- About 5,000 people convicted of nonviolent crimes in the state have been given community-service sentences instead of prison sentences. The services they have to perform depend on their training and skills; the services range from scrubbing floors to conducting research for the state. This program, which began in 1979, has grown immensely due to the drunken-driver legislation enacted a few months ago.
Which of the following incidents occurring in the 1970’s could have prompted the introduction of the community-service program in 1979?
(A) The number of violent crimes in the state exhibited a decrease.
(B) The number of crimes committed by employees of the state increased.
(C) The median age of judges in the state exhibited a gradual decrease.
(D) The prisons of the state grew overcrowded.
(E) The passing of the drunken-driver legislation in other states.
- It is a fact that an increase in the demand for a limited number of products leads to an increase in the price of those products. But, in case tax rates are cut, people will retain a higher portion of their income, which will in turn encourage them to work harder in an attempt to produce more. Hence, increase in demand resulting from greater disposable income will not result in higher prices for the products available.
Which of the following arguments are made in the above passage?
(A) Reduction of taxes will lead to less disposable income.
(B) Reduction of taxes will most probably decrease demand.
(C) Reduction of taxes will fail to produce greater disposable income.
(D) Reduction of taxes will result in inadequate availability of certain products.
(E) Reduction of taxes will not necessarily lead to increased prices.
