If the ivory trade continues, experts believe, the elephant will soon become extinct in Africa, because poaching is rife in many areas. A total ban on ivory trading would probably prevent the extinction. However, the country of Zimbabwe—which has virtually eliminated poaching within its borders and which relies on income from carefully culling elephant herds that threaten to become too big—objects to such a ban. Zimbabwe holds that the problem lies not with the ivory trade but with the conservation policies of other countries.

Which one of the following principles forms a logical basis for Zimbabwe’s objection to a ban?

(A) International measures to correct a problem should not adversely affect countries that are not responsible for the problem.

(B) Freedom of trade is not a right but a consequence of agreements among nations.

(C) Respecting a country’s sovereignty is more important than preventing the extinction of a species.

(D) Prohibitions affecting several countries should be enforced by a supranational agency.

Local phone companies have monopolies on phone service within their areas. Cable television can be transmitted via the wires that are already in place and owned by the phone companies. Cable television companies argue that if the telephone companies were to offer cable service, these telephone companies would have an unfair advantage, because their cable transmissions could be subsidized by the profits of their monopolies on phone service.

Which of the following, if true, would ease the cable companies’ fear of unfair competition?

(A) In order to use existing telephone wire, telephone companies would need to modernize their operations, a process so expensive it would virtually wipe out all profit from their monopoly for the foreseeable future.

(B) If a phone company were to offer cable service within a particular area, it would have a monopoly within that area.

(C) The cost of television service, whether provided by cable or telephone companies, scales; that is, the total cost of transmission rises only marginally as more homes are added to the network.

(D) Cable programming that offers more channels is already available through satellite dish, but the initial cost of the dish is extremely high.
