标题: 关于Palitito那道

For years the beautiful Renaissance buildings in Palitito have been damaged by exhaust from the many tour buses that come to the city. There has been little parking space, so most buses have idled at the curb during each stop on their tour, and idling produces as much exhaust as driving. The city has now provided parking that accommodates a third of the tour buses, so damage to Palitito's buildings from the buses' exhaust will diminish significantly.

Which of the following, if true, most strongly supports the argument?

(A) The exhaust from Palitito's few automobiles is not a significant threat to Palitito's buildings.

(B) Palitito's Renaissance buildings are not threatened by pollution other than engine exhaust.

(C) Tour buses typically spend less than one-quarter of the time they are in Palitito transporting passengers from one site to another.

(D) More tourists come to Palitito by tour bus than by any other single means of transportation.

(E) Some of the tour buses that are unable to find parking drive around Palitito while their passengers are visiting a site.

答案为C，我选了D。

请问nn，为什么C可以support观点呢？

一直想要在做题中体会lawyer所谓的“结论的特殊性和具体性”，但是发现没有领悟到这句话的精髓。可否请各位就这道题指点迷津！多谢多谢！

文中说： Palitito 没有停车位，所以旅游车就到处逛，逛的时候产生了好多废弃危害了Renaissance buildings

这个城市现在可以提供容纳1/3的旅游车停靠点了。所以对building的伤害大大的减少了（结论）

加强：C 说旅游车耗费了少于1/4的时间闲逛。

上文不是说了，闲逛带来废气嘛？？闲逛少了，废气少了，伤害少了。加强结论

D 无关选项。更多的人来这里乘坐其他交通工具和结论有关系嘛？

更过的人乘坐other transportation 就说明旅游车少了嘛？就说明旅游车闲逛少了嘛？显然是irrelevante。

加强：C 说旅游车耗费了少于1/4的时间闲逛。

但是要support的结论是对building的伤害大幅减少。而C选项只是说旅游车将游客从一个地方带到另一个地方花费的时间只占旅游时间的1/4不到，而原文没有提到原先旅游车发动起来的总时间，所以并没有说旅游车idle的时间比原来少很多，也就不能support排放废气比原来少的论点啊。

还是不明白。请各位指点一下吧！

理解有误～～～

transporting passengers from one site to another 的时间比原来少了1/4

most buses have idled at the curb during each stop on their tour

这里的idle就是在每个site 之间

我想旅行车又不是公交车，应该停的地方（site)就是指stop吧

open to discuss!

反复体会C选项：Tour buses typically spend less than one-quarter of the time they are in Palitito transporting passengers from one site to another，认为还是应该为

旅游车将游客从一个地方带到另一个地方花费的时间只占旅游时间的1/4不到

，只是，原文most buses have idled at the curb during each stop on their tour是不是从一个侧面说明原来旅游车必须一直处在运转状态呢？这样现在的“1/4不到”和以前的“一直都在运转”就有了对比了。难道原文表达意思有这么隐讳吗？还是我想太多了？

汗！好吃力啊！

原文most buses have idled at the curb during each stop on their tour是不是从一个侧面说明原来旅游车必须一直处在运转状态呢？

是的。

我就是这个意思啊mm 下次把字弄大点吧，我视力不是太好～～

C的意思应该是旅游车耗费了大于3/4的时间闲逛吧

A lot of people say that C is correct because:
If the tour buses only spend about 1/4 of the time on driving from 1 site to another, then it means that about 3/4 of the time, the buses will idle next to the building.
With a new parking lot, approximately 3/4 of the damage will go away because the buses will idle in the parking lot instead.

要是这么解释的话 E也对啊

C: BUSES 在少于总时间的1/4的时间里用来运送乘客，言下之意，BUSES有3/4 的时间用来闲逛，所以加强结论，建停车场会大大减少废气。

C强调的是idling的时间有四分之三——强调了闲逛的时间很长，如果减少这个闲逛时间，会大大减少exhaust
E说的是一些旅游巴士在找不到停车位的时候会去闲逛——没有说这个闲逛的时间是多久，而且E选项在原文中已经有陈述了：'so most buses have idled at the curb during each stop on their tour'

同意！

能不能解释一下B为什么不对啊

作者: bubuM 时间: 2018-5-31 15:43
这道题比较难分辨的选项是C 和 E，
E是典型的trap answer 我也选错了后来在国外GMAT论坛看到了解释

some most 出现都很小心，这里的some 我们不知道多少如果只是5% 10%的bus这样，似乎对于减少损害的帮助就很小。所以不能用作为+加强选项，但也不是- 削弱选项哦。

作者: ASHELY36 时间: 2019-6-11 10:20
如果bus 在Palitito's 的时间是20小时的话，根据C选项的是意思就是，Drive 的时间是5小时，idling 的时间是15小时。所以有了停车场后，ilding 的时间没了，Bus只有在drive 的那5小时产生废气，原来是20小时都产生废气

作者: 小小豆豆酱 时间: 2020-4-16 18:52
E选项除了some有问题之外，其实并没有提供除了题干之外的信息，只是再重复argument中的内容。起不到加强作用
