10. In light of the numerous works published on King Philip II of Spain, no one could justifiably
complain that Philip has been neglected by historians.
(1) Despite the many works about King Philip II that have been published, historians have
neglected to explain why the king was so unpopular.
(2) It would be unreasonable to claim that historians have not paid enough attention to King
Philip II, given the large number of works about the king that have been published.
(3) Historians have complained that many of the works published about King Philip II are
unjustifiably harsh in their criticism of the king.
(4) The writings of King Philip II that have been published do not shed much light on the
questions that most interest historians.
11. The purpose of the laws governing political contributions is to limit the amount of influence
that can be wielded by any individual contributor.
(1) In order to prevent any single contributor from exerting too much influence, there are
laws that regulate political contributions.
(2) Despite the laws controlling political contributions, some contributors wield much more
influence than others.
(3) Influential politicians are opposed to laws limiting the amount that individuals can
contribute.
(4) The laws governing political contributions have had only limited success in controlling
the influence exerted by individual contributors.
12. In spite of a moratorium worldwide on commercial whaling, the decimation of the great
whales persists.
(1) Even though there is an international agreement to stop the hunting of whales, large
numbers of these animals are still being killed.
(2) Despite the fact that whales are no longer being hunted for commercial purposes, the
number of whales in the world is not increasing.
(3) Despite the opposition of commercial whalers, there is now an international moratorium
on whale hunting.
(4) Even though there have been many attempts to impose a moratorium on the killing of
whales, commercial whaling persists.
