Environmentalist: The commissioner of the Fish and Game Authority would have the public believe that increases in the number of marine fish caught demonstrate that this resource is no longer endangered. This is a specious argument, as unsound as it would be to assert that the ever-increasing rate at which rain forests are being cut down demonstrates a lack of danger to that resource. The real cause of the increased fish-catch is a greater efficiency in using technologies that deplete resources.

The environmentalist's statements, if true, best support which of the following as a conclusion?

正确答案: E

[求助]大全-15-6 and 大全-15-12



6.   Advertisement: For sinus pain, three out of four hospitals give their patients Novex. So when you want the most effective painkiller for sinus pain, Novex is the one to choose.



Which of the following, if true, most seriously undermines the advertisement’s argument?



(A) Some competing brands of painkillers are intended to reduce other kinds of pain in addition to sinus pain.



(B) Many hospitals that do not usually use Novex will do so for those patients who cannot tolerate the drug the hospitals usually use.



(C) Many drug manufacturers increase sales of their products to hospitals by selling these products to the hospitals at the lowest price the manufacturers can afford.



(D) Unlike some competing brands of painkillers, Novex is available from pharmacies without a doctor’s prescription.(D)



(E) In clinical trials Novex has been found more effective than competing brands of painkillers that have been on the market longer than Novex.






答案是:d



请问b 为什么错,d的from pharmacies without a doctor’s prescription 跟hospital 有关吗?

12.   The environmentalist’s statements, if true, best support which of the following as a conclusion?



(A) The use of technology is the reason for the increasing encroachment of people on nature.



(B) It is possible to determine how many fish are in the sea in some way other than by catching fish.



(C) The proportion of marine fish that are caught is as high as the proportion of rain-forest trees that are cut down each year.



(D) Modern technologies waste resources by catching inedible fish.(E)



(E) Marine fish continue to be an endangered resource.



答案是e



请问这题是conclusion (infer) 题型吗?



如果是的话,Environmentalist只有说This is a specious argument 这样就代表Marine fish continue to be an endangered resource吗?



答案A错在哪呢?是因为重点是 efficiency 而不是technology 吗?


谢谢大家喔!

题6:

该题要你削弱, 我们就要找到它的削弱点---most effective painkiller. 可能医生选择它的原因并不是它最有效而是另有缘由. 答案D就给了另外一个理由, NOVEX不是处方药. 非处方药是在医院以外的地方都能买得到的. 说明它们的安全性.

答案B是指不太用NOVEX的医院在病人用他们医院的药还不成的时候才用NOVEX. 这不支持了NOVEX是most effective painkiller了吗?

题12:

根据题意: 环境学家是想着法去否定commissioner关于鱼类数量受到威胁的说法. 他们用了雨林, 又解释了高科技捕鱼捕得多来support他们的观点. 起目的就是要说, 鱼受到了威胁. 至于选项A, techonolgy, efficiency都是噱头.

谢谢版主,对不起,可是我还是不太懂

第6题写错了,我是要问c为什么不对?

不管NOVEX是不是处方药,医生要开药就要处方啊?d只是说这个要不用医生处方也买的到,跟医院的医生用要有什么关系么?

感觉c是找了一个他因,因为医生可以比较便宜的拿到药,所以他们开很多这个药??

第12题

那就是说,这题是问环境保护学家想要支持的重点啰?

因为我认为如果光从字面上,有点看不出来于是一直再受到威胁的?还是看得出来吗??

题6: C是指药厂卖药给医院的价是他们所能承受的最低价. 也就是说他们的profit很低, 以至于只cover了cost(题外话). 但这并等于这个药就便宜了. C项是个不相关项. 因为NOVEX是非处方药, 所以很容易得到. 这就是一个他因.

题12: 环境学家通过反驳一个观点来陈述自己的观点. 建议多读两遍, 体会题意. 尤其注意一些词句, 如, "This is a specious argument"等.

12题第一感觉就选了E。但是回过头又觉得A好像也没错到哪里。毕竟最后一句话也提到了The real cause of the increased fish-catch is a greater efficiency in using technologies that deplete resources.

盼赐教!

6. I think the correct answer should be B

but someone said in OG11 the answer is C. I am not sure about it. Can someone verify it?

12. A is not correct because it is too general. hence, it is irrelevant.

mbz:我也觉得15-6是B好,不过OG11的答案确实是C

把OG的解释敲在你那个链接里了,大家再来讨论下说服偶吧。。。

kathy8446

now I post your discussion in this link so that everyone can continue:

以下是引用kathy8446在2006-7-15 1:05:00的发言:

把OG11的解释敲进来,大家再讨论下吧!(我还是没被convince。。。)

Situation: An advertisement claims that Novex is the most effective painkiller for sinus pain since three out of four hospitals use it for patients.

Reasoning: What point undermines the advertisement's claim? The argument for Novex's effectiveness as a painkiller is based upon the hospitals' usage. Consider what might be driving the hospitals' choice of medications to administer. Three out of four hospitals might be giving their patients Novex not because it is the most effective painkiller for sinus pain, but because it is inexpensive. If this is the case, the argument is seriously undermined.

A. Other kinds of pain are irrelevant to the argument since the claim is only about sinus pain.

B. This piont does not undermine the advertisement's claim.

C. Correct. This statement properly identifies a factor that could well undermine the advertisement's claim: the hospitals may be using this medication because it is the most cost effective for them.

D. Novex's nonprescription formula is not relevant to the claim.

E. This point strengthens rather than weakens, the claim.

D已经明确说处方非处方无关了,看来以前大家有点想太多了。。。

另外B/C之间还是很难定夺。C说了厂家会低价把药卖给医院,但是它用的是many drug manufacturers,并没有具体到Novex。那么既然Novex价格低,其他药的价格也可以降低,并不能看出Novex相对其他药的价格优势。这个证据要是用来证明“医院卖的药比外面药方卖的便宜”还有点用处。

而B,还是我觉得相对最好的答案。它说tolerate the drug the hospitals usually use,我理解为:可能常用的药药性很烈,病人不能忍受,只好换用Novex。(要是理解成,常用的药效果不够,病人还是疼,只好换用Novex,那就是加强了。但是那样的话是不是应该说tolerate the sinus pain?)不过这里的drugs usually used似乎又有点矛盾,毕竟从题干看来,3/4的想表达的意思就是Novex是usually used drug。另外B选项的解释,什么does not undermine,等于没说,让我很不爽!

怎么办?OG的答案是圣旨吗?谁来说服我啊?

Glad that someone has the same thinking as I do. Welcome everyone for your input.

是非处方药,就能推出医院卖得多吗?医院开出的反而可能是处方药。看题干,3 out of 4 hospitals give patients Novex。D说是N是非处方药,其实无关。
