标题: 每天一道CR题，欢迎大家来讨论
这道题的题干很简单易懂，除了BD两项其他的选项都有点傻白甜，很容易排除，但是现在的情况是：我觉得BD都是对的，有点棘手。首先B选项相当于提供给了我们一个摈弃其他可能性的原始状态，可就是我们在做物理化学实验的时候的一个空白对照组的感觉。
而D选项给我们一个因果很明确的逻辑链，即----发出了动作就一定会有影响！现在很纠结，欢迎大家都来讨论一下，我每天都会贴一个自己觉得很难解释的题，希望能坚持下去！！

D，感觉跟B没有关系

类比推理
因为：language center的损坏和linguistic ability is impaired 有正相关。
所以：language center的损害导致了交流能力受到影响。

正确答案要说相关性，没说相关性的话要解释为什么linguistic ability受到影响。

A：无关。没说相关性，也没解释为什么
B：是削弱，
C：没有说了相关性，
D：如果语言区在左边，那么左脑中风会会影响至少一个语言区。注意题目中说了中风会损坏语言区从而导致交流能力受影响。所以这个选项就说了，做脑中风后影响语言区，然后肯定导致交流能力受影响。也就是说，中风至少影响一个语言区，才能影响交流能力。
E：无关

用排除法比较好做。

这题B不对的原因其实是题干中therefore后前提条件是without impairment，而B讨论的却是普通状态下的一种结论方向！

这题不是类比推理，基本就没有什么比较存在。
这问题前提和结论之间有一个明显的gap:
左脑中风但语言能力没有受损--->该病患语言中心在右脑

左脑中风但语言能力没有受损--->左脑的语言中心受到损伤（左边不能用了）--->该病患语言中心在右脑(人就左右两边脑，左边不能用就必然用右边)

Gap：左脑的语言中心受到损伤（左边不能用了）

这个是正确的B错误的原因。你刚开始觉得B正确是因为你没看懂选项。我看了3遍才猜到你可能错误理解成什么了。正确理解选项的意思是选对的必要条件。

又遇到一道比较无厘头的题，欢迎大家来讨论！
毕竟积累套路总是没错的嘛！

Theater Critic: The play La Finestrina, now at Central Theater, was written in Italy in the eighteenth century. The director claims that this production is as similar to the original production as is possible in a modern theater. Although the actor who plays Harlequin the clown gives a performance very reminiscent of the twentieth-century American comedian Groucho Marx, Marx’s comic style was very much within the comic acting tradition that had begun in sixteenth-century Italy.

The considerations given best serve as part of an argument that

A modern audiences would fi nd it hard to tolerate certain characteristics of a historically accurate performance of an eighteenth-century play

B Groucho Marx once performed the part of the character Harlequin in La Finestrina

C in the United States the training of actors in the twentieth century is based on principles that do not differ radically from those that underlay the training of actors in eighteenth-century Italy

D the performance of the actor who plays Harlequin in La Finestrina does not serve as evidence against the director’s claim

E the director of La Finestrina must have advised the actor who plays Harlequin to model his performance on comic performances of Groucho Marx

这道题的魅力在于读完以后让人不知所云，但是仔细分析以后又觉得十分巧妙。
题干里用了一种：预知可能被反驳的点，然后对槽点进行合理填坑，使得自己的argument天衣无缝！

Some species of Arctic birds are threatened by recent sharp increases in the population of snow geese, which breed in the Arctic and are displacing birds of less vigorous species. Although snow geese are a popular quarry for hunters in the southern regions where they winter, the hunting season ends if and when hunting has reduced the population by five percent, according to official estimates. Clearly, dropping this restriction would allow the other species to recover.

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

A Hunting limits for snow geese were imposed many years ago in response to a sharp decline in the population of snow geese.

B It has been many years since the restriction led to the hunting season for snow geese being closed earlier than the scheduled date.

C The number of snow geese taken by hunters each year has grown every year for several years.

D As their population has increased, snow geese have recolonized wintering grounds that they had not used for several seasons.

E In the snow goose's winter habitats, the goose faces no significant natural predation.

这题刚开始看，一直不知道在说啥，但是你会发现5个选项都似乎跟答案不沾边，所以可以判断这是一道难题，难题一般都有不同于普通题的思路。
普通题可能会说snow geese 和别的鸟类有什么关系，导致他们的减少也会影响到别的鸟类数量！
所以这类题绝对不在这种方向，而在于题设中明确点名的词---restriction！
我们会考虑万一取消了restriction以后也没有什么效果或者万一取消了以后有反效果呢？
可是依旧没有相关答案。
此时应该再关注时间和空间轴所带来的提示---recent increase！
那我们要看这个increase是不是因为recent restriction带来的呢？结果发现B说到several years！！
BANG，答案出来了！也就是restriction进行了这么多年都没啥事，为啥现在就要取消呢？证明这次带来的威胁并不是由于所谓的restriction导致的，从而weaken了！

很好的一道题！积累就是进步！！！

一道蛮难的BF题！

Consumer advocate: it is generally true, at least in this state, that lawyers who advertise a specific service charge less for that service than lawyers who do not advertise. It is also true that each time restrictions on the advertising of legal services have been eliminated, the number of lawyers advertising their services has increased and legal costs to consumers have declined in consequence. However, eliminating the state requirement that legal advertisements must specify fees for specific services would almost certainly increase rather than further reduce consumer's legal costs. Lawyers would no longer have an incentive to lower their fees when they begin advertising and if no longer required to specify fee arrangements, many lawyers who now advertise would increase their fees.

In the consumer advocate's argument, the two portions in boldface play which of the following roles?

A The first is a generalization that the consumer advocate accepts as true; the second is presented as a consequence that follows from the truth of that generalization.

B The first is a pattern of cause and effect that the consumer advocate argues will be repeated in the case at issue; the second acknowledges a circumstance in which that pattern would not hold.

C The first is pattern of cause and effect that the consumer advocate predicts will not hold in the case at issue; the second offers a consideration in support of that prediction.

D The first is evidence that the consumer advocate offers in support of a certain prediction; the second is that prediction.

E The first acknowledges a consideration that weighs against the main position that the consumer advocate defends; the second is that position.

作者: zhangmengchen 时间: 2016-4-12 15:16
这个题，刚开始在读的时候一直以为consumer advocate后只有第一句话是consumer的观点，没想到其实后面整一段都是他的观点，所以可以看出他的态度是，先说了一个普遍的观点，然后推翻它，所以打心里，他是不认可however前面的，因此选择了C。所以有时候做题，并不是你不会，而是你不懂套路。

再一道BOLD FACE

Since it has become known that several of a bank's top executives have been buying shares in their own bank, the bank's depositors, who had been worried by rumors that the bank faced impending financial collapse, have been greatly relieved. They reason that since top executives evidently have faith in the bank's financial soundness, those worrisome rumors must be false. They might well be overoptimistic, however since corporate executives have sometimes bought shares in their own company in a calculated attempt to dispel negative rumors about the company's health.
In the argument given, the two boldfaced portions play which of the following roles?

A The first summarizes the evidence used in the reasoning called into question by the argument; the second states the counterevidence on which the argument relies.

B The first summarizes the evidence used in the reasoning called into question by the argument; the second is an intermediate conclusion supported by that evidence.

C The first is an intermediate conclusion that forms part of the reasoning called into question by the argument; the second is evidence that undermines the support for this intermediate conclusion.

D The first is an intermediate conclusion that forms part of the reasoning called into question by the argument; the second is the main conclusion of the argument.

E The first is an intermediate conclusion that forms part of the reasoning called into question by the argument; the second states a further conclusion supported by this intermediate conclusion.

Which of the following, if true, provides evidence that most logically completes the argument below?

According to a widely held economic hypothesis, imposing strict environmental regulations reduces economic growth. This hypothesis is undermined by the fact that the states with the strictest environmental regulations also have the highest economic growth. This fact does not show that environmental regulations promote growth, however, since ______.

A those states with the strictest environmental regulations invest the most in education and job training

B even those states that have only moderately strict environmental regulations have higher growth than those with the least-strict regulations

C many states that are experiencing reduced economic growth are considering weakening their environmental regulations

D after introducing stricter environmental regulations, many states experienced increased economic growth

E even those states with very weak environmental regulations have experienced at least some growth

作者: zhangmengchen 时间: 2016-4-14 18:16
这个题的重点在于environmental regulations promote growth，所以since就说这个increase跟environmental regulations没关系就行了，A点明了这一点，因为教育和职业培养属于第三产业，跟环境不沾边。
但是不得不说这题也不那么严密，谁说第三产业就跟环境条例完全不相关了？？所以很多人选了E，但是E错的地方在于gmat很容易出的一个迷惑点---差的怎么样，然后来说好的。就是对比不对等的情况，并不是坏的有什么表现，就会在同类事物上完全体现！！！

For the writers who first gave feudalism its name, the existence of feudalism presupposed the existence of a noble class. Yet there cannot be a noble class, properly speaking, unless both the titles that indicate superior, noble status and the inheritance of such titles are sanctioned by law. Although feudalism existed in Europe as early as the eighth century, it was not until the twelfth century, when many feudal institutions were in decline, that the hereditary transfer of legally recognized titles of nobility first appeared.

The statements above, if true, most strongly support which one of the following claims?

A To say that feudalism by definition requires the existence of a nobility is to employ a definition that distorts history

B Prior to the twelfth century, the institution of European feudalism functioned without the presence of a dominant class

C The fact that a societal group has a distinct legal status is not in itself sufficient to allow that group to be properly considered a social class

D The decline of feudalism in Europe was the only cause of the rise of a European nobility

E The prior existence of feudal institutions is a prerequisite for the emergence of a nobility, as defined in the strictest sense of the term

作者: zhangmengchen 时间: 2016-4-20 10:44
上面这道题是一个归纳总结题，这种题我过去很怕，但是现在根本不怕了，因为只要看懂其中的逻辑链就可以全部做对！所以这道题做错的同学，需要做的是多背单词多读书，你的问题目前还不出在gmat本身上，而是理解障碍！！
该题先说了：F是一个由某些作者提出的一个什么东西，但是是在假设noble class存在的情况下---yet（转折的点很重要）只有经过法律认可的class才是可以存在的----8世纪出现F，12世纪nobility才be recoginized by law。所以可以说F是先出现的，然后才有nobility。所以A就是对的-----nobility是F存在的prerequisite就是distort the history！！
