hi, I just tried to answer 20 and 23, but I am not sure 18.

No20

CAUSE:abolish taxes ——》RESULTS: 1. real taxpayers 's disposable incomes increase. 2. public employees 's income disappear.

THIS POINTS OUT THAT REAL TAXPAYERS AND PUBLIC EMPLOYEES ARE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.

But in logic relationship, we can't say if the CAUSE IS WRONG, THEN THE RESULTS IS INCORRECT. but we say IF THE RESULTS ARE INCORRECT, THEN THE CAUSE IS WRONG.

No23:

my tricks is to find the comparative subjects and the comparative objects in two sentences, no more decorative words

and other new terms appear.
