Medical Cannabis (NEW)#1001167 According to a peer reviewed study, medical cannabis led to "a statistically significant improvement" in quality of life, employment status, and in the reduction of the number of medications in those with Tourette Syndrome, in addition to improving comorbidities. 2. Fractional Reserve Banking (NEW)#1000796 Most people do not realize that some banks literally make money by giving loans without having a money deposit. The system is called fractional reserve banking and is used in most economies. It sounds as though it is safe because it says that banks have to keep a fraction of their deposits with the Reserve Bank. 3. Literature (NEW)#1000651 Literature allows us to move beyond the inevitable boundaries of our own lives and culture because it introduces us to people different from ourselves, places remote from our neighborhoods, and times other than our own. Reading makes us more aware of life's possibilities as well as its subtleties and ambiguities. 4. Information Technology (NEW)#1000497 The emergence of information technology has created new products, processes, and distribution systems. New products include the computer, the Internet, and digital TV; new processes include Internet banking, automated inventory control, and automated teller machines; and new distribution systems include cable and satellite TV. 5. Restaurant (NEW)#1000187 Page 3 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 The physical location of a restaurant in the competitive landscape of the city has long been known as a major factor in its likely success or failure. Once restaurants are established in such environments, they can do little about their location. All they can do is work to improve customer access to their premises. Restaurateurs often do this by engaging in battles with local authorities about car parking. 6. Fast Food (NEW)#1000154 Hundreds of millions of Americans eat fast food every day without giving it too much thought, unaware of the subtle and not so subtle ramifications of their purchases. They just grab their tray off the counter, find a table, take a seat, unwrap the paper, and dig in. The whole experience is transitory and soon forgotten. 7. Expression #1001181 The expression became important during the romantic movement with artwork expressing a definite feeling, as in the sublime or dramatic. The audience response was important because the artwork was intended to evoke an emotional response. This definition holds true today as artists look to connect with and evoke responses from their viewers. 8. Immune Vigilance #1000958 The problem is that increased immune vigilance has a side effect: allergies. Our speculation is that this is some kind of trade off. In the past you needed to resist some kind of pathogen, and the trade off or sacrifice you have to make is increased responsiveness to nonpathogenic allergens. So next time some of you get the springtime sniffles, blame your distant ancestor, the one with the heavy brow ridge. 9. Blue Whales #1000729 Blue whales are the largest living mammals. Though reports of maximum length and weight vary from one account to another, Antarctic blue whales are known to have Page 4 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 reached lengths to 100 feet and weights of over 150 tons before stocks were severely depleted by whaling operations. North Atlantic blue whales may be expected to reach lengths of 80 to 85 feet. 10. Greenhouse Gases #1000717 Human beings most certainly contribute to climate change by adding greenhouse gases to the atmosphere, but this is only part of the equation. Earth’s climate can change over time not only because of changes in the atmosphere but also because of interactions between the atmosphere and various geologic, chemical, biological, and geographic factors. 11. Tutors #1001467 Tutors play a crucial role in education by providing personalized instruction tailored to the needs of each student. They can help students with homework, test preparation, and clarifying difficult concepts. Tutors often employ various teaching strategies and techniques to engage students and enhance their learning experience. 12. Theatre #1001179 Experts discuss the significance of attending the theatre as a civic occasion, associated with the political and cultural achievements of Athens. Through archaeology and analyses of contemporary art forms such as decoration on pottery, a picture is built up of ancient Greek theatre. 13. Tortoise #1001177 The tortoise size and shell shapes vary depending on where they live. The shell is made of bone and is a dull brown colour. Their ribs, backbone and breast bone have become part of the shell, which is why you can never separate the tortoise from its shell. 14. Reserve Bank #1001020 Page 5 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 Most people do not realise that some banks literally make money by giving loans without having money on deposit. The system is called fractional reserve banking and is used in most economies. It sounds as though it is safe because it says that banks have to keep a fraction of their deposits with the Reserve Bank. 15. Conversation #1000136 Surprisingly, despite what appear to be infinite variations, all difficult conversations share a common structure. When you're caught up in the details and anxiety of a particularly difficult conversation, this structure is hard to see. But understanding that structure is essential to improve how you handle your most challenging conversations. 16. Pluto #1000008 Pluto lost its official status as a planet yesterday, when the International Astronomical Union downsized the solar system from 9 to 8 planets. Although there had been passionate debate at the IAU General Assembly Meeting in Prague about the definition of a planet and whether Pluto met the specifications the audience greeted the decision to exclude it with applause. 17. Yellow Tulip #1000006 How do we imagine the unimaginable? If we’re asked to think of an object say, a yellow tulip, a picture immediately forms in our mind. But what if we try to imagine a concept such as the square root of a negative number? 18. Annual Carbon Dioxide Emission #1000002 When countries assess their annual carbon dioxide emissions, they count up their cars and power stations, but bush fires are not included - presumably because they are deemed to be events beyond human control. In Australia, Victoria alone sees several hundred thousand hectares burn each year; in both 2004 and the present summer, the figure has been over 1 million hectares. Page 6 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 19. Department Stores #1001178 In this course, we will explore how such things as department stores, nationally advertised brand name goods, mass produced cars and suburbs transformed the American economy, society and politics. The course is organised both thematically and chronologically. Each period deals with a new development in the history of consumer culture. 20. Motivation to Fight #1001164 USA sexually teased its troops in the First World War to make them fight harder. Believing that sexually satisfied men could not be easily motivated, the aim of this teasing was to generate unmet sexual desire, which the War Department could leverage as motivation to fight. 21. The Colonial Institution #1000739 The colonial institution has a lengthy and illustrious history that dates back over 200 years. Many of the persons who have worked here are scientists themselves, such as Albert Einstein. He produced breakthroughs that made it simpler to produce and use electricity, allowing us to do things like switch on lights, cook dinner, and play video games on consoles. 22. Biodiversity #1000622 We understand the importance of supporting and restoring biodiversity, and we are teaming up with the world’s leading molecular biologists, technologists, conservation biologists, conservation organisations, ethicists, and thought leaders to call for 'intended consequences' to help us safely use all of the available tools that can provide the advantage we need to turn the tide on species loss. 23. Tourism #1000220 Page 7 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 Tourism is a challenging sector on which divides statistics since businesses serving tourists, also service local people. Therefore, it is not straightforward to estimate how much business sectors' revenues and how many jobs are due to tourist expenditures. 24. Online Shopping Environments #1000185 A unique characteristic of online shopping environments is that they allow vendors to create retail interfaces with highly interactive features. One desirable form of interactivity from a consumer perspective is the implementation of sophisticated tools to assist shoppers in their purchase decisions by customizing the electronic shopping environment to their individual preferences. 25. Hunter-gatherer #1000750 The life of a hunter gatherer is indeed, as Thomas Hobbes said of the state of nature, 'solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short'. In some respects, to be sure, wandering through the jungle bagging monkeys may be preferable to the hard slog of subsistence agriculture. 26. Protein #1000571 A single protein is a master regulator of mouse muscle function during aging, a new study finds. Blocking this protein increased muscle strength and endurance in old animals. It may play a role in age related muscle weakening in humans. 27. Australian English (Ver 1) #1000155 Australians do speak English; however, for some tourists and travellers, it can be difficult to understand the slang. Also, the links between Australian and American English were seen to a very tenuous. At least some colloquialisms in Australian English does not exist in other types of English. 28. Constitutional Protection #1000134 Page 8 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 The founding fathers established constitutional protections for the press because they understood that leaving the watchdog function to partisan politicians wouldn't necessarily serve the public interest; both sides have too many incentives to preserve the status quo and ignore problems that elude quick fixes. 29. Yellow Color #1000047 Yellow is considered the most optimistic color, yet surprisingly, people lose their tempers most often in yellow rooms, and babies cry more in them. The reason may be that yellow is the hardest color on the eye. On the other hand, it speeds metabolism and enhances concentration. Think of yellow legal pads and post it notes. 30. Alzheimer's Protein #1000591 Researchers have found a novel form of the Alzheimer's protein tau in the fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord. This form of tau -- known as MTBR tau -- indicates what stage of Alzheimer's a person is in and tracks with tangles of tau protein in the brain. 31. The Training of an Actor #1000160 The training of an actor is an intensive process that requires curiosity, courage, and commitment. You will learn how to prepare for rehearsal, how to rehearse, and how to use independent and proactive processes that inform you to do the best work possible for both stage and screen. 32. Social Animals #1000102 Dolphins, whales and porpoises are all social animals, but some species are more sociable than others. This depends on the environment because a species adopts the lifestyle most suitable for this. Among dolphins, forming groups makes it easier for them to find food, reproduce and gain knowledge. They are safer, too, because dolphins can communicate danger when there are threats around. 33. Domestication #1000042 Page 9 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 Domestication is an evolutionary, rather than a political development. They were more likely to survive and prosper in an alliance with humans than on their own. Humans provided the animals with food and protection, in exchange for which the animals provided the humans their milk and eggs and yes their flesh. 34. Botanic Gardens #1000030 Botanic gardens are scientific and cultural institutions established to collect, study, exchange, and display plants for research and for the education and enjoyment of the public. There are major botanic gardens in each capital city. Zoological parks and aquariums are primarily engaged in the breeding, preservation, study and display of native and exotic fauna in captivity. 35. Fast Radio Burst #1000106 First discovered in 2007, fast radio bursts continue to defy explanation. These cosmic chirps last a thousandth of a second. The characteristics of the radio pulses suggest that they came from galaxies billions of light years away. However, new works point to a much closer origin flaring stars within our own galaxy. 36. Moods #1000057 Moods may also have an effect on how information is processed, by influencing the extent to which judges rely on pre-existing, internal information, or focus on new, external information. Positive moods promote more holistic and top-down processing style, while negative moods recruit more stimulus-driven and bottom-up processing. 37. Pilot Whales #1001629 Mass strandings of whales are a recurring issue in Australia and New Zealand. In recent years, multiple events have highlighted the severity of this problem. For instance, in April 2024, around 160 pilot whales stranded on a Western Australian beach, prompting a significant rescue operation by marine biologists and wildlife officers. Page 10 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 38. Fiction #1001628 Variations kept the genre alive. From the mid 19th century onwards, when mass literacy grew, adventure became a popular subgenre of fiction. Although not exploited to its fullest, adventure has seen many changes over the years - from being constrained to stories of knights in armor to stories of high-tech espionage. 39. Food Waste #1001624 One of the complex agricultural problems is the issue of food waste. Food waste refers to the discarding of edible food at various stages of the food supply chain, from production to consumption. This not only represents a significant loss of resources but also has environmental implications, such as greenhouse gas emissions from decomposing food waste in landfills. 40. Urban Forests #1001623 Urban forests play a crucial role in promoting urban sustainability and resilience. They contribute to climate change mitigation by sequestering carbon dioxide through photosynthesis. Urban forests also help manage stormwater runoff by absorbing and filtering rainwater, reducing the risk of flooding. Furthermore, these green spaces provide social and psychological benefits, such as stress reduction and improved mental well- being. 41. Headaches #1001620 Individuals who suffer from concussions often experience moderate to severe headaches in the weeks following the injury. However, a recent study has discovered that a combination of two commonly used anti nausea medications, administered intravenously in the emergency room, may provide more effective relief for these headaches compared to a placebo. 42. Blood Pressure #1001614 Page 11 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 The correlation between elevated blood pressure levels and a multitude of health complications is widely acknowledged. However, recent studies have shed light on an equally concerning aspect. Researchers have discovered that these fluctuations in blood pressure can not only be detrimental to overall health but also act as a potential precursor to the development of dementia and vascular disease. 43. Importance of Research #1001556 At our institution, we recognize the importance of research in the humanities and social sciences. We are committed to advancing knowledge in these fields through rigorous research and analysis. Our research agenda is driven by the pursuit of new insights that can benefit society both locally and globally. We offer a wide range of programs in the humanities and social sciences. 44. Natural Environment #1001501 Climate change, deforestation, pollution, and overexploitation of natural resources are some of the major threats facing the natural environment. Addressing these challenges requires a comprehensive understanding of the complex interactions between humans and the natural environment, as well as a commitment to sustainable development and responsible environmental stewardship. 45. Rates of Depression #1001469 Rates of depression have been a growing concern in recent years, particularly among adolescents and adults. In the United States, it is estimated that 4.1 million adolescents aged 12 to 17 have experienced at least one major depressive episode. This indicates a rising trend in depression rates among adolescents. 46. William Shakespeare #1001468 William Shakespeare, the renowned English playwright and poet, is widely regarded as one of the greatest writers in the English language. Born in Stratford upon Avon, England, Page 12 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 around April 23, 1564, Shakespeare's works continue to captivate audiences with their profound insights into human nature and enduring literary brilliance. 47. Statistics #1001357 Statistics are indicators of change and allow meaningful comparisons to be made. While it may be an issue rather than the statistics as such that grabs people's attention, it should be recognized that it is the statistics that inform the issues. Statistical literacy, then, is the ability to accurately understand, interpret and evaluate the data that informs these issues. 48. Charitable Giving #1001285 Charitable giving has the power to transform lives and communities, providing support for those in need and promoting social justice. Donating time, money, or resources to charitable organizations can make a significant difference in the lives of others, while also promoting a sense of purpose and fulfillment. 49. Study of History #1001230 The study of history allows us to learn from past mistakes and successes, providing valuable insights into human behavior and societal trends. History provides us with a record of human experiences that can inform our decisions and actions in the present and future. By studying history, we can gain a deeper understanding of cultural diversity, social change, and political systems. 50. Choking #1001205 You ought to know what to do to help a person who is choking. First, you stand behind the choking victim and put your arms around his or her waist. Second, you make a fist and place the thumb side against the person’s stomach just above the navel, but below the ribs. 51. Antecedents of Theatre #1001204 Page 13 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 In addition to exploring the possible antecedents of theatre, scholars have also theorised about the motives that led people to develop theatre. Why did theatre develop, and why was it valued after it ceased to fulfill the function of ritual? Most answers fall back on theories about the human mind and basic human needs. 52. Bill #1001195 The bill calls for the establishment of the National Landslide Hazards Reduction Program within one year of becoming law. The program serves numerous functions, including to identify and understand landslide hazards and risks, reduce losses from landslides, protect communities at risk of landslides hazards, and improve communication and emergency preparedness. 53. Innovative Product #1001194 An innovative new product or service can give a firm a head start over its rivals, which can be difficult for a new entrant to overcome. If the new technology is also patented, then other firms cannot simply copy its design. It is legally protected. 54. Agricultural Problems #1001193 Agricultural problems due to climate change of normal weather, water depletion and the collapse of soil have become big problems in all parts of the world. Many are now focusing on ethics and family farming as a way to combat these issues. 55. Child Psychology #1001192 Within this free course, you will be introduced briefly to the discipline of child psychology and to theories and approaches that have been developed to help us understand and support children's lives by focusing on the individual children. Psychologists can assess changes in their child's abilities over time, including their physical, cognitive, social, and emotional development. Page 14 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 56. Political Problems #1001191 The course considers the ways in which thinkers have responded to the particular political problems of their day and the ways in which they contribute to a broader conversation about human goods and needs, justice, democracy, and the proper relationship of the individual to the state. 57. Root Network #1001190 The networks of roots that plants use to absorb water and nutrients can encompass a space larger than the part of the plant visible above ground. The nature of these roots systems can help plants adapt to challenging environments such as deserts. For instance, mesquite trees can develop tap roots capable of digging more than 50 yards deep to reach water. 58. Statistics #1001189 Statistics are indicators of change and allow meaningful comparisons to be made. While it may be the issues rather than the statistics as such that grab people's attention, it should be recognised that it is the statistics that informed the issues. Statistical literacy, then, is the ability to accurately understand, interpret and evaluate the data that inform these issues. 59. Urban Forests #1001188 A community's urban forest is an extension of its pride and community spirit. Trees enhance community economic stability by attracting businesses and tourists as people tend to linger and shop longer along tree-lined streets. Apartments and offices in wooded areas rent more quickly and businesses leasing office spaces in developments with trees reported higher productivity and fewer absences. 60. Enough Fluid #1001186 Page 15 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 Your body is nearly two-thirds water. And so it is really important that you consume enough fluid to stay hydrated and healthy. If you don't get enough fluid you may feel tired, get headaches, and not perform at your best. 61. Attendance #1001185 To some extent, attendance at cultural venues and events is influenced by a person's age and the composition of the household in which they live. For example, those people in households with dependent children were more likely to visit zoological parks and aquariums than people living in single person households. 62. Tutor #1001184 Your tutor helps you make the most of your time at university by giving you guidance and support along the way. All new students are allocated a personal tutor who will encourage you to get the most out of your course, direct you to other sources of support and help you achieve your goals. 63. Rates of Depression #1001183 At a time when stress levels are soaring, rates of depression are increasing and the gap between rich and poor is ever widening. We believe that giving can play a positive role in helping people to feel connected to those around them and generate a sense of purpose and hope. When we give, we feel valued, useful and happy. 64. William Shakespeare #1001182 380 years after his death, William Shakespeare remains the central author of the English- speaking world; he is the most quoted poet and the most regularly produced playwright - and now among the most popular screenwriters as well. Why is that, and who "is" he? Why do so many people think his writing is so great? What meanings did his plays have in his own time, and how do we read, speak, or listen to his words now? 65. Learner's Experience #1001174 Page 16 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 We seek to improve learner's experience of education at college and help them to aspire, achieve and progress. We must embed equality and diversity in everything we do, both as a provider and an employer. We hope to prepare our students for work, higher education and citizenship by equipping our staff with the skills to meet this agenda. 66. New Textbook #1001172 This is a new, accessible and engaging textbook written by academics who also work as consultants with organisations undergoing change. It offers a unique combination of rigorous theoretical exploration together with practical insights from working with those who are responsible for managing change. 67. Baby Hearing #1001165 Most babies start developing their hearing while still in the womb, prompting some hopeful parents t–o play classical music to their pregnant bellies. Some research even suggests that infants are listening to adult speech as early as 10 weeks before birth, gathering the basic building blocks of their family's native tongue. 68. Abortions #1001163 The Texas law prohibiting abortion after detectable embryonic cardiac activity was associated with a decrease in state abortions and an increase in residents obtaining out- of-state abortions. The proportion of out-of-state abortions obtained at 12 weeks increased significantly from 17.1% to 31%. 69. Stroke Risk #1001162 People in their 20s and 30s who drink moderate to heavy amounts of alcohol may be more likely to have a stroke as young adults than people who drink low amounts or no alcohol, according to a study. The risk of stroke increased the more years people reported moderate or heavy drinking. Page 17 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 70. Global Changes #1001017 Globalisation refers to a set of changes rather than a single change. Many of these changes are social, cultural and political rather than purely economic, and one of the main drivers in addition to the global marketplace is the communication revolution. 71. Property Right #1001014 A common way of permitting others to use an intellectual property right is to give express permission for it. This can be done in return for financial remuneration. In such cases, the holder of an intellectual property right is often referred to as granting a licence to use what the holder otherwise has exclusive rights to, subject to certain conditions. 72. Home Fencing #1001013 The benefits of home fencing are not only as a barrier between the area of the house and the surrounding environment. In simple words, a fence is a formation or structure that is above the ground and is generally vertical, with the intention of limiting an area or area, protecting everything inside the fence, from threatening danger from outside the fence. 73. Flash Floods #1001011 Many floods take hours to come into full effect so they provide people with time to evacuate safely while salvaging as many of their valuable possessions as they can. Sometimes, however, floods generate in minutes and give little warning to their formation. These are known as flash floods, and can be extremely dangerous. Flash floods are the top one weather-related cause of death in the United States. 74. Supermassive Black Hole #1001009 Astronomers announced that they have finally assembled an image of the supermassive black hole at the centre of our galaxy. This image shows a bright ring surrounding the Page 18 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 darkness, the telltale sign of the shadow of the black hole. It reveals the turbulent, twisting region immediately surrounding the black hole in new detail. 75. Early Stages of Painting #1000991 We can see from the X rays that at an early stage of painting, a window was painted in at the left of the portrait. It seems that there may have been two windows in the initial design for the portrait or that the window was moved at an early stage. 76. Antarctic #1000862 The world's fifth largest continent: Antarctica is almost entirely covered by ice 2000 meters thick. The area sustains varied wildlife including seals, wales, and penguins. The Antarctic treaty signed in 1959 and enforced since In 1961 provides for international governance of Antarctica. 77. Paraphrasing #1000755 We define paraphrasing as putting a passage from an author into your own words. However, what are your own words? How different must your paraphrase be from the original? The answer is it should be considerably different. The whole point of paraphrasing is to show you have read and understood another person's ideas and can summarize them in your own writing style rather than borrowing their phrases. If you just change a few words or add some bits of your own to an otherwise reproduced passage, you will probably be penalized for plagiarism. You should aim to condense and simplify a writer's ideas and describe them using different sentence structures and expressions. 78. Tissues and Organs #1000749 Tissues are grouped together in the body to form organs. These include the brain, heart, lungs, kidneys, and liver. Each body organ has a specific shape and is made up of different types of tissue that work together. For example, the heart consists mainly of a Page 19 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 specialized type of muscle tissue, which contracts rhythmically to provide the heart's pumping action. 79. Sandra Lousada #1000638 London's National Portrait Gallery is currently celebrating the fifty-year career of photographer Sandra Lousada. The twenty one portraits on display depict key figures in literature, film, and fashion from the early 1960s. Subsequent to the acquisition of forty portraits by Lousada, the display at The National Portrait Gallery highlights shots taken between 1960 and 1964, many of which feature in Lousada's book Public Faces Private Places (2008). Formal commissioned portraits are shown alongside behind the scenes photographs taken on films sets and unguarded portraits of sitters captured at home. 80. Selective History #1000635 History is selective. What history books tell us about the past is not everything that happened, but what historians have selected. They cannot put in everything: choices have to be made. Choices must similarly be made about which aspects of the past should be formally taught to the next generation in the shape of school history lessons. 81. Australian Mining Industry #1000513 Australia has one of the world's most important mining industries. It is a major exporter of coal, iron ore, gold, and copper and is self sufficient in all minerals and bar petroleum. Since the first discoveries, the coal in 1798, mineral production has risen every year in the decade, and in 1992 it doubled. 82. A World Without Light #1000466 Have you ever pictured a world without light? Just think how much we rely on man made light sources in our life. Without engineers, we wouldn't be able to live the way we do. No street lights, no TV, no computer displays, no houselights engineers design and build all these things. Page 20 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 83. Australian English (V2) #1000464 Australians speak English of course. But for many tourists and even some locals, Australian English has only tenuous links with the mother tongue. Our speech is peppered with words and phrases whose arcane meanings are understood only by the native speaker. It is these colorful colloquialisms that Australian slang is yet to truly explain. 84. Lincoln #1000463 Lincoln’s apparently radical change of mind about his war power to emancipate slaves was caused by the escalating scope of the war, which convinced him that any measure to weaken the Confederacy and strengthen the Union war effort was justifiable as a military necessity. 85. Actor #1000224 Training to become an actor is an intensive process which requires curiosity, courage and commitment. You'll learn how to prepare for rehearsal, how to rehearse and how to use independent and proactive processes to achieve your best work possible for stage and screen. 86. Shrimp Farmers #1000214 Shrimp farmers used to hold animals in nursery ponds for 30 to 60 days; now they try to move them into grown out ponds in less than 30 days. This reduces stress on the animals and dramatically increases survival in the grow out ponds. Many farms that abandoned nursery ponds have gone back to them, and the results have been surprisingly positive. They are using the old, uncovered, earthen, nursery ponds. 87. Elephant #1000211 The elephant is the largest living land mammal. During evolution, its skeleton has greatly altered from the usual mammal, design for two main reasons. One is to cope with the Page 21 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 great weight of huge grinding cheek teeth and elongated tusk teeth, making the skull particularly massive. The other is to support the enormous bulk of such a huge body. 88. Neighbors #1000196 Imagine living all your life as the only family on your street. Then, one morning, you open the front door and discover houses all around you. You see neighbors tending their gardens and children walking to school. Where did all the people come from? What if the answer turned out to be that they had always been there, you just hadn't seen them? 89. Republican Field #1000163 While the Republican field is packed with male candidates, so far, some of the sharpest Clinton critics have come from women. Democrats successfully campaigned on an alleged GOP perpetrated "war on women" in 2012 but faltered in 2014 when they tried the same tactic. With Hillary Clinton as the likely Democratic nominee, the fight for women voters will be a central part of the 2016 campaign. 90. Russia #1000150 Long isolated from Western Europe, Russia grew up without participating in shared developments like the Reformation. Russians took pride in their unique culture and found dubious value in foreign ideals. As a result, Russia is the most unusual member of the European family, if indeed it can be considered one at all. This question is still hotly debated, particularly amongst Russians. 91. Beauty Contests #1000130 Beauty contests, whether it's Miss Universe or Miss Teen International, are demeaning to women and out of sync with the times. Opponents say that they are nothing more than symbols of decline. Since Australians Jennifer Hawkins and Lauryn Eagle were crowned Page 22 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 Miss Universe and Miss Teen International respectively, there has been a dramatic increase in interest in beauty pageants in this country. 92. University Study #1000123 A university is not a business. More precisely, a not for profit college or university is significantly different than a for profit business. A university has no owners; it is a public trust. Without owners, it has no one to pay dividends to and no one for whom it must maximize its profits. A business has a single overriding goal: the maximization of return for the owners. A university has a multiplicity of goals: to foster learning, to create knowledge, and to serve its community. 93. The Insult and Criticism #1000105 The insult and criticism were not unexpected. What was surprising was people's enthusiasm for the competition. Thousands have participated in the discussion. 94. Shakespeare #1000043 A young man from a small provincial town a man without independent wealth, without powerful family connections and without a university education moved to London in the late 1580s and, in a remarkably short time, became the greatest playwright not of his age alone but of all time. How did Shakespeare become Shakespeare? 95. Food #1000015 Food is one of the most important things you'll ever buy. And yet most people never bother to think about their food and where it comes from. People spend a lot more time worrying about what kind of blue jeans to wear, what kind of video games to play, and what kind of computers to buy. 96. Blue Food #1000004 Page 23 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 While blue is one of the most popular colours, it is one of the least appetizing. Blue food is rare in nature. Food researchers say that when humans searched for food, they learned to avoid toxic or spoiled objects, which were often blue, black or purple. When food dyed blue is served to study objects, they lose appetite. Page 24 of 421 Prediction File – PTE Academic 23rd September – 29th September 2024 Repeat Sentence 1.
