PART II

 Read the following text.  The passage contains some blank spaces.  Choose the sentence from the list A – I, that best fits in each of the blank spaces.  The numbers in brackets refer to Question numbers.
In the art of Middle Ages, we never encounter the personality of the artist as an individual; rather it is diffused through the artistic genius of centuries embodied in the rules of religious art. _______. The circular halo placed vertically behind the head signifies sainthood, while the halo impressed with a cross signifies divinity. By bare feet, we recognize God, the angels, Jesus Christ and the apostles, but for an artist to have depicted the Virgin Mary with bare feet would have been tantamount to heresy. ______. A tree, which is to say a single stalk with two or three stylized leaves, informs us that the scene is laid on earth. ______; and should an angel be watching from the battlements, that city is thereby identified as Jerusalem. Saint Peter is always depicted with curly hair, a short beard and a tonsure, _____. Through this system, even the most mediocre talent was elevated by the genius’ of the centuries.______. When they are not outstanding, they are scarcely able to avoid insignificance and banality in their religious works; and even when they are great _____.
A. An artist who faithfully followed the rules of religious obligation and was not recognized during his lifetime.
B. Art of the Middle Ages is a sacred script, the symbols and meaning of which were settled.
C. They are no more than the equal of the old masters who passively followed the sacred rules.
D. Religious art has greater value than the secular art of the Renaissance.
E. While Saint Paul always has a baldhead and along beard.
F. Several concentric, wavy lines represent the sky, while parallel lines represent water or the sea.
G. If there were no unemployment compensation, artists could be induced to accept such unstable works
H. A tower with a window indicates a village.
I. The artists of the early Renaissance broke with tradition at their own peril.

Yet, while Darwinian theory extends its domain, some of its cherished postulates are slipping, or atleast losing their generality. The “modern synthesis”, the contemporary version of Darwinism that has reigned for thirty years, took the model of adaptive gene substitution within local populations as an adequate account, by accumulation and extension, of life’s entire history. The model may work well in its empirical domain of minor, local, adaptive adjustment; populations of the moth Biston betularia did turn black, by substitution of a single gene, as a selected response for decreased visibility on trees that had been blackened by industrial soot. But is the origin of new species simply this process extended to more genes and greater effect? Are
larger evolutionary trends within major lineages just a further accumulation of sequential adaptive changes?
Many evolutionists (myself included) are beginning to challenge this synthesis and to assert the hierarchical view that different levels of evolutionary change often reflect different kinds of causes.
Minor adjustment within populations may be sequential and adaptive. But speciation may occur by major chromosomal changes that establish sterility with other species for reasons unrelated to adaptation. Evolutionary trends may represent a kind of higher-level selection upon essentially static species themselves, not the slow and steady alteration of a single large population through untold ages.
Before the modern synthesis, many biologists (see Bateson, 1922, in bibliography) expressed confusion and depression because the proposed mechanisms of evolution at different levels seemed contradictory enough to preclude a unified science. After the modern synthesis, the notion spread (amounting almost to a dogma among its less thoughtful lieutenants) that all evolution could be reduced to the basic Darwinism of gradual, adaptive change within local populations. I think that we are now pursuing a fruitful path between the anarchy of Batesons’s day and the restrictions of view imposed by the modern synthesis. The modern synthesis work in its appropriate arena, but the same Darwinian processes of mutation and selection may operate in strikingly different ways at higher domains in a hierarchy of evolutionary levels. I think that we may hope for uniformity of causal agents hence a single, general theory with a Darwinian core. But we must reckon, with a multiplicity of mechanisms, that preclude the explanation of higher level phenomena by the model of adaptive gene substitution favored for the lowest level.
At the basis of all this ferment lies nature’s irreducible complexity. Organisms are not billiard balls, propelled by simple and measurable external forces to predictable new positions on life’s pool table. Sufficiently complex systems have greater richness. Organisms have a history that constrains their future in myriad, subtle ways. Their complexity of form entails a host of functions incidental to whatever pressures of natural selection superintended the initial construction, their intricate and largely unknown pathways of embryonic development guarantee that simple inputs(minor changes)in timing, for example) may be translated into marked and surprising changes in output( the adult organism)
Charles Darwin chose to close his great book with a striking comparison that expresses this richness. He contrasted the simpler system of planetary motion, and its result of endless, static cycling, with the complexity of life and its wondrous and unpredictable change through the ages:
There us grandeur in this view of life, with its several powers, having been originally breathed into a few forms or into one; and that, whilst this planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful have been, and are being, evolved.
(27) According to the author, many contemporary evolutionists find the Darwinian synthesis
(A) Wholly unfounded
(B) Overly restrictive
(C) Essentially contradictory
(D) Sadly confusing
(E) Strikingly productive

(28) In asserting the complexity of nature, the author refers to billiard balls on life’s pool table
(A)  an illustration of the unpredictable changes of nature
(B)   an instance of confusion and mobility
(C)  an example of a relatively uncomplicated system
(D)  an application of the fixed law of gravity
(E)   an accurate model of genetic change.

(29)  It can be inferred that the paragraph immediately preceding this passage most likely discussed
(A)   the absence of a unified theory of evolution
(B)   individuals challenging the Darwinian  synthesis
(C)   the expansion of evolutionary theory into new realms
(D)   experimental methods of genetic substitution
(E)    the place of genetics in the study of natural history.

II  Darwin experienced a period of despondency caused by the thoughtlessness of his lieutenants

(A)    I only
(B)   III only
(C)   I and II only
(D)   I and III only
(E)    I,II, and III
