This decline has meant that the overall figure on which the city’s property tax is based—the assessed value of that real estate—has also declined. Moreover, the percentage of assessed value that was paid as property taxes to the city did not change during this period.
The information above most strongly supports which of the following?
A.Money collected from property taxes provided most of Altonville’s revenue during the past four years.
B.The percentage of Altonville’s overall revenue that was collected from property taxes did not change over the past four years.
C.Altonville officials had proposed raising property tax rates during the past four years but never did so because of strong opposition from property owners.
D.The total amount of revenue that Altonville has collected from property taxes has declined over the past four years.
E.During the past four years, Altonville officials also did not increase tax rates on other sources of revenue such as retail sales or business profits.

你遇到的两次不是同一种问法，貌似一个是归纳题，一个是演绎题。 这道是归纳题，因为房地产的价值下降，同时税率又没有变（the percentage of assessed value that was paid as property taxes to the city did not change ）所以，政府税收的revenue会减少。D 注意：题目问的是The information above most strongly supports which of the following? 是问结论的，不是支持体作者: everbabe 时间: 2010-9-13 09:09
题目： market value 在最近四年下降了，说明assessed value 下降了。 property taxes 是按照assessed value乘以一个百分比来算的，这个百分比没变。 其实可以推出来property taxes下降啦。 D就是这个意思咯。作者: ck0205 时间: 2010-9-13 09:16
税源 market value of real estate in Altonville 下降，而the assessed value of that real estate 税率没变，所以来自房地产的税收就会下降 也就是说总量下降了，个体占总量的百分比没变，所以个体也下降了作者: serenashu 时间: 2010-9-13 12:32
