GWD-12-Q11:

In general, jobs are harder to get in times of economic recession because many businesses cut back operations.  However, any future recessions in Vargonia will probably not reduce the availability of teaching jobs at government-funded schools.  This is because Vargonia has just introduced a legal requirement that education in government-funded schools be available, free of charge, to all Vargonian children regardless of the state of the economy, and that current student-teacher ratios not be exceeded.

Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument?

1. The current student-teacher ratio at Vargonia’s government-funded schools is higher than it was during the most recent period of economic recession.
   
   
   
   
   
   
2. During recent periods when the Vargonian economy has been strong, almost 25 percent of Vargonian children have attended privately funded schools, many of which charge substantial fees.
   
   
   
   
   
3. Nearly 20 percent more teachers are currently employed in Vargonia’s government-funded schools than had been employed in those schools in the period before the last economic recession.
   
   
   
   
4. Teachers in Vargonia’s government-funded schools are well paid relative to teachers in most privately funded schools in Vargonia, many of which rely heavily on part-time teachers.
   
   

   
   

5. During the last economic recession in Vargonia, the government permanently closed a number of the schools that it had funded.
   
   

   Answer:B

A.错,HIGHER不等于超过政府规定的RATIO;

B.正确.

C.错,20% MORE说明不了什么问题;

D.错,PAY高低与ARGUMENT无关;

E.错,WEAKEN.

这道题还是不懂 NN能否翻译一下

我的理解：在经济不景气的情况下 Vargonia不会减少公立学校的教师工作 原因为法律要求所有这个城市的学生都是公费上学，另一个原因法律还要求学生老师的流动率不会被超过。

是不是我理解有问题 就是不明白答案怎么选出来的

我怎么还觉得A是削弱阿
