A prominent investor who holds a large stake in the Burton Tool company has recently claimed that
the company is mismanaged, citing as evidence the company’s failure to slow production in response to a recent rise in its inventory of finished products. It is doubtful whether an investor’s sniping at management can ever be anything other than counterproductive, but in this case it is clearly not justified. It is true that an increased inventory of finished products often indicates that production is outstripping demand, but in Burton’s case it indicates no such thing. Rather, the increase in inventory is entirely attributable to products that have already been assigned to orders received from customers. In the argument given, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles? A, the first states the position that the argument as a whole opposes; the second provides evidence to undermine the support for the position being opposed; B, the first states the position that the argument as a whole opposes; the second is evidence that has been used to support the position being opposed.
C, the first states the position that the argument as a whole opposes; the second states the conclusion of the argument as a whole; D, The first is evidence that has been used to support a position that the argument as a whole opposes; the second provides information to undermine the force of that evidence;
E, The first is evidence that has been used to support a position that the argument as a whole opposes; the second states the conclusion of the argument as a whole 没有答案，我选的C Press secretary: Our critics claim that the President’s recent highway project cancellations（取消，注销，作废） demonstrate a vindictive（恶意的） desire to punish legislative districts controlled by opposition parties. They offer as evidence the fact that 90% of the projects cancelled were in such districts. But all of the cancelled projects had been identified as wasteful in a report written by respected nonpartisan auditors. So the President’s choice was clearly motivated by sound budgetary policy, not partisan（党派的） politics. Which of the following is an assumption on which the press secretary’s argument depends? A. Canceling highway projects was not the only way for the President to punish legislative districts controlled by opposition parties. B. The scheduled highway projects identified as wasteful in the report were not mostly projects in districts controlled by the President’s party. C. The number of projects cancelled was a significant proportion of all the highway projects that were to be undertaken by the government in the near future. D. (Omitted) E. Reports by nonpartisan auditors are not generally regarded by the opposition parties as a source of objective assessment of government projects. 我选的B Which of the following most logically completes the passage Appendicitis (inflammation of the appendix) is potentially fatal; consequently, patients with symptoms strongly suggesting appendicitis almost always have their appendix removed. The appropriate surgery is low-risk but performed unnecessarily in about 20 percent of all cases. A newly developed internal scan for appendicitis is highly accurate, producing two misdiagnoses for every 98 correct diagnoses. Clearly, using this test, doctors can largely avoid unnecessary removals of the appendix without, however, performing any fewer necessary ones than before, since________________
a: the patients who are correctly diagnosed with this test as not having appendicitis invariably having medical conditions that are much less serious than appendicitis b the misdiagnoses produced by this test are always instances of attributing appendicitis to someone who does not, in fact, have it c: all of the patients who are diagnosed with this test as having appendicitis do, in fact, have appendicitis d: every patient who is diagnosed with this test as having appendicitis has more than one of the symptoms generally associated with appendicitis e :the only patients who are misdiagnosed using this test are patients who lack one or more of the symptoms that are generally associated with appendicitis 我不知道选什么，NN帮忙讲讲吧～ A recent poll found that over 80 percent of the residents of Nalmed Province favored a massive expansion of the commuter rail system as a means of significantly easing congestion on the province's highways and were willing to help pay for the expansion through an increase in their taxes. nevertheless, the poll results indicate that expansion of the rail system, if successfully completed, would be unlikely to achieve its goal of easing congestion, because______ A. most people in favor of expanding the rail system reported less congestion during their highway commute as the primary benefit they would experience B of the less than 20 percent of residents not counted as favoring the expansion, about half claimed to have no opinion one way or the other C the twice-daily periods of peak congestion caused by people commuting in cars have grown from about an hour each to almost two and a half hours each in the past 20 years D expanding the commuter rail system will require the construction of dozens of miles of new railed E the proposed expansion to commuter rail system will make it possible for some people who both live and work at suburban locations to commute by rail. 我还是不知道选什么～ 路过的NN帮个忙，还有3天就要考试了，这几道题不知道选什么，选了也不知道对不对，大家帮忙看看这几道题。 谢谢啦～
