It seems that players for this game had problem for question 1.  It asks what is a correct list she vote AGAINST.
作者: taoransk    时间: 2010-12-5 16:13
Not sure if these are correct but, seems not working for me -.-


7 bills: DEFGHIJ
-- G(O)-->E(X) ==> E(O)-->G(X) ==> G(O)-->E(X)-->J(O)-->I(X)          
-- I(O)-->J(X) ==> J(O)-->I(X) ==> I(O)-->J(X)-->E(O)-->G(X)-->H/D(X)
-- Must have E/J/(E&J) ==> E(X)-->J(O) ==> E(X)-->J(O)-->I(X)
                          J(X)-->E(O) ==> J(X)-->E(O)-->G(X)-->H/D(X)
-- H&D(O)-->G(O) ==> G(X)==>H/D(X)

Thus:  
G(O)-->I&E(X)        ==> I/E(O)-->G(X)
I(O)-->J&G(X)+H/D(X) ==> J/G/(H&D)(O)-->I(X)

sacar, I think that the answers to No。1和 no.7 are opposite. My answer is
1. C
2. C
3. B
4. C
5. D
6. B
7. E
for No.1 She votes for the gun control bill only if she votes against the environment bill.  That means she cannot  vote for neither gun control nor environmental . E cannot be the correct answer.

She votes for the gun control bill only if she votes against the environment bill.

The phrase "only if" introduces a necessary condition.

If she votes for the gun control bill, then she votes against the environment bill.   For gun control --> Against environ.
The contrapositive would be: If she votes for the environment bill, then she votes against the gun control bill.  For environ --> Against gun control

Obviously, voting FOR both gun control and environment bills is forbidden.

However, she CAN vote AGAINST both gun control bill and environment bill at the same time. To put it another way, there is no trigger for the logic chain of either
Against gun control bill --> ?? or Against environment bill --> ??. These two AGAINST conditions are not mutually exclusive.

Choice E in question (1) is against the following restriction:
She votes for the gun control bill if she votes for both the health care bill and the defense bill.

Gun control bill has to be in the against list if both health care bill and defense bill are therein.

about the 5th question.

1.if she votes for immigration law, means she is voting  against J.

2.Since voting for G means voting against E.

1+2 means, she votes against both E and J. which against she has to vote for E or J or both.

the correct answer is E.
she votes for G means against E. since either E or J. means she has to vote for J means she has to vote against I.

question 4.

what about just voting against E and I? vote for DFGHJ?

You misunderstood the following condition:
Unless she votes against the judicial activism bill, she will vote for the immigration bill.

The above statement equals "if J, then I; if NOT I, then NOT J"

Think about it.  It is very important you become familiar with the UNLESS/WITHOUT clauses in logic games.

-- by 会员 baileys2010 (2011/1/14 15:52:47)





When E is out, I and J are in.

For this question, when I is out, J is out, then E is in, then G is out.  So you have at least 3 out: I, J, G.

Thanks a lot. I am quite new with these games.
作者: 小cvv    时间: 2012-1-4 15:55

and when G is out, at least one of the H or D is out, coz:

She votes for the gun control bill if she votes for both the health care bill and the defense bill.

so I think shoule be C for Q4
at least I, J, G, H or D

LS is right.  My explanation is kind of misleading.
