GRE Answers

Antonyms
1. The correct answer is (C). Literally, palatable means "acceptable to the taste" or "agreeable in flavor." The word unappetizing means "not appetizing", or "not palatable."
Analogies
1. The correct answer is (D). To be impregnable is to be able to withstand almost any kind of assault; to be immutable is to be unchangeable and therefore able to turn away virtually any kind of alteration.
Sentence Completions
1. The correct answer is (C). To fit the idea of inventions originating as toys, we want the second bank to suggest "results" that are not serious or important — the opposite of what we think about toys. Hence, "weighty."
Reading Comprehension
1. The correct answer is (A). Notice that the first paragraph says that Morrison "bristles" at how her work is sometimes described, and that the second and third paragraphs quote her own comments. Clearly, the passage is mainly concerned with presenting Morrison's own viewpoint about her writing.

2. The correct answer is (D). See the first sentence of the second paragraph, which makes clear the underlying point being made by the author in citing the use of the supernatural in Morrison's writing.
Math Multiple-Choice
1. The correct answer is (E). x2 – 4x – 5 = (x – 5)(x + 1), and x2 – 6x – 7 = (x – 7)(x + 1). The common factor is x+ 1, choice (E).
Quantitative Comparisons
1. The correct answer is (D). Take two examples. If x = 1, then y = 21, and Column B is greater. On the other hand, take x = –1, then y = –21, and Column A is greater. Therefore, (D) is correct.
