Analytical Reasoning Question No. 48
Two-way roads exist among the following cities surrounding a mountain area:
Between F and G Between F and H Between H and J
Between J and L Between J and U Between L and I Between I and K
There is also a one-way road between city I and city G; the permitted direction of travel is from I to G.
None of these roads intersect each other except at the cities.
There are no other cities or roads in the vicinity. Bicycles must follow the direction established for general traffic on roads.
1. To bicycle from K to G by road, it is necessary to go to or through city
(A) F (B) I (C) J (D) L (E) U
2. If a rock slide temporarily makes the road between H and J impassable, then in order to reach F by road from U, a bicyclist would have to go to or through a total of how many other cities besides F and U ?
(A) 2 (B) 3 (C) 4 (D) 5 (E) 6
3. If a bridge on the road between F and H is washed out, making the road impassable, a bicyclist would NOT be able to go by road from
(A) G to F (B) G to K (C) I to F (D) I to K (E) J to F
4. If a rock slide blocks a lane of the road from J to L, with the result that travel on the road can go only one way, from J to L, it will still be possible to go on a bicycle by road from I to:
(A) G and K but impossible to go to F, H, J, L, or U
(B) G, K, and L but impossible to go to F, H, J, or U
(C) F, G, H, and L but impossible to go to K, J, or U
(D) F, H, J, K, and L but impossible to go to G or U
(E) F, G, H, J, K, L, and U
5. Assume that one lane of the road from H to J is closed for repairs, with the result that travel on the road can go only one way, from J to H. It will then be possible to travel by road on a bicycle among any of the cities F, G, H, I, J, K, L, and U among which such travel was possible before the closing, if which of the following one-way temporary roads is constructed?
(A) From F to U (B) From I to J (C) From K to J
(D) From K to U (E) From L to I
6. If F is lower and L is higher on the mountain than any of the other cities in the vicinity and G, I, and J are all at the same altitude, the distance by road going from U to K will be shortened by building a two-way road along a level straight line between
(A) J and G (B) J and F (C) I and F (D) I and J (E) L and G
