1. Question

Prior to 1975, union efforts to organize public-sector electrical works, most of whom are women,
were somewhat limited. The factors favoring unionization drives seem to have been either the
presence of large numbers of workers, as in New York City, to make it worth the effort, or the
concentration of small numbers in one or two location, such as a hospital, to make it relatively
easy. Receptivity to unionization on the works part was also a consideration, but when there
were large numbers involved or the clerical workers were the only unorganized group in a
jurisdiction, the multi-occupational unions would often try to organize them regardless of the
workers initial receptivity. The strategic reasoning was based, first, on the concern that the
politicians and administrators might play off unionized workers against non-unionized workers
and, second, on the conviction that a fully unionized public work force meant power, both at the
bargaining table and in the legislature. In localities where clerical workers were few in number,
were scattered in several workplaces, and expressed no interest in being organized, unions more
often than not ignored them in the pre-1975 period.
But since the mid-1970s, a different strategy has emerged. In 1977, 34 percent of government
clerical workers were represented by a labor organization; compared with 46 percent of
government professionals, 44 percent of government blue-collar workers, and 41 percent of
government service workers. Since then, however, the biggest increases in public-sector
unionization have been among clerical workers. Between 1977 and 1980, the number of
unionized government workers in blue-collar and service occupation increased only about 1.5
percent, while in the white-collar occupations the increase was 20 percent and among clerical
workers in particular the increase was 22 percent.
What accounts for this upsurge in unionization among clerical workers? First, more women have
entered the work force in the past few years, and more of them plan to remain working until
retirement age. Consequently they are probably more concerned than their predecessors were
about job security and economic benefits. Also, the womens movement has succeeded in
legitimizing the economic and political activism of women on their own behalf. The absence of
any comparable increase in unionization among private-sector clerical workers, however,
identifies the primary catalyst the structural change in the multi-occupational public-sector
unions themselves. Over the past twenty years, the occupational distribution in these unions
has been steadily shifting from predominantly blue-collar to predominantly white-collar.
Because there are far more women in white-collar jobs, an increase in the proportion of female
members has accompanied the occupational shift and has altered union policy-making in favor of
organizing women and addressing womens issues.
The author cites union efforts to achieve a fully unionized work force in order to account for why

politicians might try to oppose public-sector union organizing

public-sector unions have recently focused on organizing women
early organizing efforts often focused on areas where there were large numbers of
workers
union efforts with regard to public-clerical workers increased dramatically after
1975
unions sometimes tried to organize workers regardless of workers' initial interest in
unionization

3. Question

Economic development in ASEAN countries has been backed by the favorable development of
the manufacturing industry and the expanded exports of industrial products. Specifically, in the
process shifting from industrialization by import substitution to an export-oriented
industrialization, manufacturing, including that in light industry such as textiles, electric
machinery and transportation equipment, was developed and the export of these products
expanded through active introduction of foreign capital. Within these conditions, a large number
of business groups were supported by the government in fostering of industry and expanded their
businesses by pushing joint ventures, with foreign firms. Although development by business
groups has occurred within various industry types, this development can be characterized by
diversification of production and markets in line with the forward and backward linkage of
production and participation in new business opportunities in various industries.
Industrialization in ASEAN countries gained momentum when-

governments and private entrepreneurs worked together

governments and foreign investors worked together
local and foreign investors worked together
 export of products expanded through active , participation of foreign capital
local entrepreneurs got support from I foreign governments

10. Question

In ancient times wealth was measured and exchanged tangibly, in thing that could be touched:
food, tools, and precious metals and stones, called Barter system. Then the barter system was
replaced by coins, which still had real value since they were pieces of rare metal. Coins were
followed by fiat money, paper notes that have value only because everyone agrees to accept
them.
Today electronic monetary systems are gradually being introduced that will transform money
into even less tangible forms, reducing it to bits or bytes, units of computerized information,
whizzing between machines at the speed of light. Already, electronic fund transfer allows money
to be instantly sent & received by banks, companies & countries through computers &
telecommunications devices.

Time and again it has been shown that students who attend colleges with low faculty/student
ratios get the best rounded education. As a result, when my children are ready to attend college,
Ill be sure they attend a school with a very small student population.
Which of the following, if true, identifies the greatest flaw in the reasoning above?

A low faculty student ratio is the effect of a well-rounded education, not its source.
Intelligence should be considered the result of childhood environment, not advanced
education.
A very small student population does not, by itself, ensure a low faculty/student
ratio.

university.

choosing small classes.

30. Question

Critical Reasoning: In an effort to save money, Mr. Kabir is considering shutting down one of
the largest textile units that has been just breaking even for the last five years. However, without
this unit, many workers will lose their jobs. Thus, Mr. Kabir, who is intending to shut down the
unit, will eventually have to provide these workers with money for terminating jobs without
legitimate reasons. Which of the following states the conclusion of the passage above?

The necessity of providing money to workers who will lose their jobs will prevent
Mr. Kabir from shutting down the textile unit.
If Mr. Kabir shuts down the textile unit, this will eventually force him to reopen in
future.
All the workers, who have lost jobs, will find jobs elsewhere.
 If the market demand for textile products increases in future Mr. Kabir will not be
able to restart the unit.
Terminating workers for reducing spending to save money will result in job
insecurity and probably unrest among workers of other units.
