon. Well, Bartley, you'll find no cause for complaining today; they are all saying it was a good fair.

BARTLEY: (Raising his voice.) It was not a good fair, Mrs.Tarpey. It was a scattered sort of a fair. If we didn't expect more, we got less. That's the way with me always; whatever I have to sell goes down and whatever I have to buy goes up. If there's ever any misfortune coming to this world, it's on myself it pitches, like a flock of crows on seed potatoes.

The following text is from Nathaniel Hawthorne's 1830 short story “Sir William Phips."

Few of the personages of past times (except such as have gained renown in fireside legends as well as in written history) are anything but mere names to their successors. They seldom standup in our imaginations like men. The knowledge, communicated by the historian and biographer, is analogous to that which we acquire of a country by the map, minute, perhaps, and accurate, and available for all necessary purposes, but cold and naked, and wholly destitute of the mimic charm produced by landscape painting.

As complex life cycle parasites, Gonocerca sp, and Clavinema mariae require multiple host species throughout their development. Extrapolating from parasite counts on surf smelt and seven other fish species collected from Puget Sound from 2018 to 2019, Chelsea Wood et al. found that the abundance of three host parasites, such as Gonocerca sp., negatively correlated with rising average annual sea temperatures; the abundance of two-host parasites, such as C.mariae, was largely stable. Noting that fish and other marine vertebrates are especially vulnerable to climate change, Wood et al. observed that all three host parasites in the study depend on at least two vertebrate species, while all two host parasites depend on only one, suggesting that ______

In Antarctica, the Dome C East observatory site monitors activity in the upper atmosphere of the southern ______ in Canada, another observatory site, Rankin Inlet, monitors the sky of the northern hemisphere. Together, they are part of the Super Dual Auroral Radar Network --- or SuperDARN, as space physicists like Mark Lester call it.

Like many of Ay-O's paintings, Butterfly, which portrays a swimmer performing the butterfly stroke, attempts to make use of the entire visual light ______ sporting rainbow-striped goggles, the rainbow-hued swimmer splashes through a wavy rainbow of water.

The 20th century saw the founding of many Latino advocacy ______ to protect and advance the rights of Latino Americans, both the Mexican American Political Association (1960) and the Partido Nacional de La Raza Unida (1970) contributed to the history of US civil rights.

Estonia, Spain, and the other member nations of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, or NATO, share a commitment to the principle of collective defense, each NATO member ______to defend the others if necessary.

Modernista architects championed nature in their designs. ______ the domed entryway and ornate floral ironwork of Umbracle, a Modernista pavilion designed by Josep Fontserè i Mestre, couldn't exactly grow in a forest. Still, one sees natural influences in Fontserè i Mestre's penchant for curves (rather than right angles) and plant-and animal-inspired flourishes.
