Q31:


Which of the following most logically completes the argument below?



laceName>DavisonlaceName> laceType>RiverlaceType> farmers are currently deciding between planting winter wheat this fall or spring wheat next spring.  Winter wheat and spring wheat are usually about equally profitable.  Because of new government restrictions on the use of laceName>DavisonlaceName> laceType>RiverlaceType> water for irrigation, per acre yields for winter wheat, though not for spring wheat, would be much lower than average.  Therefore, planting spring wheat will be more profitable than planting winter wheat, since‗‗‗‗‗‗.




  • the smaller-than-average size of a winter wheat harvest this year would not be compensated for by higher winter wheat prices 虽然是答案，但让人不能理解


  • new crops of spring wheat must be planted earlier than the time at which standing crops of winter wheat are ready to be harvested

  • the spring wheat that farmers in the Davison River region plant is well adapted to the soil of the region  开始选的是这个答案，后来发现是无关选项


  • spring wheat has uses that are different from those of winter wheat

  • planting spring wheat is more profitable than planting certain other crops, such as rye

    • 有没有哪位好心人帮我讲讲啊

    B, C, D, E are all irrelevant, so only A is left.

    The question is asking for an evidence that can support the conclusion.  This is a variation of assumption question.  You can try deny test.

    Deny A, we get "the smaller-than-average size of a winter wheat harvest this year would be compensated for by higher winter wheat prices".  If so, the conclusion "planting spring wheat will be more profitable than planting winter wheat" will fall apart.  Therefore, A is an necessary evidence -- A is the best answer.

    请问这位好心人，Compensated for by higher winter wheat prices 中的 higher winter wheat price 是什么意思啊， 我当时的理解是后来 winter wheat 所卖的价格，但是后来觉得如果是当时为了plant 而花的买 winter wheat price

    原文意思：冬麦和春麦收益常差不多。新政府的规定使冬麦产量比春麦低。所以种春麦收益好点（指新政府规定后）。原因。。。（实质是找个支持结论的理由）。

    答案：因为结论是比较两种麦的收益。其他选项都和两者的收益无关。只有A。A说冬麦卖的价格高点，但顶不了产量的减少。春麦的收益还是要好点。

    建议：对原文意思的理解，要以原文为依托，不能猜，特别是逻辑题。冬麦价格就是冬麦价格，不是种子。

    太感谢lawyer1, 我终于明白了这个意思， 看来是我的理解能力还有待提高

    it is so obvious, the answer is "A". why? consider this, the question said plaining winter wheat and spring wheat are equally profitable. so,  winter wheat price * winter wheat yield=spring wheat price * spring wheat yeild. if the winter wheat yield falls, the higher price should make up the losses,  however, when higher price cannot compensate the loss of yield, than plaining spring wheat will be profitable.

    I agree that B is irrelevant, but what do we get if we deny B?

    原來這題的邏輯觀念是這樣子的唷!! 我了解了!! 感謝各位!!

    new crops of spring wheat must be planted earlier(->later) than the time at which standing crops of winter wheat are ready to be harvested


    right? cannot affect the conclusion

    profitable=per acre yields *wheat prices
    作者: dream4harvard    时间: 2005-9-6 17:59

    The logic point ETS often intends to evaluate the testers remains, profits = volume X unit price. Of course, the profit does not contain the meaning of the difference between the revenue and cost. When handling such types of questions, try to remove the NOT, and check whether it constitutes a weakening effect. Support A.

    作者: danfulee    时间: 2006-1-6 17:12

    最明显是选a.


    怎么DENY答案C呢？题目中有一个条件说的是 new government restrictions on the use of laceName w:st="on">DavisonlaceName> laceType w:st="on">RiverlaceType> water for irrigation,说明限制对于winter wheat的产量影响较大。那么选项C中说spring wheat更适应soil，所以restriciton on water的影响会比较小。though not for spring wheat，是什么意思？是说restrictions not for spring wheat还是per acre yields for winter wheat，有人解释一下语法吗？


    多谢！

    为什么说是assumption题型的变体啊？是因为问原因吗？还是有其他什么特征？

    还有哪些也是变体啊？

    B是必须成立的assumption啊，为什么不选B？
    作者: amysarmy    时间: 2006-11-7 16:46

    我不是NN,插一句话.个人理解..

    这个题目好像就是传说中的"not+weaken"题了.

    把A中的not捂住不看.就变成了."今年小产量的冬麦将会被明年冬麦更高的卖出价所补偿了".那样当然就可以种冬麦了..这样就变成了对原文的削弱了..

    所以选A咯..

    这道题我倒是明白，但是profitalble真的是不包括cost么？。。哪位NN来解答一下
    作者: benyneb    时间: 2007-9-13 12:03

    呵呵看到题干的时候我就想好答案了.结果没我的答案...

    如果选项里面有说春麦对灌溉用水比较少. 也可以作为答案.....

    以下是引用lawyer_1在2004-8-2 21:28:00的发言：

    原文意思：冬麦和春麦收益常差不多。新政府的规定使冬麦产量比春麦低。所以种春麦收益好点（指新政府规定后）。原因。。。（实质是找个支持结论的理由）。

    答案：因为结论是比较两种麦的收益。其他选项都和两者的收益无关。只有A。A说冬麦卖的价格高点，但顶不了产量的减少。春麦的收益还是要好点。

    建议：对原文意思的理解，要以原文为依托，不能猜，特别是逻辑题。冬麦价格就是冬麦价格，不是种子。

    看了第三遍终于和LAWYER的理解达到了一致的程度，能问问lawyer是做什么的

    题目刚开始说的冬麦和夏麦收益相当在文中起什么作用？既然收益相当为什么后面还讨论谁收益更高？

    个人觉得这刚开始说收益相当是个背景,为了引出后面说的政府政策对两个收益的影响,在做题的时候其实跟这个没有关系,可以不看. 或许这个也是ets混淆视听的手段，如果题目写的太短，大家都明白了，他的任务不就是没有完成，呵呵。。。

    Conventionally, Winter wheat and spring wheat are usually about equally profitable, and the profitability is depends on both price * quantity

    Provided that the Government impose restriction on the usage of the irrigation system, the productivity of the winter wheat will greatly suffer, and the price effect is not enough to compensate. Total profitability of winter wheat would drop. Consequently, farmer will choose the other one.
