LSAT考试官方2016年12月练习题
24. A contract between two parties is valid only ifone party accepts a legitimate offer from the other; an offer is not legitimateif someone in the position of the party to whom it was made would reasonablybelieve the offer to be made in jest.
The principle stated above, if valid, most helps tojustify the reasoning in which one of the following arguments?
(A) Joe made a legitimate offer to buy Sandy’s car and Sandy has not rejected the offer. Thus,there was a valid contract.
(B) Kenta accepted Gus’s offer to buy a shipment of goods, but Gus,unknown to Kenta, made the offer in jest. Thus, the contract was not valid.
(C) Frank’s offer to buy Mindy’s business from her was legitimate. Thus, if Mindy is a reasonable person,she will accept the offer.
(D) Hai’s offer to sell artworks to Lea was made in such a way that no one in Lea’s position would have reasonably believed it to bemade in jest. Thus, if Lea accepts the offer, they have a valid contract.
(E) The only offer that Sal made to Veronica wasnot a legitimate one. Thus, regardless of whether Sal made the offer in jest,there is no valid contract between them.
25. Scientist: A small group of islands near
Australia is inhabited by several species of iguana; closely related species
also exist in the Americas, but nowhere else. The islands in question formed
long after the fragmentation of Gondwana, the ancient supercontinent that
included present-day South America and Australia. Thus, these species’progenitorsmust have rafted on floating debris across the Pacific Ocean from the Americas.
Which one of the following, if true, most weakens
the scientist’sargument?
(A) A number of animal species that inhabit theislands are not found in the Americas.
(B) Genetic analysis indicates that the iguanaspecies on the islands are different in several respects from those found inthe Americas.
(C) Documented cases of iguanas rafting longdistances between land masses are uncommon.
(D) Fossils of iguana species closely related tothose that inhabit the islands have been found in Australia.
(E) The lineages of numerous plant and animalspecies found in Australia or in South America date back to a period prior tothe fragmentation of Gondwana.
26. A recent archaeological find in what was oncethe ancient kingdom of Macedonia contains the remains of the largest tomb everfound in the region. It must be the tomb of Alexander the Great since he wasthe greatest Macedonian in history, and so would have had the largest tomb.After all, he conquered an empire that stretched from Greece to much of Asia,though it collapsed after his death.
The reasoning in the argument is most vulnerable tocriticism on the grounds that the argument
(A) takes for granted that greatness can beattained only by military conquest
(B) takes for granted that the largest tomb foundso far must be the largest that was built
(C) does not show how the recently discovered tombcompares with other tombs from the same period that have been found in otherregions
(D) fails to evaluate the significance of the fact
that Alexander’sempire did not survive his death
(E) takes for granted that archaeologists candetermine the size of the tomb from its remains
